Unbelievable it seemed at first That the surly Snake should take its yearly toll of human life from among those so full of youths vigor and ambition. Taylor Gudmundsen had been our friend and business neighbor since first he came to Nyssa. Honorable generous and cheery always. He made a place for himself in Nyssa that will not soon be filled and friends who will not soon forget him. Kenneth Crist we did not know, but those who did, loved him much, and he too will leave an empty place among his Nyssa neighbors. Tis a relentless cruel and imper sonal force expressing itself in the muddy swirling waters of this river as it curves its way through the valley and along the Idaho bluffs Just east of town. And yet 'tis lovely too. Tall trees and flowering shrubs and blossoms of every hue from March till late autumn crowd lushly along the banks. Innumer able birds nest there, beavers build their dams and in its deep waters the fish thrive, which in these lean years have been meat for hungry people. To watch a white heron follow its course along the mirroring waters into the setting sun is a picture for a masters brush. But to take chance in the muddy stream that flows in places with the speed of a mill race, 'tis folly. But last week we watched from the bank a huge log floating midstream suddenly sucked under ns tho by unseen hands and was not seen again for several minutes, when it bobbed up a half block away in a whirl pool, was sucked under again and disappeared entirely. No man, not even with the strength of a gia.it could have es caped alive had he been in the stream instead of the log. And now we are hoping that the lesson of this recent tragedy will not soon be forgotten and that not again will anyone tempt fate and take a chance in the malicious eddying Professional Cards DR. J.
