Travel 5000
Miles BY Wagon

d. c. Wilson and family of FIT.
Worth, Texas, who spent several
months in Ashland in 1911, returned
to the city Saturday, coming by
wagon, upon the advice of a ply
sician, in the hope of benefiting Mrs.
Wilson's health. They left Texas in
July, travelling nearly 5000 miles en-
route and visiting many points of in
terest in the seven states traversed.
The last $50 miles were made in
snow averaging two feet in depth.
From Bend they had to break a trail
through the snow until they reached
Green Springs mountain, but the sat
isfaction of getting over the Cas-
cades into the milder climate of the
valley amply repaid them for the dis
comforts of the last few days of the
trip. They were all in excellent
health when they reached Ashland,
where they will make their home.

Senior Class :
Have FYOlic

The senior class of the high school
enjoyed a frolic at the Vining Thea
tre Friday night. They attended the
theatre dressed in all manner of cos
tunes, and it kept the average person
guessing as to whether different indi-
viduals were boys or whether they
were girls, as costumes appropriately
belonging to each sex had got twisted
around in an alarming manner. The
merrymakers made no little fun in
the theatre, taking everything by
storm. Such cries as Hello, Flor
ence," "Sit down, you're rocking the
hoat," etc., were common. The man
agement of the theatre was of the
opinion that they were trying to dem
onstrate "reversion in evolution" A."
and the class maintained that they
were advancing to the lark state" +"
but by the chatter that prevailed it
resembled flock of geese more than
of larks.

"The Last Day of School,"

Friday evening some of the pill
lars of the Methodist church who had
been attending a birthday party at
J. II. Edwards looked into the league
room to see what all the noise was
about and were astonished beyond
measure at the sight which met their
inquiring mazdas. AS nearly as they
could figure out, country school
was holding its last day exercises.
The faces of the pupils looked
strangely familiar, but the short
dresses and ditto pants which they
wore, the dolls and Teddy bears
which they carried, the candy, gum
and all the other evidences of eX-
treme adolescence, made the vener-
able holders rub their eyes and ask
themselves where they were at, The
teacher hore a striking resemblance
to their portly pastor, the visitors
alone looking natural. A little lassie
that looked like Myrtle Dougherty
was telling a lot of stories, Biblical
and otherwise, such as one about
William Tell, who sold his birthstone
for mess of potash and had to
choose between shooting a Spitzen-
burg off his sons head and bowling
down to gravy image. Pieces were
spoken by little Johnny Hunter,
Rosy Eliason, Harry Palmerlee,
Myra Gunter, and little boy and girl
who bore a striking resemblance to
Rev. Ogg and Mrs. Palmerlee. The
former used to be a professional COM
edian and did things with his fea-
lures that would make the famous
Bundy tremble for his laurels. The
cutest little miss in school was Mae
Skeen, who sang a delightful ditty
about her dolly, which she held affec-
tionately in her arms. Minta Cherry,
who planned the entertainment, sang
solo in a charmingly innocent and
childish manner. There was also a
sextet which was not at all like Santa
Lucia, and a song by the school which
was sung in several different keys,
the air having escaped through an
open window. debate by Rigg,
Smith, Hunter and Elhart as to
whether there was more pleasure in
pursuit than possession was decided
in favor of both sides, much to the
satisfaction of all concerned. Lunch
was eaten from dinner buckets and
consisted mainly of sandwiches,
doughnuts, pie and cake, although lit
tie Jacky Rigg was observed sur
rounding himself with ring of bo-
logna sausage and Hunter seemed to
be subsisting mainly on apples. OF
these he had aplenty, giving them to
his schoolmates with the same prodi-
gality with which he distributed them
amongst himself. One big boy got
whipped for hitting the teacher with
paper wad behind his left ear, and
Allan McGee was stood up in the cor
ner for being late. Aside from these
unpleasantries, everybody had a good
time and went home we'll pleased
with themselves and their teacher.
