TO A GARDEN
By Robert Louis Stevenson
Nothing the Matter
. With Portland
By EL 8. Haroourt
FRIEND, in thy mountain-side demesne.
My plain-beholding, rosy, green
And linnet-haunted garden ground, ..
Let still the esculents abound.
Let first the onion flourish there.
Rose among roots, the maided fair.
Wine scented and poetic soul . ,
Of the capacious salad bowl.
Let thyme (the mountaineer to dress
The tinier birds) and wading cress,
The lover of the shallow brook.
From all my plots and borders look.
Nor crisp ana ruddy radish, nor .
Pease-cods for the child's pinafore
Be lacking; nor of salad clan
The last and least that ever ran
About great nature's garden beds.
Nor, thence be missed the speary heads
Of artichoke; nor thence the lean
That gathered innocent and green
Outsavors the belauded pea.
These tend, I prithee; and for me,
Thy most long-suffering .master, bring
In April, when the linnets sing
And the days lengthen more and more,
At sundjwn fo the garden door.
And t, being provided thus,
Sh ill, with superb asparagus,
A book, a taper, ind a cup
Of country wine, divinely sup.
herself when Deace comes. .
All this .is one phase In which Portland is profoundly concerned with
the coming enlarged commerce that 1 to be seen 'in America. Another

-Stories From Kverywhere
The Reiura of the Uayflovrer :
AN OLD man of IL fragile ia frame
but with a mind crystal-clear inuta
perceptions, recently thrilled all Ens- ,
land. Bays the Christian Herald, with a
letter wnicn. he - wrote . to the London
Times. The title he choea for his sub-i
Ject was a singular one: The Return
or the Mayflower." In the first few sen
tences, the Idea he had in mind burst
upon the readers like a splendid sun
rise. The Mayflower, carrying St cour
ageous souls, sailed out upon a track
less sea "for conacienoe sake." It came
back, a mighty argosy, ready to take
up the great world struggle alongside
of the allies also 'for conscience sake.":
In both cases the going and the coming '
there was the same high motive, the
love or liberty, justlo. democracy.
-mere are thoughts so beautiful that
they cannot die. Solon, before the
Athenian senate on his defense, lifted
up a hand fined with the sou. "This
black earth .be my witness," he tried,
letting it niter slowly through his fin
gers to the ground, "that I have la
bored to free the soli ot Greece to her
sons." Every Grek and half the world
knows these immortal words.
So the old Bishop of Marlborough,
when he welcomed the coming of the
fleet "of the mightiest republic the
world has ever seen" as "The Return
of the Mayflower," expressed a thought
at once so lofty and so noble that it de
serve to be Imperishable. It should
serve as an inspiration to all who would
follow the highest ideals, for it is by
devotion to the true ideal that the world
must make progress.

very weakness ia proving of use. I
suppose if any pfeacher heard me speak
he would throw up his hands in despair.
For example, last night I started my
talk by saying, "You fellows are not
slackers, or you wouldn't be here. You
have courage and the spirit of adven
ture or you wouldn't be here. You like
a man that has the courage of his con

for my text the saying that Christ re
peats time .after time: "Be of good

two battles that must be fought out in
France, th battle to defeat Germany,
and the battle to go back home clean
and retaining self-respect. Here, boiled
down into a few lines, is the gist of my
talk: - j -

audience. They listened, and they got
what I said. They, had billed me In

The Oregon Journal, the Westerner with
a Punch." The only way I could make
gdod and qualify as the man with the
punch, was to tell them how in Pen
dleton I had. run afoul of a husky fel
low who not only had a punch buWused
K and closed my eye with the -first
jolt, and how next day as my wife and
I went to church, people kept pointing
me out as the fellow who had been in
the scrap, until, thinking it was em
barrassing for my wife, a said. "We will
not go to church. This black eye of
mine is too conspicuous." She said.
"Go right along. You only have one
black eye ; you blacked - both eye for
the other fellow. It's all right"
I I told the story, and after the meeting
fa man came up and said, "I remember
your fight with Sam. My name is Hugh
Taylor. I am from Pendleton. My
father's name is Moses Taylor. We used
to have a farm near Athena. You have
stopped there lots of times when you
have been driving through the coun
try."
A few nights ago I met another Pen
dlcton man at a meeting where I talked.
He is in the engineers. He told me
how the day after they landed In Eng
land they had a tug of war with i
team from the Royal engineers. For a
while they held the Englishmen, but
finally, though the Americans, man for
man, were , just as strong, the men of
the Royal engineers had better team
work ; so they pulled the American team
across the line. A very pleasant little
old lady came up to the losing team and
shaking hands with, each- of the men
said, "You made a good try. so I am
going to pin silver medal on each of
you." Which she troceeaed to do. There
was a lot of cheering and a good many
people taking snapshots of ber pinning
on the medals, so one of the American
team said to an Englishman standing
nearhy, "Who was that pleasant little
old lady that shook hands with us and
gave us the medals T' The Englishman
gave, him a shocked look and saM,
"That, sir, was the Queerrof England.1
When the Pendleton man was telling me
about it he said, "I guess that's going
some, for a man from the bunch grass
country to shake hands with the Queen
of England the day after, he gets to
England. We folks from Pendleton are
some speedy, all right. - .
