But when Portland wholesale houses change a name to suit them selves, the question of "What's in a name," la hard to answer.

IT MAKES A WHALE OF A DIFFERENCE MAUPIN flABAGE IT SERVES YOU RIGHT" A Merchant From Agency.

Ooo oooooooooooooooo oo 0 o PICKED UP ABOUT TOWN o QOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOQ $1,900 In Money Orders. Oh yes, Maupin spends all its money at home In a horn. The re cords of the postoffice at this place show a total of $1,900 money orders sent out of town for the month of October. The majority of those or ders went to the big moil order houses, and the cause of that amount going away from home is the fact that those houses are not sparing of printers ink, but flood every home with advertising telling what they have to sell. . Homo From Caliornia. Bob Muir has returned from a visit of over a month at California ports, arriving in Maupin on Sun day. On his way home Bob visited Lately there has been a spread of counterfeit half dollars pieces around Klamath Falls, and it appears one of those pieces strayed from the south and landed in Maupin.

George Tillotson emulated a tele phone lineman Sunday and Monday, restringing the telephone wires on a pole removed from the front of his garage to the other side of the street George took no chances in falling, using a life line like a regular pole climber. x Tom Henneghan has a grievance. On several occasions lately he has i been on the river and each time has hooked a big one. Each time the big one deliberately walked away with Tom's spinner, taking several yards of line with it ' A short time ago we were told by a sheep herder that John Mannion had contracted to oversee a big sheep ranch in the extreme eastern part of this state. Our informant rather stretched the facts for it develops that John Mannion has gone back to his old job at Fargher's, and we take it for granted this section holds more for John than any other port There are men who have tacked onto them names which seem to be somewhat out of place when the men themselves ore considered. Percy, Waldo, Launcelot, Gordius, Achilles and many other such, are ; pretty names but sadly out of place when hooked onto a brawny blacksmith, lumberjack, sheep herder and like followers of hard work. Wedo not wonder at men objecting to such names, prefering pain "Bill," "Jack." "Tom," "Dick," etc., to the more euphonius cognomens. x The move to close the river for a quarter mile each side of; Oak Springs in order to protect recently released trout from ' the hatchery, does not meet with the approval of local fishermen. It is a wrong trove and one that should be fought It is all right to close certain areas, bnt areas should take in sufficient terri tory to enable the small trout to have a chance to go up the river in coune' of their infancy. Close the De- chutes for at least one mile each side hatchery, and that would be short enough distance at that ; ' X' - The change in orchestra for the dance tonight (Thursday) need not have the effect of driving contem plating attendants from coming. The ' music will be as good, if not better, than that usually employed at Legion dances and comes with guarantee to that effect V' Trappers have set their falls In many places on the river.. They have attached their traps to long pieces of wire, which have tripped many fishermen and nearly caused them to take involuntary baths. Better watch out, you trout catchers, that the trap j wires do not cause you to take a 'header into the Deschutes hil jangling along ats banks.
