Now Dig Up will This Gra- Fun is fun, but when that fun results in damage then it ceases to be fun. Monday 'several fun ny young fellows started a water fighUt the Hotel Kelly. They carried the fight to the street and to Johnny Williams' service sta tion. During the melee some one tipped over a barrel of Mo bile A oil, which proceeded to lubricate the floor of the station. Now the funsters will have to follow the command of the Irish section boss, who called to his crew and said: "Now dig, ye tarriers, dig." As an incident of the Bcrimmage Art Fargher was treed in the wellt guess where it was. Outing At Olallic Hhgh Wood is no lover of hot weather, and to escape the wave now sweeping .over this section has gone to Oiallie lake for an outing. He took Bill Staats' boat with him and will try and inviegle a few trout from amongst the tullies and reeds bordering the lake. The restaurant has the appear ance of being modern in -every respect. New silver, glassware, linen and dishes make the place most inviting. These coupled with perfect service, will insure the Rainbw a fair share of the public's patronage. Besides the restaurant proper the place has a fine soda fountain, ice 'box and lunch counter. Soft drinks and ice cream are kept at a temperature which appeals to all on a hot day and a full line of those thirst-satisfiers are kept on hand.

If you are Ihristy and do not want a soft drink,' step in and regale yourself with a nice glass of ice water it's free and pure. Mr. Fraley invites everyone to attend. Some Window Trimmer Mrs. Oliver Resh is showing great aptitude in trimming show windows. On Tuesday she dec orated a window at the Shattuck store, displaying a few samples of late model shoes and silk stO' kings.

Ford and covering 361 miles. . Cornfield Philosophy - h v When you go to a school election With your plans all nicely laid To elect a city townsman Over one who's tried and staid, Then it is best to remember, So it seems to me. That plans of men, like those of mice, Quite often "gang a glee." Circulated Petitions A. J. Mason and J. J.

' Maupin Hits Its Stride Maupin has at lustregained its reputation as having' a winning baseball team. We played Cul ver at that place last Sunday, the game going 12 innings, our team emerging at the long end of a 1514 score. McCorkle pitch ed up to tho 10th, when Lester Crabtree took his place. Our boys were blanked the first two frames and in the third gathered three tallies. In the fifth they got one and in the sixth accumu lated six more. They failed to resister in the next three, but in the 11th and 12th marked up five for a total of 15. Culver went out in one. two, three order for their first five times up. In their sixth and seventh they made two each time and in their eighth the board showed four more. In the next they got two and in the 11th scored four men, making 14 in all. Maupin will play at Tygh Val ley during the celebration, go ing against the Tygh Valley team on the Fourth. Sunday Chicken Dinners The Rainbow restanrant an nounces that, beginning with next Sunday, chicken dinners will be served each Sunday. Take your family to the Rain bow' and save the wife the heat and turmoil of gettiug ud the Sunday dinner.

Making Recovery- Mrs. Ernest Doughty, who has been very ill for nearly a year is now making a rapid re covery, The lady has been con fined to her home for several months, but last week was strong enough to walk to a neighbor's and visit for some time. This will be' glad news to Mrs. Doughty's many friends - Goes Into Chicken Business Carl Pratt has decided there is money in buying, fattening and selling chickens. He is lay ing in a stock oi fryers, and as soon as they are fattened pro poses to ship them to market He will caponize the fowls and feed them up. getting ready for an early market. Slashing Burned The contractors on the right-of-way on the new Wapinitia cutoff burned the down brush and timber Thurday and Friday, nights. : R. T. Mundenhall, - of rUa f Avast r rlitnfirrmant WOE nresentand directed the 8,ashiout aS education centers. k..; AKnnf . mil., nf cutting were consumed. ' Many ranchers were present for the purpose of preventing the fires j spreading to standing timber. More fires will be started when weather conditions will permit. Hauling Bridge Timbers Linn & Son are hauling the timbers required for bridges on the Wapinitia cutoff, bringing them from Bridal Vail, where they are cut. It seems funny to us that the road department will go to the expense of cutting and hauling timber from a distance, when there is an abundant supply of first class timber right at hand. They evidently work on the theory that the swamp timber if superior to that of the eastern slope, although the latter is fully developed and as tough as is grown anywhere.

Mr. Slusher, the successful ; per Flat He has officiated as:4 school director at Dufur and at Ramsey, and his administrations have always been marked by ' close economy. He is thorough-; ly conversant with school law and will keep a watchful eye on : all matters wherein the expendi tures of money is concerned. : He is not so close that the inter est of the district will be hamp ered, but on the other hand will see to it that all the monies ex pended will bring a dollar's worth of return. Dr. Elwood, the retiring mem-. ber of the board, has put in 30 years as school director. He has . seen districts shake off swaddling clothes and blossom with teaching corp of large porpor- tions.
