TIIU HISTORY EXHIBIT OUTSTANDIN'G among the features of Die celebration and dedication Saturday was the display of historical articles and papers in the room set aside lor that purpose in the- new courthouse. The committee composed of Akm-'s Pitchford and Mae Haldwin, that was responsible for net ting this exhibit together is to be congratulated. It was not only satisfactory it was astonishing. It was astonishing tlutt such a wonderful collection could be gathered together in such a short space of time as three weeks. Public spirited folks from all over the country contributed, valued posses sions to the exhibit and must have been proud when they say! what a fine display their things made. To give the ex hibit proper display and protection, merchants of Roseburg dmptied show cases and sent them over to the room. '. Everyone was genuinely interested in the collection. Entejvyig the room out of curiosity, they remained to see it nil and go back and see it again. It was with real difficulty that-those in charge closed the doors at the end of the day. People were reluctant to leave. You just can't see all of an cxhjbit like that in a few minutes or even in a few hours whrch brings to mind the thought that it is a shame the doors had to be closed on that wonderful collection and not again reopened. The things had to be returned and the mer chants need their show-cases. There may bo a permanent display result from this beginning, however. Members of the;county court saw the popularity of the feature and the keen and lasting interest people were taking. It may be that the court will give space in the courthouse to a per manent collection and provide funds so that showcases and frames can be purchased. Douglas county is one of the most historic spots in the slate. Its history should be pre served in the security and protection of the new court house. . ! il!.jiiliM.3n' ' The prune crop has been having all the attention dur ing! the last few weeks but the turkeys did not stop growing.

CLOGGED EAR CANAL IS EASILY CLEARED Dr. Copclnnd Wurns Aguinst the Practice of Inserting Things Into tle Eur, for It U the Most Common Cause of Wax Deafness. By ROYAL S. COI'ELAND, M. D. IT uttcil States bi'i'fitor from New York. Former Committloner ol H'Mth, Hew York Clttl. TO HAVE anything interfere witn the heariog is disagreeable In deed. Usually deafness is a matter of very slow progress. Some times, however, like a clap of thunder, there cornea on sudden deafness. The most common cause for this experience Is the movement of a plug of wax into a new position. This wax has been accumulating for months, perhaps for a year or more. A bath may permit the admission to the ear canal of Just onough water to displace the maBS. Or the water softens the edRes of the ball of wax and the detached material may fill in the limited space. The deafness that comes so suddenly may disnpjwnr just as quickly. Efforts at relief by poking the ear with the little finger may be suc cessful. The wax is moved away from the car canal, or turned just enough to permit the sound aves to get past it. It is rare for such an accumulation of wax 10 take place. It is safe to say that It never ill take place if you do not fuss with the cars. MatlV tiersnrtR nrnrtipn tha hnH hnltit nt in. sorting into the car canal, a toothpick, hairpin, or even the end of a pencil. Such an Instrument may readily push the wax into the ear.

The quail is such a beautiful and userul bird that, toothsome as his flesh is, he Ih worth more to look at and devour bugs and insects than he is as an article of food. He will eat potato bugs equal to a grosbeak; eat slugs as well as the crow; and is never accused of doing damage to grain fields. They ougut to be pro tected by law all the year and be careruly ted in winter, where there is much snow, In the Interest of agriculture to say nothing of beau ty and pleasure. These birds remain in pairs throughout the year as songbirds and eagles do. The Dob White quail, always known in the eastern slates, has now been introduced in to the west, and practically covers the whole country. He Is so well known that he hardly needs de scription. He Is ten inches long and a beautifully set up bird. He has many calls; one of them Is In terpreted, "1-want-you!" with the accent on the "you." Another, when getting together after fright, is in terpreted, "Are-you-uear?" with the accent on tue "near." Of course, everybody knows the call so fre quently repeated, from whence he gets the name "Bob White! Bob White!" The mountain quail and the Cali fornia quail, well distributed on the Pacific coast, do not have these calls and are well known by their long black crest and rich coloring. All quails lay from ten to twenty eggs, on the ground. The eggs vary from nearly uhlte to reddish brown. The chicks can follow their parents the moment they are out of the shell. Bob White Who Is it calls from off the hill With earnest, kindly, cheerful will? Who Is it hallooa to his mate. To let her know Ills happy fate? Who tells to all surrounding world Just where his banner is unfurled? Who tells his name and tells It right? Uob White! Bob White! Bob White! Bob White! Who watches when the danger stalks, And young are threatened by the hawks, And little chicks have run lo hide Are scattered far on every side? And when there Is uo cause for fear Will cry "I want you! Are you near?" You mHy be euro you have it right, When quick you say, "Bob White! Bob White!" Who hunts his love In fields o clover A gallant, tender, ge'ntle lover. Keeps crying out on fragrant air Still seeking for his sweetheart's lair? Who calls ami calls and calls again Still searching over hill and glen? And calling sweetly, "1 want you!" "It is Hob White." You're right that's true!" Who eats the vile potato buss? W ho vies with crows to find the slugs? Who Is tho bird (ho farmer loves Loves bettor far than all the doves? That wakes nf fee thin in us all Affords us scenes wo oft recall When we sit round the fire at night? Boh Whlt! Bob White! Bob White! Bob White!
