Bake sales and church bazaars seem to have 8 perennial claim on the calendar between Thanks giving and Christmas.
 Cakes, nut bread, rolls, buns and fancy cookies and wafers are al- ways popular. This year when every one is practicing economy the contributors to the bake sale must use economical recipes. Yet the woman whose bread. cakes and cookies have made the cash regis ter ring a profit every year does not want to sacrifice product to economy. Nor need she do 1t. In recipes that call for milk she can practice economy and at the same time obtain most satisfactory results. by using avaporated milk.
 An added advantage in using evaporated milk as the main milk supply Is it's ease and uniformity of souring. Many housewives prefer bread and cakes made with sour milk or sour cream because of the moist, tender product. Even at that though there's always an es-- ment of doubt about the e:,act sourness of the milk and the exact amount of milk and the exact amount of soda needed to prevent that ''soda taste" One tablespoon of vinegar added to cup of con- centrated evaporated milk pro- duces sour cream while table, spoon of vinegar added to 1-2 cup of evaporated milk mixed With 1-2 cup of water gives sour milk. Whether the milk or cream IS used 1-2 teaspoon of soda is required, unless extra molasses or fruits are added.
 This date cake made with sour evaporated milk will be good dollar butler at your next bake sale. It is one of the inexpensive yet attractive contributions that may take the place of the more elaborate fruit cakes. The fruit improves the keeping qualities as well as adds to its good taste and nutritive value.

 Combinations
BACON AND TOMATOES

There are times when meal plan- ming becomes a particular chore, usually because we have run the gamut of attractive dishes and feel ourselves getting into a rut. Then our first thought is Why doesn't someone invent something new in food, especially meats? Steaks, chops, pot roasts.' How often do we forgot that in the refrigerator Is carton of bacon, that is just like q bag of new tricks for really 1t Is full of possibilities for delicious ly, tempting main dishes, not only for breakfast but luncheon and dinner. So the next time that you don't know what to serve for luncheon or dinner, remember the recipes that I have prepared for you-the best way to remember them is to clip and paste each on a card or in your scrap book.
 But before stating the recipes, let me tell you something about bacon. There are of course many kinds and grades, but when you purchase carton bacon put out by reputable company like Armour anu CoiHpdhy, you dhc uoSuAcu V. the finest, sweetest sugar cured bacon the market affords. The bacon is carefully selected and cured in sugar cure and then delicately smoked to give that de- Iightful tang we all like in quality bacon. And when you cook these tasty slices remember that sugar burns readily and that is why one should always place the slices in cold skillet over low heat, turn ing the bacon Frequently to per

Some Prefer Chocolate
 Pie For Thanksgiving

The formula for genufne Thanksgiving dinner calls for roast turkey and flaky pie. While the sturdy mince or pumpkin pie are traditional, many hostesses have discovered that their guests would prefer a more delicate culminatiop to an already long and heavy meal. A favorite substitute among them is chocolate pie, which is as trur ly American in it's history as is Thanksgiving Day itself.

Hopes to MoIIify French

Secretary of State Stimsor will
decline to discuss finance with
the German statesmen when he
arrives in Berlin tomorrow, he in,
formed Acting Secretary Of State
Castle over the transatlantic
telephone today before leaving
London for the German capital.
That Secretary Stimson will
continue efforts begun at Paris to
bring the French and Germans
into friendlier relationship, is ex-
pected here.
There we're indications at the
State Department that Colonel
Stimson will not abandon what
was conceived in Administration
circles as his biggest job at the
London conference. Little op-
portunity was offered there.
But the need to effect q rap
prcchement between France and
Germany stiH exists.
Failure of the seven-power con-
ference TO produce a permanent
solution of Germany'S financial
difficulties intensifies the neces-
sity for earnest efforts during
the next few months.

JOLIET CONVICT
THROWS BOMB

JOLIET, Ill, July "a GN.S).
A gasoline bomb, first evidence
of a threatened riot at State
vile penitentiary, was hurled at
the feet of guards today as they
were searching a cellhouse in the
prison.
The bomb did not explode.
The guards had just begun their
search of the cells for weapons
when an unknown convict in a
cell in the top tier of cellhouse c
tossed the bomb.
Capt. Fred Newkirk, acting
>dabnty warden in charge of the
Investigation, said the bomb had
been constructed for the purpose
of throwing it into a fire to make
it explode.
About 10 feet from the bomb
guards found a brass tube, smell
ing of gasoline, which Captain
Newkirk declared was being fash
ioned into a torch when the
search halted work on it.
Two knives and bits of food
also were thrown on the floor as
the convictS attempted to frus-
trate the search for the leaders
in the plot.
Talks to Prisoners
Informed of the bomb, Warden
Henry C. Hill stopped the search
to plead with the convictS through
the loud speakers installed in
all buildings of the prison. He
said:
at is my belief that about 80
per cent of the inmates want to
go along with the officers Of this
institution. You want to return
to your families and friends.
"YOur safety has been threat
ened by a few inmates during
the last few weeks. You will
have to stay in your cells for a
few days until officers search
the institution from wall to wall.

0N.S0.-The situation in San
tiago, Chile, where 500 casualties
already have resulted from clashes
between revolutionary elements
and police, is growing more seri-
GUS hourly, international News
Service learned this afternoon by
telephone from the Chilean capt.
tai. New disturbances of a seri-
Gus nature are expected.
Ibanez Won't Yield
President Ibanez, against whom
the demonstrations are directed,
was reported as announcing this
morning he would die before
yielding to the efforts to remove
him from office.
"A ceneQKshiE has been clamped
down on all te1egraphic commune
cations from Chile.
Most of the injured yesterday
were civilians who were clubbed
by police as they surged through
the streets of Santiago shouting
Down with President Ibanez!"
Attack Expected
Serious fighting was expected
momentariIy as cara5ineerS pre-
pared to attack 1900 students
who had transformed a univer-
sity building into q fort.
A new cabinet, headed by
Senior Carlos, FrOedden, friend of
President Ibanez, was attempting
to maintain order today. 1t sue
ceeded the cabinet Of Senior
FranciSO' Garces Cana, which re.
signed yesterday after serving
only a day. That cabinet had
succeeded another which had it.
self been formed only eight days
previously. '- d..
Heavily-armed troops occupied
the center Of Santiago today and
it appeared that the army was
still loyal to the President. If it
continued so. it seemed likely
today that Ibanez would emerge
from the struggle as dictator.
Students Riot
However, doubt is expressed
that the President can maintain
his position. Former President
Allesandri and his family, who
were exiled sat various times by
Ibanez, are here waiting for an
opportunity to return to Chile.
OutburstS against the Ibanez
regime were reported from other
sections of Chile. Workmen and
students at Valparaiso clashed
with police during rioting in that
