Bread Haa Been Food of
Man for Many Centuri**
Have you ever wondered why we
all eat bread—why we never seem
*i get tired of It"'
bread has been the food of man
' thousands of years Eating It
as become almost an Instinct
Nhy, the word ' bread" is used for
food" and has been for centurie*.
When famine has been recoided. It
usually meant a shortage ot wheat,
and. therefore, a shortage of bread
Wheat and bread could be consid-
ered the foundation of our life today
as well as its support. They have
caused both riots and reforms
The earliest bread must have
; been pretty horrible stuff as judged
i by Twentieth century standards.
| Hut by the end of the Eighteenth
j century the people of England would
i no longer think of eating black
bread made of rye, or ' tiorsa
j bread" made from beans for whlcb
j they had been only too thankful dur-
| lng the Middle ages, declare* a
writer In Lonon Answers Maga-
zine.
In the Fourteenth century the
Turks hanged bakers for selling bad
bread, and nailed them by their
**rs to doorposts If they sold lo*ve*
under weight In England, at th*
, same time, the crime ot selling un-
der weight was punished by pillory
or by the offender being dragged
•round the streets on burdl*
drawn by a horse. In both case*
the wretched petty swindler waa
pelted by the crowd.

The Remington Premier
rile Remington Premier is an entirely new
model which has been added to make the Rem-
ington liii«j complete in every price range.
The advantages of the Premier over the lower
priced Remington Portables are based upon its
"elbow" type action which gives it quick re-
sponse to the speediest, lightest touch.
The touch action of this machine is very much
like that of large office type machines of the
very latesi models Moreover, this is the low-
est priced machine with touch action similar
to the touc 11 of typewriters us«-d in business
universities.
