Dudley Patter- shall, Just horn* from a voyage end coming to headquarters for informa­ tion of what had happened of Inter­ est while he had been away. “W-a-a-a-a-1, Cap'n,” began Grindle the storekeeper, “th' annual meeting of the legal voters o' this town, to meet an* act upon certain articles to-wlt, namely, ain't nothin’ what It used to be. Times is changed wonderfully, 'specially since the war broke out. “Town meet'n' nowadays Is gettin* to be as decorious as th’ Bible class which meets in th' small vestry di­ rectly after preachin’ services, to which all adults are Invited. "They ain't no winders broke, nor nd stove tipped over, nor the mod'rator don't have to suspend consideration of article 21 while he goes down on th’ floor an' Impresses some dt-zen as to proper parl'mentary procedure by bang- in* him over th’ head with a caulkin’ mallet, used In more peaceful mo­ ments as a gavel.” “Yes, I see It done,” put tn Captain Pattershall with a chuckle. “It used to take an able man to do the mod- ratin’.” I “They was times,” continued Grin­ dle, "when a woman couldn't g» by on 'tother side of the street from the town hall without stickin' both fingers in her ears, but this year there was a row of 'em linin' th’ gallery an’ all lis­ tenin', an' lookin' on an' knlttln*. We've got a woman on the school board —think o’ that! “Th’ battle of Utnpteddiddy wan't nothin’ to some of th' vl'lent collisions between the Boshkelovis from the up­ per end o’ th' valley an' the clammers from down on th’ cape—but they ain't nothin' like that now. Th’ hatchit is buried in a carefully marked spot. “An’ what do you think, cap’n, they opened up th’ meetln' with prayer, an’ a slick prayer it was, at that Elder Bates o’ the Baptis’ church, he prayed fer ‘Pirut’ Pollard, th'mod’rator—that he might preside over th’ dellb-ratlons with wisdom an' JedginenL It ain't on record that ol’ Pollard was ever prayed for before—not that way. Th’ elder prayed for 'most everybody an’ everything an' then for who or what he might have left out.” i “Well, wasn't it a better town meet­ ing than the old-fashioned kind?" in­ quired Cap'n Pattershall. i "W-a-a-a-a-1, I s'pose it was, in epeakin’ o’ results an' good blzness proceeding; but there seemed t’ be somethin' lackin'—this war has upset many old an* time-honored institoo- tlons, somehow.”—Boston Globe. '—~~------------- Two Brave Marines. On the first day of February, 1918, there was an explosion in a seaplane hangar on an aviation field near Wash­ ington. The explosion started a tire which set ablaze the clothing of a chief petty officer of the navy. The death of the petty officer and the de­ struction of the costly hangar were im­ minent. Privates William R. Lawton and Ilaymond J. Burnap, United States 10c a pouch— and worth it I marines from the Washington navy yard, were on duty nearby. Arming with fire extinguishers, Graaaly Lett* ao much langar it coata I I themselves they dashed to the rescue. The life of no mora to . haw than ordinary plag I the petty officer was saved and the de­ struction of the hangar prevented. Sec­ retary Daniels wrote a personal letter to each of the marines, commendine him for his coolness and presence of mind in the face of sudden danger. 0 Private Lawton enlisted In the ma- rlne corps on August 4, 1914, at Nor­ folk, Va. Private Burnap Joined the BT soldiers of the sea at Philadelphia on July 21, 1917.

A most remarkable increase Is evi- denced in the use of the telephone In Canada during the past five years, ac­ cording to a report recently laid upon the table of the house of commons. The number of telephones In use throughout the Dominion In 1912 was 370.884. while In 1917 the number had grown to 604.138. The number of tele­ phone companies operating in 1912 was 683, and five yearn later there were 1.659 companies In operation. A total of 889.572 miles of wire was In use during the year 1912. In 1917 the wire mileage was 1.708,202. The capitaliza­ tion of telephone companies also shows n great Increase In the five-year period. In 1912 It was $42.278.851. while In June, 1917. it was $79.121.702. The revenue during the same period hnd grown approximately $8,000.000. The number of persons for each telephone In the Dominion in 1912, was 19.3 and In 1917, 13.4. Cautious Galveston. Many persona remember the destrac­ tion of Galveston by a West Indian hurricane which blew so hard It forced the sea up Into the streets of the city and thousands of Ilves wore lost. An n protection against a similar disaster, the city built a great sea wall. Thin year It has begun nearly two miles more of sea wall which will take near­ ly two years to complete and which will >-ost $2.000.00. After the great storm of 1000, the citizens raised the site of the city 17>4 feet by pumping millions of tone of sand from the gulf. Galveston han taxed itself for all these colossal Improvements.—Exchange. I Mon Who Have' Accompllehed Great Things Cannot Afford to Rest on Their Laurels. “We were talking about a young man here in New York. Said one: ‘I’ll tell you why that chap Is such a wonder. The minute he winds up one big Job he goes after another. He wastes no time patting himself on the back for past achievements. When he finishes putting something over he turns nround and says In regard to his own performance—‘Oh. that wasn't much. I have got to beat that. Now I must get to work and really do something.’ Then he pitches Into a fresh Job as If he hud never accomplished a thing in his life. “In other words, you have not only got to do good work, but you have got to repeat and keep on repeating If you want the world to continue to respect you. “The other day a famous author was telling me how he felt when his first story was accepted. He said that with­ in a few minutes the thought flashed through his mind that he could not stop—but must go on. One good story must be followed by another and an­ other and another—else his reputation would die and he would be humiliated. He said that the feeling was not exact­ ly comfortable—that the prospect was In a way terrible. ‘Being successful.’ he said, Is not easy. The successful man advertises to the world that he can do certain things well—and he must go on making good or back off the map. It’s a great sensation, a great experience—worth almost any­ thing—but It Isn’t a snap.’ “It Is the same way In business. The salesman who sets a high mark has to go right out and bent that mark or suf­ fer by comparison with his own record. He can’t sit down In a rocking chair and devote the rest of his life to re­ ceiving congratulations. “Have you ever sat In a restaurant I and compared your Job with that of a waiter. Try it sometime. No matter what your work is I nru sure you will see the point If you watch the waiter and think how exactly his work typi­ fies yours. Take, for example, my Job —that of an editor. An editor’s Job is exactly like that of a waiter. He lias to go and get something good and bring it In. And after he has brought It in he has to go right out and get something more and bring that In. The minute he sits down or stops to talk unnecessarily with the guests, he ceases to give as good service ns be­ fore. Then the guests who praised him a moment ago begin to growl. And so, almost immediately, he has turned from a good servant Into a poor one. “This fits any line of human activity. A continuous performance Is what Is wanted. Nothing else counts.”—Sid In American Magazine. DR O. L. HOHLFELD, URGED HIGH TITLE VETERINARIAN. Bell Phone— 32J Mutual Ph Tillamook Oregon.

PHYSICIAN AND SURGEO3N. NATIONAL BUILDING, TILLAMOOK OREGl In view of the widespread approval of the Chamberlain bill, making it pos- aible for our soldiers to wear medals conferred by the French, it Is interest­ ing to be reminded that, although the Constitution forbade all those in the service of the United States to accept titles or decoratious from foreign rulers, a strong party In our first sen­ ate wished to bestow almost royal title upon government officials. A serious debate arose over the manner In which Washington should be addressed, and on April 23. 1789. a committee was appointed to consider the matter. Among the titles urged were "Hla Highness, the President of the United States of America and Pro­ tector of the Rights of the Same,” “His Elective Highness,” etc., and a cano­ pied throne was to be erected for his use in the senate. Mtnbers of that body were to be “Your Highness of the Seaate,” the sergeant at anus was to be rechristened the “Usher of the Black Rod,” and representatives "Your Highness of the Lower House.” John Adams, we are told in the Jour­ nal of WllUr.m Maclay, led the so- called “Court party,” which wished to borrow the forms of the British mon­ archy for our Infant government. His mbst zealous supporter was Richard Henry Lee of Virginia. Maclay and Robert Morris were the first senators from Pennsylvania. The matter rested until after the formalities of Washington's Inaugura­ tion were settled. Under the first plan the clergy could attend only as spec­ tators, but this was flnnlly overruled on a strong protest front the ministers of New York. o An Interesting sidelight on the times Is given by John Randolph of Virginia, who as a boy witnessed the inauguration of Adams as vice president. « The controversy over the titles came to a head on May 1 when the clerk of the senate begun to read the minutes. "Ills Most Gracious Speech,” he suld, referring to Washington's Inaugural address. Blank surprise showed In the eyes of many of the senators. Jeffer­ son, the great champion of democracy, was absent In Europe. Maclay rose to his feet. "The words prefixed to the presi­ dent's speech are the same that are usually placed before the speech of his Britannic majesty,” he said. "I know they will give offense. I consider them Improper.
