years civilian bread consumption at
times has dropped to around four
slices daily.
Flour Production Steady.
Although bread, chief of unra-
toned foods, should be a major
beneficiary in the wartime diet, ex-
perts expect no revival OF bread
eating to proportions that prevailed
in the American family before the
last war, when parents and kids took
up two or three slices each per
meal and topped it off with cake
and pie.
The milling industry expects to
regain only part of the share of
each persons diet lost during the
period of popularity growth of many
other foods, dieting fads and de-
preston. Actually the amount of
-four milled and bread and bakery
products produced commercially and
at home has remained about the
same but as population increased
consumption per capita declined.

In 1887 Mr.. Teagle resigned after
20 years as president of Jersey

AS president of the company, Mr.
Parish was called upon to explain
before Senate committee the
agreement of 1927 between Stand
ard Oil and I. G. Farbenindustrie
of Germany, under which the two
companies made certain pools OF
patents. The agreement had been
sharply criticized. and charges had
been made that the development
of synthetic rubber in this country
had been delayed because of it.
On the stand, Mr.. Parish issued
categorical denial of the charges
and in testifying before the Senate
Patents Committee last August
asserted that "the United States
got more from Germany than Ger
many ever received from U.S."

Baking Business Good.
Because Of its relative cheapness
and comparatively stable price,
which even wide fluctuations in the
value of wheat in the past has af-
fected to only small extent, bread
is a food which many consumers
will turn in order to maintain their
calory intake, market experts said.
The baking trade. which normally
sells more Of its products in hot
weather than in cold, due partly to
diminished home baking, is antici-
pating a much less than usual sea-
sonal slump this winter. The in
creasing number of women in war
work will be factor in this.

At their regular meeting, last
Tuesday night, the women of the
Minneapolis Urban League Aux
iliary listened to very interesting
talk by Mrs. Frances Brown, men,
Der of the Speakers Bureau of the
Minneapolis Defense Council. Mrs.
Browns address dealt largely with
the preparations made by the vari-
GUS branches of the Defense Council
against the hazards to which the
city might be exposed in the event
of an enemy attack. Valuable in
formation concerning the intricate
set-up of the Council was gained
from this excellent address, ar

through the Program Committee of
the Auxiliary under the Chairman

Bed Need
One of the local welfare organi-
cations has sought the assistance
of the Auxiliary in locating a bed
for a child confined to the Lyman
hurst Cardiac Clinic. The child can
not be removed from the Clinic I'M
til a bed is found for him, since it
is necessary that he occupy a bed
to himself. The Auxiliary is MAX
ing an appeal to the public for help
in this instance, and will appreciate
hearing from anyone who has a
single bed, with or without mat
tress, that he can spare to this
needy and deserving family. Please
call Mrs. E. L. Sims, Pl. 1886, or

Woman Visitor
Dies i'm st. Paul

Mrs. Frank Parker, age So, of
Oklahoma City, who has been in
the city for about four weeks, died
on Tuesday at 666 Rondo Ave-,
where she was rooming at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. "Lefty"
Davis. Mrs. Parker came to visit
her son and daughter-in-law, Mr..
and Mrs. Frank Parker, who have
been in the city only a short time
because Mr.. Parker's employment
moved him from Oklahoma City
where they were living.
The body will be shipped to Okla
homa City for burial under the
direction of Neal-McGavock Flu
neral Home.
She is also survived by another
daughter, of Chicago, a sister, Mrs.

of doing it. Marriage wouldn't
change his ways, either. If you
make the change and go to the city
you have in mind, look for a job
and don't make this same mistake
again. That applies to your rela-
tiOnship with this other party you
are interested in. Don't accept any
bargain other than marriage in the
future.
I. D. D.: I taught school for 10
years and made we'll until two
years ago. Somehow, I have been
unable to secure means to care for
my family or make a decent living.
What little I make now doesn't do
me any good, as it passes through
my hands. Please sum my case up
and tell me what to do.
Ans: Teaching methods change
every year. A good teacher must
attend summer school at regular
intervals in order to keep up with
the modern trend of education. You
failed to improve yourself and that
is why you lost out as a teacher.
If you want to renew your license
and teach again, you must attend
summer school. There is another
thought l wish to convey you
are living above your means. You
can't borrow your way out of debt.
You must economic and pay off
your old Indebtedness and then you
will be in a position to save and
realize what you make. Until you
do, you can't make any Roadway.
B. H. R.: My affairs have be-
come so serious. 1 can't hold a
half-hand with any girl. I don't
know if it is my clothes or my
ways. Please tell me.
Ans: When a boy fails to get
a date with any girl it is invari-
ably his fault. Do you take your
date to the movies? Do you ar
range any form of entertainment?
Or are you the type that insists
on pinching pennies and spending
the evening in her parlor petting
and feel that she should be
iattered at the opportunity. Your
clothes are all right and you look
well enough, too, but your approach
is strictly out of the groove.

MTTTEE MEMBERS LAUDED
The success of the Negro group
in the Festival of Nations exhibit
ton held in St. Paul early in May
was due in a large part to the hard
work of the committees under Mrs.
Mary D. Mcfarland, 493 Whiteall
St., general chairman, who was as
sisted by Mrs. Carrie Robertson.
The Festival of Nations is an ad-
venture in friendliness in which
5000 men, women and children of

rection of John M. Whitaker with
Zachary T. Munson, baritone,
Alma Freeman, soprano, and
George Saunders, tenor, singing
the leads, Corinne Powell common
tating, and the Modern Dance
Group of Minneapolis, dancing.
Outstanding among the exhibits
was the work of Gordon Parks,
photographer and artist, and
Henry Bannarn, artist, both for
merly of Minneapolis.
Other committee chairmen and
members include: Mrs. Tessie So
MON, chairman, Market Committee,
with Mrs. Viola Munson, assistant

America, we thrived and grew on
American soil, we are Americans,
too; may we ever stand true to our
God and to our Native Land" and
