MR. MASON "PUTS US RIGHT'
We are under obligations
the Herald right" in last week
ing this paper's comments on
ing at lone. True, Mr. Mason
with our ideas regarding most of the points at issue. In a
matter of this kind it is mostly unusual but always agree
able for the putter to agree with the puttee.
True, Mr. Mason chides us for commenting on news
paper reports of his taxpayers' meeting, and in that posi
t if Ti he may lie correct. H is oftc 1 remarked by pessimisms
eind others that "you can't believe anything that's in the
papers anymore."
There seems to be a difference of some $7,500 between
Mr. Mason and the correspondent who sent forth the news
-of the taxpayers meeting to the world, but as Mr. Mason
(objects to us taking cognizance of newspaper reports re
garding his meeting, we will have to pass that up.
Regarding the "proposed Spray highway", which by
the way is tiot and never will be a highway, but a post
road, Mr. Ma -.on says it is "child's play" and "nonsense"
to talk about such a thing and then asks "Why not com
plete the road (meaning, we infer the Oregon-Washington
highway) to the Umatilla county line before getting
Sprayed?
We lake it from this that Mr. Mason thinks the coun
ty court should take the $70,00 that was apportioned to
the I lardman-Monument road to finish the O.-W. high
way which passes close to or near by lone. Doesn't Mr.
Mason know the county court cannot do such a thing and
that if they could and would do so that it would -1)c an
unwarranted and dishonorable act? .Suppose the county
court should have taken the $25,000 'apportioned to ttic
lone-Cioosebcrry road and used it in some other part of
1 he county instead of using it where it belonged togetlicr
with some $r 0,000 of general road fund money, wouldn't
Mr. Mason have objected strenuously? Are the people of
1 lie Jlardma. 'nd of th : counts' not entitled to the sa.1v:
fair treatment that Mr. Mason desires for his district?
Tf ihese few observations serve to put Mr. Mason
right regarding fair and honorable methods in county road
matters we will feel that our indebtedness to him for pur
linc us right about believing the published newspaper re-
orN of liis meeting is cancelled.

Some time ago Red saw the fol
lowing "joke" in the Portland Ore
goaian: The old boarding house stunt
r.f "doing" the little personal
garments in the washbowl be
fore seeking slumber has not
passes cut, according to E. A.
MePherson, of the Moyer store.
Mac tells of the chap who got
an invitation over the phone to
join in a game of penny ante.
He said he couldn't come be
cause he was washing.
"Washing what?" asked nis
pal on the other end of the
wire.
"My B. V. Ds.," replied the
hallroom boy.
Just then central cut in and
said, "I'm ringing them."
Red had a three minute giggle
over this. Then he registered a brain
wave and immediately revamped the
joke something like this:
Last Sunday morning Red
man in this town. After some
little difficulty with connec
tions, he said, "Hello, Charlie,
hurry over and we'll jazz the
flivver." "Can't do it, Red,
I'm washing my B. V. D.'s"
Just then a sweet voice familiar
to us all, chimed in, "I'm ring
ing them."
Now. lust yesterdav T?ed I'pceivoH
a letter from, far, far away; the fol
lowing is quoted, from it:
Here's one that I'll bet will
make you laugh:
A young fellow called his
best girl up on the phone and
here is the conversation:
She: Oh Harold dear, won't you
come over and see me tonight,
He: Sorry but I'm afraid I can't
She: Oh yes you can, come on.
He: No, I'm afraid I can't.
She: Well, why can't you?
Her Er er I can't tell yon.
Sher Aw come on ana teu me
why.
He: Well er ah you see
it's this way. I'm . washing my
B. V. D.'s. (Just then the cen
tral who had been busy else
where, plugged in, saying,
"I'm ringing them."
(w)ringing them; get the idea?
This was too much for Red. It
was the last drop of water that filled
the bucket that upset and quenched
Ihe fires of mirth. Reu is now an
ticipating seeing the same jolte re
vamped in "Life," in "Judge," In
"The War Cry," in the "Police Ga
zette" and in the "American Legion
Weekly." (Also, Red is wondering
where the chap on the Ovegonlan
first saw the- joke, and what it was
like.)
