The Lincoln club, which holds its

Is the recipient of an unusually in
teresting and valuable gift from Mrs.
Margaret Taylor Canon, who passed
away suddenly following an attack
of pneumonia the first of the week.
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.

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.

LUHRER'S New Spun Bread It the talk of the
town. 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.
Different Texture
Note the difference In texture
of plain bread and Spun Dread.
