know history tells us that during the
war between England and the Colon
ies, a general, Marion by name, was
dubbed The Swamp Fox 'because his
tactics were a constant source of an
noyance to tho English Army. One
day an English officer was escorted in
to Marion s camp under a flag of
truce in order to arrange some mat
ters of importance. After the con
sultation, the officer, of course, was
ready to leave but it being the noon
hour, ho-was asked to stay for dinner.
The officer" graciously accepted' the in
vitation but wondered never-the-less
where the dinner was to come from.
Ilmagino his surprise when he dis
covered some one poking and turning
something about in the ashes of a
camp fire, then to see that something
picked up, blown, brushed on the coat
sleeve, placed upon a piece of bark,
passed to the waiter, who, in turn
served it to the officer, himself. What
was it? It wa3 a baked potato. We
are not told whether he ate it or not
but it is said that he went back to
his own lines and then back to Eng
land and resigned. "Because," said he,
"those people will never be con
quered. They've got potatoes over
there and are satisfied." Who wouldn't
be? .
But friends, laying all jokes aside,
I want to say that if you leave here
with tho feeling of having received ;
the equivalent in value of a good old
fashioned, Eastern Oregon, Union J
County, Sand Ridge potato, we will all
be satisfied. You will be getting away
with nothing that isviheap. Gold nug
gets will' not be in it.
When the men at the shops, went
down in their "jeans" to produce the
sheckles with which to purchase "Old
Glory" that they might at any time
of the day see their flag floating in
the breeze, this question of attendance
was brought up. With a heartiness,
