The origin of leavened bread is lost
in antiquity, antedating Biblical times,
and was probably accidental, as were
so many foods and other discoveries.
At first flour grinding was done be-
tween two stones. then in mortar
with a pestle Before men learned how
to make ovens. bread was baked on
hot surfaces and was made in thin
cakes like Mexican tortilids Hence the
expression breaking of bread -
for in early times bread was broken,
not cut.

the moment Rocky swung over the
boards the Red Line stepped into high
gear. 1t was even better than I'd
imagined. The Rhodes-Edmond-
Decker combine clicked together as
naturals again. sweeping dead team
to life.
The Panthers carried the fight to
the Indians. They tore into them,
ripped through their forward line,
pounded the defense. Again and again
the puck rained in on the goalie. They
almost scored a half dozen times. The
Blond Bullet was everywhere, stick
handling. back-checking, leading every
attack. 1t was more than hockey to
him. He was out there to stage come
back; to rid the club of CARING for
good and all.
The Indians fought like fools, but
nothing could stop the Panthers. The
fans shrieked themselves hoarse as
Rocky took lightning pass from
Decker. He side-stepped a slashing
defense man, pulled back his stick and
shot. The goalie threw himself across
the opening barely in time. The rubber
smashed into his belly protector, re-
bounded. Edmond diyed in, scooped
up the loose disk and rif1ed it squarely
into the goal. A tie!

James Hilton, the good looking

jobs better If they understood more
about the technique Of picture max
ing.
Hilton's time is very much taken
up these days watching, for the first
time, production Of one of his works.
Unfamiliarity with the mechanics
of the set apparently never ham,
pered him. Each of his three previ-
GUS efforts was an outstanding sue
cess. His first was Knight Without

1T seems to me-" he says, that
writer's are given far too little chance
to get out on the set. They are shut
up in Offices and told to write. It's
my idea that they can write more
intelligently If they know the
mechanics of making pictures and
understand the problems of actors,
directors, cameramen and techni-
clans.

benefits represent only half-pay,
they do tide a man over until he
is employed again - they help
him keep his head up both in his

In discussing the old-age insur-

the security of the family is en-
phasiZed in what a man builds up
for himself and his wife and chill
dren during his working years;
the security that goes on when he
is too old to work; the security
that doesn't vanish when he dies.
Recent amendments to the Social
Security Act have extended this
system to tack care of a workers
dependents and survivors. After
1910 retired workers who are in
sured will receive monthly bene-
fits not only for themselves but
also for their wives and dependent
children. Similar benefits are pro-
vided for widows, orphans and de-
pendent parents of insured work

WHAT'S WHAT ABOUT
SOCIAL SECURITY

In a recent radio interview, Paul
V. McNutt. Administrator of the
Federal Security Agency, discuss
ed the aim and purpose of the six
agencies comprising the big organ
ization which he directs = the So

Employment Service, the Office of
Education, the Public Health Serv-
ice, National Youth Administration
and the Civilian Conservation
Corps. He explained that while
each of these important agencies
work independently to serve diff
ferent needs, all of them work to-
gether in building greater secur-
ity. AS an example he mentioned
the Public Health Service which
is concerned with the preservation
and promotion of health for all
citizens, and the Social Security
Board which provides aid for the
needy.
He explained that security for
the worker is promoted through
two services now coordinated I'M

survivors continue to receive bene-
fits he has earned for them.
Mr.. McNutt declared that the
framework of securitp has been

lationships involved = between
