Considerably Lower.

Making Leftovers Attractive.
et others sing he old-fashioned
goodness of the homemade loaf of
bread; H. H. Hayncs, president of the
Oregon Bakers Association, told Port
land housewives at the Central Library
yesterday that it cannot compare, eith
er In wholesomeness or food value, with
the factory-made product.
The homemade article, baked by the
housewife, is, he said, less nutritious
than the loaf the baker makes.- It con
tains, he asserted, fewer calories, or
heat units. Besides, it has not such
pood texture, is not so toothsome, nor
is it so well baked. Materials in the
kitchen-made loaf of broad, he de
clared, are Inferior to those entering
into the bakery-made article.
"There le only one desirable element
that enters into the homemade loaf '.hat
the bakery product cannot claim," he
said. "This is the love and affection put
into it by the housewife.
Psychology Is Admitted.
"There is. however, a bit of psychol
ogy in the eight of the homemade loaf
that may make it more digestible for
the husband than the article purchased
at the store. The head of the family
pees that loaf, the product of his wife's
fair hands, and he fairly beams ana
says to himself:
""Mary made that bread; she is
dandy housewife. God bless her eoul;
she is the perfect housekeeper." "
Mr. Haynes was asked to speak be
fore Hhe gathering of Portland house
keepers on the subject tf whether t
housewife "an save any money by bak
ing her own bread. He said she could
save one cent an hour by doing the
work of baking herself, but he declared
later that the cost of the homemade
loaf is approximately 6 1-3 cents, while
a better loaf can be bought at any gro
cery Btore for 5 cents.
Mr. Haynes emphasized the fact that
bread as turned out of large bakeries
by improved and modern machinery is
the ultimate of sanitary, wholesome
food. The smaller chops, he said, that
follow the old-fashioned handmade
prooesees, are of necessity less cleanly
in their work. Although he did not say
so. he inferred that the average kit
chen takes on somewhat the character
of the smaller bakeries.
llest Materials Used.
The speaker said the bakeries use
better materials In their bread than
the housewife. The quality of flour, he
said, is better than the home baker
uses, being blended with the object in
view of a perfect loaf of bread. Various
ingredients are put into the dough that
the housewife never uses at all.
Mr. Haynes said Portland people are
fretting a larger loaf of bread for 5
cents than the war market justifies.
The Portland loaf, for example, is con
Biderably larger than the loaf sold by
the Tacoma bakeries.
Mrs. C. B. Simmons, acting president.
was In the chair at yesterday after
noons Tneeting. The gathering was
under the auspices of the Portland
Woman's Club, which has taken this
means of furthering good housekeeping
and homemaking by seeking way out
of the high cost of living problem. Fu
ture meetings to discuss other features
of the situation will be held at Inter
valt of two weeks at Library Hall.
Leftovers" Are Discussed.
Mrs. J. I. Spencer spoke on utilizing
lef tovers." She mentioned a number
of appetizing ways to prepare meat
and other remnants from the previous
day's meals .and there were many
housewives busy taking notes as the
talk proceeded.
Mrs. Spencer not only told what use
could be made of leftover meats, but
she described in detail the exact way
to cook them so as to get the best re
suits. Utensils and the technique of
skillful cookerr were described.
Mrs. A. King Wilson spoke briefly of

Bennett a Near-Victim.
t
There is an Inside story concerning
the new American-Mutual drama "And
the Law Says." written by Richard
Bennett, one ofthe best-known actors
in America. '
Just how it all happened is not
known, but this much Bennett admits
that he came within an ace of being
made the victim of circumstance and
ruined for life when he was a young
fellow in college.
Bennett says he told the story only
once, in all its detail. That was to
Adrlenne Morrison, who is now Mrs.
Bennett. It had to do with the al
leged presence of a certain man at a
certain place at a certain time, and
of the disappearance of certain Exami
nation papers.
'All the fellows investigating tnis
mysterious robbery, were law stu
dents," said Bennett. "They all had
the same hidebound ideas of what cir
cumstantial evidence was worth. We
have the same sorts of fellows with
the same sorts of ideas sitting in the
courts of this country today, and be
cause of this there are many hundreds
of men in the penitentiaries to whom
the bench and bar owe apologies. If
it hadn't been for an apparently trivial
thing which proved the contrary, I
mighty haVe been held guilty of theft,
because the circumstances arrayed
against me were so convincing that I
wondered if I hadn't been walking in
my sleep." 'p.

For six days before the advance in
the Somme battle the camera men
were in the first-line trenches. They
sought out the points of the greatest
danger. To get their pictures their
cameras had to be above the level of
the parapet, so that, when a sneu came
over, .a picture of the explosion could
be taken wherever it mignt land.
One man found a spot somewnat pro
tected by a pile of sandbags; when ne
returned to it with his came, a tne
saniihaca were gone; in their place was
a. nastv eaping hole, made by a Ger
man shell. So the photographer calmly
clambered down into the hole, and from
there was fortunate enough to secure
a wonderful picture of the explosion

trenches.

Another man was caught by a fierce
