ESSJSJ TO C shU.mi. re.,1" shortage caused by the comparatively long dry season though in no other region except the northwest could it have been called a drought for there had been fre quent light rains. The editorial is reminiscent of an incident shortly after the turn of the century in the Rogue River valley. There had been a long period of drought and crops were near the wilting point. At a Sunday meeting of farmers held in a schoolhouse it was suggested that prayers for rain be said. So a retired minister was drafted to do the praying. The preacher was a cheerful, kindly, picturesque old man, with a flowing white beard and long white hair and re nowned for his wavering pulpit eloquence. It was a cloudless, breezeless, hot August day and the heat seemed to shimmer. The aged preacher, in his trembling falsetto, began his long prayer Informing the Lord of the hardships and suffering faced by the people of the valley by the drought and imploring a solution by merciful moisture from heaven. He was long-winded and had been praying for some time, when strokes of light ning followed by reverberating thunder brought a regu lar cloudburst. The rain seemed to fall in bucketfuls, for half an hour flooding the roads. The amazed preacher paused for awhile to watch the thunder shower, and becoming alarmed renewed his D,uss school children will prf.?f.r Ayin,R5av . - . t j mk hou hou c"v 'We thank thee, most merciful Lord, for answering for tin cans reclaimed for sal- ao promptly our prayer for rain, but we did not want a vsge. damaging cloudburst or a flood, good Lord, only a gentle drizzle drazzle."

Blackstone, who can make elephants and horses disappear and reappear In his better moments, stood by helplessly while workmen ripped out parts of the wall In his hotel suite searching for the missing little rodent. The hamster, named Poncho, disappeared last Saturday. All the hocus-pocus Blackstone could command failed to locate the pt.
