In the old saloon Mr. W'lster made the actiuaintanco of all the cowmen of the region, and It was while living at Waring's home that he wrote one of his most fa mous novels, using the "Duck liar" as a background. Tho publication of the book brought tho saloon Into national notice. Hut times changed. The cowmen vanished from the Okanogan, and the saloon was left Jn Idleness. Then came tho Kpiseopal church, anxious to establish a mission at Wintlirop, but. without it home. "There's that old Duck Car sa loon building of mine," nuggcst.ed Guy Waring. "You can use that." The church did. Illshop Herman Page of Spokane established the church there, with the, old bar as a lectern and the famous old bu-k liar mirror as reredos. Now the church has move.l again, into the old Waring log mansion nearby, where' Kev. Herman Paae. son of Illshop Pag;, preaches to so many of the people that walked through the pages of Wister's book. And the Duck Har saloon has pass ed Into that niche of pioneer build ings where history lias been made.
