Forty-five minutes after Prof. B. W. Dedrick of Pennsylvania State College kneaded flour, water, yeast and a secret brown powder into dough, he had a loaf of bread baked and ready for eating. Housewives require ten hours for bread making; commercial bakers take two hours.

...charged five? At Montfalcon they even charged a wounded man (stretcher case) for cigarettes and by God he had to pay before he got them-correction, a shavetail did the paying; the buck didn't have any pants. F. Palmer and the Inspector-General know which side their bread is buttered on and the A. E. F. buck private knows his Y. And to those of you who know neither I'll leave the final verdict.
