There is ever a something singing always; There's the song of the lark when the skies are blue, And the song of the thrush when the skies are gray.

THE IMPOVERISHED RICH fi F it is true that charity is II sweet then it should be confined to no particular set or class. The charity most frequently spoken of is that displayed when rich or well-to-do people give of their worldly possessions to others in less fortunate shape financially. In the large cities it is the custom for ninny people to do this and -ery fiequer.tly they have large sized photographs taken of themselves while in the act. Brt the field of charity is l.-road. Quite often the rich are the ,,r( 3 - 'io hou!d he given succor, pi'-ertv of the heart or soul h o'tcn found in costly :manrions v hi humble eot Irges, inhabii'd by people whom sot" call lowly, may be Tkh indeed in character and happiness. While people with money to spare are being organized to aid those in material want it would be extremely appropri ate and most Christlike could tomething be done by the poor n behalf of the impoverished kh. IUST WHAT THEY NEEDED ITERANCES by British ft. newsDaners indicate a feelino- nf fPRpntment at I'resident Wilson's frank and v . ' p, - reasonable message to the war ring nations. It is very easy to know what is the matter in Enfland. The "Britishers are peeved because our president did not show him self a pro-ally. The English 'an see no good in anything that is not denunciatory of the Genran. They think the Uni ted States should be aligned on the side of the "mother country." Then the president's mex-age was indeed needed. It may open their eye- in several re spects and be of considerable educational value. THE LANGUAGE OF AMERICA AYS a circular from the fcj Imreau of education at Washington: "M.tk' a Chnstma-4 present tit vour countn- by inducing one nea. If yon cannot do that,, teach yourself the true spirit of Am erica the spirit of fair play and equality; the spirit of hope and helpfulness. America is America it is neither pro-ally nor cro-Gennan. Those who enter our open door should leave their prejudices behind them. This country is the cure, not the disease. Immigrants are not the only people who need to learn the language of America. REMNANTS OF ART a singular exposition is be 1 ing arranged in Paris, says an exchange. All avail able art treasures from the war zone, especially those injured by missiles or vandalism, are being exhibited in their trun cated condition in the Musee of the Petit Palais. The territory from which these treasures are drawn are the Pas des Calais, l'Oise. Marne, Meuse, Vosges, Meurthe-et-Moselle and Cote d"Ar. Among the exhibits are the St. Gervais by Rubens, from the Soissons cathedral with a big rent cut into the canvas by a bullet; the Mignonne Baig neuse by Chatelet (XHIth cen tury) from the church of Vic sur Aisne ; a ninth century mis sal (the only copy extant) from Maurupt, a bullet having borea its way through the leaves; the famous Saint Antoine by Vandyke from Reims; the Sainte Genevieve from the ca thedral at Souain, attributed to Guinot in the eleventh century ; a galaxy of headless statues in stone, wood and metal from Valencienne, Tourcoigne, Dou al and Feaux, notably the Twelve Apostles from Arras, and the three Magi from the Lille cathedral. A family of artists have un dertaken to put together what fragments could be found of the famous rosacee (stained glass rose window) of the ca thedral of Reims; and arms, hands, legs and portions of the thorax drapery of other sta tues are there collected with attached legends telling of their origin, and in a few in stances accompanied by photo graphs of the entire figures, before destruction. The rep resentative of the Paris Figaro who visited the novel exposi tion, says : Nothing more tragic can be imagined than this charnel house of art: Figures recapi tated, faces lacerated, arms and legs shot away. The old museums of Lombardy and Toscany are beggared in their visualization of vandalism; nor can Cologne and Nancy show a more destructive hand. The remnants of art will g down into history, and will need no commentary; all that need be done is to affix the dates 1914 1916. And withal this ex hibit is only a reminder of that "Teater One nOW Opened at the Hague where truncated art is , , t, . -, shown from Belgian centers.

Is dangerously 111 with lung fe ver: we learned the sad news just as wi were going to press. Deputy Sheriff Taylor has sold his residence In Pendleton to S. M. Pen nington of Putter creek In consider ation of 00. Dave Wright says he has made ar- rangements to sell pools on Christ-; mas day on matrimonial races to be run at Pendleton on that day. We . learn there will be several weddings In and around Pendleton during the approaching holidays. Marvin, the son of J. H. Turner, is sick with that dread disease dipth therla. On the 24th of November C. Z. Owens and wife lost by the dreadful scourge of dipththeria their only daughter, Martha, aged nine years old. On Monday the third of De cember their little boy Jimmle died, aged 11 years and on Sunday the 16th their only remaining boy, William Bradford, aged one year, passed away. They have now but one child left out of four in the last three weeks. Surely some remedy should be provided to check the ravages of this disease. ' FROM THE PEOPLE THE DESPAIX DAIRY. Pendleton. Ore., Dec. 22. Editor East Oregonlan: In behalf of my customers and in justice to my business I beg to make the following statement regarding the article in last evening's paper, in re gard to the condition of my dairy. In the first part what I here say, I do not intend as a criticism of the desire of the city officials to make Pendleton a clean and wholesome city. But very much to the contrary, for I am as anxious that it should be so as they. Although I have, been handicappsd by being inside the city limits in some what pinched quarters with quite a few cows, I have kept my corral In good condition, always ranking well up to the head in alstate inspection, which an examination oS those rec ords will reveal. In following the growth of my busi nesaI have constantly been compelled to add more stock without a corres ponding increase In corral room, and the result has been when the wet weather set in I have been unable to prevent the stock from tromping the corral into mud. I have been intending to move out side the city limits for some time, but was unable to secure a suitable loca tion until a month ago whereupon 1 made arrangements to move, and in doing so I was compelled to let things go, with the result there was com plaint. As to the cleanliness of the milk and cream I market I extend an invi tation to anyone who desires to in vestigate. Yours truly. CHARLES DESPAIX. 1.1110 SING Al) CIIFKR FLAG.
