Passenger Conductor Frank O'Hara believes firmly that the deer should be protected from hunters, but he also believes that huntrs, who are trying to observe the laws, should be pro tested from the der. Yesterday while returning from Lehman Springs he had an experience which aggravated him beyond measure, says the Pendle ton East Oregonlan. While driving along near Bear Valley, he declares, eight fine specimens of deerhood walk ed out Into the road In front of htm, walked leisurely up and down and frolicked about like lambkins In a pasture. He had no gun with him and he Is glad of that fact, although he declares he would have liked to teach the tantalizing little brutes a lesson It he had had a gun, the temptation might have been too great for him and might have worked his undoing for, he declares, he had not traveled half a mile fartl'pr until he met Deputy dame Warden B. F. Averlll. The sight was calculated to make him feel very glad that he was without a gun. tlVltleS in troop a aim IU ummnm um P" THE Florsheimi Shoe For The Man Who Cares AH new styles in Tan, Gun Metal, Patent Leather.
