Bread Maker Says Housewives Don’t Want 5-Cent Loaf ■ I Chicago, 111.. July 26 — (UP)— "The five cent loaf of bread will return when the housewife wants It,” W. E. Long, chairman of the National Bread conference in session here believes. "But the housewife doesn't want 'five cent’ bread," Long said. "When five cent bread was available years ago, the housewife wouldn't have It. She wanted a good loaf of bread and she took the trouble to bake it herself.” "When the baker stopped baking a cheap loaf and offered a wholesome, palatable, clean-made loaf, he slowly began to receive the housewife’s patronage,” Long said in a speech to a conference of bakers here. Long predicted that should the baker be forced again to offer a five cent loaf, he would see his business slump back to the level of years ago. “The successful baker of today uses the ingredients mother used to employ,” Long explained. o Alberto Salvi, Famous Harpist, Coming To Winona ATberto Salvi, the world’s greatest harpist, is coming to Winona Lake, Indiana, on Thursday evening.

! HEDDA HOYT TELLS ....about... S FASHIONS for WOMEN I I I By Hedda Hoyt (U. P. Fashion Editor) New York. July 25 — (UP) — For some time it has been tlie tendency among women to tiy to look as straight as a string bean on a stretcher. To attain straight lines, dieting, rolling, exercising and all sorts of reducing methods have been attempted, many times without avail. Young girls as well as their mothers have gone on a reducing rampage. In a girl's school just outside of New York City, over half of the students who range between 16 and 18 years of age dieting, to attain smartness. Recently the mother of a ten-year-old daughter informed me that her child was dieting to reduce the size of her legs. If reducing methods among children continue we shall develop into a race of slab-sided and underdeveloped women without physical charms and without health, it will not take as many years to defeat nature’s work of perfect body-building as it requires to acquire a strong normal body. At bathing beaches today it is most difficult to distinguish a young man from a young woman. They wear similar bathing suits, both have

straight legs, arms aud bodies and both wear close-cropped hair. The eighteen-year-old girl Is as underdeveloped as a twelve-year-old girl of former days. She gloats in her underdevelopment. One sign of a feminine curve and she starts counting callories. Some of the reputable physicians tell us that women are healthier today than they were fifteen years ago. This isn't because of their dieting, however. It’s because they exercise more and because they no longer wear body-binding corsets which interfere with the interna) organs. Physicians are constantly advising women to put on a little more weight. As far as looks are concerned, both the older woman and the young woman look more attractive when the bones of the body are covered by a softening layer of flesh. Feminine frocks are more attractive than severe lines. When a woman reaches the 'fat and forty’ age she should know that sagging chins and sallow com-
