The members Of the only church H.
Bainbridge have adopted a novel means
of raising funds for their new building.
Last year, when the church was built.
the Ladies' Aid society subscribed q
sum Of money. The members wanted to
earn their money. but said none OF the
old methods would do. Then some n
suggested bread making. you know
how many people dislike bakers bread
she said. Lets bake homemade bread
and sell it." And bread making It was.
The experiment proved successful, and
soon there was a demand for more thar
they could supply. A delivery wagon
was purchased, and pies and cakes add
ed to the output. Ovens were placed In
the church basement, and here, day AZ
ter day, committees Of the ladies pre-.
pared the bread.
The pastor DOTTED his ministerial garb
and donncd a hig apron, and, With
sleeves rolled up, kneaded the dough.
More customers came, and now over
100 loaves OF bread daily were required
to supply the demand, while pies and
cakes innumerable found their way
from the church ovens.
"The plan. IS a success" said the pas
tor. w are making money. We are
independent, too, and give value re-
|ceived for our money. and do not have

ments, or anything Of that nature, Our
church furnishes the stan OF lie tn
