Look out ior the man, who, when he walks, everlastingly holds his head down. Ten to one he is a sneak, of the meanest kind. Keep your windows closad tight so no air can get into your rooms wh"n you sleep and you will s on be ready for the under taker. Just think of the two or three weeks of lovely HUnshiue and beautiful weather we have been enjoying here in Oregon during this month. Whua you sav, "Oh it rains all the time in Oregon " Don't lie about it. We have lots of nice weather in Ore gon in winter as well as summer. Oregon is all right. When you sine do not be afraid to open your mouth good and wide Then speak your words dis'inetly so youmudienrp wi'l know whether you are singing Dalian cr English. . . If peop would learn to ppak the En. glish language with as much expression as they do profane 'aneuage, there would he ereat man v more smarter and fluent peo ple in the world. The Edi'or of the January "Chilooco Farmer and Stock Grower" has descended to Billingsgate and veniality that is unbe coming any paper in the Indian Service, and shows a mind that lacks dignity. The paper is full of coarseness and, to say the least, expressions which Indian pupils should not read. Throw those shoulders back, fill your lungs full of pure air, and stand erect, if you want to be healthy and look well, young and vigorous. , When you walk, walk as if you were going somewhere. Don't mope along, dragging your feet as if you were too tired or lazy to move. It looks bad and will cause others to have a very unfavorable impression of you and your ability. .More Creditable than Victory. Basket-ball Game. Dallas, January 12 (S'a'es'iian Specia'.)
