He spoke his little niece to them.

A few friends met at the beautiful
home of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Rinhnn
on last Saturday evening and had a
most enjoyable time. The evening was

amusing. In departing all joined in
wishing long life and hanninem tn thi
hospitable couple.
The Martha Washington tea
the beautiful home of Mr. and Mr. J.
N. Bridges, despite our blunder in th
date, was well attended, even though
the elements seemed to be in direct op
position. The friends commenced in
arrive at a little after I o'clock, and a
steady stream of carriamg aVnncitfvl
members and friends of the Vail
Christian church until nearly 4 o'clock.
All who attended the entertainment
were presented ith a favor in the
shape of a little hatchet, emblematic of
George Washington's inability to lie.
The guests were hospitably received - by
Mr. and Mrs. Bridges and conducted to
the parlor, where they were requested
to register their names on a 4Brge paste
board hatchet, after which they were
informed that they were at home, and
everybody appeared to take advantage
of the information awl thoroughly en
joyed themselves. Mrs. Bridges, assist
ed by Mrs. M. 8. and Mrs. K. Dunn,
served a delicate and Jelicioos luiioii in
the spacious dining room, which was
beautifully decorated with lovely flow
ers, trailing vines and draped with flags
and bunting. The tables were well ap
pointed and served, and even you cor
respondent wag filled not only "with joy
for being fortimateenough to be one ofthe
invited guests, but with those things that
create joy in the inner man. The young
er people enjoyed themselves in playing
Flinch, Frank . Parker proving to be
the champion. The hostess wag com
plimented by all the guests upon the
great success of -the entertainment, 'and
the ladies' aid received qnite "an addi
tion to their treasury. We 'echo 'the
sentiments of all that, 'as ne of the
young people said, we just had a deli
riously skookum time.
A delightful little baby was "born in
this district about ten 'days : since and

W. A. Bodine has sold his nronertv to
the Davidson Fruit Co. and will leave
in a few days for Portland. We are
sorry to see Mr. Bodine and family leave
the vallev, as they are the class of peo
ple wno Duua up a community both
socially and spiritually, and , whose
friendship is eagerly sought for and ap
preciated. But while this community
will sustain a loss, wherever they finally
conclude to make their home will be a
great gainer. The wishes of their legion
of friends in the valley will follow them
to their new home and trust . they will
meet with the success they so richly
deserve.

Washington's birthday today.
This has been rather a -changeable
day. The rain came down iu torrents
for a while, flnsi attornoDn we tiave
had sunshine, showers and hail. Noth
ing like a change.
The snow ig still on the ground, bat
if we have many more showers like we
had today it will soon disappear, and
we shall have to travel in canoes instead
of sleighs.
Attendance in school is stiil small on
account of the snow.

The beautiful enow that hag spread
her white mantle over the' valley for
the past two weeks ia fast going, and
underneath the surface the solid spots
are showing up. We would be glad to
nave it an cleared -away at once and
give place to a coating of green the
fruit of spring. Thus it is with life and
character. How -we some times vainly
struggle to etiace the soilrd and waste
places in our lives; and it ig only the
green spots in life that come to us like
the gentle touch of spring, that soften
and mellow our lives, and render it pos
sible for us to renew the struggle. The
star of hope again lights up our path
way, and we go forth again to try on
known things and struggle for victory.

C. R. Bone will pot a force of workers

the end that this tectioa be twpplled
with water tbe coming stason. The re
cent doubt fpneerning the West SiJeJ
water proposition -strengthens the faith
of the -settler, : thereby rendering it
easier to arrange water contracts.
It ig gratifying to people on the East
Side, even ' though with no direct inter
est in the West Side irrigating ditch, to
learn that matters have assumed a bui
netslike aspect, and that the people will
again be supplied with water.
The present good prices for the com

be wen. The smokestack fell across the
wreck and broke in two or three pieces.
One of our young men says it is best
to smell before taking a drink. We
think it is a good suggestion after seeing
the effects on one young man last week
after taking a drink of coal oil out of a
canteen which he supposed contained
water or something stronger.
Some of the boys are doing a good bus

The people were shocked, last Friday,
to hear of the death of David Wishart.
He got up Friday morning as usual, and
went about his work until about noon,
when he came into the house, and only
a few moments after dropped to the
floor and was. dead in a very few min
utes. Mr. Wishart came to this place
about 12 years ago, located on a home
stead and grubbed out about 30 acres of
land. He had just completed a new
house and was getting independent. He
had gained the respect of all who knew
him. The community extends sympa
