PENDLETON'S
PROGRESSIVE
SPIRIT
Shown in Selection Of Modern Type
of Street Improvements
Type of Street Improvement.

Type Of Street Improvement.
Pendleton through the intellig, ence
and business acumen of its citizens,
has unquestionably become the big
gest and most progressive city of its
size in the country.
In no single instance has this pro-
grescsive. spirit been better demon
strated than in the selection and ad-
herence to the type of pavement laid
here. The same spirit that made the
Roundup of national prominence, ex-
erted itself against all opposition and
after thorough investigation decid-
ed that the best was the cheapest and
none too good for the town. AS a re-
suit Bitulithic was selected and first
laid eight years ago on Main street
and East Court street and the wis
dom and advantage of this selection
is best shown by the fact that these
streets after eight years of heavy
traffic are apparently just as good as
when first laid. and. have not requir-
ed the expenditure of a single dollar
In maintenance. Last year. forty ad.
ditional blocs of this pavement were
laid ana at least fifty more will have
been laid or contracted for this year.
The adherence to Bitulithic was not
accomplished without considerable op.
position from within and without and
although several different types OF
pavement reported to be ''just as good
but cheaper" fought desperately for an
entrance. the Pendleton spirit. in the
light OF their knowledge of Bitulithic.
and Its apparent superiority refused
to experiment.
With the increasing popularity and
realization OF the advantage accruing
from this type OF pavement. Pendleton
Will soon be In the first rank Of cities
having well paved streets. The i'm
petus to real estate values since the
adoption Of this pavement on resi-
dence streets has even exceeded the
highst expectations. In one instance
I'm particular can be shown OF a lot
on West Court street, which could not
be sold for $4,000 before this street
was paved, which sold for 800 90
after the pavement was completed and
the buyer assumed the cost OF the
pavement besides This represents
practically triple increase in value,
most Of which is undoubtedly due to
the pavement. The record OF real es-
tate transactions In Pendleton in the
last two years viii show that fully 90
rer cent OF the property that changed
hands was on paved streets and at
considerably Increased value.
While In Pendleton take advanta ge
of the opportunity to drive over tre
streets and see for Yourself this mod
err tvpe of street innprovernrt tha'
has heen such on important factor IN
Pendleton's progress.

Love For a Book
Saved Mans Life

A party of people. some OF whom
later made, their home In Pendleton.
and one of whom recently died at a
ripe old age. could tell many stories
OF happenings not so numerous per-
haps as the one told above. One Pen
dleton pioneer relates the story how
her husbands lingering to read book
as they were crossing the plains, led
to their being saved from massacre
by the Indians.
The party had stopped for a meal.
and at its finish, the train took up
the long journey again. But the hus-
band. who had got interested in a
book fingered in a cool spot to read.
The other wagons had got far aheard.
The wife finally went to the hus-
band, reused him from his study and
said they better be going. He reluct-
antly prepared, but they had not driv-
en- far before they saw a band of In.
dians coming down upon them. The
husband turned the wagon and raced
the horses at dead speed in the op-
posite direction, while the wife lay IN
the rear OF the wagon with rifle
fighting the Indians off. The race was
close one anu many times. she used
to say in relating the story, she
thought her time had come. Their
baby was shot through an arm with
an arrow but the wound did not prove
serious. Finally after a long chase
the Indians withdrew and later the
little family reached a fort where
they were welcomed. They learned
later that all in the party with whom
they had travelled had been massa-
cred. 1t was the husbands interest
in his book that alone saved chem
from a similar fate.

Something new has been discovered
an the real OF the dance which, its
criginators claim, will relegate all
other heel and to phantasies to the
darkest recesses of oblivion and itself
claim universal fealty from the
dancing world. II is called the sun
fish Squirm," and TO the person ia
sniliar with the Roundup, the conno-
tation OF that title win be description
enough.
The new dance does not take its
some denizen Of the mighty deep but
ierives II from a peculiar but dis
ssnctive movement executed by some
backing bronchoes when attempting
20 project rider into space. The
movement Is called "sunfishing" in
frontier parlance and consists of a
postericr twist combined with an in
terror rlgidity and midsectional up
heaval, always of course speaking OF
she aforementioned broncho.
The dance had its inception in the
inventive mind of a metropolitan So
ciety belle who was a visitor at the
Roundup here last year and it is
whispered that she plans to introduce
y at the dances which will entertain
the crowd this year. 1t is told that
while watching Angel in the finals
last year. she suddenly clapped her
hands and let out a few exclamations
of delight. announcing to her friends
that she had an idea for new dance.
To date, it is said, she has taught the
dance only to a select few but it IL
said furthermore, that these few are
predicting that the "Sunfish Squirm"
Is destined to create a furore in high
society circles.

everything.
Chief No Horns blinked his eyes
and picked out a nice place where
he could lie down without any great
Inconvenience but just as he twisted
himself into the proper shape he
changed his mind. Something stirred
him to action. II was Jimmy's legs.
For second Chief No Horns was so
badly surprised that he could only
stand still and below. Then he
spraug forward. bending Jimmy's
head back against the cantel but the
young body took the twist without a

stopped with a roar of rage. Jimmy
was sitting straight in the saddle, still
gripping the horn.
Chief No Horns paved up a few
punches of earth. beloved forth his
defiance and whirled about.
What in name of all creations the
matter with that bull? ?" demanded the
arena boss.
He said no more for the bull caught

No Horns turned and saw the big cat

yelled but the cattleman went down
and took the count. No Horns now
turned his attention to a pickup and
that individual went down and lay

10 the saddle horn whipped back and
forth until his neck and shoulders
ached. Twice he let go but didn't
come off. Then he caught the horn
again and lay forward.
A man up in the grand stand who
claimed he never say anything funny
about the Roundup was carried out
on stretcher. A suffragette who had
been loudly demanding votes for wo-
men was now in shrill voice advis-
ing everybody to vote for the bull.
The bass drummer in the band stand
got so excited he beat his instrument

regardless and yelled for a matador.
The lemonade boy dropped his trap
and began climbing one OF the posts
in the grand stand. Everywhere peo-
PIE were in convusions.
No Horns. having put the finishing
touches on the cattleman from John
Day who was the only person left in
the arena and he was there because
he couldn't get away. turned his at
tention to the Indian bleachers where
there shone forth an array OF colors
that would delight the heart of any
madiened bull. Just before No Horns
took the fence it looked like the rout
of Tippacanoe. And then, as No
Horns threw his big bulk into the air
to take the fence. there was a rent of
tearing cloth and Jimmy the Whale
shot over the bulls rump in a decid-
edly negligee attire while over the
fence went the bull with saddle on
his back and in the saddle still stick
ing a pair of homemade leather
chaps. AS No Horns crashed into the
Indian bleachers. Jimmy the Whale
picked himself up and in undressed
neither limbs sped down the track tow

grand stand and bleachers. collective,
ly and individually. went into hys-
terics.
Ten minutes later while the cat
tleman from John Day was still won-
dering what had happened to him and
was being consoled by a bunch of
sympathetic friends who gathered
about him, a small tow headed chap
in a pair of trousers that evidently
had been cast off by Jack johnson or
the famous cardiff giant. pushed
through the crowd. touched the cat
tleman on the arm, and said plain
lively.
Please. sir. do weuns get them

Son." said the big cattleman pull
ing out his purse gently from his
pocket and selecting numerous bills,
heres hundred and fifty an it's

you tell me what done it."

Whale as he took the money and
slipped away through the hole in the
fence where another tow head waited
his coming.

one of the most finished and famous
of the girl riders. gives it as her op-
inion that the girls are whipped"
because they ride with hobblej STIR
rups. That is. the stirrups are tied
down to the cinch and as long as the
girl keeps her feet in the stirrups she
will stay in the saddle and the vari-
ations of the bucks of the horses
cause her mead to whip back and
forth. II Is noticeable, too, that girls
who ride slick saddle are never
whipped" Tillie never hobbies her
stirrups.
While the audience dearly loves to
see cowboy bucked off horse they
take no delight in seeing a cowgirl go
the same way. Consequently the
management is always very desirous
of getting as many poor riders in the
boys class as possible but will not
let girl ride until she has been tried
out and found competent to stick the
horse. On the first day all the young
boys are given their chance and about
"a per cent of them get thrown But
they are learning to ride and by
watching the top-notchers on the sec
ond and third day they prepare them
selves for the championship class for
the next year.
Relay Riding.
In relay riding all depends upon the
ability of the cowboy and cowgirl to
make the changes. And therein lies
all the excitement of the race after
the first dash. Many good riders are
out of the relay class because they
get nervous and excited in changing
saddles and take more time than the
poor rider who keeps his head and
makes his changes in the least pos
sible time. With the girls the same
thing Is true, excepting that many
good riders are either too small to
make the mounts or have not strength
enough to work through the four
| changes
Rut still. everything considered, the
real appeal that grips in witnessing
either cowboys or cowgirls ride buck
ing horses OF relay strings has never
! been analyzed. Even though the au-
dience NAV not understand the fine
