THE ART OF MANNERS.

Miss Prindle was a formal and pre-
else old lady who ''conducted''-s the
phrase ran-a very select sewing
class of young girls. Besides being
an excellent school, for learning
needlework, Miss Prindle's Thursday
afternoon gatherings were instructed
in the niceties of old-fashioned man.
ners Miss Prindle was herself a
model of propriety, and had her pu-
pills trained only to initiate her. their
time would not have been wasted.
One day, downtown. Miss Prindle
saw coming toward her a girl whom
she recognized to be Marion Knight.
one of her sewing class The girl was
walking along rapidly, not seeming to
notice her teacher. As the two met,
Miss Prindle caught her eye, and
bowed and smiled in her most formal
way, She then passed on. reflecting
that Marion would doubtless benefit
by the example of her salute, and
some time be herself an example to
others.
A few rods further on, to her sur
prise, Miss Prindle again encountered
SO she thought-Marion Knight
The girl was coming toward her. as
before.
Miss Prindle stopped
Are you" she began, "are you
not Marion Knight?"
Certainly, Miss PrindIe," said the
girl.
"And didn't | meet you only a mo-
ment ago?" she asked.
mo, Miss Prindle, l think that was
my twin sister. Elsie"
Miss Prindle looked her confusion.
And she-she isn't in my sewing
class, is she. Marion?"
NO, Miss Prindle; she has been
away at school for a long time
80 dearl o deari" exclaimed the old
lady. "And I don't know her, and l
bowed and smiled to her! Oh-Marion,
dear, will you tell her just as soon as
you see her that I shouldn't have
smiled and bowed to her, because
I've never met her, you see? 1t was
very bad form, you understand"
But Miss Prindle.7 protested the
girl Il think you met her last year
" hen we first came to live here. Don't
you remember. It was at the church
fair"
"Oh. so / did," cried the other. after
moment. 80 I did. Well in that
case. Marion, you may tell your sister
! that I am glad bowed. but
shouldn't have smiled. Goodby
dear" Selected.

BE THERE.

The meeting of the commercial as
sociation tomorrow night will be {
session of decided Importance. The
annual election of officers will occu,
and at the same time further work
in behalf of the traction movement
will be undertaken. Be there and dc
your duty. Help elect active and
progressive men as officers in the as
sociation. The Commercial associ-
alton is Pendletons working brigade.
The strongest and most Influential!
men in the city should be aligned with
the work of the association and above
everything else the association should
be under capable leadership. The
best way to bring this about is for
every member of the association TO
be present tomorrow night and to give
careful attention to the election of
officers
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1910-01-31

There are some who have become
discouraged over the traction outlook
because the big property owners have
not given the movement the support
Il justifies. But there is plenty OF
time yet to get the big men to sign
up and it would be foolish to aban-
don the fight when it has just been
started. Keep the good work going
We can quit when there is nothing
else to do.

\ SUCCESSFUL SHOW.

For those who arranged and man
aged the poultry show high praise Is
due. They did good work for PEN
dleton and likewise for eastern Ore
gon. 1t was the most successful
poultry show ever held in the inland
empire despite the fact that was the
first show of its kind in Pendleton.
The bringing of so much blooded
stock to this city cannot help en-
couraging the poultry industry in this
section. That is what is needed. We
need more poultry raising and more
"smal farming" in eastern Oregon.
This is no longer a sheep or COW
country and even the influence of the
big wheat field is on the wane. The
hope of the future is in the small
farmer rather than in the bonanza
rancher.
The decision of the Umatilla-Mor-
row county poultry association tc
make their fair an annual event was
q wise and proper move. With sucf
good start already it should not b'
hard to keep the association up and
to make the show better and bette
each year. The East Oregonian be
lieves the poultry association cal
rely upon the hearty and continuou
support of the people of Pendleton

Property owners more than business
