THE NUMBSKULL.

Once-at least-upon modern
time, a Young Man grown, he cal
culated, too big for his native town,
bethought himself to win faster
way in the Big City near the sea,
where mammoth piles scraped the
clouds and in whose canyons of
streets life bristled continuously.
The Young Man saw no ample
field for the talent his foolish friends
said he had in the single business
street that sprawled its miry way
from the railroad station to the dry
goods emporium"
The lure of the larger populace
was in the Young Mans soul. He
fondly dreamed of the wealth he
would 'qu ckly amass. Everybody, he
thought, must have money in the
Big City. for We're not all the San
Francisco date lines in the papers he
read followed by stories of multi
millionaire merchants, wealthy men
and rich women?
Among those who wished the
Young Man we'll was another young
man who had been 50 deficient pu-
pill in the school in which the Young
Man shown that they dubbed him
Mummy" which, being translated,
means numbskull.
"If you like, Mummy, I'll send for
you and give you a good job when
l get my own business" volunteered
the Young Man as he jauntily fleck-
ed the ash from his cigarette.
Whereupon Mummy, pop-eyed, re-
Piled:
"Will you, sure?" Then with less
enthusiasm he went on: Nav, 1
guess I'll stay here. It's safer.
Twenty years later the Once-Y Young
Man-seamed of face frosted of hair
and seedy in clothes-drlfted back
to his native town. Riding with the
village hackman from the station,
he saw the place had stretched itself
over the open fields he remembered
as a boy Many business houses and
, many pretty homes were new to him.
Whose store is that?" he asked,
point ng to a pretentious and busy es-
tablshment
That's Nummy's. You remember
Mummy, don't you?'
Mummy? Why, he was a fool in
school"
yep; he's one of our leading cit
liens now"
"And whose great house is that
upon the hill yonder?"
! That's Nummy's, too"
few hours later the Once-Young
Man awkwardly greeted Mummy in
! the latter's office.
And how's business in the Big
! City?" Mummy asked.
well, 'tisn't what it might be-
responded the Once-Young Man.
"That so?" Mummy squinted un-
derstand'ngly at the Once Young
Man. How'd you like to come back
and work for me?"
"Ftrst rate" replied the Once
Young Man briskly. 81 always did
like the fresh air of the country, any
way"

THE FoRERuNNER.

I've talked awhile with the engineer
The chap who's doin' my old time
tricks,
Except that he runs on track that's
clear,
While l drove the overland coach
and six
A coach and six across that plain
That now flies past in the window
pane.
This chap has throttle in his hand,
And there's never a ticklish turn to
steer;
held the ribbons, understand,
And a shot gun always rested near;
No headlight cleaned on the faint
rough trail
When was the one who carried
mail.
The engineer sits as warm as toast,
AS he perches high on his iron
hoss,
And many's the time I've looked the
ghost
When the norther swept the plains
That endless, pitiless. frozen plain
That ,whizzes past through the win
dow pane.

HELP SWELL THE PARK FUND.

One of the best movements now
underway in Pendleton is the one
which looks to enlarging the public
park fund At this time the sum of
$500 is to the. credit of this fund. 1t
represents the money the city receiv
ed for its portion of the new wooden
mill site. Last spring this money was
placed in the park fund. But the am
cunt is not sufficient to accomplish
much in the way of park improve
ments. The fund must be increased
So that by the coming spring or sum-
mer there will be sufficient money to
accomplish something along the line
OF providing a park system for the
city.
The ladies of the library and civic
club now have a very practical
scheme for raising more money for
this fund Friday evening Bernard
DAILY, the famous Irish singer will ap-
pear in "Sweet Innisfallen.' Half the
profits of that performance are to go
tc the park fund 1t will be the last
performance at the theatre for 1903
and if reports are to be relied upon
Bernard DAILY will be one of>the mos;
| pleasing attractions of the season. As
result local people will have an OPP
portunity to see a highly meritorious
| play and at the same time aid in a
very worthy civic movement. Finish
the old year by attending Sweet
Innisfallen"

Now the country in that vicinity is be-
coming dotted everywhere with neat
little houses. They are not home-
stead shacks. They are dwelling hous-
es, weatherboarded and painted. Peo-
ple are living in them and it will not
be long until they win have pleasantly
surrounded homes,
The erection of this modern school
house out upon the Umatllla project
Is an event of Importance and 1t is
an event of which people may well
take note. Some day there will be
many school houses in the west end
of this county and in that section
there will be a school enumeration
equal TO the present enumeration for
the entire county.

WILLIE WATSON.

Ere he sailed away from home
Willie Watson wrote a pome. War
bled he, with punctured lung, some
thing of a serpent's tongue, which, he
said, high-priced dame, used to in
jure and defame. People cried: 20,
hully gee! Who's the dame of high
degree? Give her name and station,
pray!" Willie Watson sailed away.
Twas the scandal of the age; guess
ing contests We're the rage; people
wondered who the bard smote, with
fountain pen so hard; and the papers
paved the air, speculating IN de-
spair; 'TwiXt whose jawbones is II

EDUCATED MEN NEEDED.

Just at present there are score or
more of Pendleton students home for
The holidays. They come from al
most every important school in the
northwest. To these various schools
these students have been attracted by
different considerations. But they
are all guided by the same general
purpose-a desire TO better themselves
and to prepare themselves mentally,
morally and physically for their du-
ties in the world. 1t is well that they
have such desires and are following
them out. The world today is look
ing for high class, well trained men
t. take the lead in the different lines
of endeavor. College men are now
filling places of responsibility as they
have never done before. In the fu-
ture the percentage of college men
in the ranks of the successful will be
even greater than at present This is
because college or university training
is now open to every one and the
strong, ambitious young men and
women seldom fail to avail themselves
of the opportunities to secure such
training.

WE NEED 1T SORELN.

Anyone who has studied the geo.
graphy Of this section of eastern Ore
ena and is familiar with the life Of
fhe country can readily appreciate
she vast Importance to Pendleton of
having electric lines extending out
from this city to the tributary coun-
Try. The establishment of traction
yseem with this place as the base Of
operations is the one great step that
mzst be taken in order to insure
Pendleton's supremacy as the chief
city of this part of the state. A line
as needed connecting the west end of
Esse county with Pendleton. A line Is
nRzo needed between Pendleton and
Grant county. a line from Pendleton
IN Heppner would be valuable, and a
Gine between Weston and Pendleton
n essential in order to insure for this
e5ty It's just share of the business
sron that region.
At this time the Oregon Washing
tsz company is ready, so its repre-
ssntatives claim, to establish the nu-
acsezs of such a traction system. Just
nj present this company's detailed
szzn is not before our people and 1t is
mt in order to discuss the same. But
q now seems that the negotiations
which have been on so long will soon
DE brought to a head and that it will
he up to the people Of this city to ac-
rert the company's offer OF reject 1t.
ggst what stand the local people are
gpSng to take with reference to this
matter the next few days will re-
veal 1t is safe to predict however,
xaaat if the company's scheme is as
favorable TO Pendleton as the traction
usen intimate the offer will be ac-
,septed. Pendleton has too much at
make to turn down any enterprise
atIzt promises so much for the ma
xerfal advancement of this city and It's
surrounding territory.

1t is bad news that the switchmen's
strike is far from settlement and that
a general strike may result because
the trainmen and the railroad offici-
ais have been unable to agree. 1t is
time for some disinterested party
such as the president of the United
States, to intercede in an effort to
avert further trouble. The public
needs some representation while the
negotiations are underway between
the two conflicting elements.
