To Abolish Trousers,

A Society for the reform of male
apparel has Just been launched in
Germany for the purpose of inducing
men to break away fgrom such
freaks of fashion" as trousers, waist
coats, skirts. suspenders, collars,
neckties, and hats.
For working and the ordinary pur-
poses of wear. the reformers desire
to substitute Smock or blouse suits,
and, instead of the prevailing form
of evening dress. knee breeches and
high-buttoned Jackets which shall OBJ
viate the necessity of either shirts or
linen collars.
The hat, if the reformers have their
way, will be entirely abolished, al
though they are willing to allow it
to disappear gradually by accustom-
ing men to wear a straw head-cover-
ing of some sort. both summer and
winter until they learn to do without
a hat altogether.
The society, which is deluging the
country with printed propaganda
ue-.a.e es tnat it mas already pledged
a number of fashionable tailors to
make no clothes which do not con-
ILL., ~ the loIOrm program.
Another novelty which is advocat-
ed is that each man shall design his
own clothes, instead of yielding weak
ly, as at present, to the autocratic
dictates of few male fashion-mon-
gers in London. Paris and New York.
The society says that the reform of
mems apparel is urgently demanded
in the name of comfort, beauty and
estheticism."

HAS ANYONE CAUGHT
BLACK SPOTTED TROUT

Has any local follower of Sir Isaac
Walton ever caught a Black Spotted
trout in the Umatilla river or Ryan
creek, one of its tributaries?
Answers to this query will be great
ly appreciated by DIR. ]. d. Plamon-
don of Athena and by the fish and
game department of the state of Ore
gon.
According to letter just received
from Dr. Plamondon by District War
den AArill, the doctor received a
consignment of Black Spotted trout
from the federal bureau of fisheries
in July, 1905 and liberated them in
the two streams named above. Since
that time nothing has been reported
concerning them and the doctor is
naturally anxious to know if the
planting resulted in any visible good.
The subject was brought up by
reason of the recent planting of 5000
of these trout in Meacham creek. An
other 10000 were liberated in the
same creek last spring, after having
been fed in the Gibbon nursery pond
through the winter.
AS the Black Spotted trout is con-
sidered by many to be the gamiest
fish that swims, local anglers are very
much interested in the efforts OF the
government and the state authorities
to stock the streams of this county.
Or. Plyamondon's letter follows;
Athena. Ore, Nov. 26th. 1912.
Mr.. Edgar Averill, Pendleton, Ore.
Dear Sir:-I note that you recently
planted a consignment of Black Spot.
ted trout in the Umatilla river and
Meacham creek.
In July, 1905, l received a consign.
ment of Black Spotted trout from the
bureau of fisheries, which I placed
in the Umatilla, and a few in Ryar
creek.
I have never taken a trout of the
black spotted variety from the Una
tilla or its tributaries and have Otter
wondered if this variety was suitable
| to these waters.
If you have any knowledge of an.
trout of this species having beer
caught in these waters / would IL
pleased to hear from you as ] an
much interested to know if my plant
ing was successful or If the fry al
died. Very truly,

that the white and gold were going

choice. The personal choice may be-
come important in the convention II
it becomes apparent that the man
receiving the popular vote of Oregon
cannot be nominated. Under the
pledge taken by the delegates, as
generally interpreted. they will be
relieved from supporting the popular
choice when such situation arises
In some quarters the theory pre-
walls that when the first choice of the
party in the state is abandoned as
hopeless the votes should so to the
candidate for president receiving the
next highest vote in the state. On
the other hand, it is coutended that
when the delegate feels he may con-
scientiously quit voting for the first
choice may then act for himself. and
Is entirely free to vote for his per-
sonal choice, apart from the prefer
eEce vote.

Is for La Toilette, Carey for Taft and
Coe for Roosevelt. The democratic
candidates have been specific, but it
IL believed that Stevenson looks with
greatest favor on Wilson and that

This is the first year that the or
ganization from the oregon agricul-
tural college has taken a statewide
tour, owing to the fact that formerly
the club was not recognized by the
college council and therefore could
not secure the proper leave of alb
sence for a trip. This year, how
ever, in response to the great demand
from the friends of the institution
who wrote letters, asking that the
Glee and Mandolin Club be allowed
to appear in different cities of the
state, the college council recognized
the club and two weeks leave of
absence was granted.
The Giee club has been enlarged
from an organization of sixteen voices
to one of twenty-fo"r. A large num-
Der of men appeared this year with
voices of quality never to be had
before at o. A. C. thus enabling the
club to undertake work which would
have been impossible before from lack
of numbers and volume. Corscienti-
Gus work on the part of the men has
brought the work to a high state of
eIllCltnCN.
The Mandolin Club, with twelve
members, has under the leadership
of Mr.. Chas. Brewster, worked up an
interesting program of a character to
please the most critical, and have
drawn hearty encores upon every ap-
pearance. They will without doubt
prove to be one of the best attrac-
tions ever scheduled in this city.
The program which has been pre-
pared for the audience is one which
will prove to be of great interest to
al patrons. The repertoire includes
the latest compositions of both class
ical and popular nature. Among the
former are such pieces as the "Blue
Danube Waltz" by Strauss; "Com-
rades in Arms" by Adam; Lovely
Night" from the "Love-Tales of
Hoffman" by Offenbach; "On the
Sea- by Buck; and "Ciribiribin," by
PestaloZzl. Besides these large
number of humorous pieces have been
mastered, and Will be used largely

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

when this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when II Is entirely closed. Deafness Is the
result, and unless the inflammation can
