In speaking about it the encyclo- poedia Brlttanlca says it goes back to the remotest period of pagan hiBtory. »mau sweet cakes marked with the print of ox horns were offered by the Egyptians^ to their moon goddess. However, It was with the Greeks that the bun really got its name. They of- £ered cakes made from n n P\ flour and honey to • the God Astarte. As these were symbolical of tho ox and had the ox horns imprinted on their surface, the c.ake. was called boun or bon (ox). In tho course of time the Greeks commenced marking their buns with a cross probably referring. to the four quarters of the moon. Thus It was really the Greeks who first In- novated the hot cross bun, thousands of years before the birth of the Chris- tian era.

SEVEN MORE CO.B Recruiting Campaign of Or- ganization Has Struck Its Stride—-Is Going Strong Cpmpany B's recruiting campaign has now struck its stride. Seven men were signed up last evening in addition to the six who previouslyhad Joined the company. This makea^hirteen re- cruits who have been added to tha company this week, making the present strength* of the organization 82 aim the entrance to the temple and taken in. Investigators excavating at Her- culaneum found two buns with a cross plainly imprinted on them. The* pagan_ Saxons of England alsa ate cross buns In honor of Easter their goddess of light. ' The Mexicans and Peruvians had a similar custom and It may be said that the custom was universal. The church was quick to grasp the .idea and soon adopted it as a.ceremony. In the medieval church these buns were distributed to com- municants The..«ustom-Bt-tH--prevafls- ln Franco and other countries. As far back as 1252 English bakers Imitated the church buns and did a, thriving business until forbidden by a royal edict. Lat,er the bun lost its sacrosanct nature and became an eat- able bound to Good. Friday for no par^ ticular reason except custom and still Continues as-such today. There are many superstitions cred- ited to the cross bun some of which are still believed in Europe. Thus some people keep one bun from one Good Friday until the next for luck. Many believe that a cross biitL hung over tho chimney place and baked on Good Friday will prevent the bread baked In the house for th'e year, from being stringy. attire Favors Savings Banks Bills leaving 26 mfore men to be secured. Among the men who signed their enlistment papers last evening was Clinton F, Stivers, who has seen ser- vice in tho British Army. For more the Fifth Dragoon Guard. Announce- ment was made today that the ofHcers of the company are especially an- xious to receive applications from ex- service men, as it is held that their previous training will be a valuable asset., to the • organization. Tho officers of the company had a conference ,with a committee, repre- senting the business men of the. city, and it was found that the committee not only was willing but was eager to co-operate with the officers jh._.the~ TeTrraiftn^^ampaTgn. As a result of the conference last evening a paper Is being circulated today among the bus» iness men to secure a general expres- sion of co-operation between the bus- iness men the company. Besides Mr. Stivers the other men who enlisted In the company .last evening were: Frank A. Vogt, William Shipman, Arthur M. Jensen, Arvld E. Eklind, William H. DeLand and Wil- liam C. Benedict. jg DAMAGES HOUSE i Conditions are favorable to the pas- sage of .the two bills desired by sav- ing's banks, according to George D, WhedQ&r-seerctary and treasurer of the Geneva Savings -Bank, who re- turned this-- morning from , Albany, where he attended a joint legislative erday.—One- of the bills proposes an increase in the maximum amount of individual accounts In sav- ings banks from $3,00(1 to *5,000 and the other provides permission for sav- lngs*anka to rent safe-deposit boxes. No abpecttbn was expressed at the a\ the afnouni of savings banks deposits and otly one objection was made t o the safe depos- it bilL This objection was made by a representative of a safe deposit com- pariyT who held that savings banks, if granted safe deposit privileges, should bo required to be capitalized for that purpose, the same as safe deposit companies. This point was answered . by George.J- Skinner, state, superinten- dent of banks, who \said that the sur- plus funds of the sayings banks pro- vide protection greatly in excess of the capital of the safe deposit companies. - .' • .- .m, -• — ' , What fashionable aoolety did to tho chorus girl bride.
