That was the laconic and effective
statement made yesterday by Glenn II.
Curtiss, master aviator, when asked
what effect the legal steps taken by
the Wright brothers will have upon
his actions at the Los Angeles avia-
tion meeting. He declared there had
been no injunction issued and that
when the proper time comes he and his
company will show up the Wright
brothers as hurting the aviation sport
in America instead of forwarding it,
as they say they are desirous of doing.
$50 far as I know there has been no
injunction issued against me or against
the Curtiss- Herring Manufacturing
company of Hammondsport, n. r."
said Mr.. Curtiss as he sat in the lobby
of the Hotel Alexandria last evening.

When "Fiuok" Was Slang.

The word "pluck" affords an In
stance of the way in which slang
words in the course of time become
adopted into current English. We now
meet with 'pluck" and "plucky" as
the recognized equivalents Of "cour-
age' and courageous. An entry in Sir
Walter Scott's Journal" shows that
In 1927 the word had not yet lost its
low character. He says volume z,
page 3O), "Want of that article black
guardly called pluck" Its origin is
obvious. From early times the heart
has been popularity regarded as the
seat Of courage, Now, when butcher
lays open a carcass he divides the
great vessels of the heart, cuts
through the windpipe and then plucks
out together the united heart and
lungs-lights, he calls them-and he
terms the united mass "the pluck

COLON|sTS RATES ANNOUNCED.
From All Parts of the East to Pacific
Coast Terminals.

Low one-way colonist rates from all
parts of the East to Pacific coast
terminals are offered by the railroads
from March / to April 15. The oppor-
tunity to bring thousands of new set,
tiers to Oregon is a valuable one and
commercial organizations of the state
will take advantage Of it to the fullest
extent.
The attractive literature sent out
during the past year and the wide
publicity given all parts of Oregon
have been fruitful of results and in
quiTy about this state was never SO
general as at the present time. Be-
cause of the widespread interest in
Oregon, it may DO expected that the
state will receive large immigration
during the coming spring.
Oregon people should do all they
can to add to this movement to the
Pacific Northwest by arousing interest
among their friends in other parts of
the country who are looking for new
homes and information should be sup
piled them on the opportunities here
for newcomers and particularly those
who desire to engage in agriculture,
horticulture, stock raising or dairy
ing. These lines of endeavor are re-
warding those who are engaged in
them.

School Lands Now S13.

Another advance Of $l3 an acre in
the price to be paid for base for idem-
nifty school lands has been made by
the state land board. Indemnity
selections have steadily increased in
price from the first basis Of $5, then
to $685. to $40. and now to $13. The
growing scarcity of available school
lands. the increasing land valnes and
the demand are given as the reasons
for the present increase. In year
the indemnity school land acreage
has decreased from 10000 to 100000
acres. The state only requires pay
ment down of one fifth Of the price.
and there are no fees except where the
selection contains less than 10 acres.

Henry Ward Reeeher,s wit.

On one occasion as Mr.. Reecher was
in the midst of an impassioned speech
some one attempted to interrupt him
by suddenly Growing like cock. The
orator, however, was equal to the oc-
casion. He stopped, listened till the
Growing ceased and then, with look
Of surprise, pulled out his watch.
"Morning alreadyw he said. MY
watch is only at 10. But there can be
no mistake about 1t, The instincts OF
the lower animals are infallible."
There was roar Of laughter. The

cd. and Mr.. Beecher was able to re-
sumo as IL nothing had occurred.

"I'd know you were an Englishman
If I'd only seen you addressing an en-
velope," said the American. English
men always seem to put all they pos

important as his pedigree. A good ad-
dress, especially in London, is more
highly regarded than square meals.

the former.
There are, as has been explained,
only certain parts of London in which

divided into districts, the most impor-
tant of which bears the address Lon

The next district in Importance is S.

South Kensington, where upper mid
die class fashionable folks live.

and, being the most convenient part of

it is peopled with the most cosmopoli-

One of the puzzles of this address Is
that If you write w. q. after 1t the re-
cipient will probably not bother to call.

makes it all right. Russell square Is
recognized, but west central is not.

Conviets who are sent to the French

punished In exactly inverse ratio to

People Are Sometimes Paid For That
Express Purpose.
You have no idea how many things
are wrong in a big business until you
are paid to look for them, writes Ge-
lett Burgess in Golfers. There were
the clocks, for one thing, when first
began. The girls wore too many rats
in their hair, there was grease on the
elevator doors, expensive hats were
dumped one on another, the ventila-
tion was bad, the boxes on the shelves
showed from the street through the
show windows and about thousand
other things. Then Spindelheim sold
teapots just like our eighteen cent
ones for IA cents, and for a concern
like Smith 6 Co. to be undersold is
fatal. There's really nothing that SO
enrages Mr.. Smith; also Rubinstein's
window dresser has beaten ours, too,
at times. Down it goes In my little
report. Wouldn't any woman love my
job.
Yes, it's fun to be paid for being q
misanthrope, but it's hard work too.
