The leaves that fall In spring, The bards, of which, never sing; Iid you think of such a thing As the leaves that fall in spring? All the long winter they cling To the sturdy old oaks that grow, Braving the long winter snow, Till finally they have to go. The leaves that fall in spring Are obliged to leave their place,. The trees with new life endowed May put on a springlike face. Old people, stop think a mo- ment, Of the place on this earth you fill. Are you not like the leaves of the oak, The leaves that fall in spring? V. H. Joslin.

Numerous remonstrances have been filed against street paving and on the face of thinks It would appear there Is little liklihood of further street work this summer. However, if the East Oregonian understands the situation the outlook is brighter than it seems. The remonstrances filed were not circulated as a protest against paving i.i any form but .rather against one particular class of paving suggested by the council bitulithic pavement of the same sort as has been laid in the business district. It is the most expensive class of pavement and Is generally considered too expensive for local residence streets. Prom reports this paper has receiv ed from many sources a large ele ment of property owners on all the streets affected are willing to stand for a hard surface pavement provided they can secure the same at prices that seem reasonable. Some of them have openly announced that they signed remonstrances, not to block Improvements but rather to help beat down the price. There are also good reasons for believing that the fight for a lower price has brought results. Both the They're On!

It tones and 1 n v I g orates the e n t ire system. Try it today. Warren company nd its competitor ' the Dolorway concern, show a dis position to meet property owners part way. It is only right they should. Street paving should not be exorbi tant in Pendleton. Labor is plenti ful these days and Pendleton has the raw material for street work close at hand. We have quarries right at the edge of town and a gravel bar almost in the center of the improvement district. Rock and gravel are pro ducts of nature and may be had here just as cheaply as anywhere in the world. The fact Pendleton has this material available should be an im portant factor in bringing about pav ing work at a reasonab'e cost. It will be fortunate if the property owners and the paving companies can get together on amicable terms. Pen dleton needs a vast amount of street work and needs it badly. But the paving men must recognize the fact that unless they offer their work at prices that seem fair to their pros pective patrons it will be natural for the property owners to request that the Improvement be deferred. COMING ALONG. Stan field entertained last evening and did it well if one may judge from the words of praise bestowed by local people who attended the affair down there last night. A few years hence Stanfield will be able to do even better than yesterday. The west end Is still largely in the raw land period. Vast strides have been made during the past two or three years, yet there Is still much to do. Down among the irrigators it is still mostly work and little play. Much money goes out and little comes in. In a few years, however, the story will be different. When the land under the Furnish project, the Gov ernment project and the Western Land & Irrigation company's pro ject gets to producing to the extent of the possibilities the dreams of the settlers will be realized and they will then dance with even greater joyous ness than they did last night. TIIE FLAG WILL STAY. The country and the flag are be set with twin evils. Unrestrained capitalism would make the republic a meaningless thing and with Invisible hand write the dollar mark over the stars upon Old Glory. Unrestrained anarchy as represented by the I. W. W. would tear down the stars and stripes and raise the red flag of dis order and God knows what. How ever neither element has yet succeed ed and wont succeed. For every mis guided tory who would, put the rights o.' plutocracy above ttfe rights of the people there are a thousand to offset his influence and the same is true or every follower of the I. W. W. The great mass of the people are sound of heart and mind and as long as they so remain the country will be safe Bnnches of nice ones, just ripe enough to eat, CENTS the Dozen. For Saturday Only The biggest banana salo ever known in" Pendleton. Our special sales of bananas and oranges are attracting wido attention, and twenty-five bunches have proven t: lc only about one-half enough, so we are offering Fifty lunches Tomorrow 'Regular 40c bananas at 25 cents the dozen is a very low price, and no one should miss this opportunity'. You can see them in our window this evening, for we will have twenty five bunches on exhibition. Come to the Store early Saturday morning, for the telephone will be very, very busy.

With Major Lee Moorhouse as sec retary of the district fair the show this year is assured of success. With the Moorhouse exhibit on display and with the fish and game exhibit plan ned by Chairman Cranston the fair will be worth while even if other things should be lacking. Howerer the general exhibits this year should be better than ever before. V? e have a bumper crop outlook In the wheat section .and the irrigated section of the west end will produce many things for the fair this year. The cat that leaped from the top of the Hendricks building to the pave ment below Is a high diver. The stunt was worthy of a large audience. When Homer Davenport reaches the spirit world he may find several gentlemen waiting for him. Mark Ilanna among the number. Mr. jsmay has sailed for home and It Is safe to say he will tell his friends that the Yankees are a very rude set. The funny thing about the Massa chusetts primary is that the Old Bay state has always posed as being classic. Don't get too friendly towards any particular class of paving. When people get "nutty" they often get picked. VOTES FOR WOMEN A letter from the Woman's Cam paign Committee of Portland, to the secretary for eastern Oregon says: "We are almost over our heads with work down here, but we all stopped to cheer for eastern Oregon when we got the news from the convention at Pendleton" The news referred to was that the State Sunday School convention pass ed a resolution endorsing the suffrage amendment. The resolution not only carried but elicited most hearty ap plause. s Organization work will be started in Union county soon, beginning at La Grande and Union, The primaries will bo held in Cal ifornia May 14. Kegltration is now over and the county clerk's books show that there Is no falling off lit registration of women. Nearly ninety thousand qualified to vote in Los Angeles. Will all Oregonlans please take no tice. Missouri has fallen into line and will vote on equal suffrage at the next election. Shall it be "Oregon next," or either one or all of six others that will lead? i' i "A FUSSY PACKAGE" We have Just received a fresh shipment-of Whitman's Choco lates direct from the factory at Philadelphia.
