Mary had a little lamb—
Tier husband, you must know,
J iid everywhere that Maw went
That man wan unit la go.
Exceyt through Mary’s kitchen door,
Which iras against her mile.
“For men." she said, “who see too
uch
"Are very hard to fool."
ND wasn’t Mary a wise little
L-k wife? For her husband, you
X A see, was tremendously proud
of her cooking, especially her pies,
cakes and cookies, and Mary, de-
lighted with his praise, didn’t want
him to find out what was the simple
secret of her success. But between
us gals it was self-rising flour.
Simply that. She had learned that
pre - leavened flour took all the
guesswork out of home baking and
made it a pleasure instead of an
anxious ordeal, so that she was able
to give her family all the baked
goodies they craved.
Properly made bread, pie, cake
and similar foods are extremely val-
uable in the diet. Bread contains
protein, minerals and carbohydrates
in appreciable amounts. The addi-
tion of butter as a spread contrib-
utes fat and vitamins. Cake and
pastries are an even richer and
more concentrated food and serve
the double purpose of providing
necessary elements and of satisfy-
ing our craving for sweets. It is
necessary', however, that they be
properly made.
Homo baking has always been a
rather complicated and uncertain
task, but is no longer a problem
for homemakers who use self-rising
flour for all baking purposes except
yeast bread. Milled from fine souths
era grown soft wheat, and perfectly
flavored and pre-leavened, this flour
has taken ihe element of uncer-
tainty completely out of home
baking.
Selection, measuring and mixing
of salt, baking powder and soda or-
dinarily used in home baking is
unnecessary with self-rising flour,
which makes it economical as well
as time-saving.
Then, too, the finished product
will be of superior quality and con-
tain the valuable food elements of
fine soft wheat in addition to cal-
cium. and phosphates, two minerals
which are particularly necessary to
good teeth and bone building ir
growing children.

Beautiful Spring weather this Mon-
day eve. Feel like writing poetry,
but can’t conceive the rhythmic lines.
There was a birthday party at the
residence of Mr. and Mrs. Wm.
Shive on last Sunday. It was given
in honor of Mrs. M. O. Stansbury
and little Jay Houston Shive. There
was a fine spread of good things to
eat which was placed before the in-
vited guests, who were Mr. and Mrs.
M. O. Stansbury, Mr. and Mrs. D.
Waits, Mrs. Lou Rogers, Paul and
George Tarpley, Sam Scroggens and
Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Smith.
There was a ball game played at
the new ball park near the big dam
last Saturday evening. There was a
large and orderly crowd present. The
score stood 4 to 3 in favor of Edhube
There is lots of room in this new
park and the hard hitters do not get
the ball over any fences.
Edwin Hudson was visiting rela-
tives here last Sunday eve. It wil!
be remembered that Edwin under-
went an operation but recently and 1
am glad he is coming back to normal
so quickly. Edwin is a clerk at the
Peeler Drug store and he knows his
business, gets ai’ound and waits on
customers in a quick and pleasant
way. He knows how to find things.
Mr. and Mrs. Max Bennett of some-
where in Louisiana were visiting here
Sunday last. Mrs. Bennett was Miss
Rheta May Whitt, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Lawrence Whitt who live
over in Arledge Ridge community.
We had the pleasure of meeting
Prof. -Chester Biggers in Bonham on
last Saturday. He has been engaged
in collegiate work in Nebraska for
some time. Did not learn whether
he was aiming to continue teaching in
that State or engage in something
n the State of his birth. The pro-
fessor is a brother to Dr. Biggers and
a son of J. C. Biggers of this com-
munity.
Crops of all kinds are doing fine
gardens ditto. It will not be long
until oats will do to cut. There are
a few crops of very fine volunteer
oats, that are beginning to turn.
Sam Scroggins is in on a visit to
elatives here. Sam lives out near
Abernathy in Hale county. He says
there is a fine grain crop in prospect
out there. The combines handle the
grain and does away with many
harvest hands.
The people of these United States
seem to be in a mell of hess, plenty
of everything and nothing to buy
with. (Cotton is from 4 to 6 cents,
corn 25 cents per bushel. Millions
of unemployed, charity funds almost
exhausted. We need men at the head
of government who are capable of
doing and are willing to do. Yes we
are willing. I am reminded of the
days when cattle were driven overland
to Kansas markets. Sometimes the
herd would reach a river out of
banks. The boss of the herd was
generally a man who had come up
from the bottom as a cow boy. If
the range was eaten out, his orders
were “the cattle have got to be taken
over the stream at once.” Sometimes
he would push over on the account
of contract a head, which was limited
and delay was dangerous. These
cattle would be pushed into the
stream, generally the boss leading
in front of the herd. These cow boys
would whoop and yell, fire their six
guns in the air. Some would keep up
close to the front and would lambast
the leaders over horns with a loaded
quirt to keep them going, for cattle
would invariably want to stop when
the strong current of the stream was
struck, would go to milling around
and if not kept going would ^ be
sucked under by the strong current
and drowned. Keep them going was
the only thing to do. Once over and
on good range on they would go.
Yes we are willing and we need men
to put us over the swollen stream of
hard times. The chuck wagon ordi-
narily would be detoured many miles
often to where a ferry^could be found
and often would not get to camp for
many hours after eating time. Let
us hope to see John Garner elected
president and when he hitches his
big tractor onto the Hoover bread
wagon that has been bogged up so
long, pulls it out, and makes way for
more bread and better bread all will
feel better.
With a formal presentation by
Judge H. A. Cunningham, Mrs. Robert
Rodgers of Lubbock recently gave to
the Bonham high school a large
picture of her brother, Harry Peyton
Steger. The picture is one that had
hung in the home of her parents, the
late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas P. Steger
Harry Peyton Steger was a graduate
of Bonham high school, of the State
University and as a winner of a
Rhodes scholarship attended Oxford.
Before his death he had made a
bicycle trijj over Europe and had be-
come known as one of the foremost
of young American writers. He was
literary adviser for Doubleday Page
Company of New York at the time of
his death some years ago and his
friends felt that he had a brilliant
future ahead of him. His body was
brought to Bonham and buried in
Willow Wild on the lot where his
parents have since been buried.
