It is a handsome creature with lovely plumage, carrying its head proud­ ly and looking from deep black expres- s iv ' eyes, and yet so timid withal. When one sees a pheasant it seems a pity that they should he shot clown so mercilessly, and yet when one eats one he feels diuercntly, at least he thinks there ought to be open season for loose hunters whose game comes his way. It has been urged that an open season of only a month would make the birds more plentiful and that some such relief is needed as they are kept down too close now. Forest Grove, at an election held Wed­ nesday, voted 79 to 10 to bond the city in the sum of $30,000 to provide a water and light system. The project was act­ ively espoused by the II a t c h k t , and that paper is to be congratulated upon the successful issue of the campaign.

The attendance at the Public School is constantly increasing, and by the end of the mouth the school will probably have something near its usual membership. The recent rains will probably cause some to return from the hop fields. While it may seem to some that it was a mistake to begin the school so early, yet when we consider that the district voted for nine month's school, and that there is usually some time lost during the win­ ter months on account of sickness and bad weather it would carry the school very late in the summer if a later date had been chosen. This would work as great an injustice to a certain class of pupils as beginning so early does to those who desire to pick hops. Besides we don’t believe in hop picking regulating the opening of district schools. Apple boxes very cheap at Greer’s.
