Several unusual hands were held during the evening with Mrs. Mabel Yankus holding 1500 trump and Faye Verbeck 1000 aces.

Local Ladies Attend Federation Meeting At Farm Home Several women from the Mill City Women'» club attended the fall meeting of the Marion Gjunty Federation of Women’s clubs which was held at the Children's Farm Home in Cor vallis this year. The club» in the district help support the home. Going from here were Mrs. Leo Russell, Mrs. Edith Ma- son, Daisy Geddes, Mrs. John Swan and Mrs. J. C. Kimmel. Joining the group was Mrs. Bill Hoeye from Corvillis. Mrs. Ma son had spent several days vis- itlng with her. Instead <»f ending my so-cal led «'olumn with a story, think I'll »tart out with one. Because It seem» to la* one <>( those days when words fall me. (That will tie the day 1 can hear yiai ■ay). Anyhow that remind» m<* ot tlx* «me alxxit tlx* reporter from tile big city newspaper who stopped to visit a friend wlio ran a little country week B How He «ski'd his friend, can you keep up your circula tion in a town where every« me already know» what ev eiyoiw* els«< is doing?" 131«* editor grinned "They know what everyone is doing all right, Ixit they read the paper to sec who's lw«*n caught at it." Which comes under the cate gory of tile typical reply when 1 ask someone If they "know anything new" "Not that you can print" they reply. Well.

But anyhow this is the w«*ek that you can lavish a little more attention on tabby. Driving further into tile past it was 19 year» ago tin» week that one of footballs* great games took ¡»lace at West Point. A virtually unknown Notre Dam«* team whipped th«* Army 35-13 anti brought the team captain, Knut«* Rockne, to th«* attention of th«* sports world. Not «»nly this l>ut it dra matized a new play called th«* "forward past." Also seeing that this is THE WEEK, politically speaking, it is interesting to note that No vember 7. 1974 Harper's Week ly ran the first cartoon depict ing an elephant as the symbol of the Republican party. In the drawing by Thomas Nast en titled "The Third Tenn Panic.” a reference to President Grant's possible bid for a third term, the elephant was labeled "Re publican Vote" as it was about to tall into a pit marked "chaos." I am sure I have read or her* J about the Democratic symbol but can't recall its origin— anil as a good Ilemucrnt would tie interested in some reader telling me the fncts.
