Guest THE OLD SOLEMN TARLOU t want to e 'em romping on the run and on the chairs. And I rather like to fancy that the home we keep la theirs: like a houae that'a ready for the thing ther want to do. Not one that's stiff and solemn her the furniture U new; Let 'em ban at the piano, let 'em gn it a they choose, . Ther la nothinj here so costly that it wasn't bousht to use. i There waa once a house 1 know of. Where the parlor door waa locked. And If vounKftera stepped inside It all the jrmwn-ups there werej shocked. And If sticky little) flneera touched a UNe or chair. (Copyright, 1S1. There was always trouble brewing, for all thinirs were sacred there; And back then 1 made my mind up that when I were older grown. There would he no solemn parlor in the house I called my own. Let 'em climh the chairs an' rockers, let 'em wear 'em out In Joy, Let the tables and the sofa show the thumbprints of a boy, Let a little girl make merry in what ever way she will. And though furniture grows shabby, I will gladly pay the bill. For I'd rather chairs are battered, than their hearts should know a bruise, And I want no grand piano which the youngsters cannot use. by EdgRr A. Guest.) WHEN THE FARMER PAYS HIS GAS BILL yyNE burden our farmers find it hard to escape is their heavy I I bills for gasolene and oil. iou would be astonished to v-' find how these charges mount Furthermore, such bills must be paid in cash and the money leaves our territory. In more cases than one farmers have found embarrassment in pay ing for oil and gas this year because of necessity the banks are ery conservative with their loans. wow this suoject is one that may he treated irom varying angles but certain facts are plain. In relying upon oil and coal for fuel we are all taking chances. Those products are exhaust ible and a depleted supply, or prospects of such depletion, enter strongly into the price that is charged. We will learn this more and more as time passes. The northwest must have its hydro electric power developed and the sooner the better. In the province ofOntario, Canada, electricity is being used freely on the farms, operating many kinds of machinery, including threshers. When developed as in Ontario, with a view to serving the public, electricity becomes the cheapest and best source of power. Its use is being extended all the time as improved devices are broughtinto use. Electricity is the ultimate power for the industries of this re gion, including agriculture. We have sources of power in abundance and to allow this energy to go unused is a reflection upon our ingenuity. If every time a farmer pays $100 for gas or oil he will write to a congressman or a senator demanding steps that will bring our white coal into use it will not be long until something happens. GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO CATCH UP tew a story from Ashland says that the committee in l charge of the China relief fund has raised fully $975 and will be over the $1000 mark soon. Many weeks ago the Umatilla county Quota of S9o00 was fully raised and local flour purchased with tnat money is now upon the high seas' en route to China. All this is testimony to the generosity of our people but the question arises if hereafter it would not be well to slow uown on such drives until the rest of the country can catch up The new manager of the hotel at Crater Lake is Kernel C. Yens 1 engwald and it is said tne color ot his eyes are like the 'vaters of the lake. With such a color scheme the fame of our wonder lake should spread. Germany will have to work 12 hours a day if it pays its in demnity, says a Berlin socialist paper; ;the Germans worked 24 nours a day when they were mulcting the damage they are now called upon to settle.

"My good friends." began a temner- nnce orator In an English town, "drink Is the curse of the world. All the crimes, all the wars, all the heart aches of the universe can be laid at the door of Intoxicants." He paused significantly and gazed round at his audience. "Oh. my friends," he continued at last, "what causes more misery than liquor?" . Not receiving any reply to his query, he repeated the question, adding: I "Can anyone tell me that?" , The a'lence was broken by the little man at the end of the hall. "Thlr-r-st!" he yelled.
