SHALL WE CRUISE
OUR TIMBER?

The County Court had under
consideration last evening the
matter of cruising the timber Of
Lincoln county.
We have talked with a number
of our prominent citizens and
some are in favor of it and some
are against same. Others are
in favor of same, but do not
think this is the proper time to
do it as it will cost the county a
big sum, and the times are too
hard and taxes high as 1t is.
This is an important matter
and should be viewed from every
angle before being accepted or
rejected. We invite you to ex-
press your opinions through the
columns of the Leader.

The bureau of fisheries today
announced that it's investiga-
ton of fishing banks along the
north pacific coast shows a valu-
able halibut fishing grounds off
the shore from Newport, Oregon
covering approximately $50
square miles. This ground can
be profitably fished from April
to October, but the halibut run
reaches its maximum there in
August and September. AS a
direct result of the Government
Investigations it is announced
that fishermen on 21 trips took
$4,000 pounds of halibut val
ued at $4,000 on these grounds
last Summer.-Oregonian.

Don't fink cause I'm young,

For changed my clothes
Just a few days ago.
I did shed some tears
For my sisters and bruvvers
That didn't change clothes,
Cause they amt got no others.
(,
There is dear bruvver Washington,
Who can't tell lie,
He says sister Ida:
did you know that I'm dry?"
! says: "Bruvver George,
You gotta show me-"
He did, bless his heart,
An he's asedry as can be.
And dear sister Oregon,
Jes as sure as you live,
II member when she
Was jes' sieve.
An sometimes fink,
An often will cry,
An wonder If sister Orrie
Would ever be dry.
Poor sister Montana,
Sh's awfully shy.
She hung her clothes
On the line to dry.
It's a sad, sad story
That she relates,
She tan't dit dry
Cause she irrigates.

"What sort of a man is Henry
Hank?" I ask of the cashier at the
bank; he sighed, as with weary re-

said, "He. doesn't pay his debts"
Thus finally the cashier spake, no
explanation did he make-there was
no more to say; no use of arguing
about-for that pronouncement let's
Hank out, the man who doesn't pay.
A mans forgiven many things, and
swears and swats and sweats; u
thousand faults we lightly scan, but
there's no pardon for the man who
doesn't pay his debts. If I had sew
eral silly sons I'd hand them counsel,
tons on tons, to help them on their
way; the burden of my spiel would
be, my batty boys, on land or sea,
be prompt your bills to pay. You
may have stacks of sterling worth,
and seem too good for this cheap
earth, but if you dodge your bills the
world will strike your balance sheets,
and set you down as chronic beats,
which reputation kills. Go forth, my
beamish boys" I'd say, "and always
be as prompt to pay, as you are
prompt to buy; and you will flourish
then and thrive, and men will boost
you while alive, and praise you when
you die."-Walt Mason.

ICED COFFEE OR CHOCOLATE
Ideal Beverages to Be Served at Card
Party or Other Informal En-
tertainment.

To serve between games at a card
party. try iced coffee or chocolate.
For the coffee. make enough OF what

coffee to fill at least two wine or
sherbet glasses for each guest. Sweet
en- this while II is hot and set aside
to cool. Then pour It into large
bottle or pitcher and set I'm a pail or
deep kettle. packing ice around II.
When ready to serve pour into
glasses three-quarters full and heap
on top either sweetened and whipped
cream, or tablespoonful OF ice
cream.
Iced Chocolate.-Melt two squares
OF chocolate in a double boiler and
add cupful of granulated sugar and
cupful OF water. Let this mixture
cook from the fire. add a teaspoonful
OF vanilla and set away to chill I'm a
pitcher. When ready to serve half fill
a large mixing glass with chopped ice,
add two tablespoonfuls OF the choco-
late strip, fill up the glass with good
sweet milk, cover with n shaker and
shake thoroughly. strain into glasses
and put whipped cream on top OF each.
Do not mix more than a large glass
OF this at time. II will make three
small glasses. This method is much
better than boiling the chocolate and
milk and then chilling. which Usually
forms a sediment.

WOVEN TABLE MATS POPULAR
For Use Under Hot Dishes Nothing
More Satisfactory Has Ever Been
Put on Market.

Nothing has ever been found more
satisfactory to put under hot dishes
than the old-fashloned woven table
mats, and of late there has been quite
a revival in their favor, especially as
1t does not require any great amount
OF ingenuity to learn how TO manipu-
late the frames upon which they are
woven.
These frames come in a box contain
ing several sizes, so that a set for
meat dishes and several sizes in vege-
table dishes may be made.
After being woven on the frame
crosswise, the points where the
crossed threads pass each other are
caught and knotted with either white
or light-colored twist. In cutting the
finished mat off from the frame, a
fringed edge is formed and the mat
not only launders well. but literally
lasts forever. The writer has n set
or these mats made quite ten years
ago by deft old lady. These have
been In constant use, some of them
washed each week and they have
scarcely yet begun to show signs of
wear.-Exchange
