So when we read that after many attempts man has been able to fly over the north poUx in both airplane and dirigible balloon we naturally start wondering what they'll do next. There has always been moro or less mystery about the north pole, though we have long known it was no different from other parts of the frozen arctic circle. But it is human nature to want to solve mysteries.

He knows it knows that back of the ition is a threat, even though it may not be uttered, that "if you don't come across our crowd will forget vou when it comes to buy ing 'what you have to sell." d;,SS I,,?il! The merchant knows that this kind of "advertising" is not ad vertising at all, but reallv charity. And while there is no law or local ordinance to pre vent such soliciting, their ought i to be for the. protection of our business men, or they should take it in their own hands and en ter into a gentleman's agree ment to make whatever contri butions they wish to make to schools and churches and lodees, next. What is left for them to discover? We know of nothita at all, unless it would be to cen ter their attention pn Maupin and community and see if they can't discover some means of making all of us forever satis fied with our tax assessments and the state of the weather all the year around. We don't know how much is pinned on these days, but we do know if a pin should stick a girl today.she wouldn't have as much trouble locating it as her mother used to. Nobody ever made any money sitting sjill but a shoo cobbler. The man and town which wins are the ones that hustle. The only time a Maupin fisher man will admit he is lying is when he finds out he is talking to a game warden. Maupin kid can do is run in front of a driver who isn't going any where and is in a terrible hurry to get there. " - ) Picked Up About Town ) No one knows where the traffic cops are to be found. A Maupin man attempted to drive his licenseless car on the Wap. cut off the other day and was sum marily stopped by our county road officers, lie explained he had just sent for the necessary document and plates and was let go with the caution to have the car properly fixed up before go ing on the road again. We think his car was wearing "Fiske" tires. "The divided skirt has given way to the knickers thus main taining modesty and insuring comfort." That is Bob Wilson's version of modern styles. The most dangerous thing a P qJ of Bedroom Furniture You are reading publicity day by day, of "we sell for less" and "so do we," "we do, too" and "us too!" Somebody must be wrong! Can every estab lishment sell home furnishings for less than any other establishment? VVfil may you be confused and ask; "where will I get the utmost for my money?" There is but one answer HAMPTON'S! Cecil Woodcock says that play ing baseball is a fine sport, but when it is necessary to run all the bases on a measly littie hit it hits him in the bellows. "I suggest that Ben Fraley open his new restaurant dining room with a public reception and give, our dancers a chance to smooth the new hardwood floor," comments Bill Slaats. "The question of bobbed hair," to quote Dad Richmond, "wor ries the barbers and the hair pin makers more than it does me. HOGS In 1925 Oregon ami Washington brought in from tho eijst of the Rocky Mountains, live hogs and pork products to tho value of SOjOOO.OOO.dO It is estimated that each year, Califor nia consumes pork products to tho valuo of $50,000,000.00 of which 00 is brought in from outside that state. This money is being sent away from tho Pacific Boast territory because our farms are not producing sullicicnt.hogs to supply the Pacific Coast market. Hero is a homo market for a home pro duct that is being overlooked. A few more hogs on each farm will keep a lot of this money in tho west. Think it over.

Write for Free Trial-No Obligation Thrifty Terms French Butler got this off his chest the other day: "If a man came from a vegetable growth lots of them seem to have de cended from pig weeds." Last week The Times called attention to the absence of Mrs. Chalnur's cat from its accustom ed place in front of the fire place. Sunday his catlets was found under the front porch. Evidently had heard the one who packed him off read of his dissappearance in this paper and came home to relieve anxiety. Ralph Kaiser says' the influx of fisherman to the Deschutes last Sunday is a sound argument for the installation of more feed- Many of Maupin'a erstwhile invalids are again on their feet. A liberal doso of "bull" and a stomach full of Chink "yarbs" works wonders with some peo ple. At that the "physic" show did not go away with much Mau pin coin in the sack. Real Grief Jerry hsd been worshiping Rlhol for months, but had nevpr told her. He hnd come often and Muyed late very mte and ahe could only sigh and hope.

It was It :80 by the clock. "Miss Ethel," he said tremulously, "I am golnf away tomorrow," 1 "Are you?" she said with the thoughtlessness of girlhood. "Yes," he replied, "Are you sorry?"

Ancient Egyptian Bread The ancient Egyptians carried the irt of baking to high perfection, at (hough the Greek hlstorlnn remarks of them, "dough they kneaded wltr their feet, but clay with their hands.!' The bread of the majority of the pro pie was made of barley, but white liread made from wheat was used by the rich. The form of the bread ft revealed by ancient monuments. A common shape was a small, round loaf, something like the muffin of to day. Other lonves were elongated rolls," and curiously enough were sprinkled on the top with seeds like the modern Vienna bread.
