However, that was before modern

The mail man at the dawn OF day,
Feeds his horses corn and hay;
He curnes them with greatest haste,
For not moment must he waste.
And next he puts the harness on,
Then this part of his work is done.
He feeds the pigs and milks the COW
And then he thinks, I'm most done
now"
He then walks over to the house
As quiet as little mouse,
Where he finds breakfast on the table
And eats little, if he is able;
And when he eats his little bite,
He then proceeds, if it's daylight,
To oil his "hack" with greatest care
To save it from the wear and tear.
He bitches up his tired team,
For it's almost time to get up steam,
And hike" to the office where he must
go
Through rain and mud and sleet and
snow.
He gets the mail and then starts out
To serve the patrons on the route,
He climbs the hills and fords the creeks
While the wind it blows and bowls and
shrieks.
Now to a mail box he drives up
Out comes a bouncing "yaller" pup
And bites the horses heels and they
Proceed to kick without delay.
He gets them quiet and starts along
And to keep up courage sings a song
By the time his little song is through
He's arrived at mail box No 2
He raises the lid, then takes a cramp,
He finds letter without a stamp
But back in the corner some pennies he
sees,
And he claws them out while his fingers
freeze.
He then feels like he wants to "cuss,
But that might make an awful fuss,
So he sings again, "Oh happy day
When the rural man will get more pay
Then on again with all his might
Bnt hold! an auto hoves in sight!
He meets it, how the horses scare
And go straightway into the air;
But the thing gets past and no one
hurt
1t splits the air and throws the dirt.
He swings to the horses and all Is we'll,
But he wishes the autos were all in
Missouri.
And so it is day in, day out,
Along the rural carriers route
With trials many and pleasures few
And always plenty of work to do.
Now a word to the patrons we'd like to
say
Before we close our tuneful lay:
Make things as pleasant as you can
For the poor old rural carrier man.
Please do not ask him to cash a check,
For he don't have money by the peck.
Don't ask him to take the children to
school,
II Ut ludI 10 SITlCIly against VIC IulO'
Then always keep a supply of stamps
To save the carrier from the cramps.
Erect your box in handy place
And watch the smile on the carriers
face.
When the roads are drifted full of snow
Just shoulder your shovel and "holler'
hello
To your neighbor, John Johnson, and
take him along
To help scoop a little. He won't think
it wrong.
Here now I'll end my little rhyme.
/ may come again some other time.
/ hope you all will clearly see
The troubles of the carrier on the r

About 1900 trees are being cut down

Mt. Pleasant, and the trees on the

Ninth and Tenth are also being de-

That oregon is not the only state

President Kerr Talks of Corvallis
College.

THE very deep interest which the
people OF Oregon take in their Ag
ricultural College. gives assurance oi
a bright future for that institution,
said Prof. w. j. Kerr last night
when I'm Salem on his way 10 Cor
wallis to visit the school of which he
was re"eptly elected president.
II regard the future of Oregon as
very promising indeed, because of Its
many natural resources, its indus
trial enterprises aud It's commercial
advantages. IL affords almost un-
limited opportunities for develop
ment, particularly along lines which
call for men who have been trained
In applied science, | presume that
the wide interest manifested In the
college is due largely To the in
tensely practical nature OF the
courses OF study, which brings the
institution into close relations with
almost every phraze of industrial
effort.
Professor Kerr was In Salem to
meet with Governor Chamberlain
and superintendent Ackerman, ana
TO confer with them regarding the
new building TO be erected this sum-
mer Il was decided that Professor
Kerr and Architect j, V. Bennes, Of
Portland. shall so TO Corvallis tomor-
row. select a site for the hall OF Me
chanics, and decide in a general way
upon plans which the architect will
work out and later submit to tho
committee for approval,
Tn two or three days Professor
Kerr will return to Logan, Utah,
where he will close his work early
In June. He will then move TO Cor
Wallis and az once take up his work
as president OF the Oregon Agrioul-
tural college. The building for the
construction of which arrangement
are now being made, and which viii

Ellis Island, Not Plymouth Rock.
In an article In the January number
Of the North American Review by DR..
Darlington, president of the board Of
health Of New York city, is this inter-
esting and highly significant anecdote:
"a New York schoolteacher recently
tried to get from her class some intel
ligent answers to questions regarding
important facts In United States his
tory. vainly she labored. At last in q
moment Of inspiration and desperation
she asked, Where Is Ellis islandY In
stantly every hand in the room went
up and the light Of intelligence gleam-
ed from every pair Of eyes. The an
swer was as one voice.
"In speaking afterward of the Incl
dent the teacher said In q spirit OF
mock gravity:
"I am convinced that United States
history will have to be revised. We
have always looked with veneration
upon Plymouth rock. Our future gen.
eratlons will know it only as legend.
Their history begins with Ellis is
land"
