E. E . McVicker, pastor of M oro Presbyterian church, preaching the Baccalaure ate sermon. The subject of the sermon was “ The Inner W a ll,” based on an incident in the Dutch- Spanish war and the saving to the Dutch of one of their principal cities when nearly captured by the Spaniards because of their hasty and effective construction > of an “ inner wall” when the outer one had almost been breached by the battering rams of the Spaniards. M r.

One of the ranchers, better known for his pigs than his piety, had been in specting the decorations.

I can't place him .” The man was indicating a copy of a famous painting of Christ. Notice. /T* ‘ " ¿ A Ï- Lfàu'Z •y’* Ginn, Coleman <&, Co.

During the war it might have meant almost anything on which to spread butter or its substitutes. But what does it mean now? At the time the food adminis tration called for the use of Substi tutes in the manufacture of bread, so much publicity was given the ruling that the chances of a pur chaser being deceived into believ in g that the article he carried home from the bakery as bread was made wholly from wheat flour were slim; and no objection was made under the food and drugs act to the labeling and sale of the product, Conforming to the food administration's rulings as bread. The restrictions on the use of wheat flour in bread have recent ly been removed, and any pro duct now sold under or labeled with the unmodified term "bread" should, if brought within the juris diction of the act, be prepared from wheat flour only, says the United States department of agri culture, which enforces the food and drugs act. If wheat floyr sub stitutes are used, their presence should be clearly stated on the Is-, 4>el. The same principle applies in the case of crackers.
