When you want to sulk, and pout, Cut it out. When you wish to sneer and flout, Cot it out If you send cruel thoughts away, They will fly back home and stay, Cut it out. Never find fault with the cold, Cut it out. Never envy another's gold, Cut it out. You get all that you will take, Your poor bed you yourself make, Cut it out. Evelyn Hubbard Watson, Greenville, 111. HELP ACCOMMODATE THEM. In order to properly provide for the accommodation of visitors to the Hound-Up and district fair well or- I ganized and persistent work has been done by the committee having this ta-k in charge. Everything possible i being done to secure sleeping and j eating places sufficient for the entire j crowd. It is a difficult undertaking i i.. view of the Tromised attendance a ' the show and the members of the accommodations committee are entitl ed to the cheerful support of all lo cal people. Help the committeemen in every way possible. It is of first importance that all visitors be given good sleeping and eating accommo dations. They will not be in the grandstand all of the time. IT IS AX IMPROVEMENT. Many of those who seek to pick flaws in Governor West's prison pol icy overlook the fact that the old time policy was full of faults. They are not Just to the new plan in that they see only its imperfections while seemingly they forget that the sys tem being supplanted was even more indefensible. The parole or honor system as In augurated by Governor West and now being tried out to a final conclusion, is attracting some attention from the general public and also some from In terested politicians, says the North Yamhill Record. That the .system, evolve! in so short a period, is al-rta-ly perfect, is unthinkable; but that U has deep and abiding merits every humanitarian must admit. It is ' founded upon the right principle, viz., that of encouraging and developing the good In men until it exceeds and overcomes the exil in them; rather than crushing out the good in them urtil it is reduced to the low brute level of the crime for which they were convicted. Convicts are human, some of them a pretty good sort of human, too. Worthy hearts outside beat warm with love and hope for some of them. The hardened, the de generate, the irreclaimable must somehow be sifted out from aranng these If Justice, the great end of law. Is ever to be attained. To those who would condemn the honor system be cause it conta'ns Imperfections, I would respectfully refer our laws, our system of Jurisprudence, and our present prison system, and say, "If you mu-t condemn whatever is im perfect, at least be Just and condemn all together. Leaving out all ques tions of the financial advantage of convlrt labor on our highways, .and all consideration of health and bet terment of the convicts, and treating the subject purely from the stand point of public safety, we must admit that Ardenwald Is on the map as well as J?alem. The few who have been convicted of crimes are not all the men and women who are ready to commite crime not by a long shot TVe are not protected, by any means, If every convict were Immured In a dungeon for the rest of his natural life. Honor In politics, honesty In dealing, chnsteness in conversation and life, a higher standard of indi vidual virtue among the men and wo men who now occupythe center of the stage, will have a greater effect for public safety, In their influence upon the young and the morally weak than any iron bound system of retribution that human ingenuity has over invented. in (iiu.s wo.vT run. Few will be surprised at the prompt lenial by Justice Hughes of the re port that he will seek the progressive support for the presidential nomlna ticn. It is evident that the report owes its origin to reactionary sources and was started In hopes of turning support away from La Follette. When the former governor of New York was named as a member of the supreme court It was generally taken meaning that he would never seek the presidency. Had Hughes Intend ed running for president against Taft he would never have accepted a post on the supreme bench. The fight for the republican nomination will be be tween Taft and Ia Follette and while the president has all of the advan tages in the race it may be far from a walkaway. vx ugly spectacle. It is not likely that Beulah Blnford and her "own story" will make much of a hit even as a moving picture at traction. Glossed over ns it may bo the story cannot be anything but a tale of sordid debasement and of such the public does not approve some f:iple to the contrary notwithstand ing. Nor will much further atten tion be given young Beattie and his cigarettes. Feattie and. the Binford girl are dregs in the social pool and while the world is willing to look at them in amazement for a time it soon becomes disgusted with the rtght, for it is ugly. The Portland delegation and the Spokane delegation may meet on neu tral ground in this city during the Kound-t'p. Pendleton la close to Portland because that city is the me tropolis of this state. But there 13 ;ilso a tie that links this city with the "arg?st and most aggressive city of the inland empire.

The roses all were pink and red Before the Bumble Bee, A lover bold, with cloak of gold, Came singing merrily Along the sunlit ways that led From woodland and from lea. He paused beside an opening rose, The garden's pet and pride .She burst in flower that very hour, While wooing zephyrs sighed No smile had she for one of those And hope within them died. The ardent Butterfly in vain On radiant wings drew near; The hapless moth ;n vain grew wroth. The fair rose leaned to hear The deep-voiced stranger's low re frain That thrilled upon the ear. She gave her heart in love's delight And let the whole world see. But, ah! one day, away, away, Sped truant Bumble Bee: , 'Twas then the red rose turned to white So the tale was told me. Ella Wheeler Wilcox. TO HER LOVER. Oh, love me well But love me not alone! Love the hot sword, the banner and the song, The crowded way of sorrow and of wrong. The dream no tongue can tell. The enemy prone! Yea, love not me a'.jne But love me well! Oh, serve me well, But serve not me alone; Serve all who will, the oppressor and the oppressed. Serve all who will not; bare thine aching breast Even though thou hear love's knell Go bravely on! Yea, serve not me alone But serve me well! CLAM CLOSES ON RAT'S TAIL. Bangor, Pa. Hearing a great rack et in the cellar of her husband's res taurant, Mrs. J. Prltchard rushed downstairs, where she located the trouble in the pile of clams and upon a closer investigation discovered that a large rat was held a prisoner by a clam which had closed its shells over the tall of the rodent. The unique "rat trap" was placed on view and excited the interest of a large crowd all day. Anxious Father And you could support my daughter? Suitor I have two strong arms.

"Games, you remember, go by a kind of immutable rotation as much a law of childhood as gravitation of the universe. Marbles belong to spring, to the first weeks aftrr the frost is out of the ground. They are a kind of celebration of the season, of the return to bare earth. Tops be long to autumn, hockey to the ice, baseball to the spring and summer, football to the cold, snappy fall, and I seem to remember that even such games as hide-and-seek or puss-in-the-cornor were played constantly at one period, not at all at another. If you played 'em out of time, they didn't seem r'ght; there was no zest to them. Now, most of these game periods were determined Ions ago by physical conditions of the ground and climate They stem us back to na ture. Cramp the youngsters in tho artificial life of a city, and you snip this steifi. My theory may be wild, all wrong. Yet I can't help feeling that our games, which we accepted and ab orbed as a part of the universe as much as our parents or the woods and fields, were a part of that nature which surrounded us, linking us with the beginnings of the race. Most kids' games are centuries upon centuries old, they say. I can't help believing that for every sky.-craper we ereit we end the life, for thousands of children of one.more game." Old hundred had l'stened closely to my long discourse, noild'ng h's head approvingly. "No doubt, no doubt," he 3aid. "I shall hereafter regard the Metropolitan Tower as a memorial shaft which ought to bear an inscrip tion, 'His jacet, Puss-in-the-corner.' Yet I saw some poor little duffers on the east side the other day trying to play soak with a tattered old ball, which kept getting lost under the push carts." "They d'.e hard," said I. From "Mumblety-Peg and Middle Age," by Walter Prichard Eaton in the August Scribner (Fiction Number-. HOW I'OOlt HE IS. How poor he is! He can not ride ! In state where rich men proudly pass; He has not profits put aside, He lives from hand to mouth, alas! He wields no power and spreads no fear, But, free from envy, he can hear The breezes s nging through the grass. He owns no yacht, no gorgeous car; No wheels would stop if he should die; He lacks the means to travel far; There are no cheers when he goes by; No fair estate to him belongs, But In the night he hear- the songs The stars are singing in the sky. How poor he is! His check would not Be honored in the market place; There are no wonders he has wrought; No courts are bothered with his case; But he can sit beside a stream And hear It sing to him and dream With gladness pictured on his face.
