A very flattering account of Corvallis and its students, written bv one of the Portland High School boys about their recent trio to our citv. was read in chapel Monday morning by Miss Crawford. The Cauthorn Hall reception eiven Saturday evening was a success in every way. A literary nrocrram formed a part ot the evening's entertainment. After the program games were played until refreshments were served. In the came Railroad, -Miss Maud Roberts and Mr. Hayes won the first prizes. The prizes were pretty souvenier spoons of Cau thorn Hall. The booby prizes were awarded to Miss Maud Graves and Mr. Selleck.

Selleck; vocal solo, Prof. Shaw," tableaux, "An essay on Boys," A view of Bridal Veil Falls" piano duet, Misses Horner; violin solo, Mr. Melhase. The view of Bridal Veil Falls was produced by holding up a bridle and a veil for a short time, then letting them fall. , Prof. x Horner produced no small amount of merriment by exhibiting a number of articles the boys bad stolen from the girls during the year, telling who the boy was and giving the article back to the voung lady. AO the oanquet Dr. Withycombe spok tiDon the subject "What I would do if I were a young man in Cauthorn Hall", and Mr. Rawl son, representing the club spoke upon his observations upon how the young men went about in selecting their partners for the occasion. The principal feature of the evening's program was a paper bv Mr. Weatherford, which consisted ot jokes upon many of the students present. Villiage Improvement Society. The Gazette is indebted to Prof. E. R. Lake for a statement of. the work contemplated by the Village Improvement Associa tion of our city. At a recent meeting the question "How can we get the town to look its best for 1905?" was very earnestly and intelligently dis cussed. It was decided to offer a series of prizes to be awarded for the best kept yards, lawns and grounds during the spring, sum-. mer . and -fall months, and also for making the best and most ex tensive.improvement in one sea- son. All persons competing ior these prizes must be members of the association. It was further decided that those competing for prizes shall have their premises photographed by the association's photographer, without charge therefor. In the early spring an enter tainment will be given, and stereopticon views of back-yards, alleys, eic,, win ue presenicu su that each one may see how "the other fellow's" premises look through the camera. On the 22nd of this montn the National Grange will visit this city. There will be people here from every state in tne Union, and we should strive to cive them a favorable impression of our really pretty little city. The best way to do this is to clean up the alleys, streets and private premises in the city. The court house janitor gives a good demonstration of how this can be done. Let public officers and our citizens generally, find a hint there and go and do likewise. Jury List. The Circuit court convenes in Corvallis, Nov. 28.
