McIlwain Breaking the Record

At the end OF two months McIlwain's
new Capital bakery on Court street has
made record Of consuming 81 barrels
of -four and over ton Of sugar. The
delivery wagon is out all day, and three
branch bakeries have been established,
at the Huffman grocery in North Salem,
at Maguire's grocery in East Salem, and
Allen & Bowersox in Yew Park. The
demand of Capital bakery bread has
grown so that one baking Of $50 loaves
has TO be pulled off in the morning and
another OF 450 loaves in the afternoon.
Mr.. Mcllwain has introduced a new
thing in the way OF bread baked espec-
tally for campers, one party returning
from the Santiam after a weeks outing
and this campers bread kept perfectly
fresh. The variety Of pastry, cakes,
rolls, pies, and fancy baking that is dis
played there on Saturday is a sight
worth seeing, but 1t is all gone by sun.

mandment, his misconduct in applying
endearing epithets and kissing her
against her will and better judgment
was 30 much greater that he owed her
a whole lot Of judicious lying. If that
would help matters any, which IL sell
dom does. HE mother-in.law, who
seems 10 be making all the trouble, says
she saw lhim lead this other woman into
dark corners to fix his necktie and ad.
Just his collar button, and once he took
her leftt hand and put IL mp against his
right cheek, and when she slapped him
with her other hand he said; "Let not
thy right hand know what thy left hand
doeth." Under the circumstances his
action was wild and he might have
quoted scripture far more violent and
appropriate. We submit that on all
these specifications women would be
far more apt to deal out justice with
both the right hand and the left. In
fact II the men who try the minister do
not fnd this whole matter too ridiculous
for the solemnity Of church trial they
are lot OF half.baked Christians. The
Presbyterian church has always stood
for sound family morality and will do
what is right in this case. But the
theory that men alone are At to judge Of
such a matter 10 an indictment Of their
theology which on this matter is lop-
sided and Of the antiquated one.horse
variety. The time has passed when
people. even women. can be excluded
from having opinions on any matter Of
human interest.
