I lay no claim to original discovery in making this assertion, but it's true and serves as an introduction for some rambling re marks. The city seems satisfied with its present size , so far as area is concern ed, and is busying itself with improve meut rather than enlargement. And theae is room for improvement. And there is room for enlargement. There are tumble-down, one-story wooden shacks even in the business center on Market street, that are worse in looks than the buildings that went up in smoke in that Sunday afternoon blaze in Cor vallis, a few weeks ago. But these are being replaced by brick and stone structures. One cannot go two squares in any direction on any of a dozen streets on either side of Market, without finding a business block ia course of construction, enlargement or improve' ment. New pavements are being con structed, and cobole stones are being replaced witti asphault. It is surprising the number of Oregon- who find their way to this city. I never overlook the opportunity to impress up on a new acquaintance that the Willa mette Valley has California faded to a ghostly paleness whea it comes to the matter ot scenery and natural resources. Aud in three cases out of five my new found friends have endorsed my conten tion and informed me that they, also, were from Oregon. George Clark, formerly foreman of the printing office at the O. A.

Old Corvallisites may remember her and her brother, Ed. They attended the Agricultural College, before that institution was removed to its present site. 3 .3 Raymond Henkle came in from Cor vallis the other day and we lunched to gether. Raymond is casting about for a good business location, and is now in San Jose. It is a safe wager that he will terminate his search by deciding to re main in San Francisco. No one who has lived here long seems to be satisfied elsewhere. Old "Frisco'' has a fascina tion all her own. She is prodigal in her generosity, and her devotees are ever finding some new charm. Let San Fran cisco know a thing is good, and she will have it or something better. The cost is never taken into consideration This spirit of liberality pervades the. atmos phere, manifests itself in a thousand ways. There is enough electricity burn ed on Market street in a single night to light Corvallis for a hundred years. (If that statement sounds extravagant, it is proof that I am not immune.) The ef fect of themany colored lights is dazzling and beautiful. The stores are brilliantly illuminated. The fronts of buildings are ablaze with signs, the letters on which are formed of red, green, blue or White globes of light, some revolving, some swinging and others alternating in colors High in the air, glowing from the top of some sky-scraper, letters of fire seem hanging from the sky? while the bulls eyes on the street cars throw their search ing rays along the ground. Who can see 'Fricco after night, and not want - to be a moth around her flame? There are but twenty-five letter in the alphabet of a San Francisan: "R" is eliminated. To be sure, they say "ah," here, when "r" is intended; but "all" is only a sound of "a". This is not said in adverse criticism. One grows to like the practice. I find myself becoming susceptable.
