If the' plans that are being formulated by the barbers of this city materialize that will be the estab lished price for a shave In the near future. Although you will be re quired to pay more for a shave, the price of hair cuts will remain the same, so that will be some consola tion. The barbers give as a reason for this proposed ra'se the high price that they are required to pay for soap. They claim that soap prices have soarded beyond reach, so it's up to the poor consumer again. Rose burg News. President Wilson has pardoned Thomas R. Sheridan, president of the First National Bank of Roseburg, who was setneneed to five years in the penitentiary for withdrawing funds of depositors, according to Sen ator Phela not California. Sheridan contended he had written consent of certain depositors to withdraw their funds. His case was recently brought before tlia United States v'preme court. ( Kissing Is a patrlotlc'duty under certain circumstances. At least, Eu gene girls are pouting thoir lips In the most approved osculatory way to help out their Uncle Samuel. When Guy Koepp, high school student, started for the train today to go to Vancouver barracks, Washington, to go Into service of his country, 26 pretty high school girls stepped up to him and each gave him a kiss and a hug.

Eugene Register. That many deer and elk have died during the winter of starvation is the belief of ' Nate Raines, John Day stockman, who is visiting here. He states that he has seen many of the game animals during tho w.nter and that all have been very poor. They have been forced down from the mountains In search of food and he thinks many probably perished. While driving over the mountains to Pendleton he saw a band of seven and all appeared very weak They seemed to fear to move, he states, be cause of danger of breaking through the snow crust.

A feature of the evening, after the feast, when tho older guests had begun to bre?.k ranks, was the performing of tho military drill by the young rcerults and their sweet hearts Tho girls, who have been taking lessons watching the home guards drill on the plaza and at the pavilion, seem to bo more Bpt schol ars In the art than the young soldiers, to the nierr'ment of the audience.
