(Unitc-1 P:er) Yale !3 the only one of the big eastern teams which will no be in ac tion tomorrow as it will stage its weekly game this afternoon In the Yale Bowl with Virginia Poly as its opponent. , Harvard has the Massachusetts Ag gies on its card for tomorrows tus sle; Princeton will line up against Lafayette at Princeton; Cornell will tackle Bucknell at Ithaca, and Dart mouth will do battlo with George town at Hanover. The Navy and Army elevens will be in action, the former against West Virgiania at Annapolis J and tho cadets against Trinity at West Point. Perhaps the most important con flict will be staged in the far West, where Nebraska university and the Oregon Aggies are due for an inter sections! clash at Portland, Ore. These teams have been supreme in their sections for some time and the result of their contest will be inter esting especially to middle and far western bootball devotees. Nebraska's coach recently left the coaching job at the Oregon school to take up the same duties at Lincoln, and this will adil to the rivalry between the schools. The b:g nine will be well repre sented on the day's schedule, every school with the exception of Indiana being billed for combat. Chicago should have easy sailing against Northwestern, while Minnesota should have no trouble with South Dakota. Wisconsin will meet the Haskell In dians at Madison, and Iowa will clash Purdue at Iowa City. Illinois and Ohio State will battle in a conference ga ne at Urbana. A TALE OF TURRET. Queer Things That Happened In h Name of tho Constitution. The Ignorance of the Turkish masses concerning poll l ie n I questions, says Sir Edwin Pours In "Forty Years In Con stantinople," Is shown by certain In cidents of the revolution of 1008. Tlio banials. or pollers, hi the towns, like the peasants In the, country, when they heard that his majesty had sworn to be fa ltli ful to the constitution, In quired what It was. Was It a person? Was It a new caliph? And very few could give any clear explanation. Tho words "liberty" and "equality"' meant something good, although they could not have said what To some they signified general license. Two English friends of mine were motoring outside Smyrna when a num ber of Turkish boys set upon them and flung stones nt them. The Eng lishmen gave chase and caught tho principal offenders. Tho eldest was asked why he hnd thrown stones. "Ilurrlet var," was the reply. "There's liberty. We can do what we like now." . The 'Englishman replied, "Ilurrlet var, and I am at liberty to give you a good thrashing, am I not?" One of the boys said yes, ho supposed that would be so. but he hoped the liberty would not be used. The Eng lishman replied that It would not bo used that time, but If the offense were repeated he would use It. to the fullest extent. The workmen on a newspaper during that time asked for a large Increase of wages. "Ttut why?" asked the owner. "Because tbenc Is a constitution." The tramway men struck for higher wages, and tho only Justification that they put forward was that there was now a constitution. Yet men of all classes cheered In the lustiest manner for the constitution. Throughout the month of August smuggled tobacco wos openly sold in the streets nt a very cheap rate, buyers and sellers alike considering that the constitution allowed men lo sot aside the law that had iniiile t lie sale of tohacco a govern ment monopoly. , HOSPITALITY IN SYRIA. A Custom That May Have a Bearing on a Passage In Scripture. Approaching his hoped for guest, a Syrian engages him In something like the following dialogue, characterized by a glow of feeling which the transla tion can only faintly reveal: "Ennoble us by your presence." "I would be ennobled, but 1 cuiiuot accept." "That cannot be." s "Yea, yea. It must be." "Xo, I swear against you by our friendship und by the life of God. I love Just to acquaint you with n; bread and snlt" "I swear nlso that I find It Impossible to accept. Your bread and suit are known to all." "Yea, do It just for our owu good. Ity coming to us you cmne fo your own home. Let us repay your bounty to us." "Astnghfero Allah (by the mercy of Godi I have not bestowed any bounty upon you worth mentioning." Here I he host seizes his guest by the arm and wllh an emphatic, "I will not let you go." pulls at him and would drag him bodily Into his house. Then the guest, happy In being vanquished "with honor." consents to the Invita tion. Do you now understand fully the meaning of the passage In tho four teenth chapter of Luke's gospel? "A coil II I n inn n mil ilc a great supper, and bade many, and they all Willi one consent lipgan to make excuse And the Lord said unto the serv ant.

Finally I have arranged with one of the largest loaning companies (a company that has $85,000,000 loaned to the farmers of the West) for a real Rural Credit loan based on a 20-year amortized plan. 20 equal payments of but little more than current in terest pays off your entire debt. ? j You pay no commissions, choose your own date of payment and pay at your own bank. You can pay any amount of your loan at any time- This plan figures you a saving of nearly 3 per cent over the usual farm loan made heretofore in this county. If interested call and let me explain fully. Geo. H. Currey Opposite Y. M. C. A. Hione Black 2001 TIE WHO MOVES REAL ESTATE 10(5 Elm Street La Grande, Orejron
