MONDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1908 OLD TIMKSOLD DKBASIS. , The red sparks up the chimney fly Old times, old dreams in sight: We've told the cloudy day goodbye Rest, and a winter's night. Old times, old dreams we knew; Red lips, whose smiles they come again: Bright eyes, like sunlight through the rain, Are beaming now on you Sweet dreams, that never fade away. Sweet stories to repeat: ' Winter, with memories of May, Wears roses dewey sweet! Atlanta Constitution. The editor of the Viaalia (Oal.) Times says: "To a man up a tree it appears that Biggy is not dead, but has just dropped out of sight, and that it will appear that way until his dead body is found," And this is the opinion of a great many people, al though it is not shared by the friends of the missing chief of po lise, says the Berkeley (Cal.) Reporter. v0ne of two things is certain Biggy fell off the boat when in a drunken stupor, or else he has fled the country as some suspect. In either case En gineer Murphy, who was in charge of that police launch, can ex plain the mystery, if he will . ; ' -j - aiiVw mi"Wa Am to relieve the conges worn m busoj. - " . . tv, tion of language that will glut the classic halls will be to read tne speeches by title only, which is about as good a plan as any, ior nobody listens to them anyway. No congressman ever becomes so economical that a club has to be used to force him to vote for an appropriation to be ex pended in his district. 4- I BUY IT IN EUGENE. Of the stores and Shops Advertising In The Guard. IT WILL PAY YOU ; The Albany Democrat says: "This week the Eugeno city council passed three more paving ordinances. It proposes to be the paving city of the coast. Already a wonderful result has followed. Prices are soaring in the city. Residence lots well out are said to be $2000 to $3500, business lots in the air, rents away up, board higher than ever and everything in proportion. The final result will be watched with general interest. Can the city, one of its size, stand the pressure?" President E. J. Ross, of the Washington State Dairyman's Association, and numerous other members of that organization will participate in the convention of the Oregon State Dairy As sociation in Salem Thursday and Friday of this week. Electrio power has been installed in the exhibit hall for working exhibits, and handsome oups are to be given as prizes, appropriately en graved, and assurance of dairy and oreamery exhibits are com ing in to the secretary daily.. Salem people have arranged a splendid reception for their guests. Oregon dairymen will be well represented at the Washington meeting in Chehalis next week. The women of the Pacifio Northwest are taking an increas ingly active part in its development and advertisement, and the Portland Woman's Club will go out on an unique excursion next week, when they will gather the beautifully tinted branches of Oregon grape in quantity sufficient to decorate the famous Ply mouth church of Brooklyn, New York, of which Rev. Newell D. Hillis is pastor. The Portland Commercial Club will send this XaJt by express in ample time to reach Brooklyn by Christmas. . There seems to be some doubt as to whether Andy Carnegie has outgrown the steel business or the steel business has out grown Andy, but there is none about the $300,000,000 in steel trust bonds that Andy has salted down. Many suggestions have been made as to what should be done Ifor our ex-presidents, but nobody seems to care a continental about doing anything for the ex-candidates. This doesn't seem to be exactly a square deal, somehow. Unless the Jap character has been greatly slandered,' the agreement between the United States and Japan, which is said to be only "morally binding" upon the two nations, would better not be subjected to too hard a strain. A widow, with $8,000,000 in her own right, complains that she is persecuted by offers, of marriage. Well, she can easily get rid of the persecutors by offering to loan them money most of them will take it and skiddoo. Only one man can relieve that hankering for cabinet or am bassadorial honors which is wearing to a frazzle the nerves of so many contributors to the campaign fujd, and the number he can treat is limited. The beef trust has not yet announced its advocacy of the proposition to put hides on the free list, but as it is the only real beneficinoy of the tariff on hides that should not count. Win and the world praises so gleefully it stammers; lose and the world jeers and brings out the hammers. Same old world, same old game. CALENDAR OF SPORTS FOR THE WEEK Mondny.

Held in Place of the Regular Preaching Service Last Evening An exceptionally good program was given before a large and appre ciative audience at the Christian church last evening. It was under the auBDices of the C. W. B. M. auxil liary and took the place of the regu lar preaching service, i ne Dasis ior the program was a chart represent ing the srroiind floor of a large 10 room house and It showed that the work of the C. W. B. M. was not alone for women but included-the entire household. Each speaker represented a room and though they were limited as to time, they man aged in the few minutes allotted to them to 'bring out in a clear, forcible manner, the needs and requirements of their room. Such high class en tertainments having for ti.elr object the enlightenment and betterment of humanity can result only in good and Mrs. Wigmore, the President of the auxilllary, and her. efficient workers, deserve a great deal of praise for last night's success. Spec ial music by the choir and others added not a little to this literary treat. Following is the program as rendered. Scripture reading, Mrs. Wigmore, Invocation, Mrs. Hull, (Senior). Introduction. Mrs. Thos. Bailey. Reception Room, Mrs. Hobbs, Mrs. Homery, Mrs. Sutton. Sitting room, Mrs. Hardin.' The hall, Miss Effie McCallunr. Scripture quotation, young people. Parlor, 'Miss Belle Keeney. .
