"H having been brought to my at-

through different channels that the
concensus of opinion seems o he that
the board of oounty commissioner-
withdrew the support of the count;
from the United Charities chiefly
through and on account of the ex-pensi-.t;
manner in which the fiel i

lo tee ladies of the Vniled Charitien

public tin benefit of my knowledge o!
the handling of the lands turned over
to the city by the county for charity
work.
"When I was elected to the office oi
county clerk and assumed charge oi
the office the Cnited Charities re
ceived a limited support at stated In-
tervals from the board of county
commissioners. During the year 1911
the commissioners continued working
in conjunction with the ladies of the
I'nited Charities and at the close of
business .. for that year it was show n
that all funds thus t'.irued to the chai
ities had ben handled in hitch ar
economical and careful and painstak-
ing manner that - h as county cler!;.
rtcommended to the board of com-
missioners tnat the umounts given the
charities be raised to such a sum as
would not only take care of the charities-'
work but would also care for
the city compulsory school attendance
fund.
"At the cloe of the fiscal year-.for

U-:'r out my statement that the char-1 sioners which led to the withdrawal
ity funds and the compulsory school ( by the board of commissioners of the

Is almost as old as Adam. In olden times they usid the hollow stone mor-
tar and a round stone pestle and pounded and liibbed the grain Unto a
course but nutritious flour. In these times the aicients made bread of the
result of this grinding -having no way of separating the flour from the husk
dirt and minute particles of stone it all wentnto the leaven. It's quite
a long stride along progressive linep from tb Kittle stone pestle mill to ibfje
modern roller mills where thousands of biuhels of the choicest wheat
pass through the hoppers in a day into the burrs coming to your0 flour
bin in the shape of that snow white clean powdery staple the finest
flour in the world.
