NOW DON'T SAY YOU
ARE FROM WALLA WALLA

An over curious newspaper man once
bought a ticket to Yellville. Ark, just
to see what a town with a name like that
would look like, but there is a stay-at-
home sport that is just as good as that.
The question is, What do citizens who
stray from their native city call them
selves?
The man from Memphis is Memphian,
from Troy is Trojan, and from Duluth
a Duluthian. All right then-where is a
Phoenician from? Answer, from Phoenix.
Ariz. That is natural process Of word
formation, but not one in a thousand
could figure it out
Citizens of Los Angeles refer to them
selves as Angelenos and dare the world
&c laugh. BUftalonian is a mouth-filling
word, and DetrCiter is well enough. But
what is the traveller from Little Rock or
Kamloops? 1t would not be safe to refer
to the stranger from Butte as a Butter.
but what is he? And you man from
Key West-are you a Key Weston. and
IL so can you walk 5000 miles in fifteen
minutes?
By the way, II you are from Walla
Walla, don't you think the best way out
OF II would be to stay at home?

DEvIsING MODERN
CHINESE ALPHABET

Despite the wonderful changes that
have been accomplished in China during
the last few years, none is so great, ac-
cording to authorities, as the contem-
plated establishment Of a new Chinese
alphabet.
Under the present system, the MASTER
ing OF the Chinese written language Is
almost an impossible undertaking. The
student must first learn some 5000 char
acters before he can even begin reading
or communicating in Chinese at all
When these are memorized he Is in fair
shape to begin to learn something about
the language.
Chinese writing has no letters. as We
understand the meaning Of the term; the
writing being made up Of a vast number
OF signs and characters, each of which
means a syllable, word, or even group
OF words. Learned Chinese writers use
even so many as 5000 or 1900 characters
in their writing, many Of which the aver
age Chinese cannot understand.
How the new alphabet will be received
by the Orientals Is questionable. And.
also, Just how long 1t will take to intro
duce the new system into general use is
a question OF much discussion. The new
alphabet contains forty-two characters
The characters for the consonants are
some of the Chinese ideograms which
came the closest to suiting the sounds
and some few letters taken from other
alphabets The vowel characters were
more difficult to handle. and four of
them weue taken from the Greek, four
from Russian, five from Latin, and one
from Chinese OF the nine remaining
voweIs, two are modified signs now in
use and seven are reversed kilograms.

In 1871 a number Of members Of Damon

conditions in their lodge, and realizing
that strife had no place in Pythian
lodge and that harmony is the founda-
ton of all well-regulated institutions, de-
termined TO found a new lodge and give
it the popular Pythian name of "Har-
mcny."
A charter was granted by the Grand
Lodge and on the third of August 1871,

Eleventh Street and Maryland Avenue

Mayhower Council, No. II, D. OF A,
gave a reception Thursday night to the
State officers of the organization. The
council chamber looked like a scene
from fairyland, with it's decorations of
flags and flowers. The electric lights,
veiled by red shades, cast a dim light,
making one wonder when the curtain
would rise disclosing the fairies at their
play. One long table, at the end of the
hall, on the left of the entrance, was
covered with dainty white drapery, and
laid with bright silver, brilliant cut
glass, &C. The piece de resistance" was
an immense enterpiece-composed of
fruits and fiowers-on each side, ranging
toward the opposite end Of the table;
large vases of cut flowers were placed
and at each end an immense punch bowl,
surrounded by its attendant glasses, fin
ished the decoration of the table. A huge
silk flag, on its upright staff, surmounted
by a large American eagle in gilt, stood
at the left of the councillors PEDESTAL
In front of the pedestal, on the floor
below the platform, was a large bunch
of goldenrod and ferns. After Sister
Martin had welcomed the State councillor,
Sister Laura Z. Burdett, and her stan,
each officer was called upon for remarks.
Slster hoSe llnSleyS chairman OIL tne
good of the order" committee, on be-
half of Mayfiower members, presented
to the State councillor a huge shower
bouquet of la France roses. Each serv-
ing Of cream was decorated with a small
silk American flag on a tiny gilt stan.
The State session convenes on the Sth
and 9Th of the month, Monday and
Tuesday evenings, respectively, so May
flowers will be the last council to enter
tain the present State officers, and will
be credited with having given one Of the
most enjoyable and brilliant affairs Of
the season of 1912-12
