Newspaper Page TextCherrians Wake Up Coos Bay Cities dotted with wheat shocks, with here Md thero a field of corn just discov- ering it has ears, a dark green patch in a sea of yellow, a combination that would never officiate In Ireland. Then came a great rich country, lying fallow and unproductive except for its crop of tar weed. Why it is not cul tivated is a mystery just like the same condition around Salem. There are growths of young oaks too, grub oaks, and enough of them to "grub stake" the whole United States by sections and cnbdivisions. For a lonk distance, in fact nearly to the t'jmmit of the Coast range, conditions are much as in other parts of the valley; prairie and fir grove, oak thickets fields and hand hack, where the land iB low.

Hal Pnt- ton was late, having, so I was told, misplaced his cold cream and sachet powder. His nose was red from the parade in Eugene anil he just couldn't appear at the table in that condition. Jus passed a box car bearing the sign "Walton." There was a side track and a long string of flat cars loaded with logs. I have been wonder ing if that was a logging pullman or the name of the place. It might be cither, but if it is a town it must have -perished from infantile paralysis. The trip over the mountains is much like that over the Siskiyous only you don't go so high, but there are some curves that would mako "Matty" en vious, or a Salem girl, if she possessed thein, want a still more abbreviated bathing suit. There are deep canyons chasing themselves around the hill points, seeminglv as uncertain of their destination as this Eugene-Coos Bay railroad. There is lumber along these canyon sides, too. big long trees with thin tops level with the surrounding hills. At one point a dinky little saw mill surrounded by a great grove of these big trees, was puffing and sput tering away, apparently realizing it would have to get busy if it ever cut its way into the sunlight. There are aeveral" of these little fellows along the load, all busy and as they- are young they may grow. The day has grown warmer since we hit the hills and as most of the crowd has either dined or is dining there is a dead calm fallen on the excursionists, and Salem takes its easier all except those who are still waiting to dine, one of whom I am.

I might add that reports drifting out from Coos Bay indicate that section is making up its average for the forty years it has got along without a circus. I cannot vouch for this now, perhaps I may be able to do so later. Eeception at Eugene. One hundred and sixty-five strong the Salem Cherrians and other Salem citizens roled into Eugene yesterday shorty before noon in their 10-car Spe cial train bound for Coos Bay and the railroad jubilee.

Several red handkerchief ed cowboys with hix six shooters preside over this department while the "kopecks" pro vided flow unrestrained. Cherrians Dance to Shots A little excitement was created at the local station when one of the cow hov hrnke loose from his car and pro ceeded to make the Cherrians in line dance to the tune of blank cartridges and a big black six shooter. The Cher rians have a plan for "shooting up the town" when they arrive at Marshfield. They are also carrying a large amount of stage scenery which they expect to use for "effect" at Marshfield.

Horses may go and automobiles may come, but the circus and its attendant street parade go on forever, nor do they seem to loose one atom of their popu larity. Moreover the circus is one great business institution, where the automo bile has failed to supplant the horse. Every circus vehicle is still horse drawn, and will be for all ages, accord ing to the managers of the Barnum & Bailey circus. The glittering tableau cars, the golden allegorical floats, the gorgeous menagerie cages, all would be i strange aud sorry sights if they were motor driven, instead of drawn by hand- some plumed horses u shining, silver harness.

A feature of the procession is the ' music, furnished by six bands and three calliopes and compressed air pianos. A host of clowns are also on hand to inject a little fun into the cavalcade. It is promised that the circus this season will offer more novelties than ever before in recent years. On account of the war many foreign artists, who have never before appeared in America, are this season making their debut with the Barnum & Bailey show. More than 480 performers, comprising the cream of American and foreign talent are this season participating in the cir cus program. The gorgeous, new, spec tacular display, "Persia, or the Page ants of the Thousand and One Nights," iB also an important feature.
