marck entertained at very enjoyable
social function last Saturday at the
home of Mrs. Robert Orr The Current
Event and Monday clubs were the in
vited guests.
AS the Fortnightly has been study
ing Scandinavia for the past year, the
program bore entirely on this subject.
The guests were ushered in by little
Scandinavian peasant girls to the
rooms all tastefully decorated with the
Swedish and Norwegian national COL
Ors. Both the Norwegian and Swedish
national songs were sung, and the
Swedish wedding march played. Each
member of the club gave short talk
on some theme bearing on the SUBJ
ject. After the program was disposed
OF many rare Scandinavian curios and
relics were exhibited. Refreshments
were served and a very enjoyable and
instructive afternoon was brought to
an end.
The lecture to be given tonight at
the opera house by DR.. Herbert Will
lett under the auspices of the Y. NJ.
and Y. w. c. A. associations of this
city will be highly instructive and
will amply repay those who attend
DR.. Willett is professor in the Chi
cago university, and has well de-
served reputation, both in this country
and abroad. as a man of culture and
an eloquent orator.
No one should miss this lecture.
The "E and G" club held another of
their enjoyable parties yesterday
afternoon at the home of Mrs. Louise
Come, 1913 Bulge avenue. Progress
sive finch was the form of diversion
employed for the amusement of the
guests. The letter X proved to be a
lucky one, both prize winners names
beginning with that letter. Mrs. c.
s. Kilgore received the first prize and
Miss Trula Kenyon the second for be-
ing the best finch players.

Never shall thy spoken word
Be again unsaid, unheard

Never shall thy spoken word
Be again unsaid, unheard
Well its work the utterance wrougl,
Woe or weal-what'er it brought
Once for all the rune is read,
Once for all the judgment said.
Though it pierce poisoned spear
Though the soul thou holdest dear:
Though it culver fierce and deep
Through some stainless spirits
sleep;
Idle, vain, the flying sting
That passing rage might bring.
Speech shall give it fangs of steel,
Utterance all it's barb reveal.
Give thy tears of blood and fire.
Pray with pangs of mad desire.
Offer life, and soul, and all,
That one sentence to recall:
Wrestle with its fatal wrath.
Chase with flying speed it's path.
Rue it all thy lingering days,
Hide it deep with love and praise
Once for all thy word is sped;
None evade it but the dead.
All thy travail will be vain;
Spoken words come not again.

No Trace Yet.

No trace has been found of John
Noonen, who left Crookston hurriedly
last week with $32 belonging to an
other party. Several letters have been
received at the Crookston hotel from
his parents in Charleston, S. c., and
it is evident that he has not yet
reached home. 1t is thought he will
probably spend some time in New
York before he starts for his home.
The boy was only 10 years old and
had evidently had great deal of ex-
perience even at that age.

The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1907-03-19

A prominent New York lawyer says
that In his earlier professional days he
was glad to expand his slender income
by bill collecting. On one occasion he
had bill against man who Incl
dentally has since achieved a success
which puts him beyond the necessity
of such an indefinite statement as he
made on that occasion. The young
lawyer found him with his feet prop
ped upon his desk, while he gaZed
dreamily at the ceiling through cloud
of tobacco smoke.
But, really, sir, must insist that
you give ME some definite idea as to
when you will SETTLE" the lawyer said
after having been gently rebuffed.
The author consented to lower his
eyes and to wave his pipe languidly.
"Why, certainly, sir, though there
seems to me to be rather unneces-
sary commotion about this trlfe," he
drawled. 'I viii pay the bill as soon
as l think Of 1t after receiving the
money which publisher will pay me
In case he accepts the novel which |
will write and send him just as soon
as I feel In an energetic mood after a
really good idea for plot has occur
red to me. ."--Harper's Weekly.
