Col. John Bentley may be past his
three score years and ten but his eye
and his faculty of appreciation are
undulled by age. Witness the follow

other day when they detected him
watching intently a claaslly clad young
lady crossing the street. "Some
men," said the veteran, "take a great
pride in fast horses, some take pride
In prize dogs, others take pride In
fumy chickens, but the Joy of my
heart has ever been a pretty woman."

The Delta Is serving an Ice cream

A Good Alibi.
Mayor Best, doubtless with no such
li tention. did the firemen a grave In
justice when he had a man arrested
a week ago for overstepping In the
dance. The firemen gave their an
nual ball last week and were around
selling tickets. They found mans
nien quick to seize upon the recent
arrest as an alibi. "I'd like to. go,"
they'd say, "but I'm afraid of being
arrested."
3 (Note Mayor Best has ruled that
the one-step or walk dance is perrect
ly proper as long as the dancers turn
at the end of eight steps, but la in
decent when more than eight are ta
ken without turning. We therefore,
moved to preserve hlg dictum In song
and hope that these verses will be
kept carefully by the library so that
posterity may know something of
the dark ages of the dance. Ed.)

A Story of Afflicted Ones.
Some few weeks ago when District
Attorney Fred Steiwer was suffering
from a lost voice, he was trying to
converse with Henry Collins, who is
a little deaf. The attempt appealed
to the sense of humor of Ben Bur
roughs and Bill Wyrlck and they
laughed uproariously.
A short time later Steiwer and Bur
roughs were in Portland at the same
time and were members of a grille
party, Ben gait up to dance, bumped
into a passing couple with such viol
ence that his glasses were knocked off
and broken. Now Ben Is so near
sighted that he can't see the end of
his nost without his specks. There
fore, his wife had to lead him from
the grille. As he passed Steiwer, the
latter twitted him. "You will laugh
at my lost voice, will you, you old
owl," he said.
