Anions the many cxcclk'iit things La Grande has is a jodtfe of the Dramatic Order of Knights of Khorassan, which is related to and is a part of the famous old Knights (of J'lvlhias order. v . That order has been holding a special session in La Grande and among the noted visitors attending was (Jus Weese, imperial l'rinec of the D. (). K. K. lor the United States, Canada anil Hawaiian Islands. After witnessing the work of the local drill team and inspecting the entire ). 0. Jv. K. organization here he (stated without reservation that it is the very hest he has jhvii; that the members are alive to the importance of the order they represent, and that La Grande takes the' top most rank in all the lodges of that order throughout his domain. The Imperial Prince is not a man who is given to spontaneous praise. A member or lodge must win the spill's if they are to be worn, belief the kind 'words littered hive true and unmistakable meaning. La Grande has always been proud of her Knights of I'ythias lodge and its I). O. K. K. attachment. If is more so now that all know just how fine an organization we have here as compared with other cities. 0 Why thd Delay? THE OFFICE CAT Likely, it is not unusual for the stomach specialist to find an enforce ment officer who is suffering from a severe case of confiscation.

Anyhow, there's no traffic jam on the straight and narrow way. A-man. may boss his first wife, but his second mate is usually enptuin.
