On the meadow-slope and the moun tain-side, Shimmering far and fair?" Evidently the jolly old Frost King has been busy with his magic wand, and the sylvan Bcenes are changed from their once verdant appearance to a riot of hues shading from golden to the deepest brown, and when the weather is favorable many motor and hiking parties sally forth to enjoy the invigorating Autumnal beauties. Recent rains have compelled devotees of the racquet game to move in their nets and we hear no more the familiar sound of "lov games" for these clubs have been metamorphosed into those who look to the Terpaicho rean art for recreation, and now they are pivoting and dipping in doors, and perchance there may yet develop love games, for Cu pid nay lurk near with a net of his own wea ing, but their scores will not be called so loudly as they once were from the tennis courts.

The pcket Is placed on the Inside of the pnlm, so that Its presence is not the least unsightly and would be entire ly unknown were it not for the fact that the little buttoned flap extends through the regular opening of the glove.

WHY A REPUBLICAN WONT SUPPORT HAWLY Frederick Hollister of Coos Bay is every ounce a l ustier and doer. That is why the Tid igs is for him for con gress. LaFol tte's magazine refers to Hawley as 8 "ME TOO" congress man. His record Dears it out. ihat sort of representation never gets any where. Men who do things pay no at tention to passive, negative men. Live ones like to work with live ones. The first district of Oregon is one of the few congres sional districts in Amer ica now that ;s represent d by a dead one. That is why the Tjdings is against Hawley. We are for Hollister in Bpite of his politics. We wish he was a re publican, but we are determined not to sacrifice results for partisanship. Hol lister will represent well the first dis trict. There is very little politics left in Oregon. Thit is well. Let's go af ter practical favors rather than party advantage. Hollister for congress ana Oregon to the front. Ashland Tidings.
