EDITORIAL The Gladness of Nature By Williaim Cullen Bryant. "Is this a time to be cloudy and sad, When our mother Nature laughs around; When even the deep blue heavens look glad, And gladness breathes from the blossoming ground? There are notes of Joy from the hang-bird and wren, And the gossip of swallows thru all the sky; The ground-squirrel gaily chirps by his den, And the wilding bee hums merri ly by. And look at the broad-faced sun, how he smiles On the dewey earth that smiles in his ray. On the leaping waters and gay young isles; Ay, look, he'll smile thy gloom away."

When they arrived at Pendleton all had to comb the saw dust out of their hair and shake it out of their clothes. There were twenty-four on the way over but about half that ma.iy on the trip back.
