HALLUCI
NATIONS AND
HUNCHES
According to the calendar this is
January. Otherwise we might
think it April.
The situation at Salem reminds us
of that fable of Aesop's in which the
wind and sun contested to see which
could first make the traveler take off
his cloak. The wind made him but
ton it more firmly around him, but
the sun warmed him up so he was
gfad to take it off. Many things the
legislature might do to ease the
treasury it naturally will not do for
fear of having it. asserted such act
was forced by Pierce with his cele
brated tax levy cut.
In order to get the full measure of
attention, Ormiston should accom
pany Aimee on that lecture tour of
the East.
A man in Minneapolis is about to
drink 85 cups of coffee, on a wager
If the coffee is as strong as the kind
"Dad" Sickafoose makes, that man is
in for a thrill that will last him the
remainder of his life.
The law to make the speed limit
35 miles an hour has passed the first
lap in the state legislature, which
merely means that a greater average
of travelers than heretofore will be
traveling within the speed limits.

REBEKAHS RECALL OLD TIMES
WITH AN EVENING IN COSTUME
After the regular meeting of the
Rebekahs Thursday evening, January
6, the ladies and a few men dressed
themselves in antique and - period
costumes. Bustles and hoops were
in evidence.
Among the unique costumes were:
Mrs. J. O. Andrua who wore a black
silk dress belonging to Mrs. Silcott,
made in 1886. It had puffed sleeves
and was worn with a bustle.
Mrs. Carl Pollan was dainty in a
cream wedding dress which was over
thirty years old.
Mrs. Whiteaker was dressed in a
black taffeta suit, 50 years old. It had
a real lace collar, a loose jacket and
pleated skirt.
Mrs. Edwards was dignified In a
suit with a full flare skirt. She wore
a high black hat, trimmed with real
ostrich .plumes. Among the oldest
things was a cape and cap belonging
to her . grandmother, worn by Mrs.
Herren. The cape was made by Mrs.
BtFrank Crane Says

THE SOUL HAS ITS WEATHERS
Sometimes all is bright and serene,
and other times it is dark and cloudy.
Sometimes it is clear weather and
sometimes stormy.
As in the case of the winds of which
we know not whence they come nor
whither they go, but take their blow
ing as an act of God beyond our con
trol, so our moods and tempers seem
to arise we know not how.
The best we can do is to maintain
our poise as much as possible and
turn toward our ideals when the winds
of pessimism and doubt are upon us,
and remain as equable as we can.
We speak of getting out of bed in
the morning with the wrong foot fore
most It is another way of saying
that we are in the grip of a mood that
is beyond our control.
How many acts of our fellows that
seem to us malicious are simply due
to the prevalence of some uncontroll
able mood in them?
There are some people, thanks bo,
that are always bright and cheery.
One who has this sunny disposition is
to be congratulated, and even more to
be felicitated are those about him. '
If one can be a point of sunshine
in this storm tossed world he has cer
tainly added much to human well be
ing. The alternation of moods, however,
is common to all of us. We should all
expect some dark days and resist
their influence as much as possible.
We can do very much with our will.
Our judgment should tell us the
danger of lotting ourselves go when
"the wind is from the east".. We
should wait until the times change
and not give way to dark humors. It
can be acceomplished if we are but
fixed in our determination to encour
age cheerful moods and discourage
untoward feelings.
We cannot control our feelings, it
is true, but by a set purpose we can
make them strengthen us.
