Welcome Clouds ' The. heavens are a dull drab today, thanks to a kind Providence. - ' There is strong indication of a drouth-breaking rain dnd all humanity throughout Eastern Oregon await the foil of the thunder and the flash of the lightning with an ecstatic joy that resembles youngsters waiting to see the fireworks on the night of a Fourth of July celebration. ; " When we have plenty of rain we grow tired of cloudy weather and wish for the sunshine, but when we go as long as we have this year without moisture human beings seel; rain through prayer and strong desire. It is very serious, this, drouth that we have been going through. In Union county and in Wallowa county it hns not been so bad as in other portions of Eastern Oregon, but at that it has been bad enough. In the hills the hunchgrass has seeded lit a very slight growth, but good rains now will bring up i( lot of feed, and peace and plenty will again prevail in IpiB greatest of all sections of the nation Eastern Oregon A .lOl'RXAI.IST l.V Clll ltCII.

All will njr.ee that this old veteran of the west knows u western show when he sees it. Toddy he telephoned th-2 Evening Observer from Walla Walla and said, "I have seen the layout for the Winninjr of the V.c;;L pageant which 3 en rose and his crowd are staiiitf in Walla Walla Wednes day and Thursday, and it is tfoinj? to be the greatest show the west has ever seen. Tell everybody that for a western drama there has never been its equal." This sort of a message from Joe Woods means plainly that the show will be all he claims for it. Walla Walla ! people have gone at this pageant with a community spirit and .the result is bound to be a thorough success. All j Kastern Oregon people who drive to Walla Walla tomorrow I or next day will see a show that will abundantly pleas them.

Occasionally the remark, "everyone is his friend" is carelessly made. But l such a thing possible? Wo doubt it very much. Friend ship grows and blossoms not in generalities, but in explicit i.U and distinct thoughts which canno't encompass largo : i umbel's of persons. j Emerson defined friendship by attributing ..to it the characteristics of truth and tenderness. Metween friends, rjich may be sincerely himselr, without the protection of kIiiiih or affectation often assumed in ordinary intercourse. "My friend," said Kmersim, "gives me entertainment with out requiring me to stoop, or to lisp, or to mask myself." Kiirthcr, friendship needs tenderness to tide it over rough loads and hard fare, which are bound to come. The end of friendship is for aid and comfort through all the rela tions and passages of life and death, ",'ithout truth and tenderness a friendship cannot survive such experience. ; This kind of friendship seems of necessity to be limited to tw persons. With the presence or a third! self-conscious-ness enters in and the fine sincerity of the former rela tion is lost. Jt is difficult enough to find two pei'sons whose interests and personalities so complement each other vh to make real fritndship possible. A third would compli cate tlio situation Hopelessly. I Someone will say, what of the clubs and lodges where j men grow intimate with each other? Such exist in mini- burs, it is true; but real friendship as defined by Kmerso;i j i-jjimot develop in the midst of a group. The whole of each ! lijeinbor's pei-soiiality could never be glased by the others, i The law of one to one, as Kmoisoii sums it up, is the prac- i lvc ami consummation of friendship.
