We know of Christian Endeavor So
cieties which have standing commit
tee whose business it is to run errands
for the pastor and thus save his valu-
able time. When a few of the young
come together regularly fifteen min
utes before the service and pray for
Gods blessing on the sermon, it
strengthens him more than they can
ever know as he strives to break the
bread Of life. But one does not need
to be on a committee or to join with
others In order to serve and TO pray
for his pastor. How many of us are
accustomed in our private devotions to
lift petition for him whom God has
set to be our spiritual guide?-Rev.

WANDERERS OF MAINE.

WANDERERS OF MAINE.
Yes. we are wanderers of Maine,
We've wandered from the fold,
And sweetest memories in our heart,
As sweet as ever told,
Is where the bobolink doth sing,
In springtime sun or rain;
Where lake and river. brook and rili,
Still whisper "dear old Maine
Our childhood days, without a care,
We spent in dear old Maine,
AS we wandered through the woodland
And up the pasture lane,
Along the lake and river
And up the mountain side,
Where blueberries grew in clusters,
And black with them Wed.
o, yes, we think of all these things;
The joys OF youth did fill
Our days with peace and gladness
In the schoolhouse on the hill.
O. we are wanderers; yet we hope
Some day TO come to Maine.
And there 10 meet the dear old friends,
And clasp their hands again.
To Join the party up the lake
And camp upon the shore,
And feel the thrill of youth again,
To drink "hurrah tea" once more.
AS we think Of all these things to-day,
The scent Of balmy pine
Seems waited to us in a breath
While in this distant cline.
o. IL would be a pleasant thing
These dear Ole friends to meet,
And clasp them by the hand again,
T'would make our joys complete,
But some have crossed the great divide
Into the better land,
It's there we'll meet and walk with them
Upon the Golden strand.

they are loyal to the place where first the

about $4,000 in a dwelling. He want

MaIInIn Man WANTS His Pay

1t seems to the Gateway that some
Walla Walla people are over jealous
in their loyalty CD to the local
banks. For instance, the powers
that be Of the Walla Walla Fair as
ISOLATION are holding up the newspa-
per advertising bills.
The fair association owes much
of its success to the loyalty of the
press the bills rendered being not
one-tenth Of the service given. The
bank in which the funds of the asso-
citation are deposited holds a big
surplus and is less entitled to con-
sideration than the overworked news
papers.
The new secretary of the fair as
sociatlon offers no explanation what
ever, simply ignores the matter. Tax
payers of this end of the county are
inclined to look upon our county fair
as a racing event and not entitled to
the heavy appropriations It receives
from the tax money.-Wallula Gate

Caught In the "Kangnroo Court. =

NduEHl III iit huhBuiOO SOuTls
II Is not the usual thing for a news
paper man in the usual course Of his
daily peregrnations to find himself
in the coils OF the bastile from wi'ieh
he has no power to free himself, but
such things will happen, az evidenced
by the news gatherer OF the Herald,
who sought an interview with a pris-
oner yesterday, and rs soon as he had
passed the portals Of the institution
he was taken at once before the Judge
OF the kangaroo court, and the rules
of the Jail read to him, from which
rules, If found guilty, there is no ap-
peal, says the Baker City Democrat.
He was asked to plead as to wheth-
er he was guilty Of being in jail, and
of course, he said he was. Judge
Fuller, the judge Of the kangaroo
court, proceeded to levy a fine of 81
against the offender and collected the
same.
or course there was protest
against the payment of the fine, but
the rules OF the Jail are inflexlble
as the laws Of the Medes and Perslans,
so there was no other remedy left for
the news gatherer but to fork over.
He appealed to the deputy officers in
vain, for during the legal holidays
they have no official powers that
would justify them in interfering with
the judgment of the court"
