Editorial
It was the intention of The Pill Box
to place a member of its editorial
staft upon the primary ballot ior some
office but at the last moment, power
ful influences representing- both the
Democratic and Republican parties
asked for just one more chance and
The Pill Box withdrew its candidate
before he was entered. Representa-
tives ot these poweriul lnliuences
made a most solemn vow that their
candidates if elected would conduct
themselves and their offices in such a
manner as to bring" peace, happiness
and prosperity to everv inhabitant
Peace, by requiring everv jackass, re-
gardless of the number of limbs he
may have, to be muffled; Happiness
bv requiring that the expenses ol al
.. . ...
emales be paid out ot the public
reasurv; Prosperity by making a
dime go just as far as a silver dollar
in purchisincf power. Ihe Pill Box,
A. v.-
after the above explanation, does not
deem it necessary to publish the
protocol in full except the concluding
paragraph which reads:
To all of which aforesaid, we pledge cair sacred
hearts to uphold and maintain the same from Alpha
to Omega and that all parts of the constitution of
the United States, the constitution of the atate of
Oregon, the Apostle's Creed or Robert's Rules of
Order in contliction thereof are hereby appealed.
Signed. Ace Robinson, representing the powerful
influences ef the Democratic party. Walt Tooze,
representing the powerful influences of the Republi
can party. Countersigned. J. Hot ta Collie k, Hen

Different Kinds of Fun
The young man from the city and
the young man from the country were
courting the same girl. 1 he)-were
sitting in the parlor with. the object
of their affections. Said the young
man from the city:
"We have certainly been having some run tne
last few days. Thursdsv, we autoed to the country
club and golfed until (lark, then trolleyed back to
town and danced until morning."
The country boy riot to be worsted
followed with:
"We have hail pretty good tlrnea here, too. One
day we buggied out to Uncle Ned and went to the
back lot where we baseballed ell afternoon. In the
evening we sneaked op to the attic nd pokered
until morning."
The girl's father, a hard working
old farmer, who was vainly trying to
sleep in an adjoining bedroom, heard
the remarks and butted in with:
"I was having some fun nbout this time myself.
I muled to the held and gee-hawed until sundown.
Then 1 suppered ui til dark and piped until nine.
Then I bedsteaded until the clock rived, theo break
fasted until it was time to go muling sgsin."

The joys of Easter are somewhat
saddened by the fact that some women
will not have new hats and the So
ciety Editor of The Pill Box always
has a good cry about it every Haster
afternoon. But never mind, unfortu
nate sisters, read this story:
Once upon a time there was a bt-autiful lnIy who
was married U a doctor whose patients always died
and he never received anything fur helping people
into the next world so she never had a new r.snter
hat. SI.e finally died of a broken heart aad was
laid to rest in the villnie cemetery which was own
ed, mnintslned and kent green by the Ladies Ome
tery Association whose membership conaiwted of
wotsrn who could sfford to buy KhnUt hate every
year. After the beautiful lady hud been dead for a
few months, a little dfiidehoe commenced to grew
upon her grave and had many descendants and soon
the whole cemetery wsn covered with them. The
won-ien v. so belonged to the amtociation wer rom
peiled to dig all the dandelions out rf that cemetery
and it required seven months of awful hard work to
do it. So the beautiful lady, who died of a broken
heart, was sleeping peacefully while the others work
ed until they wishe-i they were dead.
If one single sad heart is gladdened
by this story, the author, the writer,
will feel that the great mental effort
required to produce it was no work
at all.
