December Strawberries.

A couple of months ago our peo-
pie were gazing in admiration at the
fine strawberries which Archie Jor-
dan had picked from his vines and
put on exhibition in Clarke's win
dow. But here is a story that is
worth three of that.
Oscar Redfield has quite crop of
December Strawberries. He brought
big bunch of them into the Record
office Monday, which he found grow
ing on his vines right in the snow.
In size they would compare favora
bly, with June berries, and they were
remarkably we'll cOlored considering
the season. Mr.. Redfield says that
he has many on his vines as nice IS
those he presented to us.-Cashmere

4 LINEMAN

Hoquiam, Wash, Dec. John
Nixson, lineman for the electric COM
pany met with an unusual adventure
today while stringing an elevated ca
Bile. Percned in his airy isolation he
was discovered by a sea gull. who
seemed to consider Nixson, so far
from the ground, an intruder on the
rights of the feathered tribe. The
gull screamed and called others of
his tribe to his assistance. One fol-
lowed another until a hundred or
more of the birds had gathered and
made an attack on the man, who was
completely at their mercy for a time.
They swooped down upon him with
their wings and tried to find vul-
nerable place to pick at him. It
was not until the lineman got one
end of the rope free that he was able
10 beat the birds off.

Mr.. Arthur Dexter, who is at home
visiting his mother, will present his
new play to a Wenatchee audience
Friday, December 90. Miss Ida Page,
a Boston girl, who for the 1ast eight
months has been leading lady at the
Auditorium Theatre, Spokane, will
assist Mr. Dexter. Outside Mr.. DeX-
ter and Miss Page Tome ta'-nt will
be used exclusively. The play is
written somewhat on the same lines
as thu riece fWenatchee," produced
here by Mr.. Dexter some years ago.
It deals with the Wenatchee Valley
and the state of Washington in gen.
eral. 1t has the pathos that touches
the hearts of those who find enjoy
ment in the dramatic art 1t has the
comedy that gives life and spirit to
any production. The piece was writ
ten while Mr.. Dexter was playing at
the Liberty Theatre, Oakland, last
winter, and will be produced here
for the benefit of some local society.
A full cast of characters and synop-
sis of the play will appear in later

Don't Be a Pessimist.

Don't put on a long face and look
as though you had a sour stomach.
Hold up your head, smile and look
for better things. Hide your little
hammer and try to speak well of 9TH
ers, no matter how small you may
know yourself to be. When stran-
ger drops in, jolly him. Tell him
this is the greatest little town on
earth and it is too. Don't discour-
age him by speaking i'll of your
neighbors. Lead him to believe that
he has at last struck a town where
Gods people live. Don't knock.
Help yourself along by becoming pop
ular and push your friends with you.
No man ever got rich by trying to
make others believe he was the only
man in town who knew anything.
You are not the only one. There are
others, and they have brains and
know something as well as you.
There is no end of fun in minding
your own business. 1t makes other
people like you. Nobody ever gets
stuck on a kicker; don't be one.

Within one year from the ded
ication of the church the debts

The first year church benevo.
lences were $50, and this year
$50 was raised Last year S3J-

while this year tho amount paid
was 1915.
Next Sunday is the close of

the members of the church that
he be retained.
