His enemies scoffed at him, but the
skins of the scoffers were used to
bind the second edition of the book"
There is something everlastingly-
true in the great aphorisims of the
race, Truth will out, Truth crushed
to earth will rise again, No lie can
last forever, He laughs best who
laughs last. That is one reason why
l believe in God, because there is
something in this universe greater
than ourselves that makes for
righteousness. Say your worst about
the world, it is the kind of a world
where never yet has any Hitler

scoffers have gone to bind the sec
ond editions of the book.
If we are going to be true to the
soldier boys who died in France
we can do no less than to carry on

public in our day is to straighten up
our own household so as to show
those dictators that democracy in
the United States of America does
work.

Soap Was a By-Product of
Ancient Roman Sacrifices

Soap is as old as ancient Rome,
although it did not come into COM
mon use for many centuries there
after Everybody knows that soap
is cleansing agent. but to this
day there is dispute as to just how
soap cleans, says the Philadelphia
Record. The process was once be-
lieved to be chemical, but the scien-
tifc theory is that soap removes the
greasy particles of dirt by emulsi-
flying the oil that holds them in
place. That is, the soap causes the
oils to separate into minute globules
which nTg WITH the water and ar
carried off by it.
In ancient Rome, when burnt of
ferings were made on Sappo hill,
the animal fats mingled with the
sacrificial ashes, and were washed
down the hill into the river. The
women of Rome found the river
near the foot of Sappo hill best for
washing clothes. For a long time
this was a mystery, but finally
someone put two and two together,
and found that it was soap-named
for Sappo-and composed basically
of two ingredients, fat and an alkali.
Fats are either animal or vege-
table. Fat is chemical compound
of glycerin with one or more fatty
acids. The alkalies used in soap
making are either caustic potash,
which yields soft soap, or caustic
soda, which gives the ordinary hard
soap.

Founded Quaker Sect

George Fox was 10 when he felt
the call to preach which resulted in
his arrest for disturbing the peace
and his establishment of the Society
of Friends (Quakers). Priests,
lawyers and soldiers were all OBJ
noxious to him." says a biographer.
Consequently, every type of perse-
cution was practiced on the sect in
England and the American col
onies; for long time it was a
worse crime to be a Quaker than
thief William Penn was jailed
because he was a Quaker; this in
duced him to come to America.
Numbers of Quaker men were put
to death in Massachusetts; in New
Hampshire Quaker women were
stripped and whipped from one
town to another, for Quakers were
the first to acknowledge the equality
of men and women in religion and
allow women to preach.

poverty. THE beginnings they made
were crude, of course, but they be-
gan to see way back there that Pow
erty is unnecessary in the modern
age of Machinery"
Or finally these survivors of ours
may say that this was the time
when war became so obviously sui
cidal both to the vanquished and
the victors, that despite the war
madness of the government, more
millions of plain people came over
to passionate desire for peace in
one generation than had been the
case for thousand years before.
Whatever our children's children
say about us, the essential problem
which we face is this, that in the
years from the early 18th century
to the early 10th century man has
had put into his hands the most
amazing scientific inventions the
world has ever known, more power
than man ever had to handle before,
and at the same time while we are
struggling with the problems of
how to handle all this new power,
something else has happened All
the worlds tribes and tongues, all
the peoples and races who only a
century ago were living separately
are now crowded together one on
top of the other, so that what hap
pens anywhere happens every
where. And what can you expect
from the operation of two such
factors-all this new power, and this
new world neighborhood? They
present the most amazing possibili-
ties that mankind has ever had, but
they bring also dangerous and IT,
tanic problems.
These men whose life and death
we honor here today have had a
part IN this historic process, A few
short years ago they marched forth
in good faith to make the world
safe for democracy. Do you recall
the words with which President
Wilson SO thrilled them as they
started off? Then force, force with
out limit, force that will make right
the law of the world said the
President. Force without limit was
an experiment. That experiment
had to be made. And the soldiers
of the A. E. F. are the ones who
did it and they did it we'll, many
of them contributing to it their very
lives, just as doctors have given
their lives in experimenting with
deadly diseases.
Let us hope that we do not have
to do that experiment over again:
it is too costly. At any rate | can
say this, that there is no imaginable
war that can come out of that game
of power they are playing now in
Europe where America in the long
run will not make its best con-
tribution TO democracy by staying
out.
There is only one more thing I
want to say, and that is in regard to
this idea of freedom. Freedom all
too often means freedom to do
nothing We take freedom as an ex-
cuse for Sinking our responsibility.
You and / have freedom now only
because we are heirs of the past. It
has been bought and paid for by
just such men as these we honor
here today. 1t is our duty to main
tain it.

group of his friends in a dishearten-

OBLIGATIONS OF THE
ENGAGED

Dear Mrs. Post: I'm engaged TO
be married although no date has
been set for the wedding. At
Christmas some friends of my
fiance's mother, whom ] have met,
hiyited the two of them to spend
Christmas day at their house. My
fiance's father is not alive and his
brothers and sisters live far away.
l was not invited, and while I do
have a family, felt that at least
/ should have been allowed to de-
eide with whom l preferred to
spend the day. / let the incident
pass. however. without making
any to-do about II, but now these
same friends have asked my fiance
and his mother to spend next Sun
day, and on this particular day l
certainly had hoped to be with
my fiance. 1t is his birthday. Is
there any stand may take now,
or perhaps should take now, to let
him know how l feel about always
being left out ? Isn't 1t true that
a mans fiancee is supposed to be
invited whenever he is?
Answer: II your engagement has
been announced. then you should
be asked with your fiance. If your
engagement has not been an
nounced then that of course is
another matter. 1t may be that
his mother is relinquishing him
with bad grace and that she is
making the situation an awkward
one for him. Or, on the other hand,
maybe he is merely unaware that
it is expected that his fiancee be
invited with him and his mother
wherever they are asked. In any
case you would be quite within
your rights to ask him if he real
ICES that he seems to take his en-
gagement very casually.

Popular
Recipes

Several readers ask, What goes
into bread -
That question has been care
fully answered by Consumers
Guide. published by the Office Of
the Consumers Counsel in Wash
ington. Part Of the answer is
/ printed below.
Flour makes up about 81 per
cent of the weight Of a loaf. Some
four-fifths of the bread bought by
the American public is made of
white flour, most of which is
bleached or aged by artificial
means.
Difference of opinion exists as
to whether or not bleaching af-
fects the nutritive value of flour.
The position of the Food and Drug
Administration is that, provided
the added chemicals cannot be
shown to be harmful or to injure
the quality or conceal inferiority,
bleaching is not a violation of the
Food and Drugs Act.
Two other kinds of flour most
widely used are whole wheat and
rye. The flour constituent of
bread labeled as whole wheat or
graham and sold in interstate
commerce must, under Federal
Food and Drug regulations, be
composed entirely of whole wheat
flour. The usual loaf of rye bread
is a mixture of rye and wheat
flours, with sometimes more than
half wheat. Only a small amount
of bread, known as pumpernickel,
is made of 100 per cent rye flour
or meal.
Liquid Is Important
Next important ingredient in
bread is liquid. The liquid in most
commercial bread is part water
and part milk, the proportion of
each varying with the formula. In
French and Vienna bread only wa
ter Is used, while standard milk
bread must be made with milk or
with milk solids and water in the
| proportions normal to milk.
Bakers who put milk into their
bread usually use powdered skim
milk, both because of its cheap
ness and the east with which it
may be mixed with the other in
gradients. It is a wholesome prod
uct which contains all the food
virtues of liquid skim milk except
/ Vitamin c. Like liquid skim milk,
it lacks the fat and Vitamin A of
whole milk.
Yeast, sWeetening and shorten
ing complete the principal ingre-
dents of bread. Sweetening, when
present, may be either sugar or
malt, or a combination of both.
1t is difficult to know what
shortcomings are used in m t
breads. because bakers guard their
formulas carefully, but lard or a
cottonseed oil shortening are prob
ably the choice of most.
Most nutritionists agree that
people who cannot afford ade-
quate amounts of fruits, vegeta-
bles, milk and eggs-food rich in
votamins and minerals but, unfor-
tunately, comparatively expensive
had best include good proper
ton of whole grain cereal prod
ucts. Others who can afford to
include in their diet adequate
amounts of these mineral and vita
min-rich foods may select that
bread which appeals most to their
taste.
