This I contend. e'en when the high cost queers allot' j. my later years, e en when the prol; iieei-s rob without end. Land of the pilgrims' pride, land where the well known hide goes with the tail. I'll always sing your praise, even if bilk ing jays sting me in fifty ways, taking my kale. Land where the Income tax puts automatic jacks under my wad! If we have griefs and woes, problems' and things like those, sores on our heads and toes, let's look abroad! Over on other shores they have a n ill ion sores where we have one; hark to the foreign howls, see how the peasant growls, wiping his tear wet jowls look at the Hun.

IT COST the people of the United States $10,000,000 for congress to vent its spite on the president and play pol itics to discredit the executive for that is what the spec ial six months' session cost, and what it arrnmnlished. This is the amount the taxpayers pungle up for Lodge's little game of killing the peace treaty and the unending flow of words that deluged the nation from self-seeking demagogues. No previous session of congress has ever so distin guished itself by petty partisanshipnone' ever shown ! such a contemptuous disregard for the welfare of the country-and of the world .While the majority in thelr;0 'u! senate siaugnterea the peace treaty and league of nations, j dear, when you come to yourself tne nouse Killed legislation to solve domestic and recon struction problems.

He bent down to kiss me and if I had been sentenced to death for not returning that kiss, 1 could not have i done so. Perhaps I am wrong, but that was another little turning point. Under similar circumstances nothing would have kept life from John's side. I know mother felt that way too, although she tried to excuse him in her gentle way. But It is one of the many little things that I have never been able to forgive my husband, even though he gave me a wonderful diamond ring as my particular share of the profits of that business deal.

The bolshevik! brand of weather present in the Willamette valley throughout November has merely been a mental struggle on the part of tho venerable nother to determine the most strik- manner in which to open up an egon winter. . All the natural elements have had a tryout except a back eaMt bliaaard, but precipitation seems to have tak en the most points. While the K.S5 inches of rainfall throughout Novem ber is only a matter of 1.71 Inches over last November's precipitation, rainfall over the valley has been suf ficient to raise the river ten feet more than the highest stage registered in November, 1918. The highest stage, this November was 16.5 feet, a raise I of C.4 feet In 24 houts.

Because of tho large amount of drafting and estimating involved it has been impossible for the depart meat to complete preliminary on proposed projects in Wallowa . For a moment I could not speak and then I thought that something terrible must have happened to John's sense of protection to the weak.

Nobody ever elopes but once. as he has been to me. Certainly know one thing, and that Is that no one could have been sweeter to mv dear mother to the day of her death. than was John, when he was with her. In a recent play one o fthe char acters suit!: "When I was a youth in college I thought black was black and white was white, and now I know that it is nuilher black nor white, but just a splotchy gray," which is only an other way of saying that none of us is wholly good and, surely none of us wholly bad. That is the reason, I think, that X do not care for plays or stories which make the vlllian so villianous, that yon cannot see one white spot in hi whole character. However, I did be lieve at the time of my father's death that John was the most unfeeling man In the world. Yes although my mother, in her sweet way, tried to excuse him, and I think possibly John thought he was justified in leaving me to face alone the greatest trouble I had ever had. to that time. John was very efficient. He con sulted with the family doctor, and the family lawyer and made arrangements for the funeral that had not been thought of before but which would make things muc h more consoling and comfortable to all of us. , Late 1 nthe afternoon he received a telegram from his office. This ho read hurriedly, and then said Crisply. "How much time have J to make (he next train home?" mother. "Is your mother ill, John?" I asked. He looked at me impatiently. - "No, dear, mother is never ill. What time did you say the next train leaves?" "I I didn't say. I I don't think 1 know exactly!!" Still he did not tell me why he wished to know this, and I was so hurt and stunned that I could not possibly ask him why. He left me standing there, perfectly mute, und walked down the path call ing to the messenger, evidently to ask him if he knew what time the train left. I went slowly Into the houuse. In a few moments -John came up the stairs two steps at a time and still without a word, negan to jam collars and shirts into his valise. 1 just sat quietly watching him. Even then it did not seem possible that John, who had been absolutely tearful in his sympathy when he took my little mother in his arms, should desert iuo in that troubled hour. "Well, goodbye, girl," he said. "T've only a half an hour to catch that train. I expect the taxi any minute." "But, John, where are you going?" I managed to ask. "I'm going home immediately. They've balled u pa big deal at tho office, and I've got to straighten it out . Strange a man can't have his office for five mjnutes without somo- ining going wrong." - . But, John " I broke in.
