ALL GUESSWORK Henry J. Cox is a government weather forecaster at Chicago, and he might have remained un known to the world had he not come out in the Chicago papers a few days ago with words that will cheer many million. He had heard, as many of us around Maupin have heard, the predic tion that the years 1926 and 1927 would be years without summer. He says such statements have caused farmers unnecessary worry, despite the fact that such predictions are all guesswork. "No one can foretell the severity or mildness of winter," he de clares, "and the so-called experts .who predict a winter so long there will be no spring or sum mer are doing the American people an injustice. It is all bosh. " That is a cheering meS' sage, and from a man who knows about the weather. Yet if we do happen to have a backward spring, as is often the case, we suppose his life will be made miserable by the "I - told you so's." A NEW PROTECTION Three years ago Uncle Sam de clared war on imported bulbs, particularly those from Holland. He gave American seedsmen and florists plenty of time to get rid of their stocks, and now an em bargo has been put on. A few selfish ones are claiming it is un fair. But Uncle Sam knows his business, and he knows that dangerous insect pesta have been coming to this country in im ported bulbs, pests that work havoc with our wheat, corn, cot ton, tobacco and other crops. We got the boll-weavel, the corn borer and other pests from the Unexcelled For Baking all kinds of old world, so why not stop im portation long enough to show foreign growers that we want nothing that jeopardizes our agri cultural interests? Once again Uncle Sam is right and if the bulb people over here are real Americans they will admit it and show a proper spirit of coopera tion. , AN EDITOR'S SONG We read an editor's "Psalm of Life" a' few days ago, and it fits our own case so well that we are passing it on to our readers in hope that they, too, will enjoy it and then furnish such relief measures as we feel the song suggests. Here it is: 'How dear to our heart is the old silver dollar, when some kind subscriber presents it to view; the Liberty head without neck tie or collar, and all the strange things which to us seem so new; the wide spreading eagle, the arrows below it, the stars and the words with the strange things they tell; the coin of our fathers, we're ' glad that we know it, for some time or other 'twill come in right well the spread - eagle dollar, the star spangled dollar, the old silver dollar that we love so well." We recently heard of a man not a thousarid miles from Mau pin who complained that some one stole his spare tire while he was out stealing some wire from a fence to fix his chains. The only difference we can see between the California gold rush and the Florida land rush is that the people who go to Florida take the gold with them instead of bringing it away. When you hear of a man get ting stung by a fake stock sales man you can wager he is one of those fellows who "hasn't time to read the newspapers." We heard a Maupin women say the other day that her hus band had made a bad swap had quite smoking and taken up growling. We have just heard of the lazi I News of Interest The second basketball game of the season was played by the Maupin High school team versus Antelope team, January 15. The game was a close one up to the of the first half, the score being 7 to 8 in favor of Maupin. The second half was easy for Maupin, the score at the end of the second half being 11 to 24 in Maupin's favor. 0 A hard practice game was played by Tygh Valley and Mau pin Monday night, Maupin win ning by several points. Other games to be played in the near future are: Metolius vs. Maupin, at Metolius, January 22 and Antelope vs. Maupin at Ant elope, January 29. To date three standard clubs have been organized for Maupin boys and girls. The sewing club will be directed by Mrs. L. D. Kelly; the cook ing club will be under the leader ship of Mrs. L. S. Stovall, and the poultry club will be in charge of Mrs. L. B. Kelly. 0 The grade teachers are plan ning a program in which pupils will appear before their parents and friends on the evening of March 13. The members of the geometry class, since they completed their study of plane geometry with the close of the fall semester, have arranged to replace this subject with typewriting. Helen Weberg and Alda Pugh are beginners in typing and Olive Turner is an advanced student. Mr.Geiser spent Saturday fix- 1 est man in Maupin. He quitj chewing tobacco because he found it too much work to ex pectorate. The reason some Maupin men do not cut their own hair is be cause they are afraid they may amputate the last lock. ' There are few divorces in homes where there is jam on the piano keys and cookie crumbs aroun d the cupboard. An Indiana man paid $500 for one bee. But lots of men have paid more than that to get stung. ' Charlie Chaplin and hit whits Chow in a icene in hit new ten-reel comedy, "The Gold Rush," which it being heralded everywhere at the greatest laugh special ever made. It it scheduled for early fall releata by United Artists Corporation. B. Lester Kelly wants to know why it is that when a man gets home and his wife finds a lead quarter in hi3 change, he acts as though his wife was to blame? From the Schools j ing the furnace in the primary room so that it will not allow smoke to escape into the room. First Semester Music Test Grades 3-8. In the song recognition test the following pupils made 100 per cent: Grades 34 Ralph, Bernice and Leroy. Grades 56 Mary, Wilbur, and Alva. Grades 78 Mabel, Doris, and Lelah. In the music reading test the following made A for a grade: Grades 34 Irene, Bernice, Ralph, Douglas. Ruth, Theodore, Jean, and Leroy. Grades 5 6 Wilbur, Harry, Charles, Mary, Alva, and Willis. Grades 7-8 Lelah, Doris, Aliene, Ada, Gladys, Vernon, Mabel, Rex, Ethel, Nina, Fannie, and Kelton. The first six in the last group made grades 100 per cent in the test, grades 7 and 8. Maupin school is fortunate in having a high percentage of musical pupils and especially to be envied in 'the opportunity for first class musical training with Mrs. Bothwell, whose pupils ranked above grade in reading and melody recognition. A kec 1 interest in the work of this subject on the part of pupils who are beginners in music, has brought the grades up to a very satisfactory standard for the time they have been working. None of Mrs. Deeg's room have been absent or tardy this week. That room is" preparing a sandtable to represent com mercial imports and exports. 1 mh ikJ , feUL lit 1 w i ! jl I I Turn Waste Into Profit Sheep will keep the fields clean eat the weeds turn waste material into mutton and wool, and mutton and wool mean mouey.
