You say things bo beautifully about Grand Old Oregon things about one of the best spots on earth, peopled by the best people on earth! You say the beautiful things that I always wanted to say, but never knew how. The emerald valo of the Willamette is certainly one of the real beauty-spots and land-of-plenty-Bpots of the world, :and you bring out those spots as T have never seen them brought out b4.

Walkeen Miller eloquently described the Blue Mountains in spots, but as he had to hold down the job of county judge while he was there, he had little chance to get- out and admire the hun dreds of miles of wild country and tall timber all around there. But, cir cumstances considered, he tells truly thrilling talcs about the chipmunx and the squirrols and tho grouse, pheasants and other first settlers of the Beauti ful Blue Mountains. When I rode all over that region it was as a U. H. scout and courier ahead of the army troopers during the Bannack Indian war of '78, and the scenic scenes 1 saw I lacked the talent to describe, but the scones wore there just the same, and they are still there, and I hope that some day you will do for them what you have done for tho Will a motto. Your verses make me now realize tho beauties of the Willamette Valley, and why it was so attractive to the grand old pioneers who to get there tackled tho hardships and Bavages of the Great Plains during tho 40 's and tho 50 's and founded homes along tho Abiqua und silver Krick, Pudding River and through tho Waldo Hills and the Red Hills Red with wild Btnnwberries in early June givo mo the eating of a nation's strawberries and I care not who eats its spuds! and on Chemeketa Prnirio and Salem Prairie, and ovor onto Yamhill.

It is a land full of songs of sweethearts and yel low vested meudowlarks, and Royal Mary Ann cherries with bigness to beat the world! And it was too bad that Quinaby, after his long life of ease, holding up the corner of Bill Griswold's building on sunny mornings should finally col lido with too much mince pie and climb the skyward trail solitary and alone, when all his tribe had gone b4, leaving so much more room and pie for him! Hoping that Oregon and the Pacific Nortwest may be still further blessed with more of pour" poetic descriptions. V. T. Y., J. W. REDINGTON. FRENCH GIRL THOUGHT WAL ' NUTS WOULD GO TO ENGLAND BUT GERMAN GOT IT. UNITED PRESS LEASED Willi. Paris, Feb. 20. Because a walnut went to Germany instead of England a romatic young French girl is being overwhelmed with offers of marriage from Germans, much to the disgust of her patriotic parents. During the Christmas festivities at Hallo, Ger many, a wealthy manufacturer had a huge Christmas tree Indon with pres ents, candies, etc., ami when the tree was being dispoiled one of tho guests took a walnut from tho branches. In stead of a kernel, the surprised Gor man found a letter in French signed "Alfredine Maurand, of Tureane, France." The letter stated that Al fredine, having finished her school studies, wanted to perfect herself in tho English language and wished to enter into correspondence with a young Englishman, and sho hoped that chance would cause the walnut to reach some such destination. Tho romance of tho situation appeal ed to tho young men of Hallo and let ters asking marriage flowed in on Alfredine to such an extent that she had to insert an advertisement in the newspapers indicating that hor sympa thies leaned wholly toward Englishmen and that anyway she wouldn't look at a German.
