Mrs. Canon was born In Rlpon, Wis., the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Taylor, the latter one of the founders of the Republican party in that city. The party was formed February 28, 1854 at a meeting at tended by Mrs. Canon's father and fifty-five other citizens in that sec tion of Wisconsin. The gift is a sofa pillow cover, made by Mrs. Canon herself, depicting the birthplace of the Republican party, a portion of Green Lake and the Bartlett cottage, famous landmarks of her home town. Naturally the article was much prized In the Canon family, and It was at Mrs. Canon's request that It was gtven to the local organization, formed to commemorate the principles and memory of Abra ham Lincoln, and the party of which he, was the first president. Mrs. Canon, like her husband, for mer Mayor W. H. Canon, was always a ataunch and loyal Democrat, but , was never narrow in her partisanship. and always honored and revered the principles and character of the Great Emancipator. She felt, and the family feel, that the place for such an heirloom, so bound up with the early history of the Republican party, Is at the head quarters of sn organization formed to cherish and perpetuate the prin ciples and Ideals of that party's great leader, and Its first president. This soft pillow cover wilt be on display at the Lincoln banquet In the Medford hotel Monday evening. 4 Hens will reduce their production of eggs and finally cease laying en tirely unlesa they are supplied with fresh water.

Night at the 1 0 Hotel Medford SMOOTH FLOOR By ADELAIDE KERR (Associated Press Staff Writer.) PARIS, Feb. 7. llt skirts, re vealing the mannequin's leg up to the knee, made their debut in spring styles at a Patou showing today. Sapphire blue, almond green, sal mon rose, black and purple satins and crepes were designed on a very slen der silhouette and molded to the fig ure with trained skirts slashed once in the front or back clear to the knee. They were fashioned with triangular back tabs standing straight out from the baok of the hips or over the shoulder blades. Since the new lino did not permit the wearing of a coat, evening gowns were generally accom panied by short Jackets of the same fabric or contrasting material, with papoose hood collars. Day frocks, adopting "youthful clothes" as slogan, were designed In a less exaggerated silhouette of slender lines, but less closely moulded to the figure. These were designed with semi high necks, long sleeves and eklrrs, seven to ten Inches from the ground, with -many uneven hemlines, often shorter in the sides than in the front or back. The colors were sapphire blue, navy black crepes and satins with white pique organdy trims. The hats were of dark straw with square or sharply, rolled brims on each side. Ten movie frocks, designed to be worn by motion picture actresses dm lng the "shooting" of scenes, were demonstrated under Klelg lights. The outstanding model was of long white organdy worn ocer an abbreviated black sequins slip. CORN SYRUP HEIRESS SETS OUT ON CAREER AS CINEMA CHORINE HOLLYWOOD. Feb. .

No bread has ever caught the publio fancy its has this newest product from the Cascade Wonderland's finest Bakery. PERHAPS if you haven't tried it you've wondered about it. Spun Bread is made by an entirely different and new process. Two strands of SPECIAL dough are intortwined in the pan.' This inter twining or spinning results in a texture not found in the ordinary loaf of bread. The illustration on right shows the difference. BUT even more important than this is the decidedly improved flavor of this new type bread. Because of this spinning process we are able to use a much softer type of dough, one which has been more thoroughly aged, one which has had the gluten more thoroughly mellowed, a dough which gives the finished loaf of bread the full flavor of the wheat berry.
