HELIX NEWS ITEMS. Spring Grain Looks Rocky Vansycte Will Celebrate. Vansycle is going to celebrate the Fourth. Boyd, of Pendleton, will deliver an address in the forenoon.

What his object is in so doyig, is not well known; but it is known that a certain young lady received a boqu.it from him and she said she prized it more than ''Old Jim" No; but more than a "shining five." But what kind of a ''shining five" if we may query. She surely could not have meant a "shining five" shoe, for we are certain he wears at least a No. nine. Then, of course, she must have meant a five dollar gold coin. Well, perhaps she forgot that a five would pay the marriage ceremony. It is reported that one day last week, John L. Bayse, of Helix, started, as he alleged, , in quest of his uncle (Dougles saw-mill) and when he reached Weston he in 1 quired how far it was to the desir ed point.

His breath almost failed him but he wended on his course and succeeded in reaching his dest iny. But what an object creature he seemed to be on his return! If seeing his uncle affects him in that manner we would advise him to remain at home in the future. "I wouldn't mind sawing wood on the Fourth of July, if I could have the assistance of a pretty brown-eyed-girl to hold the wood while I sawed, was a remark made by Wilbur, one evening , when he was called to supper after thus be ing engaged.
