Dowmeville School Report.
Downieville school of Adams twp clos
ed on Thursday evening with one of tln
most largely attended and highly praised
entertaiunicnts ever given in this part of
the county.
The term of school just finished began
Sept. 30 ami continued through a period
of six months
i I here wish to say in justice to the pa
trons, directors and pupils of the district
that I have never received n more hearty
co-operation and more real sympathy
than has been shown me here during the
jiast winter. Many thanks for the same.
Jnst a word or two concerning the ex
hibition given 0:1 Thursday evening.
The weather was not as pleasant as it
might have been, yet that dia
the people away from the meeting.
Space will no' permit mi to tell you of
the different rehearsals, deelanations, dia
logues, and songs, but will say that all
the performers did credit to themselves
in their performances.
One market! feature of the meeting was
the well rendered and highly appreciated
music given by the Downieville Orches
tra, and others.
The performance once over, then oc
cured a most surprising,yet highly appre
ciated event which consisted in one of
the patrons in the name of the school pre
senting your correspondent with a hand
some purse of Jlo as a remembrance of
them and as a manifestation of their sin
cere desire for my return as their teacher
next winter. Here language fails me to
fully express my heartfelt appreciation
and*kind regards for that token of re
spect, confidence, and love, coming as I
believe it did, from the heart of every
one of my pupils. Can only say kind
pupils, one ami all, I do truly thank you
not only for that deed of kindness, but as
well for the many other occurences which
have taken place during my stay among
you as teacher.
In conclusion I wish to say to parents,
directors, pupils and friends of education
in this twp, I leave you with many fond
remembrances of your kindness towards
me. May God speed the cause of educa
tion in the future more than ever Ijefore,
until we can look upon our common
schools as the great bulwark <>f our Gov
ernment. Allan I'ainti.r, Teacher.

A Great Industry
Thirty years ago, the baking in
dustry of this .'ountry was carried on
for the] moat part in the i'emily
kitchen, and about a dozen varie
ties of small cakes in all were made.
Bread, cookies, ginger snaps and
ginger bread were the most popular
article of consumption
About that time tho manufacture
of cakes by machinery was introduc
ed and carried on in a small way in
New York, and other eastern cities,
and a baker who turned ten barrels
of flour a day into cake 3 was con
sidered to b9 doing an enormous
business.
The work was carried on in small
and too often dirty shops, where the
light of day diu not penetrate and
ventilation was out of the question.
About that time the Marvin Bakery
was established in Pittsburg. Start
ing from small beginnings, i l, is now
the largest baftery, with one excep
tion in tho United States.
Cleanliness, sun'ight and veatila
tion are considered prime requisitss
in that well ordered institution.
The materials used in the manufac
ture of the endless variety of choice
dainties are the very best, the very
purest money can buy.
The variety of delicious cakes is as
tonishing. New ideas in sweets are
constantly coming into fashion, and
this bakery leads is setting styles.
More different kinds of cakes have
been originated by this enterprising
house than by anv other bakery in
the country. Visitors are always
welcome and hundreds of people
visit this interesting establishment
yearly.
The works run day and night—
crackers and cakes are made in the
day, bread at night so as to go to the
consumers hot from the ovens. Two
car coads of flour are daily used, six
hundred and twonty-fonr car loads a
year. Tho product of this bakery is
sold all over the country.
Don't be deceived into buying
anything said to be just as good as
Marvin's. Uuy only Marvin's
Crackers and Cakes, and you will
get the full worth of your money.
