of rural schools is the
greatest forward movement in the
nation today, J. Buell'Snyder of the
hoard of education, Perryopolis, Pa.,
said in an address before the
National Education Association here.
"We must save our rural schools
if we are to save our nation," Mr.
Snyder said. “To save our rural
schools we must consolidate. Many
things can be done ;nd many hings
will be done, j nd by 1935 seventy-five
per cent of all the rural schools of
the country will have been consoli
dated.
“To bring about this consolidation
as rapidly as possible, the different
states should frame binding laws on
the subject; appropriate money
enough to put these laws into efti t,
and put on a big publicity campaign
in favor of the boys and girls of our
rural districts.
“The attitude we have had as a na
tion towards consolidated schools has
led, year after year, thousands of our
rural boys and girls up to the altar
of ignorance and there sacrificed
them to the hard god of wealth. We
cannot long perpetuate a democracy
if we tri at our rural population in

The larger of the two pictures above
shows former Governor Goodrich, of
Indiana, measuring out some of the
first consignment of American corn
to reach an isolated Russian village.
The peasants who have already re
ceived their allotment are seen with
| their sacks filled. Governor Goodrich
.] in this picture is tilting the measure
j j laden with “Amerikanski maize”—the
Russian name for the corn and an
; expression which is spoken almost
with reverence by the peasants. ,
t In the smaller of the pictures one
i of the peasants is seen grinding his
; allotment of corn, in order that he
: and his family may lose no time in
s cooking it. The method of grinding
: is a primitive one and it is probable
- that few Americans of "the present
r generation have seen such operations
s conducted, except for exhibition pur-
- poses. However, it is the only method
> which these peasants know.

Now is the time to pay
close attention and see
that your bakings are pure,
wholesome and nutritious.
Good flour is all flour with
the nutritive value of wheat.
Mix it with good baking pow
der and you have a nutritious,
wholesome, palatable baking.
No ready mixed substitute will
take its place.
For wholesome, nourishing
food you should use straight
flour and a pure baking
powder—
There never was, is not, and
never will be anything that
will take the place of good
straight baking powder and
plain flour.
If you are using self-rising
flour or any other kind of a
substitute for good baking
powder or plain flour you had better
stop, and consider whether you are
practicing real economy, or saving
money. You are taking a chance of
losing the full nutritious health-build
ing value of a good, plain Hour.
For best results use-
Calumet Baking Powder and
a good plain flour.
