Sam Koplin, the all-round sport OF
Frankton, invited Judge Henry and
Harvey Byrkett to go duck hunting
Wednesday, down the Columbia. Sam
said he would be on the ground at GER
tain hour to meet them. He was there,
but hid in the brush, and had a decoy
duck in the water, waiting for his
friends. The judge trudged along ahead
oil Harvey, and both went beyond the
place designated for the meeting. Both
passed the decoy without seeing it.
They started on the back track, Harvey
ahead. He met Sam, who had to point
out the "duck." Harvey. took shot,
but the "duck" was still there. He
didn't know what allied his gun, that
never missed before, till Sam picked up
the decoy. The decoy was then placed
again for the judge. Harvey went back
to meet him. The judge failed again to
see the decoy, and Harvey had to point
it out to him. The judge was not long
in bringing his trusty weapon to bear
upon it, and after his shot, the hearty
laugh OF Sam Koplin rang out on tine

carried away into the land of dreams.

Hood Riverite made haste at once to
go down into the farming districts and
interviewed the natives as to what
they knew about growing apples,
Along the roads that | travelled | saw
orchards on every hand bending and
breaking under the weight of big red
apples which found, but could hard
ly believe at first, to be our well-known
SpitZenberg variety. | made inquiry
as to whether this heavy y ield was not
an unusual occurrence, but was as
sured by all the growers that the Spitz-
enberg never failed to bear full crop
on that planet and that it had but few

Grazing Privileges on the Reserve.
Antelope Herald,

II. d. Langille, general forestry in
spect0r, met number of the stockmen's IS
union here, last Friday, and discussed
with them the question of pasturage in
the forest reserve. Mr.. Langille stated
that the aim of the government was the
greatest good to the greatest number,
and that the greatest interest centered
in the preservation and utilization of
the timber supply, He pointed out
.that by the setting aside of the Cascade
reserve, it had been protected
from the land-grabbers, and the
lands had been preserved for the use of
the people, subject only to proper re-
strictions. The chief inquiry made by
the department is; What number of
sheep will the reserve carry without in
juring the permanency of the grazing,
and how can that number be apportioned
with justice to allP These matters were
thoroughly discussed, and before clos
ing his remarks, Mr.. Langille stated that
as long as the sheepmen will do their
utmost to cooperate with the govern
ment in promoting the usefulness OF the
reserve, they may rest assured the
grazing privilege will be extended to
them

marries again, and the second husband
dies, is she the widow of the first hus-
band or the second one, or of both?"
is asked by an exchange which explains:
That was the conundrum recently be-
fore the pension authorities. The widow
of federal soldier was drawing a pen
sion as such widow. She married again
and the pension stopped Then the
second husband died and the widow
made application for reinstatement as
the widow of the first husband, and the
claim was allowed. Consequently un-

widow of any but the first husband"

Thanksgiving Offerings.

Superintendent Gardner of the Boys
and Girls Aid society of Oregon, under
date OF November 20, addressed the fol-
lowing letter to Superintendent Gilbert:
Dear Sir:-The institution which Irep-
resent being partially supported by the
state and partially by charitable contri-
buttons, take the liberty Of addressing
you, knowing from past experience that
it is in the power OF the children of the
public schools to materially assist the
children of the state who are unable to
support themselves, by contributing
small articles of provisions or clothing at
Thanksgiving. | believe tito be an ex-
cellent lesson in charity, and l am sure
ing their share. Last year the children
of some of the counties did considerable
for us, and as the express company will
do its share by sending us the contribu-
tions free, i take the liberty of laying this
matter before you to be presented to the
schools in your district, especially the
larger ones along the railway.
1t is the practice of the children of the
schools who wish to donate to bring some
small articles, such as potatoes, apples,
a can OF jelly or fruit, or small bundle of
clothing, to the school on the day before
Thanksgiving. After collection, these
things are placed in box and shipped
to us; and | must say do much to tide
US over the winter.
The schools of Wasco county have for
the past few years been of great assist
ance to this society by the pupils donat-
ing groceries, canned goods, vegetables,
rdit aad clothing on Thanksgiving for
the benefit of the children who come un-
der our charge. That these kind gifts
are appreciated goes without saying and
we feel sure the donors must feel pleas
ure and satisfaction in assisting those
who are less fortunate than themselves.
We now come before our friends this
year and ask them to be as generous as
heretofore, and assure them that by CIV
ing small portion to our children they
will be assisting the deserving children
OF the state. Hoping to have favor
able rerly, remain
Yours respectfully,
w. T. Gardner,
Superintendent Boys and Girls Aid
Society of Oregon.
Mr.. Gilbert has in turn sent the fol-
lowing communication to the various
teachers of the county.
The Honorable County Court of this
county has heretofore materially and
morally supported this worthy institu-
ton, and in return the county has been
benefited through the care of its neglect
ed and abused children.
Donations made at Antelope, Shaniko,
Moser, Hood River, Viento and Cascade
Locks, should be shipped directly to
Supt w. T. Gardner. Donations made
at The Dalles and vicinity will be re-
ceived and packed for shipping at the
county court room.
Hoping that the donations will be as
liberal as in previous years, remain.
Very truly yours,
