For beauty blooming by the

AnJ lift its voice serene and
strong
In perfect day.
For limpid waters when they
flow
By flowered meads and gras-
By banks, 4
And the red West when the sun
Is low
For these things, thanks.
Lord, that mine eyes In wonder
look
Upon the blueness of the sky,
And oftentimes beside a brook, 4

For the south wind singing in 4

The wild geese In .their wedg-

And the everlasting mysteries
For these things, thanks.

O
Several years ago while Pendleton
was under prohibition and was afflict
ed with the same
A Prohibition number of blind pigs
l'reventatlvo. as there are saloons
at present, a local
committee was named to draft what
was Intended as a model plan for sa
loon regulation in the event licensed
ealoona should be restored.
Since that time the main provisions
of the plan have been put into prac
tice in Pendleton. The ordinance ad
opted here when licensed saloons
were restored embodied most of the
reforms suggested, including such
things as open fronts without screens
or painted windows, abolition of chairs
tables, games, music, free lunches and
hack entrances- The limitation of
the number of saloons, the require
ment of surety company bonds and
other features almost too numerous
to mention.
Slnce that ordinance was adopted in
Pendleton we have had peace where
previously there was continuous war,
The chief provisions of the ordinance
have been obeyed and the effect has
been wholesome. No doubt the terms
of the ordinance could be enforced
much more vigorously than has been
done and with good results. Yet In
spite of seeming negligence along the
line of enforcement it Is a fact that
there is much less complaint than
formerly In reference to our saloons.
If reports now current are true the
saloons of Pendleton are following
the law more closely than some other
business establishments. The situa
tion bears out the theory that the so
lution of the liquor question in such
:i place as this consists In rigid re
gulation. It is interesting to note that Port
land too Is trying to get In line. A
new saloon ordinance Is proposed thai
if adopted will work a wholesome
cleanup in that city. It is different
from the "model" license ordinance
r.dr.pied a few years ago which ordi
nance was model in name only. It
may be that equal suffrage has work
ed a scare down there. However that
may be If Portland and other places
w-hi-re the saloon question has not yet
bten worked out wish to avoid prohi
bition they will be safe In restricting
the number of their saloons and in
placing them on a clean, orderly bas
is under the terms of a law drafted In
the Interest of society and not In be
half of saloons or the owners of sa
loon property.

The, athletic prowess of the redskin

football team has been feared by the
big eastern elevens. James Thorpe,
from Carlisle, last summer won the
honor of, being the best all-around
athlete in the world.
A star in the field of art Is Carlisle

Carlisle training school. He is a sing

the home of music by the power
and sweetness of his voice. He is a
tenor, and intends to enter opera.

Here is a tip for those who lean
toward physical culture and take
strenuous exercise
with the Indian
clubs or in gymna

do not get the result you wish Join an
elocution 'class or take up public
speaking. It affords splendid physi
cal training so its champions are
claiming. '
It Is reported that President-elect
Wilson gained 14 pounds during the

while a person is speaking the mus

to play and the work is very bene

generally robust appearance of men
who do much' public speaking. They
are usually hale and hearty. The well
known good health of opera singers
Is attributed to the same source.

He had reason to be astonished.

An income of $800 lYom an Acre of
Iind.
In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside the editor of the Gardening
department says:
"A reader, stirred up by my state
ment of $200 returns from one-eighth
acre in vegetable plants, especially
cabbage and celery, asks me what
may be his chances of securing an
income of, say, $800 an acre on two
acres planted in these or similar
crops in the suburbs of a small city.
"An income of $800 or $1000 from
an acre of market-garden crops,- and
especially of vegetable or " flowering
plants, Is not only within the reach
of possibility, but also of reason, and
is actually secured (and more, too)
by many gardeners near our cities or
villages. Hut so much depends on
loi'al conditions, management, skill
of the grower and seller, that I would
not give any guarantee. The chances
are good enough, but for the right
person only. Begin slowly, gradually,
carefully, and expand as you see your
way clear. Do not let my figures
tempt you to run in debt for land,
giving up another business that has
so far provided a living. Use discre
tion and common sense."

"How did you get along when you
told your father of our engagement?"
asked the timid young man.
"Oh, dear!" she answered, "it was
dreadful. I'm so ashamed of papa.
I don't believe he has a heart,
"Was he unfavorable?"
"That's no name for it. When I
talked to him about our living on
love in a cottage on $7 a week, I
couldn't make him listen to reason
at all."
Not a Cannibal.
"And how would you like to have
your steak cooked, sir?" said the ever
polite waiter.
"Fine!" replied the diner, "I never
did care for raw meat."
AN ADVENTITIOUS PENNY.
(Written by Mabel Main, Aged 10,
South Yoakum District No. 13.)
I was made in Philadelphia in
1909 and waa brought to Oregon by a
man who gave me to a little girl. He
told her she could buy a stick of
candy.
She took me to her mother and
told her to put me In her bank that
set away upon a shelf where there
was a lot of other money. There I
lay in the bank for many a month.
The little glr! would unlock the bank
and take many other pennies out
and lock it up again. I wished she
had taken me out but I still lay there.
Pretty soon her little sister wanted
a stick of candy. Then she took down
the bank and gave me to her sister
and she went down town and gave me
to the merchant.

And soon a lady came and wanted
three yards of ribbon for her little
girl. She took the ribbon and the
merchant gave me to the lady for
some of the change. She took me
and said to her little girl, "I got you
the ribbon and I will give you this
penny." She took me and went out
on the beach of the river and lost
me in the sand.
I lay there In the sand and the
waves washed over me. Pretty soon
they washed over me so hard that I
lay in the water
About a week after that some girls
arid boys were wading on the beach
and found me.
They said they thought I had drop
ped out of a ship. One of the boys
took me and I helped to pay for some
horse shoes that his father had to
buy for his horses. He took me to
the blacksmith and bought some
shoes. He gave me and some more
pennies to the strong man. He put
me In his dirty pocket and went to
work again.
There I stayed In his pockets as long
a time as I stayed in the little bank of
the little girls. He then gave me and
a lot of other money to hla wife. Ono
day she was going to Sunday school.
So she took mo along with her. When
the secretary came along with her
little basket and took me. I stayed
there the rest of my time.
