THERE is always somebody who
is ready to take a triple-X
l. oath that this, that, or the
other thing is on the very verge of
going to the .Cerberean 'bow-wows,"
if indeed they have not already gone.
Now along comes Courtney, of
cornell, and the president aiding
and abetting. who declare that they
lack words to express their disgust
over the way the public encourages
and stands for frenzied athletics in
college circles. They say a lot more,
100. For instance, they do not think
that the country should be secured
for good athletes by the various col
leges the way it is every year, and
the prep schools haunted by scouts
TO get the likely youngsters to at
tend this or that college.
Well, grant that it is all true
that this is being done by all col
leges. And then l ask, what OF it?
Is it only in the realm of college
sport that this sort of thing goes en-?
Is it not the example set the younger
generation by the older in dozen
diberent phases of business and So
cial life? When Atlanta wants
grand opera does she rely on home
talent? Does she even satisfy her
self with the best American COM
pany to be had? Not so much that
you could emphasize it. No, Atlanta
and Chicago and Philadelphia and
New York and ALL of them go to
the ends of the earth for the star
warblers; they scour Europe from

PIONEERS HOLD THEIR
ANNUAL REUNION

The Waldo Hills Pioneer association
held its annual reunion at the John
Hunt farm beginning at 10 O'Clock on
Thursday morning. 1t was one of the
most notable of the many memorable
gatherings of the pioneers, who sixty
or more years ago faced the dangers
of the unknown deserts, and turning
their faces to the west, led the way to
this grand state of ours. There were
500 of the "youngsters," for that is
what they are despite the passing of
the years, for they are young in their
hearts and it is only there after ali
that age counts. There was IA band
as well as other music and a generous
banquet was spread under the big trees
and that it was well attended to need
not be asserted, for appetites were
keen and the wherewthal to satisfy
/ them was in abundance. The principal
address was made by Judge William
Galloway, who spoke feelingly of the
old days, the pioneer days, when they
who heard him were a little world to
themselves, further from their old
friends and kindred, in time at least,
than it is now possible for man to get
unless in the jungles of Africa or the
wilds of the Amazon. Filled with rem
iniseences and overflowiug with good
will toward his old comrades, Judge
Galloway spoke from his heart and to
the hearts as well as the ears of his
big audience.
/ DR.. WithycOmbe was there and made
a brief address. C. =. Bishop and Hen
ry Downing also spoke and the vcneE-
able George Downing made I touching
and really pathetic talk to his old com
radcs. Mrs. Waldo was there, of course,
for without her all would have felt
lost. The Silverton bank furnished an
abundance of music and there was also
vocal music by the Silverton quartet,
and Mrs. Harding of Salem and r.. r.
Jones and +. Slade also of this city.
1t was one of the most delightful meet
ings the pioneers have ever held, and
the only thing that caused moment
of regret, or the tribute of silent
tear, was that some who were there a
year ago are now pioneers waiting on
the other side, those who shall come
after them into another paradise.
George Hunt was elected president
of the association for the ensuing year
and Mrs. Small, of Silverton, vice
president. There was also a dedication
of the grounds, which were given by
John Hunt to the association, the ad-
dress being made by George Downing
The gatherings have been held on Mir
Hunts place for many years, anl it
was for this reason that they were set
apart by him for the use of the assDcia-
tion. Mr.. Hunt died just few days
before the association met last year
/ the meeting being postponed on ac
count of his death.

DANGER is GREAT.

Constantinoplc June 10 Whether
there is war between Turkey and
Greece or not, foreign diplomats here
were looking today for prolonged
period of danger for Christians in Asia
Minor.
The trouble began with displays of
hostiltieS against the Greek residents.
Tne authorities are believed to have
given them more or less encouragement
partly because the Greeks were iu.
popular anyway and partly because the
Turks wanted war and considered
that one way of forcing one.
The feeling rapidly developed, how
ever, into a generally anti-foreign and
especially anti-Christian sentiment.
Europeans and Americans are not re.
earded with so much diSfaVur as are
the Greeks and Armenans but they are
not viewed with friendly eyes.
No serious trouble is looked for in
European Turkey but in Asia the risk
of looting and maSsacres was considered
imminent.

While the total yield of the prune

While the total yield of the prune
output this year will not be more than
% per cent of full crop, the young
orchards in many instances will produce
a full crop, according to the statement
of County Fruit Inspector Constable
this morning. Mr.. Constable has been
making regular trips through the fruit
growing sections of the county and has
visited nearly all of the orchard
recently. He says that the orchards on
the high lands will produce particularly
light crops while the young orchards in
the lower parts are full, indicating that
the frost was not the cause of the
blight this year as frost always fol
lows the low grounds. The prunes are
good in spots and this is most un-
usual year says Mr. Constable as the
crop is uneven all over the county. The
quality of the fruit, however, promises
to be first class.
