cakes away so jack lifts not his protest to the sky but draws a plum from out the pres ent pie and tasting of the goodly fruit -eac- x faith a goodly philosopher am t we had intended to have something to say this week knout the different ingredients that are lnolqded in the makeup of a loaf of bread but owing to this new tax on flour petfaaps it might be more timely to say ywiitdriy about that instead about a year ago a tax of 15c was placed on each sack of hour and because of the socalled small amount of this tax itwassupposed to be absorbed by the bakers instead of being passed on to the consumer while 15c itself lsnt a very large am ount yet on every hundred bags of hour that the baker uses it means he has to dig up an extra fifteen dol lars and the baker doesnt grow extra fifteens in his back yard any more than does the professional man the publisher or what have you now the tax is jacked up to 50c per bag and this time it will be passed on to the con sumer while we may talk or write about bread wc are unable to get very far without mentioning two other commodities namely wheat and flour we all know that wheat is ground into flour and that flour is used in the making of bread the thr subst aregjasely related andyet wehave no one yardstick or slide rule with which we can value these three commodities wheat quoted by the bushel of 60 lbs flour is quoted by the barrel or half barrel u96 or 98 lbs respectively and bread is sold by the loaf of 24 oxs ii is dif ficult to see why a few cents difference in the price of wheat should affect the price of bread or flour either row- ever a small change in the price of wheat soon affects the price of flour and while it takes a larger difference in the price of flour than that of wheat to affects the price of bread it ootybslmoak tooof 4iuccol to prove to you that ifslbuptm fovcfeaaer lie ftmi iiiiiifl t le coat order blue coal today iff h miner and son rhone u georgetown hjt tmtm gjpm yet it eventually does affect bread prt cs we kick more about a cent in crease in the price of bread than we do of tbe increase in the price of afcty other commodity end yet brent is tbe cheapest article of food on the mar ket and if the price were doubled it would still be the cheapest food that we coftkt purchase or look at it this way if you only had dime to buy your eats each day what would you buy would it be meat mok cereal or fruit we would say neither but would invest our dime in loaf of bread in recent years the word cal orie has been used more often than it used to be it is a measurement of heat one calorie being the tynoup of heat that is required to raise the temperature- of one gmm of waiter one degree on the centigrade scale a loaf of bread contains 1mb calories or 1200 to the lb a sb of roast lamb contains 000 calories chicken 890 eggs 766 boiled rice aiojodashed potatoes 505 whole milk 325 oatmeal 385 beef soup 130 and fresh tomatoes 105 oonoa pare the price of a lb of bread to that of t 0of any of these foods mentioned and you get a- proper value of the bcead that nay next week we wul be commencing on those ingred ients unless the heralds waste paper basket heads us off we should bmve mentioned that our bodies require cal ories tor heat and energy and when we stoke those bodies of our with breed we are using the most economical fuel available the sunday morning broadcast sponsored by the weekly newspapers association which is conducted by andy dark is provtng be quite an attraction we understand that this association now includes some 160 weekly papers and if andy reads all these carefully he must have a fund of knowledge it win be a case of what to leave out rather than one of what to talk about we would imagine some weeks ago andy used an editor ial from the herald which spoke of the lack of advertising on the part of the newspapers themselves in regard to informing the public that they the newspapers while urging others to advertise failed to do it themselves just another case of tbe cobblers children going unshod anyway andy used it as a plug for all the weekly papers and it gave the herald some smart piaucity we understand that another program may be put on the air before long with andy taking the leading part the idea will be to give historical news of the different locall- uesjshether- this would prove to be aspopular as tbe news items in the sunday morning program remains to be seen one noticeable advantage of this program is the number of new members that are joining the associa tion no doubt they think that they better chip in and maybe have some article taken from their particular pa per and broadcast some sunday morn ing as the announcer says andy tells us something about what the peo ple are doing and planning and think ing about in that important part of ontario that lies outside the cities we would think that a large percen tage of city folk came from some mii town or rural community and that they still have afl interest in these parts that lie outside the etttes and that even city folk get a big kick out of those human interest articles that andy takes from weekly papers u make up bis sunday morning broad cast ifyou walk as a friend you will find a mend where you choose to rare if t you go with mirth to a far strange end you will find that mirth is there for the strangest part of this queer old world is that like will join with like- and who walks with love for his fellow- man an answering love will strike if you walk in honour then honest men will meet you along the way but if you are false you will find men false wherever you chance to stray for good breeds good and bad breeds bad we are met by the traits we show love will find a friend at the strangers door where hate win flnd a foe for each of us builds the world he knows which only himself can spoil and an hour of hate or an hour of i shame can ruin a life of toll- and though to the utmost ends of the earth your duty may bid you fare if you go with truth and a friendly heart you win find friends waiting when in need of fine prlntlng phone s for r cwmsleraida these charming pictures of young canadians in the national costumes of their
