Formal opening of the Red Cross art exhibit in the society headquar ters will be held tomorrow afternoon from 3 to 6 o'clock.

Bids on paintings in the exhibit, how in the windows at headquarters, may be placed at any time and the canVases will be sold at public auction at a time and place announced later. In this sale the local chapter is following the plan adopted by larger cities in the country to gain funds for the society and at the same time in

troduce the ,Works of local artists to the public. The biggest donation yet received by the local society is that of two paintings from J. E. Bundy. These paintings, "An Autumn Dream," and "Winter on Clear Creek," are two of Bundy's representative works and their value is more than equal to any cash donation yet received by the society. Girardin Gives Three. Frank J. Girardin contributes three small canvases, autumn and Wood scenes, and a "Winter Sunrise," especially interesting in its flaming sky. "The Old Mill in the Glen" by M. T. Nordyke, is of historic interest, reminding us of cur one-time treasure and the crime of its destruction. There Is "Still Life" by Gus Powell with snowballs rounded by warm

highlights and blue shadows. A. f. Gregg has a "Still Life Candle Light" with the flame lighting the picture and shedding its mellow glow over books and vase and gradually sinking Into the depths' of shadow. Another ' Still Life" interesting in composition and color is! by George H. Baker, "Haydocks, San Francisco Bay" is an attractive Water color and is painted by Miss LilJle A. Howard, at one time a resident of our city. Sehalk Has One.

H. Edgar Schalk gives "Woodland Interior" full of summer sunlight and W. A. Eydem, Jr. shows "Autumn Sunlight" in a picture entitled "Sunlight

and Bhadow." Two small canvases are donated by Elwood Morris. One of these "The Spire of St. Andrews" deserves special notice as being attractive in subject and tone quality. Maude K. Eggemeyer's rich canvas, "Japanese Chrysanthemums," showing the plants in bloom in the grenhouse, is quite modern in color aad handling and fine in its aerial perspective. A large painting by W. A. Eyden, Sr., called "Road Through the Hills" is among the best in the exhibit. The center of interest on the canvas Is well sustained on the distant hills both by composition and tone.

AVIATORS DROP LIBERTY "BOMBS" ON MANHATTAN

NEW YORK, June 7.An aerial bombardment of bomb of literature designated to rouse those who have not subscribed to the Liberty Loan was

the feature of the subscription campaign here today. ' Twenty aircraft under command of Captain Walter G. Kilmer, U. 8. A., each carrying fifty pounds of bomb circulars were assigned to take part In the flight. The bomb circulars bear the inscription: "This was dropped by a United States aviator; it might have been a German bomb. To avoid bombs buy bonds." Liberty loan $10 participation certificates Issued by the federal reserve

bank now on sale by many baaks and tores throughout the New Ybrk district' are reported to be supplying a steadily growing demand. The 900,000 school children la New York were informed In the class room today of the necessity for the loan and the importance for every American man, woman and child to fix his name to the roll of honor, if the plan to establish the liberty loan club of the public schools of greater New York is carried out. Bernard K. Marcus, cashier of the

Bank of the United States, who has volunteered his services at executive manager Of such a club, declared that If one percent of the school children In United States subscribed to a fifty dollar bond apiece the amount realized would be about $10,000,000. With this percentage about $400,000 could be raised in New York alone. The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railroad has subscribed $5,000,000 exclusive of purchases by employes under a gradual payment plan.

A new picture moulding, stamped from sheet metal has been made. It is intended to be nailed to a wall before the plaster is applied, the latter helping to support the weight it carries.

AlrlESICANS WONT EAT BARLEY WAR BREAD

1 rm I "control SraW Gi. PSA Vllih h& ATFLOUU ff tl r54i,-t'l t 3Lr i BARLEY MEAL, $J

War bread flour must be made from Some jrraih other than barley if the American people are expected to eat it, is the statement of Robert M. French, president of the Prench- ' Pancoast chemical laboratories of New York, who has j'ist offered the use of hiB laboratories to the govern ment. Bread containing even a small pro nortion of barley meal or barley flour, Mr. French says, is so dark in color and so coarse in texture that it could never be made popular with Americans. The laboratory was railed upon because it had made exhaustive analyses of flours and grains for the Belgian Relief Commission in the effort to find acceptable and low priced substitutes . for wheat flour in bread making. In the course of experimenta in which certain percentages of barley

flour have been mixed with wheat flour to reduce the cost of bread it was found that even a mixture ef 95 per cent of wheat flour and 5 per cent of barley flour made a bread of coarse and uneven grain, dark Color and of a flavor unsatisfactory to the taste of well fed Americans. The bread bo made likewise, it was found, did not possess proper keeping qualities. Mixture of larger proportions of barley flour with wheat flour produced bread even more unsatisfactory. The experiments were undertaken at the request of the Belgian Relief Commission in order to determine whether or not barley, often suggested as a substitute for wheat in this country, could be used to mix with wheat flour. Summing up the results of the experiments thelab-; oratory experts said the small quan

tities of barley produced in the United States alone rendered extensive use of the grain as a wheat substitute impracticable, and besides that the unsatisfactory quality of bread made from a mixture of the flours was an insuperable obstacle to its use here. The barley produced in the northwest, they say, is mote valuable for brewers" use than as material for bread. Especially, it was pointed out, the by-product known as dried brewers' grains is one of the most valuable feeds for dairy and beef . cattle, coating relatively little and containing a high percentage of nutrients. i Barley, the chemists of the labora-l tory found, is extremely valuable be-! cause of its high hutntive value in the form of "pearl barley" and similar. mealed forms for use in soups, gruels, barley cakes, etc
