Reports of 1 centenarians were not convincing to people with a taste for Statistics and documentary evidence. That doubt, however, j lias been pretty well swept away Recently there have lieen a lot of news items about people alive or departed from life at' anywhere from one hundred to one hundred and thirty-six years of age. It will be observed, however, that practically all of these instances of extreme longevity have to do with people living simple, plain uneventful lives, so far removed from the world of action and progress that no attention is paid to them until their death. Is a long life so greatly to be desired when it can be said that the most important part of it is its end? Far more desirable seems the ideal represented by the deathbed words of Theodore Roosevelt who finishd his 1 Course at an ago comparatively early, "I have hied aslull lit and a happy one." : Properly estimated, Roosevelt lived longer) than any score of these vaunted centenarians put together. STRAW HATS TOMORROW ) In the spring a young man's fancy doesn't turn to thoughts of clothes quite as aptly as does feminine fancy. Particular and vain as he may bo about his apiearance, there is not the varietv'of temi)tations in wearing aunai ol mich as meets the woman's eve. But when summer conies a mero man can!

SI Old hats are hard to discard. They are familiar, friendly things, regardless of how dirty and disreputable they may j be; and the average male can't help feeling a bit nclf-con- i scious when he goes before the public gaze all decked out ill a new bonnet. So he conspires with other men to do the same thing on the same day. v lie notices how nice the other ! fellow looks in his straw hat and decides that maybe there's jnuch to be said in favor of his own improved appearance. fach day he wears it he becomes more attached to it. As it gets a little soiled and a little out of shape, it becomes all I tho more familiar and intimate. And before he 'known it, 1 lie is desperately attached to the straw that was once strange and new and when the first of September rolls 'round, he i develops a hatred for the stylo decree that insists he shall discard il for a fall felt. His only salvation is to get started . ij with his straw as soon as possible, to enjoy its summery Jl charm and comfort as long as possible. Tomorrow is the day : i in La Grande. Get a straw and tlie summer will be off to it flying start. . Of course you'll want one of these smart new straws to start the . new "Straw-Season" right.
