He thought it would be prop er to take an average loaf of bread 20 slices and break the loaf down 20 ways. Who got what the farmer, the miller and so forth down the line. When he got ready to make his speech the bakers presented him with a loaf, hot from the oven. The secretary counted the slices. There were only 19. So he gave a bell hop 18 cents, the going rate for a losf of bread in Wash ington. The boy came back with a 20-slice loaf, all right, but he reminded the head man of agriculture that at the place he bought it in Atlantic City bread was 21 cents. Amount due: three cents. P.S. The speech went over pretty good, slice by slice. W. NICHOLS Ce-tur Writer taps, and that's hard to do on a bagpipe. Capt. John A.
