East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1909-04-09

High school athletic interest Is now
being centered on the track team and
the several coming meets in which
the local representatives will particS
pate. A large squad is out every eve
ming and the new men are rapidly
being whipped into shape for the ap-
preaching contests.
Some disappointment was felt al
!, the high school yesterday when it
was learned that the big meet at Cor
wallis had been set for the same days
as the eastern Oregon meet in Pen
dleton, namely, May 81 and 22. 1t Is
now believed, however, that the man.
agement of the Corvallis meet can be
prevailed upon to change the date 50
as to avoid the conflict, as otherwise
there will be no representatives from
the schools of eastern Oregon.
The date for the big eastern and
western Washington meet in which
Pendleton has been invited to COM
pete, has also been tentatively set foI
May 21 and %, but II is believed that
TINS VIII also be changed.
Schedule of Meets.
The other meets in which Pendle-
ton boys will participate are:
Indoor meet at Columbia Univer-
sity in Portland, April II.
Tri-state meet at Whitman, May D
and Z.

ton. May 81 and %.
Gordan and Kimball the sprintel.
and hurdlers, will be sent to the in
door meet at Portland, while the en-
tire team will take part in the othei
meets with the exception of the one
in Seattle. Only those who win first
or second places at Pullman will be
eligible to membership on the inlano
empire team which will go UP
against the team from the schools of
western Washington,

MATERIAL FOR THE CUSHIONS
Skillfully Handled, inexpensive Fab
r'es May Be Made to Look Elk.
ceedinqIy Well.

Cushions add to the cosy appear
ance of any room, and. provided the
covers be kept clean and bright, make
a gay touch of color in the decorative
scheme. Though, of course, one may
pay almost any amount for silk and
brocade cushion covers, one need not
necessarily be extravagant, as many
inexpensive fabrics look exceedingly
well.
For winter wear, both plain and
printed velveteen, on account of its
excellent washing properties, may be
strongly recommended; while the best
quality sateen, linen and liberty cot.
ton fabrics are delightfully."- cool and
fresh-looking for summer and early
auturn use. Cretonne is rather too
stiff to employ successfully for this
purpose. but there are many inexpep-
sfve tapestries in a mixture of silk
and wool which look perfectly lovely
when made up.
Extra pillows are always a valuable
possession. and, when not required for
bedroom use. might be encased in
fancy covers and utilized on the couch

Novelty That Will Be Welcomed Has

Late.

Instead of the conventional en-.
graved cards Of parents and newborn
child tied with white satin ribbons.
there is a novelty card that is charm
ing.
1t is the hand-painted profile of a
baby's head on a long, white paper
slip. One little hand and the careless
frill Of lace around the neck is suR.

On the white paper is written the
name Of the newly-born and the date
of its birth.
The long, narrow envelope is also
handmade and sealed with the family
crest in wax, or tiny silver seal with
the family initial in the center.
The day after the great event these
cards are mailed to all friends of the
couple in all parts of the country.
If one must pay to have them done.
the cost is not slight, but If one is
clever with the brush it proves a
pleasant and simple task.
