A Kind Word From Kugrenc.
Parker Special. .
Mrs. T. A. Bradley, a- former
resident of 1'iirktT, writes ihut they
are well pleased with their new
home in Eugene. Williahi Jr. ia
working with the contractors und
builders, Williams & Leonadr, who
are doing considerable carpenter
work in Eugene this spring. Mrs.
Itrudley says the town is on the
b.ui and thw number of new
ImiidiiiKS under coindruutio'i ha
added greatly to the improvement
or the town and enhanced the value
of real estate, and that they could
readily dispose t.f their property
for several hundred dolla-s profit,
but they ate well satisfied and
have no inclination to sell. Mrs.
Uradley also says: "We ansa our
newsy home paper, the E.ntkk
frisk. We have noticed reat im
provement in the sample copies
we have received lately. We will
shortly pay a visit to old Polk and
send in our subscription to the En
terprise." Fine Standard llreed Chlekeus.

The fact is significant and worthy
of consideration.
Time was when 'he front door
yard of many homes whs utilized
as the kitchen garden, cabbages,
onions and garlic flourished near
the front gate and pigs, turkeys
and geese roamed at will in the
yard just outside.
Children reared in such homes
cuid hardly be expected to feel
the same reverence for the parental j
roof as Jid those young folks i

In all natures there Juries a love
for the beautiful. Like all other
characteristics this tract is more
pronounced in some individuals
than in others, but all possess it to
some extent. It is a taste that

yated for it leads to higher ideas
and ideals and tends finally to
wards a more cultured and refined
civilization.
