Uncle Sam Explains How to Make Bread American Housewife Wastes Much Energy, Government Depart ment Expert Says. WASHINGTON, May 7.—The Amer ican housewife wastes much energy in making bread, according to Miss Hannah Wessling, expert bread mak er for the Department of Agriculture. Bread doesn’t need much kneading, she declares. Let the yeast do your work. Her method is: Take twelve ounces of flour for a one-pound loaf. Use one-fourth ounce of sugar, one-fourth ounce of salt and ten ounces of tepid water. Mix the yeast, salt and flour, and then let them ferment for an hour instead of using them immediately after they “foam." Warm the flour and mix with the ferment. Allow the mass to stand one hour. Don’t handle it. It doesn’t need much kneading. Mix it up and allow it to stand another 45 minutes, when it is ready for the molds. The entire process should be con ducted in a room wherft the tempera ture is 80 to 86 degrees. Any warmer means sour bread and any cooler sog gy bread. ‘Five Ways to Live Without Work, but— Pastor Says, However, They Lead to Prison and Unhap piness. MINNEAPOLIS, MINN , May 7.— “A spendthrift sweetheart and an ex travagant wife have ruined many lives,” declared the Rev. T. W. Stout in a sermon in Calvary Methodist Church. "Young women can help to form high moral standards among the boys by not permitting great ex penditures upon themselves.” Mr. Stout's subject was, "How to Live Without Working.’ "There are ways to live without work, hut all such have drawbacks.” he paid. "You can loaf, but that soon plays but; you can beg, but artistic begging is more strenuous than labor; stealing is a common method, but that ends in prison some time.

Gate City Has Scores Who Are Doing Best Work After Pass ing Three-Score Mark. The assertion of Dr. Harvey YV. Wiley, former thief chemist for the Government, made in the course of a Washington address the other day, that man has reached the prime of life at 60 years, and that he has reached the highest state of efficiency after he has passed the three-score mark, is proved right here in Atlanta. The Gate City of the South has scores of examples of Dr. Wiley s 60-year-old type—men who are doing their best work, not only for their city and their government, but for themselves. in fact, Atlanta is run by men who are more than sixty years old, when, according to the disciples of Dr. Os ier, they are merely cheating the un dertaker by living. Many of the most prominent figures in Atlanta com mercial and financial circles, the men to whom appeal is made when there is anything to be put through that requires brains, energy and money, are “old men." Many Examples in Atlanta. Dr. Wiley says it is possible for men to grow old without becoming senile. The idea that younger persons are rendering greater service to humanity, he contends, is erroneous. Atlanta has a number of illustrations which bear out this statement. A man 62 years old is now serving his second term as Governor of Geor gia. Atlanta has a man 63 years old who is president of one of the largest banks in the city, who is at his desk every working day in the year, and who has immortalized himself in the eyes of Atlanta music lovers by bring ing grand opera here and bringing it here to stay. He is Colonel W. L. Peel. It has two bankers, Colonel Robert Lowry and Captain James W. Eng lish, 73 and 75 years old, respectively, who run their banks with more en ergy than is possessed by the average young man. and It has another bank er. George Winship. who is 78 years old, and one of the biggest figures In the city. It has a 62-year-old capitalist who is just starting another skyscraper, and who says he will start another when he gets through with thiR one. Number Are City Officials. The city government is sprinkled with men over 60 years old. For ex ample, there Is Captain Robert M. Clayton, 68, and It can not be denied that he is up and awake every mo ment of the day. The list could be prolonged indefl- Atlantans Past 60 Still ‘In Harness’ Robert Morris Clayton. City Chief of Construction, 68. Joseph Mackel Brown, Governor of Georgia, 62.

Atlanta has any number of merchants, .bankers, lawyers, doctor.- and the like who are more than 60 yearn old, and yet who are just as enthusiastic as the younger men. and who can hold their own with them in any deal. And mo*t of these “young old men" declare that they are going to stay in harness. None of them will admit that he is tired of the hurry and bus tle of business life. Colonel Robert Lowry, one of Atlanta’s biggest capi talists. president of the Lowry Na tional Bank and head of the Atlanta Clearing House Association, who is 73 years old. expressed the prevail ing sentiment among the Atlanta vet erans when he declared: “I am proud of my age. Sometimes I feel a little tired, but it is a bodily fatigue rather than a mental one. I wouldn’t give up business under any consideration. I don’t see why a man should retire just because he happens to have reached 60 years. Going to Die in Harness. "I’m a whole lot more than 60. and I'm not ready to give up yet. I’m going to die in harness, and there are a lot more of the old boys who are going to do the same thing.” Col. YV. L. Peel, the man who put grand opera in Atlanta and one of the city’s most enthusiastic boosters, is 63 years old, and says he is better mentally than when he was 40. "If a man takes care of himself and diversifies his work," said Colo nel Peel, "there is no reason why he shouldn't be as strong mentally w hen he is 60 as when he is 40. In most cases I believe he is .stronger. “But, of course, if a man lets him self get into a rut, he probably will wear out before he gets very old. 1 don’t think a man ought to retire simply because he is beginning to get old.” JULIAN M.
