TO press a Joy from little things From feet that fall In llmo. From daylong silent fashlonlnfjs Of heart some hidden rhyme, FROM shapes of leaves and clouds and snow. From others' brighter eves From thinking "I am dull, I know. But some are glad and wise;" FROM love dim remembered, though too For laughter or for tears. One fragile flamo. so pale and slim. To gleam on gayer years- THAT Is one way of Joy. I know. Yet I desire, desire To go the way a god might go Through love and life and Are! Fannlo Stearns Davis. SONG FOR MUSIC. My heart LOVE Is the fallen leaf. wind Is tha Love Is the measure; mine nro the fall ing feet. Tet must I dance In time with Its throb bing boat. Yet am I blown In the woods of grief. MAD though the dance, unstirred and serene you move. Wild though tho wind, you nower se- curo and sweet. Lovo Is tho music; mlno are the falling feet. I am tho whirling loir, for tho wind la love.

Newland, the local real estate dealer, Is the latest Roseburger to acquire fine property "dirt cheap," Following the action a few weeks ago of Claude L. Kidder, the local ab- j stracter, In filing a homestead entry on a big slice of waterfront adjoining f the City of Marshfleld, Mr. Newland has Just bought 1 3-4 acres of land ' Inside the corporate limits of the City of Eugene for exactly $15.14. The sale was made by the state school land board, which acquired the tract under the lien selection law. The land Is particularly described as lot 8 of section 30, township 17 s., range 3 west. It abuts the Willam ette River and lies Immediately west of Skinner's Butte. It was excluded from the official survey of the Skin ner Donation Land Claim many years ago, and that it was not acquired by some intending purchaser long ago Is probably due to the fact that the maps at Eugene do not show the tract to be available for purchase.
