I Circumstances that are our good fortune an much as theirs, have j made It to their Interest to settle' here. They have established homes and built for themselves many warm friendships. But the "old home," the home of childhood, is somewhere else. Oft must come to them fond recollec tions that go back to the home of their girlhood and their boyhood days; back to the people there whom they knew and loved; back to the scenes that were so familiar and will always remain intimate until the last call arrives to still another home. It is no reflection on a man or wo man that his or her heart retains a place for the old home town and that he sometimes dreams of it. Sentimental? Certainly, but such a sentiment Is good and wholesome and Is the mark of a human heart that ran be trusted and loved. To these of our fellow citizens we address this suggestion: That they take advantage of the idea be hind the coming "Subscribe to the Home Paper" week, In order that, during the coming year, they shall receive regularly each week their old town, newspaper and see the names and hear of the people they used to know in the happy old days When they lived in the good old home. It might also he a good Idea, tor those who are new here, to have this paper sent to the home folks In the far away home town of yesteryear. You know the paper's name, (el low citizen! Send on your subscrip tion, telling that it 1b for "Subscribe to the Home Paper" week and we will see to It that the paper starts going to the home folks during that Week. WSkM 'Phone 609 DR. L. C.

THE ROUND-UP The annual Round Up held in Pendleton was considered a great success II is surely a great surprise to one who has never seen it, and a still greater to one who has never known frontier life, wild horses and cattle. Excitement runs high, and the whole afternoon's entertainment Is a round of breathless excitement, thrills and expectancy. No one was injured in the two days performance which made It doubly successful. The day was perfect, balmy air and clear sky with plenty of sun shine and airplanes Moating like birds over the 17,000 people- Fri day's attendance. Everyone was In holiday attire, making a brilliant display. The Indians were in their native regalia with their beads and feathers and gay colored robes. The sun shone on their teepees, and on the green trees in the background, making a suitable sitting for the oc rislon. The state baud from Eugene played superb music There was an Uta band and a band from La Orande, also. The performances were carried on In rapid succession There was the usual steer roping and trick riding, races and buckaroo performances. The girl riders were remarkable and showed wonderful skill and training. Third Quarter Taxes Total $500,000,000. Washington.

During the one month of his incumbency overhead expense has been cut over $4,000, and this without sacrificing a bit of efficiency.
