Now that tne Klka have had ( their fun with the big Christmas tree party duintcs of last nltfht, which, as annually wuk a ire UKMiduUij success anil ruined a, very liirne fund for the ChrUtnms char ities of the lodRe, the work of pre paring baskets of eatables for Christinas day consumption by the needy, and otherwise dispens ing cheer among the unfortunate of the city and vicinity, will be brgun the last of next wee I; for (list ri button on the Monday be fore Christmas day. lasi night's event began with the hundreds of lodge members nil in a jolly, money-spending mood, and they let financially loo.e with much vigor for two hours, fairly scrambling over each other In their eagerness to buy tickets for the various gifts from the "Christmas tree," and closed with every one of them, but one, going home with a deep and abiding hatred for C Lemmon, a past exalted ruler, who has hitherto enjoyed nn envi able, impeccable reputation. lute. last night and today the 'good brothers" of the lodge were busy taking pecks at the aforesaid reputation, which the sands of time cannot obliterate. Such a bunch of "soreheads" is seldom seen. ' The usual brotherly love of the lode for fellow members went to the wouds because the grand prize from the tree fell to Mr. I a mm on That in itself would not have, caused all this ill-feeling, hut the fact that the winning number was 13 and the -day was the 13th, and that the Lemmon person, who was conducting the drawing himself , picked out the winning number, was too much for the cervus ulsus fellows. However, be it said in Mr. I-em- mon s behalf that he turned pale, stammered and stuttered, and fi nally, as he held onto the $60 gold watch, completely overcome by shame, but no remorse, donated $20 to the Christmas tree fund while still holding tightly onto the timepiece An nttempt was finally made to have the .No. J 3 holder given an impromptu court trial at once be fore Judge Taylor, .County Judge Sparrow ant; Judge Johnny Heed of Gold HIM, but the movement foil through as Judge Taylor had gone home, and the ulsgusted mem oers feared to trust to the Justice of the other two jurists, with whom Crawford C. Lemmon was seen to whisper a moment before, Loads of dressed turkeys, slabs of bacon, hams, fine merchandise of ull kinds and other articles were dispensed from the tree. Aa usual, many -Kilts did -'nflft draw a thing, and other Klks were. very fortunate, Bill Gates was , covered with horseshoes and drew most every thing except the building, while his brother, Pop, only gathered in a rickety wooden birdcage and a paper satchel. Ralph Hardwell, the fruit lieaier, felt ;helr to nu merous boxes of apples, and gro cers drew baskets of scrub gro ceries. .Thus it went, ' Another happening of question, It Is said, arose through Kletcher Fish, who was unable to be pres ent, having left a 5 bill to be In vested in the tree for him, and this money was turned over to BUI Warner, who kept his own money In one trousers pocket and Fletcher's In the other pocket. Bill, on his own money, won a set uf brilliant glass vases, and on Fletcher's money won a fine tur key and a $12 waffle iron. While the excitement was still on Bill could not remember, It Is claimed. whether his money or Fletcher's drew the turkey and waffle iron, and reasoning that the Warner family could not eut vases, decided, it Is said, that it must undoubted ly have been his own money that drew the turkey and waffle iron, WHITE MDSICGOMPANY Pianos, phonographs, stringed in struments and sheet music are all on sale at great reduction in prices during the pre-holtday snlo which began today at tho Ocln White Music company store, next to the Klalto theater.

Uy cut ting trees from thick patches of young growth and using the shape ly tops, and not cutting mure trees than actually are to, be used, a real benefit will be done In the ( corest, eiierni lorenters say. I'rrmlssion to cut trees from lands of another is required by law in both Oregon and Washing ton. The use of living Christmas trees, brightly lighted and decorated, by towns and cities Is growing in pop ularity In Oregon and Washington and is also strongly endorsed by the I. S. forest service as a beau tiful and practical form of fxpres siou of the Christmas spirit. It Is said that some five million Christmas trees are used each year In the Culled Slates, liy cutting every suitable tree 5,000 to 10.000 acres would furnish this supply, whereas a single man -caused fire might destroy several times this number of young Douglas firs. th forest service snys.
