Sir: In answer to yo,ir com munication of December 29, 1 have the honor to advise that the military board will not authorize the organization of any additional companies of the Nation al Guard. If the Dick bill now pending in congress becomes a law, as it prob ably will within the next two weeks, it will be neossary to reduce rather than increase the number of companies.

If these notes are deficient it is on account of the writer having to shovel snow from roofs and make roads to the mail box. The school children are happy on ac count of the teachers, Mr. Brown and Miss Cooper, having distributed 50 bags of candy among them. They were alfo treated at the little white store. Like Eugene Field's poem on the ChriBtmas boy, "they are just as good as they can bo." C. A. Wyman has recently been mak ing improvements, thereby increasing the facilities for his manufacturing plant. He has invented a grubbing machine which promises to be a great success. He has already taken orders for several of them and with his brick machines and tiling he will keep quite a force of helpers, which will prove a good thing for the community and should be a source of profit to himself. We are glad that Mr. Wyman withdrew his plase from sale and is permanently with us. Christmas-tide lias the usual effect, everybody seems happy, and why not in this wonderful Western country where poverty is a stranger? Last Christmas the writer was in Washington, D. C, and noted with sadness the feeble at tempts of the poor people there to ren der those dependinc uuon them happy. we oi the west have many things to be uianKiui lor, both in winter and sum mer.

December 81, 1902. Christmas, like a pleasant visitor, has come und gone, and with It memo riessome sad, others sweet have been awakened that tend to soften and mellow our lives such seasons and events are as milestones along the high way or me, wnere we halt to take a retrospective view of the road passed over and enew our courage for the hills beyond. Were it not for these remind ers, that are like an oasis in a desert, I fear the burdens would outweigh life's pleasures, and many a tired limb would eease its tramping and many an aching heart would break and the hand fall pulseless. But, just so long. as the star or nope lights up the lulls beyond so long will the ceaseless tramping con tinue, and thanks to some unseen pow erand guiding hand thut points us to plains of pleasure beyond. Tom Lucy and wife celebrated their first Christmas in (heir new and ele gant house by serving a dinner fit for a king, llie guests present were: Wm Ehrck and family, John Crosby and titmiiy und jas. hggertand family. At the home of Jas. Egirerton Christ mas eve a dainty Christmas tree was planted in the house, which brought joy io ins nuie ones ami pleasure even to those whose locks are streaked with grey. Wm. Ehrck and family and Tom Lacey and family were present. John Kroeger returned last Saturday from Portland, where he spent several days including Christmas. John looked exceedingly happy. Wonder what the attraction iu? Rumor says he is to go again soon and write his New Year's resolutions there. Fiank Bherrieb and family were the guests of Itoswell Shelley and wife on Christmas day. Ralph Semore Shelley, who is attend ing school at tiie Stale University at Eugene, returned home lust Monday byway of the Dalles. Miss Howe of 'llie liulles Hooonipniiied him. They returned to The Dalles Wednesday evening, and from there Ralph will go ; to Eugei.e to resume his school work. Ualpli willmion be a full-fledged elec trical engineer. He has shown pluck and energy during all his school days. haying worked his way and always inning uigti rank hi ins classes, sucn young men are the ones who fill hon orable and responsible positions when school days are over. He and Percy have been rusticating on their home steads this week. During the past two weeks all kinds of runners huve been in use about Odell. Quite a number of elegant cut lei's have graced the roads, and the merry Jingling of the bells breaks the monotony. Elmer Lafferty purchased a very nice cutter that he didn't get at least the day the party agreed to deliver it. What's the mutter with Elmer? "He's all right." A brother-in-law of Mr. Orr came up from Portland ami spent Christmas here, returning Tuesday. Rogers, the apple man, is still using the Odell roads. Nothing short of a cyclone would stop him. ' This is the last paragraph of the Odell notes for 1902. How would we write it if it were the last oneever wrlt ten? The opportunities of this year are gone. Let us Improve those coining with new year's greetings. I am with bent wishes, X. Crapper Cropplngs. There is still plenty of snow around here but sleighing is very poor on ac count of the soft giound underneath the snow. . L. H. Nichols returned from Sherman county last week where he has been plowing. He intended to nloiv 1110 acres of land to put into wheat but the snow got so deep lie had to quit and come home, lie started for Everett, Washington, on Monday to visit friends and relatives. He will ba imna until after the holidays. Mrs. J. H. Sluemaker returned from Pendleton last week, where she has been visitina for some time.' Hh bsvh she is glad to get back to Hood River again.
