FRIDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1900.
The Daily Oregonian of Dec. 4th is an
interesting number. It prints a fao-smile
of iU first isBue, Dec. 4, 1850. This an
niversary number Is replete with history
and anecdote relating to the early days
of the paper. H. L. Pittock has been
manager and principal owner of the
Oregonian for 40 years. II. W. Scott
first became editor in 1864, and, except
ing the years from 1872 to 1877, has
eince been editor in chief. All con
nected with this great paper may well
be proud of its record.
The Boors may be whipped but they
are not yet conquered. An English gar
rison of 400, with two pieces of artil
lery, surrendered to the Boer General
Dewet only last week. Dewet has an
army of 2,500 mounted troops, and with
no lines of communication to guard, can
make quick marches and harass the
English at unexpected points. Other
Boer generals have like commands. It
looks as if the 200,000 British troops
will be needed in the Transvaal for a
long time to come.
The Daily Times-Mountaineer has
ceased publication till times get better
for newspapers in The Dalles. The
Weekly Times-Mountaineer will con
tinue under the able editorial manage
ment of the proprietor, J. A. Douthit.
The many friends of Mr. Douthit will
hope the day is not far off when he can
resume publication of the daily.
Portland will have no big exposition
in 1002. An appropriation by congress
for an exposition might interfere with
needed appropriations for rivers and
harbors, and for this reason many cit
izens of Portland oppose the holding of
the exposition.
When Mark Ilanna spoke at Fort
Wayne, Ind., during the late campaign,
an old lady of that town had a pot of
pigs feet cooking on the fire. She
left the cooking in charge of her
husband while she went about her other
duties. When the band commenced
playing the husband went off to hear
Mark Hanna'l speech, forgetting
the pigs feet, and the savory dish
was burned and spoiled. A neighbor
of the old lady mado a bill for $2 for the
loss of the pigs feet and sent it to Hanm
as if coming from the loser of the pigs
feet. Recently the old lady received a
check for $2 from Mark to pay for her
loss. But she returned the check, dis
claiming any knowledge of the bill bay
ing been sent.
A Monumental Work.
There was introduced in Hood River
the present week, at clubbing rates, by
a bookman, Ellis' Standard History of
the United States in six handsomely
bound volumes, rue work la oi excep
tional merit, and the history covers a
period from 400 A. D. to recent date
Besides being well written and historic
ally reliable, it is nrofimoly illustrated
with engravings ana colored plates of
ciimaterie incidents in t rie various wars
of the United States. The colored pict
ures are ricii in appearance ana add
much to the beauty of the book. The
marginal reference is another helpful
feature, and the work is indexed in the
closing volume to a nicety, so that any'
thing can be found in a moment.
It is a history for tho student and i
handy reforeuce book for the.professiorv
al man or woman.
BOMB PROMINENT OPINIONS.
I have examined with care "The
Fooplo's Standard History of the United
States," by Mr. Edward S. Ellis, and
have no hesitation in recommending it.
It is what its title purports, a' "People's
History," full aud complete in fact,
interesting in arrangement, style and
pictorial illustrations. It will be of the
greatest service in anv family library,
especially for the young students. C.lL
Davis, U. S. Senator, Minnesota.
Upon examination of Ellis' American
jnsiory wmcn is Deina soia dv bit
Hackett. it scorns to be a most excel
lent work and invaluable to any student
of the history of our country, a valuable
addition to any library and a necessity
in school libraries. It would soon pay
for itself in the library of any pursuing
the common school studies of history and
literature. D. V. 8, Ried, principal of
Jieppner Schools, Jloppner, Ure.,Xov.Z,
1900.
I take pleasure in speaking a word
of oommendation for Ellis' History of
the United States. Of the throe works
that I have in my library, I consider
this the best by far, because of its
systematic classification, its comprehen
sivenons and its accuracy. I would
recommend it for either the home or
professional library. A. L. Hutchinson
pastor First Presbyterian church.Seattlo
Wash., Sept. 11. 1000.
No other history of the United States
contains so much matter that is abso
lutely new4uoh,for instance, as Grant's
Startling statement (never before pub
lished) of what would have happened if
jMiglana bad recognized the Southern
Confederacy in 1804. The books can be
seen at the Glacier office. The editor
has been appointed agent to take sub
scriptions till the first of the year at
clubbing rates.

The Rhyme Social.
The rhyme social given by the ladies'
aid society of the Congregational church,
Thanksgiving evening, was in every way
great success. A delightful pro
gramme was interspersed with the read
ing of rhymes by the different members
of the Aid. All were received with
rapturous applause. A. O. U. W. hall
was filled by an appreciative audience,
and the total receipts of the evening
amounted to $40.70. Coffee and sand
wiches were served at the conclusion of
the programme. Mrs. J. L. Hershner,
who presided, asked that copies of the
poetry recited be handed her at the
close of the meeting. The following re
sponded, and their efforts in the line of
poetry are here given the benefit of our
circulation:
Miss Lena Snell
Mix Whit, we have come her to tell
Those people, kind and true,
About the wht we had to make
A dollur for their Aid.
If wo wore smart, like little boys,
We might say we made It (lick;
And then If we wen; asked bow.
Our answer would be, greased It,
Hut alnoe we are Dot little boy a,
Yet teacher of the aame,
We mutt he very dignified
And amwer with proper meln.
Bo If yea will please reply

Our friends will aoon be burning

How many minute then until oar el'

What la the Drat upon the HtT
Ana men tue second, pieaae,
And what (ball w do with our troublesome
bova
And tb girls who love to teaser
Miss Mella White
I &:n glad you have aaked me to answer
A few questions Instead of rhyme;
For I have been thinking and thinking;
And lout much valuable time.
81111 1 have not sueueeded
In maklne myself a Lone-fellow:
Bo I will proceed to answer
Your questions on at a time.
A sound like ting-a-ling-llng
Culls all the pupils In;
auu men it s out a lew moments
Until tho classes will begin,
Arlthmetlo reigns supreme
Until the first half hour Is gone;
And then we Journey through landa unknown
Until the bell for recess Is rung.
Our troublesome boys and mischievous girls
Are only temporarily so.
For as soon as they're given some work to do
xaey ii let uieir uiihciuli go.
And now I think we've doue very well
Talking to each other;
Bo lot us say to our dear friends,
This Is bow we've earned our dollar.
Mas. F. H. Button-

For tontruee of flame are but the fltllnc end
Of woou that' (put while backs do ache and

And tho' you all may think so, I say It U no
loke.
For the result of my bard labor has all gone
apiusraoae.
Mas. M. F. Shaw and Mrs. C. R. Bone
W earned our dollar easily,
For we are kodak fiends, you see;
Orders we tuke and oroniDtlv nil.
And we never present an exorbitant bill.
Mas. McMillen
There eame a man to onr town,
W bo looked for Butler' bank,
Which could not be found,
lie ald If this check you will discount,
I'll be glad to give you any amount.
So the check 1 cashed and $1.00 made.
Which I gave to the Congregational Aid,
I was told a dollar 1 must Ret:
Ob, Is it not funny how I got that money,
l cbsuea onecK,
Mrs. F. B. Barnes
I arose one morn at the break of day,
aiiu earneu ou cents ims simnte way
I washed live sblrt waists aud starched with
care.
And hung thorn out to dry In the open air.
I Ironed them then and put them away.
And went to my husband to collect my pay.
i rested irom laoor a monm or two.
While walling for something else to do.
Winter came on and the nlahu urrew cold.
Bo I made a long garment my husband to en'

A pocket full of rnymes;
Poets of the Ladles' Aid

To tell how they earned a dollar -
In their last vacation time.
Boine, like the old woman who never told lies,
lutmeu taeirs ny selling canes ana pies.
I mended a oalr of m v nuBband's cants.
For which 1 could find neither rhyme nor ro
mance.
Mrs. J. F, Armor
A card from the secretary of the Ladles' Aid
Hequest a dollar and tell how It was made,
All in rhyme, altho1 every one knows,
Earning Oregon dollars Is always prose.
Well, to earn that dollar I beeaa to Dlan.
And 1 thought of ilr. Davidson, the cannery
man.
And the tomatoes and bean and garden Rtnff,
lie naa saia,over ana over,ne nauu tenougn,
Thar were bean In the garden, both yellow
auu greeu,
A tender and orlsD as ever were seem
There were blackberries, ripe, Juicy and sweet,
And now to earn that dollar my plan were
complete.
And basket and buckets were soon full, run
nine: aver.
With bean from the garden, green a the
oiover;
And a orate full of berries, fresh from the vine,
v or puaaings or pies, (or coraiai or wine.
Bo here Is my dollar, shlnlnc and bright.
That you asked me to earn and bring bore
lonigni.
And this Is the ode to the berries and beans.
Which helped me to earn It, without other
means.
Mas. E. E. Savage
My poetry Is blank verse.
Mrs. Augusta Price
This lady said she couldn't compose lines to
suit her, so she called upon the editor of the
uiacier, wnose macnine was set to worn ana
turned out litis gem;
Borne earn monev by washing pans,
Hut 1 earned mine by labeling can.
Miss Van Wyck
1 had four thousand took to darn within a
given time.
And then to tell the way 'twas done In enter
taining ruyitte.
I lay awake three weeks or more to think
what I should say.
And It flew Into my head so bad I moat forgot
to pray.
So when I knew my hour had come to read
these line aloud.
My heart went plumb down to my heels to
laoe tuts inugniug crowa.
They'd rips from her to Egypt and to India'
corul triiuti:
Then they started back across lota 'round the
equator torrid Dana.
Some I gathered round the edges, drew them
tin aud lied the yarn.
For I'm teaching short-cut methods, how to
"eiiiifiitiy uie uaru.' '
On I fixed Willi stlck'em plaster, like a pan
cake, s-m-o-o-Hi and rouud;
Patted neatly with the ladle till I'd glued it
sase auu suuuu.
One I stopped up whole and solid with a
oranu oi cnewing gum:
But It felt some like a pebble, and It struck
lite wearer aumo.
Borne I darned a mile a minute on the out
ward solus stretch:
Gut It seemed about a million from the sigh
l it oiieu teicn.
One bole there was, d-a-r-k and a-w-f-u-1, noth
ing uout uit tuai was lame;
So I built a cabin 'rouud It so nobody 'd Jump
ati emtio.
Here's a tale of woe and sorrow, 'bough to
uillKt) uie mourner weep;
But I think I'd better close this, or you'll
soon oe ait asieep.
Mrs. Mary Clark
This dollar I cheerfully civ to the Aid
I earned with work similar to the man with
the spade
At the kitchen piano, by diligent practice.
Two warm summer mornings before breakfast
Mrs. H. J. Fredericks
To Paradise Farm one day I went.
To see if 1 could earn a cent:
And to my great turprise I found,
Instead or a cent I earned a half crown.
Upon the ladder I did stand
I reached and pulled, scratched my band,
Picking luscious Kojal Anne.
I tore my clothe- wore out my shoes,
I thought I never would get through;
Now, sixty cent of the dollar earned,
My mind l to the forty turned;
. Sw to the valley then I went.
And there, 'mid trees, I pitched mv tent;
And picking bops the forty earned,
t homeward then my footstep turned.
Determined that, whatever came.
To aara a dollar I would never try again.
Mrs. F, C. Bbosics
Once upon a time, as the story-teller say,
I determined to earn my doliar In this way:
By making pie and doughnuts galore,
I found a read sal for toe and mora;
But fearing to overstock the market If I per
sisted, Tb Importunities for "sinkers" I resisted.
Mas. Jambs Graham
One dollar I made.
But not with a sped.
I did work at borne.
Ana did not further roam.
Mrs. A. B. Canfield
To earn a dollar seemed so easy,
I laughed till I was almost wbeeajr;
But when I came to look around,
And ponder where It could be found,
I most confess 1 couldn't see where
I'd And tb coin that's on the square.
I thought of pickles, both sour and sweet,
And all the things that people eat;
But with all the cook on every hand,
1 feared I'd huslle to beat the band,
A nd then be told, at the end of all.
That I'd get the dollar some other fall.
In this dilemma I asked a witch.
Old Indian Jennie, who wear no switch;
She told me to li t the eating go hang
And turn my attention to rutllety-bang,
I took the first urchin I saw by the collar,
And for a piano lesson got a big dollar.
Mrs. J. L. Hershner
Tell me not In mournful number
Life Is simply a time for slumbers,
For the ladies of our Hoolety
Must earn a dollar without notoriety.
So at work I set to make soma candy
I stirred and pulled till It turned out dandy:
Bo with basket on arm I left the house
A Healthily and quietly as any mouse.
I walked the streets of our town
Till I sold the candy, every pound;
But as I went from door to door,
Not one lady said, "Come some mora."
Mrs. C. J. Hayes
No romance 1 wove around my dollar In
monev.
In earning It there 1 nothing peculiar or
runnv.
I lustchurned the cream and cot sjolden batter:
Now, here Is my dollar without frown or
mutter.
Mrs. M. A. Cook
The most perplexing time I ween,
Of all mv earthly days.
Was wondering how I'd earn ten dime
I thought or many way. .
At laat, through pity, husband said,
"I'll give you quarters four,
If vou will make me two new shirts
Buttoned down before."
Bad he proposed a trip to Mars,
Or to the polar climes,
I would have felt about a ur
Of earning those few dime.
But courage win In every race,
And I thought with aslgb.
What others nav done, I can do;
I'd make the shirts or die.
Bo I went (hopping down to Hand's,
Bought black sateen and thread.
Got a pattern and cut them out,
This said, 'tis not all said.
The hour of weary toll I spent,
A record waa hot kept.
Enough to wash them while they laat,
The briny tears I wept.
I stitched the bosom fancy like,
Two pockets put in one.
I tried to work the cloth all In,
At last they both were don.
Now husband haunts the backmost streets
When down town be must go.
Be vows he's proud of his new shirts,
"Wife made 'em, don't you know."
He says, "there' not much lit to them,
Bill I, they resemble shlru."
I confess when be smiles and winks
Be probes a wound that hurt.
I see tbem In my startled dreams,
They haunt me on the llnei
Confront me like a phtintom dark
When on that "bub" of mine.
If some kind tramp would only steal
Tbem when hung out to dry;
But alaa, I fear he would think
Them orow about to fly.
While In despair I see a gleam
Of hope in these wild rymes, .
And though a blunder I have made,
I'll try again for dimes.
Mrs. R. E. Harbison
The earnlncof dollars Is somewhat In my line,
nut it's a pretty nara matter to maae a goou
rhvme.
And while I believe that I can make money
I fear that my rhyming will sound rather
lunny.
The wav that I earned thla dollar In cash
was nv nAAiinor miA iwi ana m x nv ud dimd.
By keeping the baby from running outdoors
And helping my husband do part of the chorea
Bo while I keen moving- at a steady gait.
