Calmly the New Tear came last
night
As a prince of royal tie;
His plane sailed in with the morn
ing light.
Tinting the Eastefn sky.
His raiment was colorful, bright.
With wand and a crown of jewels
twenty.
And with ribbons blue and white.
He carried a golden horn of
plenty.
In every home he made a call.
With an unwritten book In hand.
Good cheer he wished, good will
to all, .
And joy throughout the land.
He searched each room and attic
' and.-, hall, , i
To find good deeds to do, ;
He took old calendars from the
walk",
And hung In their stead the new.
An unkept list of vows In a nook.
Was placed aside with chagrin.
And laid, in its place the nnused
book.
With orders to write therein.
It in this book we write good
cheer, ' :
On every page and line.
We all will have, a happy year,
In nineteen thirty nine.

A request this week asked for
the name of a good-keeping pink

lng the social security' board , to
withhold - certain : unemployment

down for several weeks,' T. Mor
ris Dunne, chairman of the Ore
gon commission announced here
Saturday. '- j
The social security board was
reported to have requested ad
ditional Information-; both from
the labor organizations and Ore
gon officials. "" . '
A telegram received here from
the federal treasury department
Saturday advised a continuance
of Oregon unemployment com
pensation commlssicn activities
pending announcement of the de
cision.
Dann said that -while certitlca-
tlon of . the Oregon law would
not be made' as of January 1,
this does- not mean that the cer
tification would not be made
within a reasonable time.
Funds left over from the third
and fourth quarters of 138 are
sufficient to care for adminis
trative costs for several weeks.
Dunne continued.
La b o r organizations based
their plea to the social security
toard on the ground that the
recently, enacted anti-picketlng
and boycotting law here repeal
ed certain sections of the Oregon
unemployment compensation act.
Hearing on the petition was
held in Washington recently
with Dunne and Ralph Campbell,
the. latter attorney for the Ore

NEW YEAR DOGGEREL '
Hall, glad New Tear! or snow or
ralnl - - . ,
We'll place nothing in your
way!
For we've found 'tis pretty use
less
To ask weather to go or stay.
The weather shows but small re"
speet.
When we give to It advice,
And when we cry hall, the chan
ces are
Its own will does suffice.
i -
But we may hail regardless.
And let wild bells ring out!
The old year passes in the night.
Over the ancient route.
What the new year holds for us
We'll take as best we can.
The world's life is an aeon.
Ours but the briefest span. .
We cannot change the weather.
Why should we o'er It fret?
But we can vent our feelings, ;
We will, too, you may bet! !
A letter comes from Portland,
datqd December 27, 1939. Too
much nerve strsin. '
When the Christmas cigars have
been smoked.
And the Christmas hesd has gone
down.
And a sort of weary contentment
Has settled itself on the town,
And we say it was a great Christ
mas,
Ne'er saw a better, you say.
But you've got a sort of a gladness
When again It's been put away.
It may have been a bit of a atrain,
It may have pained yon to
smile, .
But 'tis lucky 'twas so, more or
less,
For that's whst made it worth
while.
I do not ask the price of a gift.
If the giver wishes me to know, he
will tell me himself, even though
he breaks an arm In the doing; of
It.
A person gains nothing, and
probably will lose something by
talking in a certain rein of a
friend. Behind the friend's back.
I mean. You may delude yourself
with the Idea that the person
spoken of does not know he Is
being thus spoken of. Perhaps he
does not In the exact terms of the
commentary, but he inevitably
senses tne situation.
Relative to the foregoing para
graph, it may be truthfully assert
ed, I think, that there are people
who rather enjoy having their
oacas bitten, in as much as they
enjoy doing , a little biting j of
backs themselves, and welcome
what they consider justifiable
provocation.
Low temperatures in the middle
west. Like spring in most sections
of Pacific coast. No remarks seem
called for.

A recent visitor In Salem her
home town, by the way was Is
abel Childs. While she was here
(she is at present with the Times
at' Marshfield) was fortunate to
meet her. and among other mat
ters briefly discussed was oysters.
It is Isabel's contention that oys
ters cannot be more pleasant and
profitable - to partake .. of than
those found in Coos Bay. I re
fused to coincide with her opinion.
I had a touch of rheumatism in
a leg that day, and I was not feel
ing any too harmonious, i in
formed Miss Childs, perhsps with
a superior air, I dunno, that I was
a native of the Providence river
country, and nobody could tell me
nothln' about oysters. Probably, I
conceded, that Coos bay oysters
were pretty good ; oysters, but I
doubted their quality as compared
to the Providence river species.
And that is how tt happened. On
the stage one day this week was
a pail of oysters from Coos bay.
The oysters were consigned to me.
And the oysters were excellent, I
was surprised- It seems thst Is the
sort of young womsn Miss Childs
is. When she has a point to win.
she wins it. It has been more then
40 years since I last ate' Provi
dence river oysters. Perhaps they
would prove a disappointment to
me. Anyway. Coos baypysters are
mighty good, and thistles to you.
Miss Childs, for bringing the mat
ter so forcibly and enjoyably to
my attention.

boasting in Iowa about the dough-
