A Fw Suggestions.
Editor of tlie Chronicle:
. If yon consider the following of any
interest, use it , if not then you may do as
yoiipleaee with it. .'. . -
What can we do? Where can we go?
TliSse questions have been asked by sev
eral of The Dalles young people and
seem to be unanswered. Before the fire
there were plenty of places, to go to; and
plenty to do, to pass the time among the
younger classes, bnt at present there is
no place to hold socials, dances or any
other class of amusements.
Now it seems to me . that the long
evenings can be passed .Jn a pleasant
.and enjoyable manner by the young
folks by organizing themselves into a
mutual enjoyment society-. The society,
to meet at the homes of the ineipbers in
succession and by" each member taking
part ; in -the evening's enjoyment to the
best of their ability. Some by furnish
ing something in the way of refresh
ments, some bV furnishing music, others
by furnishing games and all by

stepped into the county court room and
while nassine the complements of the
