cle'gyinan fur a companion. One day
they mounted the dtiver's seat of a

stage driver was an interesting char
acter whose conversation abounded in
good stories. The three sneedily be-

ance that they parted at the end of the
journey. "I'm glad ter liev met yet

them. "Yer see, 1 haven't seen a man

Oregon has many blessings and
one of them it that thousands of Its

banner of Christian Kndeavor. The
societies have beeu the means of kind

ami women.
The Oregon Christian Endeavor Un

dreds of young people aie planning to
enjoy it. It is exceptional good for

of over 8,000,000, will be present. He

In societies numbering over 40, one out

The ruilioads have given special rates,

presentation of the receipts thus coun
tersigned the holders will be entitled
to the reduced return rates.
The Southern Pacific offers such ex
