He had seen a painting of the wlth stewed JrT iSL'
nobie lord, and, "God bless me!"
he said, "this Mr. Lowther is his
very spit and image."
"rie couldn't be the Earl's son,
could her" This from Henry
Jewell, a cattle breeder.
"By gum! I have it:" exclaimed
Nat Poole, editor of the Chronicle.
"Why, we-all must be blind. The
family name of the Earl of Lons
dale is Lowther. I read that just
the other day, and this fellow
niust be his nephew, or some rel
ative, if not his son."
Related in some way, I guess,"
said someone else. "But why is
he coming here to buy cotton?
It's a good paying job, of course,
but 1 shouldn't think he'd need
" "He doesn't need it," chuckled
Joseph Hutchinscui, with a laugh.
"Them young Englishmen are up
to all kinds of pranks shooting
tigers in India and running little
shops in distant places, and ex
ploring, and conquering native
states, just for the fun of it. I
wouldn't put it beyond him."
When the day of the Earles'
dinner came around Mr. Lowther
was considered, not only a close
relative of an English lord, but
also a man of wealth and culture.
Notwithstanding Kitty Earle's
anxiety over the dinner, and her
gnawing fear that something
would go ridiculously wrong in
the service, or that some dish
would be burnt to a crisp or hard
ly cooked at all, everything was
just perfect or as nearly perfect
as one might reasonably expect.
Following the custom of that
epoch there was a prodigious
amount of food. The dinner be
gan with turtle soup; Augusta
with stewed corn. The desserts
included huckleberry pie, sweet
potato pie and corn fritters with
syrup.
Before the guests went to the
table a glass of sherry was
served, and during the dinner one
might have a choice of Madeira
wine or beer. There was neither
coffee nor tea, but milk was given
to those who desired it.
"D'you know old Balaam Gun
ter, any of you?"Joseph Hutch
inson asked during a lull in the
conversation. "I mean Balaam
from across the river In South
Carolina." His glance circled
around the table and rested on
William Clayton. "Oh yes, Wil
liam, you know him, unless my
memory's wrong." .
"Old Balaam," said Mr. Clayton
ponderously. "Surely. I used to
know him well. Bought his cot
ton, but I haven't seen him in
several years. Has anything hap
pened to him beyond the usual
mishaps of life?"
"I saw him today," said Mr.
Hutchinson. "He passed through
Augusta in quite a caravan. Ba
laam, his wife, sons, daughters,
niggers, horses, cows, goats, and
even some coops full of chickens.
Going to Alabama. I thought
maybe some of you had seen him
and his folks."
"I did see them, I think," said
does he expect to be? The only
inhabitant?"
"Balaam said that this spring
a newcomer settled down within
half a mile of his place," Hutch
inson said, "and there are several
neighbors within two or three
miles. He said he felt hemmed In,
so he's on his way."

there three big covered wagons,
pulled by oxen?"
"Yes, three large wagons. Con
estoga wagons," Mr. Hutchinson
continued. "Old Balaam and the
men rode horses."
"The older man had on a leath
er coat and a coonskin cap with'
the coon's tail hanging down his
back."
"That's right. Well, 1 was rid
ing around the town as I do every
day, to look after things, when I
saw Balaam and his string of
wagons ambling along, and I
rode with them as far as Rocky
i creeK.
I "There are so many Carolina
I people crossing that bridge every
l day on their way to Alabam, as
ithey call it, that I don't pay at
tention to them any more," said
I William Clayton. "Lots of land in
j the middle section of South Caro
lina is worn out. Poor farming
methods. The land is not rich in
j the first place, they never rotate
I the crops, never use fertilizer, and
the rains wash the soil into gul-
lies. Then when they can't make
a living any more they start' for
Alabama to ruin some more
land."
Visitors were Mr. and Mrs. Ora
Cox, Tumalo; Mrs. L. Breeder,
Mr. and Mrs. M. Stoffel and Roy
Burright. Mr. and Mrs. Fritz Doer
fler, Mr. and Mrs. B. Cegarski

Mrs. E. Langerin. The couple was

Several farmers of the district

Navy Programs
Prove Popular
With selective service classifica
tions being changed in many dis
tricts, inquiries regarding oppor
tunities for draft age men in the
navy have been pouring into the
Central Oregon navy recruiting
station. Bend, announces Chief
Specialist Paul H. Connet, recruit
er in charge.
The navy representative empha
sizes that men of draft age Cannot
enlist Jn the navy, but he points
out that the navy has two pro
grams for which these men can
volunteer, through their draft
boards, If they are technicaly and
physically qualified and are not in
a deferred status by virtue of be
ing engaged in essential work.
One such program is the radio
technician course, which offers a
chance to enter the navy at the
advanced rating of seaman, first
class, and to learn the science of
electronics and its use in radar.
This is a ten-month course, the
equivalent of two years of college
engineering. To qualify for this
schooling the applicant must have
a background of high school
mathematics and should have
studied at least one of the follow
ing subjects: physics, shop prac
tice, electricity or elementary
radio.
. The other program for which
draft-age men can apply is the
Seabee enlistment program.
