WHISTLING. The Oregonian in an article about whistling has this to say about a whistler from Yamhill: Such nuisance» are plentiful, right here in Portland and the greatest of them all is a whistler from Yamhill whose piping has driven a neighboring lodger so near the verge of insanity, that he has perpe trated the following, which may be taken as a w arning by the whistler: There is a voting man of Yamhill AV ho whistles so loudly and shrill That his hard working neighbors Get no rest from their labors, Grasp their guns and their sabres And are firmly determined to kill This piping jack snipe of Yamhill ’ Who whistles so loudly and shrill.
