Portland Saturday morning. He
left Prineville Thursday night, at

a look over the automobile show,
attended a convention or two and
was back at home attending to
j business Saturday morning.
He speaks in the highest terms of
the night service between Portland
and Central Oregon points. You
leave Redmond early in the evening,
get a good night's sleep and a first
class breakfast on the regular din
ing car after leaving Fallbridge.
"The night trains are not only a
great convenience," iaid Mr. Bald
win, "but also great time savers,
that the people should appreciate."

"Brides' Kensington"

Four young brides Mrs. W. H.
Wirt. Mrs. Boss Robinson, Mrs. D.
H. Peoples and Mrs. L. M. Bechtel!
were delightfully entertained by
the Misses Williams, Thursday after
noon, January 29.
Each guest selected her sowing
so that it could be completed dur
ing the afternoon. After the
various and interesting articles
were finished, luncheon was served,
a bride presiding at each table.
The guests of honor were then re
quested to chose in turn from the
mysterious assortment of packages
which the guests had prepared.
The brides, attired in their
wedding gowns, blushed in a satis
fying manner and proudly displayed
an unusual number of burns and
cut ringers as evidence of their
housewifely attainments.
All voled the afternoon most de
lightfully spent.

Surprise Shower for
Mrs. Otto Gray
Last Monday evening Mrs. C- J
Johnson gave a surprise shower at
her home for the pleasure of her
sister, Mrs.. Otto Gray, who h
just moved into her new home at
Bonnyview Farm. It will be re
membered by friends that Mrs
Gray's home with all the contents
burned last spring.
The many friends of Mr. and
Mrs. Gray were glad of this oppor
tunity to show the high esteem- in
which they are held and to help in
a small way replace some of the
many useful things that were lost.
There were more than one hun
dred guests and each one brought
some useful present. A bridal
shower could not have been more
timely nor interesting.
The hostess had arranged an ex
cellent program after which all
were served with refreshments.
The delightful part about the
shower was that Mrs. Gray came to
town to attend her sister's recep-
tion not knowing that she was to be
the honored guest.

I understand that a report has
been circulated in Prineville that
the road between that place and
Summit Prairie is impassable.
That report is certainly a mistake

Ochoco Ranger station to the P. L.

"A knife lliat cuts butter when It

the reason of t tils Is easily explained
Heat expands metal anil in proportion

the former therefore Is expanded Im
mensely more than the latter. In oilier
