Editorial
The Pill Box is receiving" the con
gratulations of many admirers foF
its mastiff assistance in keeping
this glorious country out of the
European war. Those in authority
have kindly waited until The Pill
Box had spoken before announcing
any policy and this great famil'
neccesity has indirectly steered the
hand that controlled the rudder of
the ship of state. The entire editor
ial staff of The Pill Box stands ready
at all times to assume any responsi
bility, agree with anybody who
wants to be agreed with and be in
concord with even' element, creed
or division upon request.
And So They Were Married
In obedience to the universal
mandate and innate instinct which
with irresistible magnetism is ever
drawinginto juxtaposition the beau
teous and chivalrous, the brave and
the gay, softly and sweetly as the
song of sirens, but nevertheless un
erringly and eternally as the man
ner's compass is ever seeking the
pole, until in the procession of time
two existences, two lives, two indi
viduals which have hitherto flowed
on each in its independent course
thru the vicissitudes of this mundant
sphere, even as two mountain rivu
lets have rippled on separately and
thoughtlessly over their pebbly beds
thru sunshine and shadow until at
last escaping from their mountain
fastnesses tliev emerge upon the
surrounding plain to blend together
into a single purling brook destined
forevermore to travel as a single
silverj' ribbon of crystalline clear
ness toward the great ocean of fu
turity, two of our Cathlamet ac
quaintances on Thursday last amal
gamated their earthly existence into
one harmonious entirety. Colum

t Miss Susie Snott read a paper on
"Revolution" at this week's meeting
of the Bon Ami Gotta Bo Club.
She said in part: "When I see our
young people hopping and hugging
at the dances Tarn convinced that
their ancestors were monkeys who
hung from the trees by their tails;
when I attend some receptions I am
convinced the kin way back of
"many of the ladies present were all

about their neighbors I am convin
ced that the female of the species is
more deadly than the male. Miss
Snott was encored and read the
paper eight times before being per
mitted to take her seat.
