Nu. C: 24-L'G. What a lonjr way the world has come since good folks were horrified by' "September Mom." r While the agitation is going on in favor of paving the Old Oregon Trail from Ontario to The Dalles, why not broadcast to the Easterners-headed-West that , the pioneer trail between the two cities named is an nlmost glass-smooth oiled road nearly all the way ? The Old Oregon Trail makes as fine a road to travel over right now as would the finest of pavement. When "Votes for Women" still was a slogan, the male hportsman managed to keep his wife in a class with the children, so far as fishing without a license was concerned. Now that Milady votes on what is to be what, however, . mere man in Oregon is beginning to retaliate. Two years ago the Oregon legislature enacted a license law for women and now state game wardens have been instructed from Tortland headquarters to be lenient no longer with women who fish without a license. Accordingly a Seaside woman lias been fined $25 for angling without the necessary papers. . ' 7 THE RUN-AWAY SEASON. . Count among the sure-enough signs of spring the youngster from Churchill, Conn., who started forth the other day for the great and glorious west and the adven tures he believed it held for an ambitious, courageous and romantic youth. What if he did get only as far as New York city, where a heartless Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children turned him about and set him safely back iii his father's house? lie had done his part to an swer the call most people hear at least once. ; Probably it would never do in this work-a-day world for everybody with a touch of wanderlust to drop all re sponsibilities and go on the quest of adventure. But the feel of that wanderlust is a genuine pleasure. It is a sure sign of age in spirit, if not in body, when we cease to have occasional day-dreams of the ojn road. Here in Oregon the dreams cannot be of the "wild and wooly" west be cause we know it exists no more. Hut the urge is ever present. ..Why not adapt the feeling to possibilities? Cut out some lioring social function or neglect some family duty one of these fine spring days and make a dash not for foreign lands and scenes but for the nearest mountain wilds or for the woods and fields that lie not far beyond the city limits. Have a grand tramp and holiday of idleness that does you as much good as a spring tonic. Then let the S. P. C; C. of your intelligence turn you back at a judicious moment to the duties from which you fled. They won't seem quite so distasteful as they did before the harmless escapade. lino I sat mn down beneath a slftn That read: -So l'lslilng Here."
