Songs of Plain Folks
---------- 5-------------------------- 'By----------
James Jewis Haus
[OpenCountiy
I love the open country
With the sunrise on her breast,
When summer days, like soldiers.
Ride out upon their quest.
My heart soars with the meadow lark
On dawn-emblatoned wings.
Thrilled with the open country
And with the song he sing*.
I love the open country—
And the country road at morn,
With foxtail shining down along
The head-row» of the com;
Morning-glories opened,
.Primrote» peeping through.
And all the world just smiling back
At the sunrise, from the dew.
We who drive the furrow
Through the qpen country fields—
Who reep the yellow harvest
Her black loam richly yields—
Weil may we love the country.
And lay no foolish plan
To leave, In search of shadow wealth,
The home God made for man.

Another Cottage Grove has been
found. This time it is in a far­
away portion of the United States,
the Hawaiian Islands.
Fred Loekley, feature writer for
the Oregon Journal, who is spend­
ing a month in the islands doing
special work, writes The Sentinel
that while motoring near Hololulu
one day he saw on a palm tree a
big sign, "Cottage Grove.”
H<-
said that the attraction of Cottage
Grove has always been so strong
that he nearly jumped off the
rapidly moving ear and he is sure
that if he hadn't restrained him­
self he would have crashed into
and destroyed a large section of
Hawaiian scenery.

that Willson stepped out from be­
tween two ears near the Fifth anl

bruised. One ankle was severely !
but not dangerously injured.
