have one in mind and it runs as fol-
lows: ~
Once upon time, some years ago,
there came into this valley seeker
after land, which he intended to i'm
prove according to his ideas and make
out of it home for himself and fam
lily. He had come from the east and
at the solicitation of very prominent
real estate operator of that day. AS
matter of fact he had made up his
mind to buy before he arrived and
really all the r. e. man had to do was
to show him the property and close up
the deal.
But human nature is the same the
world over. Habits formed stick to
us. While riding thru the valley the
seeker naturally asked questions about
the different places he saw and in re-
ply the r. e. man thought Of some very
serious objection to each and every
place mentioned. In fact the little
"trip hammer" he carried under the
seat of his rig to use on property ne
did not happen to have for sale, for
fear it might interest the seeker in
hand, was kept running overtime as
usual. On the return trip the afore-
said seeker was less enthusiastic but
did ask a few more questions with
similar answers returned.
On reaching the Office the r. e. man
started to draw up papers to conclude
the deal when Mr.. Seeker stopped him
and said, "No, have decided not to
buy the property. / do not care to
live down there alone"
It is not worth while to give the
names in the story, but it is no in
vention. No doubt there are lots more
cases like it that could be traced along
similar lines If we had time. But why
do it? The instance cited in the story
should be sufficient for all practical
purposes.

Events on the Program.

As indicating the character Of hos
pitality that is to be on tap in Oregon
! during the time Of the conventions of
the Supreme Lodge and the Supreme
| Temple the Portland Press club has
sent out word that it will keep open
! house for all visiting knights Of Py-
thias and Pythian Sisters between
August and 10, Its writing rooms
It's library and the conyeniences of a
large assembly room are to be at the
command of individual members, or
committees.
The Press cub never closes its
| rooms at Portland. Its members are
mostly newspaper men, "A portion of
whom work at night, and it is rule
that their club home shall he open at
all times to receive the weary news
gatheTer.
As a social organization it occupies
an unique place in the city. Its high
jinks" are always attended by hun
dreds of the most prominent men Of
the state of Oregon. Just recently
the club had the 1876 candidates for
county offices at Portland on the car
pet and grilled them without mercy
When the Supreme Representatives
arrive in Portland it is probable that
the Press Club will have something
arranged by which the common, ordi-
nary, subordinate lodge man can see
the starch taken out of their dignity.
The Portland committee is insisting
that $4,000 members of the order
gather at Portland during the cOnven-
tion, and that they linger long en-
ough in the state to attend the Pen
dleton Roundup, the greatest Wild
West show given anywhere in the
word II occurs in September, The
interval can be well filled by trips to
various interesting sections Of the
Northwest.
The parade committee is positive
that they will pun OFF an unusually
interesting stunt when the pageant
starts down the street. The pro-
eramme committee is constantly ad-
ding new features to the list of daily
events. SO that every person in at
tendance will have something to look
forward to, even though they are not
members of the supreme Lodge. I'M
this respect Portland hopes to exceed
any other city where these bodies
have met.
