THE PLEASANT SMILE.

He was not rich in worldly goods;
No Offices he held;
In no one field it might be said
OF him that he excelled;
He managed but to get along,
To march with rank and file,
And yet he was unique in this
He had a pleasant smile.
While others careworn faces wore,
He smiled his way through life;
He'd had his share of trouble, too,
Of worldly care and strife;
But somehow burrows never came
That mark the weary mile;
His face a benediction was
He had a pleasant smile.
He made our burdens lighter seem;
Our worries chased away;
His cherry greetings always made
A brighter, lighter day;
What though he never rose to fame
Or never made his pile?
A monarch might have envied him
He had a pleasant smile.

Special Corn Crop Report

Owing to the generally backward
state OF this years corn crop, in many
of the northern but important grow
ing sections of the belt there is dan
ger of injury to the crop by killing
frost, the occurrence of which may
be expected at any time. 1t is there
fore important that every effort pos
sible be made to secure good seed for
next years crop. Where any of last
years corn is left, it should be gone
over and the best ears saved for seed
Moreover, as corn natures unevenly,
it is possible to secure seed corn from
the early ears before the rest of the
crop is matured

OUR DUTY HIRE

THE FACT that the klamath
i Chamber OF Commerce, through
the cooperation of the county court
and local business men. Is now able
to maintain representative at the
Oregon building at the Fair to tell
visitors about klamath county, ETC.,
has been received with rejoicing. for
the general opinion is that personal
effort Of this kind was sadly needed
to get the proper results from par
ticipation in the Fair. But the ex-
tent of the benefit thus derived de-
pends upon klamath Falls and Klam-
ath county.
Persons may become Impressed
with Klamath county by talking to
the representative at the Exposition
or attending the lectures and make
a trip here. Unless they are shown
courtesy and given the glad hand,
an opportunity to see the country,
and reason to believe that We want
them and their families here forever,
and not only while their money lasts,
they are apt to leave disgusted.
1t is up to each one Of us here to
appoint ourselves a glad hand COM
mittee of one to welcome the stranger
within our gates and to see that he
gets to view what he is interested in.
A corial welcome to a newcomer in
a town is something that costs
nothing but has the power of bring
ing wonderful returns. This first
impression is always remembered by
the homeseeker, and even though he
should decide to locate elsewhere,
he will always remember klamath
county as community of real friend
ly people who do not count any
body a stranger. and his remarks
along this line will often as not
awaken interest in klamath county
among still other people.

Amsterdam, January 17.-Cvia Lon Con. 9:05 D. m.)-Emperor William. who witnessed the battle north of Soissons in which the French were driven back across the Aisne decorated on the field General Non Lochow and Licutenan nt General Wishura, commanders of the victorious troops. On General von Lo- cnow he bestowed the order of merit and on Lieutenant General Wisnura A commandership of the order Of the house of I1ohenzollern.
 According to German accounts the trench during the past month, had occupied a network of trenches on the right bank of the Aisne which extend . ed away to the north. On January i. the French commenced a heavy bom- bardment in which the Germans sui Tered severely. The following day the Irench penetrated into the German trenches from which they could not be driven.
 Heavy fighting, man against mah. followed day and night until January 1l. On the 18th Germans began a couu- ter attack and the French soon were driven from the German trenches and also their own and were chased from the heights. They occupied fresh pol s,tion half way down the slope.
 The French, expecting further Ger man attacks on their left. sent rein forcements to that wing. The Germans. however. attacked on the center and right and within three minutes car- tlired the first line of trenches. That afternoon the entire border of the plat eau was in German hands.

The St. Louis Brings Survivors of the

ANTI-CHOLERA GERM
 FOR TOMMY ATKINS
 SECURED IN AUSTRIA

London, January 4-(Correspondence of the Associated ress.)-Because cholera germs appear in new form with each epidemic, pr. John Freeman, a we'll known bacteriologist, has had to make special trip to the Austrian battle front, from which he has just returned with several bottles filled with cultures These germs will be used to provide the serum for inoculating the British troops in the western field of operations.
 Cholera has so far been confined to Austria. The Austrians put the blame on the Cossacks of the Don. But the Russians say that it travelled into Aus tria from Turkey by way of Roumania and Bulgaria. The present epidemic is less virulent than in any prev,oiss cam paign, and its death rate. which never exceeded 30 per cent at worst, has been reduced by the cold weather The fear exists, however, that the Germans in their rapid moving of troops from the southern to the northern part of the line In the eastern theatre, will carry the dis ease into Poland and interchange of troops with the west will bring it into Flanders. It is against this contingency the allies are providing themselves.

SUNDAY MUSICALE IS
 OF VERY HIGH CLASS
Mile. Jenny Dufau's Recital Gives Delight-Charming En-
 tertainment

Birmingham has had many excellent musical attractions this season-more than usual-but it can be said without exaggeration that the recital by Mile. Jen- ny Dufau, the coloratura soprano, at the Tutwiler yesterday afternoon, made the hit of the season.
 Much was expected of this operatic celebrity but she more than fulfilled all promises.
 The fair young woman would have been exceptionally pleasing were her artistry alone considered; but her personality was singularly captivating and greatly height ened the effect of her art This was the programme:
 (a) "Oh, Had I Jubers Tyre" e. F. HandeD; Cb) My Lovely Celia (G. Mon- TOD; Co Patron das Macht Der wind' (Bach).
 Aria from La Traviata" (Ah fors e LuD (VerdD
 ta) My Laddie' CW. A. ThayerT Nb) ITO a Messenger" Ga Forge); Co Lii lacs' (S. Rachmaninow); (d} "The Wind, Charles G. spross).
 tD "Elfenlied" GIT. Wolf); fb) 'Wfeg- enlied' (E. HumperdinclS); ;>(c) "Absence'' (H' Berlioz); (d) "L' 'Oiseau bleu" q. Dal- croze); (e) Les Files de Cadix, d. Delibes).
 ta) "A Moonlight Song Charles Wake Ieid Cadman); (b) 'I Hear Thrush at Eve (Charles Wakefield Cadman): (c)
 The Leaves and the Wind (F. Leon;: (D sThe Dancing Girl, (B Huhn).
 Like most colorature sopranos Mile. Du fau Is at her best in miniatures-daintv little pieces such as made up group No. A. Any lover of music would have been well repaid if he or she had heard only "L'Oiseau bleu' or Les Files de Ca dix"
 The aria from "Traviata" was sung in me operatic style and the entire pro- gramme kept the audience keyed up 60 a raputurous pitch.
 The artist was greeted with tumutuous applause and she graciously responded to several encores
 The recital was given under the aus- plces Of Mrs. J. E. Frazier and Mrs C. J. sharp in the regular Sunday series These ladies were heartily thanked, after the performance, by many persons who had formed part of the audience, for having presented so delightful a singer as Mlle Dufau. w. R
