No, we don not understand any such
incoherent Jumbling together of mis
spelled jargon, but one thing we do
understand and this Is that we are
living on a seven tree tops' higher
eminence than is our contemporary
correspondent from Molalla, and can
see farther than he can in most any
direction, and enjoy the bright, warm,
beautiful sunshine while he Is envel
oped in a sea of fog and can not see
afar off and needs an overcoat to keep
him warm in the middle of the day.
Which, perhaps, is the reason why
for 30 years he has climbed over the
William Dart and Haseltine hills to
get to Wllholt when a shorter road
would miss both hills entirely and be
a great benefit to all parties Interest
ed or concerned.
