Confound those prophetic yellow jack eta they well deserve to be wearing stripes forever! We wouldn't mind a war with Japan it she would limit herself to'taking the Philippines. ' ; It a now np to Colonel Boyd to come over to Weston and see what be can do before the footlights. It's singular enough that the entente allies aren't fond of Germany when she baa such taking ways. It is still an open question whether the unmelodious Carranxa will be able to qualify as Mexico's national bim. , A colored lady at Hood River has registered as a republican, and we'll bet if she lived around here Sim Barnes would call her "sister." ."What has become of the eld-fashioned lad who wanted to run away out West and kill Indians?" asks an east ern exchange. He came and sold 'em whiskey. A Spokane bank president need to pick peaches in the Walla Walla valley tit one dollar a day, but we ve seen some over there that we wouldn't mind picking for nothing. We trust that we will not be eonsid ered harsh in saying that the Chicago man who went to New York to attend a family reunion and there killed his wife and daughter with an axe, waa a bit too demonstrative. No one supposed that the ground about Weston would ever be covered with three feet of snow. Yet it came, and the people are aggrieved and as tonished, while their wood piles and hay stacks dwindle rapidly. War may similarly come snd find tas unprepared, a ridiculously inadequate number ships and men.

Pendleton young people have been climbing a ladder to dance in a barn loft, but were nevertheless uninspired by lofty anpirationa. . Millionaires still have all.the best of it, aa they only 'can afford chill and fever with quinine wholesaling at $2.25 an ounce. We rather fancy that T.

Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Wells, appearing this year as The Wells Entertainers, give one of the most delightful programs on the Lyceum platform. Both of them are finished artists. ' Mr. Wells has had seven years' experience with lead ing Lyceum companies. Mr.- Wells, better known as Msra W. Canover, has had a Lyceum experience covering five seasons. When these two artists were members of the Schuberts, several seasons how excellent a teart of entertainers they company. Mr. WeJls and Miss Canover evidently had soma such idea them selves, and now they have united for life's journey they are realizing the possi bilities. Thtir programs are varied and interesting, including baritone and so prano solos, story telling and readings, vocal duets, pianologues; dramatic, hu morous and musical sketches.
