Maro, the Prince of Magic, as h is called showed himself a master of his pro fession and kept the audience in a fever of expectancy and wonder dur ing the entire entertainment. Not only is he a magician but as a mu sician and artiBt he was equally good. George Dnnlap, a farmer of Pro volt, was in Grants Pass Thursday, his principal bnsiness to find where he could buy good milk cows.

Wayne and Harry Everett are said to be the promoters of this new enterprise. Those who missed hearing the leo- tnre by Evan P. Hughes at the Pres byterian ohurch last Sunday, the first in the series on "Formative Forces in American History" missed a treat as it was not only intensely interesting but instructive as well aud under Mr. Hughes' handling was a sermon as well as a lecture. Complaint has come from some of the residents having mail boxes on the rural mail routes that boys are destroying and damaging the boxes by shooting them foil of boles. This kind of boodlumistn is becoming so common that it is time an example was made of some of the boys in order that the rest of them may take warn ing in time to escape the "pen. " The entertainment at the opera hoese Saturday night for the purpose of aisistiug in the raising of funds to ward the purchase of a drinking fountain for Grants Pass was well attended and the citizens showed by their presence that they are in sym pathy with the ladies in their under taking. The program was entertain ing aud many of the numbers deserve commendation but perhaps the most entertaining number was the vested virgin drill by nine young ladies who in their Grecian costumes and with grace of movement formed statue groupings and executed the drill with credit te themselves and satisfaction to th audience. A Good Paint Should not only cover well, but it should preserve the wood, should not chalk ofT and should wear at least five years All these qualities are guaranteed in Pattons Sun Proof Paints and the test of years has shown that the goods live up to the claims made for them. You can not mix oil and lead as well as machinery can grind them, and therefore good mixed paints are better than oil and lead. (let a color card and prices at UQ Place to Buy Cramer Bros.
