The following concerning George
McDonald of the Maupin State
Bank we Copy from The Crab, a
piper published by employes of
the U. S. National Bank of
Portland: ;
Seems just like some invisible
some thing or somebody, which or
whom we'll call "Hunch," is con
stantly busy passing out promis
cuous to the effect that whenever
a concern needs a finished product
it'll find what it requires at the
U. S. of Portland; and then Mr
Invisible Hunch goes and puts a
'mg in the ear of one or the other
of our nest and most popular
workers aud biff I he's grabbed
and gone. This time it's George
McDonald who's been grabbed.
The Maupin State Bank needed
an assistant cashier, got the hunt h
and did the grabbing. Mac is a
true friend of the whole force, and
we join in wishing him the very
best of good fortune. He was
likewise a. loyal pal of the U. S.
Crab. He hesitated not to tell
the Crab to its face just wherein
its expressions were not accordin'
to Hoyle, and was always hintii g
that the Crabbedy man should
attend night school along with
other ignorant, unlettered foreign
ers. Yes, Mac's kind-heartedness
will be sadly missed. . We'll never
forget how, when the Crab would
see fit to consnlt that big two-ten
dictionary by Gearge's desk, he
wyuld say with withering sarcasm:
"If. you can't find it iu Webster,
just ask me.'1 '
