VOLUME XVI 10NE, OREGON, FRIDAY, Dec. 23, 1927 NUMBER 30 THE LATEST FROM WINDSOR CASTLE WINDSOR CASTLE, Dec. 22. 'IT Editor Independent!' I had in awful dream the other night and thought I had better tell you at-out it 1 dreamed I was the editor of a large dally paper, sitting in a large awivle ehair at a large table In line office, and had a big dayi work ahead of me bo I pasted up a notice,"Do not peiter me, this ia my buisy day. I was very busy with my work when all of a sudden I heard someone say, "Pardner! I have here a fine little book entitled, Boot does not Prohibit, and the Countrys going back to booze. Just the booK you need old boy.". He slapped a tig hand about the aize of a horse collar doun on the back of my neck and shoulders and the ink flew up in my face and all over my writing material. I grabed for a aix shooter laying on the table and got hold of the end of the barrel. I did not take time to point It and pull the trigger but threw it with all the super-human power I had. He started out of the door and the gun landeb against the back of his head caveing it in like a frost-bit spuasb. Doun the steps he went heals over head and lay very still at the bottom. 1 thought to myself, now 1 have done it and something kept say ing. "Murder will out! Murder will out!" Oh I felUwf ull! The door opened and in ateped a big policeman. "Do you know any thing about thla dead man?" he asked, "And do you know anyth ing about this gun? Better make a clean breast of it old chap" Then I waked up panting like a lizard in a southern California desert But gee I was awful glad it was all a dr. am. No thank you, I don't care for any more beefsteak smothered in onions and black coffee for supper. I am no pig even if ! was born in a hog country. I got Winter pkturt-maling simplified with a Modem Kodak With a modem Kodak, the short days and poor light of the winter season need cause you little con cern.
