Farewell to the dear old Normal School That has struggled so hard to exist, But without the support of the mother state, Has at last been forced to give up its breath.

Monmouth Oregon Hotel Hampton D. M. Hampton, Proprietor ' ' If) years in Monmouth Under Same Old Management Everything strictly firstclass Luck In Golf. Luck, as will readily be understood. Is a factor that enters very largely Into coif. Perhaps the most notable case on rw-ord is that ot Jamie An derson when competing for the cham- nloushln at Prestwick lu IS. 8. He baa iut teed his ball for the seventeenth drive when a little girl staudlug anions the pectators remarked that he had unconsciously placed It Just in front of the proper line. Although nl)dv else had noticed the fact, tills proved u examination by the referee to be correct. Thereupon Anderson totO his ball again in a fresh position well lHhlml the line and made a drive which lauded him In the hole and eventually enabled him to win the match, if, however, he had played It from the original spot he would have been penalized a stroke and have lost the championship. Clearly, then, luck on the links is something to be taken Into consideration whatever nonbeliev crs may say to the contrary' Bailey's Magazine. What He Was Allowed to Do. A Prestirterlan delegate who was accustomed to being sent to denomina tional conventions to extend fraternal greetings was delegated to the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal church. Rising to speak, he said It was al ways an Interesting study to him to note the different receptions accorded him at the conventions of the various denominations. "Whenever I attend a convention of the Enlscopnl church, for example, said he. "I find I can do anything I like except preach In the pulpit. When I go before the P.aptlst church I am accorded every privilege except that of taklnsr communion. Anil, be saw with a smile, "wheu I appear among the Methodists I notice I am allowed every privilege except taking the col lection!" Ladies' Home Journal.
