Jt is mil the thing in ilvoif that mnrks tffste or the lack of it. Thn thing which suits its purpose is aiway in goid taite. Nothing elKe is. Good taste requires bright conver sation, one's best stories, ones clever est wit, at a dinner table. Good tust' in a sailboat requires silence peace. When the man at the wheel of boat or automobile is negotiating a difficult bit of passage, good taste requires that tho other people, what ever their private Judgment, keep their mouths tight shut until the emergency is over. There is one simple rule by which to test all things and actions. Does it suit its purpose? Does it suit tho other life around it? j If so, ft is in good taste. 113 III CARD 'i wo Tit Ai.H0HA vi: km;ht ai, Ti:itATIOK IAIK IV niKiit srin.in ij: Jom'I'Ii It nun 1 1 Train I tenia In rliai'K,',V Ponliiml Ttiiin Uh Iturllri' i There Is to be a revision of the O.-VY. time curd Humbly and whllo there in little change it Is esent!e.t lln-t Hie tiuorr' public take notice of tho i-haiigi ui thai proper con nections may JfiiiudeX Train .Vof 2 r whflr Is the new Portland train fisr Sastern OrKoii tut doca local woiVrom llaker til 1 Poiiilill-i wilt witlvfi In m lti-anil imd '.... i:,,0r at I'.-r.O In ihA nvAnluc and will leave westbound at 7 o'clock p. in.
