At last they are at work on the oiled
road. 1t. is too early now to be able
to tell what sort of job they can
make of it, but one thing is sure. They
cannot put it in as good shape as they
could have done last fall when we first
called the C. els attention to it. We
are almost sorry that work has COM
menced for it deprives us of topic
which was good for half dozen lines
or more every week without fail.
Everyone around Finley Pomona'd
Saturday night and the hall was pack
ed to capacity. About fifty guests
came from outside Oranges, arriving
little after noon. After dinner the
Pomona held open session and INSTALL
ed the officers. After supper a fine
program was provided. The boys or
chestra played twice, Mrs. Farney
gave a reading, Dolores Farney and
Mrs. Woodward each sang. The Fruit
vale Grange put on play called "Hec-
tor" and did fine. Mrs. Wilson, of
Grandview was probably the star of
the evening for her recitations brought
down the house. The local Grange
will have to buck up. 1t was noticed
that not one of those participating in
the program was member of the To-
cal grange. After the program new
members were initiated into the or
der and later eleven joined the Pomo-
ma, securing for the Finley Grange the
banner for the largest class. Coffee
and cake were served at midnight and
the party broke up in the wee sma'
hours.
The Grange owes great big debt
of thanks for the work Of the commit
tees. Mrs. Cochran was the chair
man of the committee on arrange
ments and nearly worked her head off
getting ready for the guests. Mes
dams Tewalt, Cooper, Woodward, Ry-
erson, Cole, Hoyt and Cox helped with
the meals and did the hard work. The
Grange feels all the more indebted
since most of them are not even
Grange members.
Courage, Joe
We have not yet found out who
makes the pink doughnuts, but we are
working on clue. This much we
know: They come from someone liv-
ing not far from Mrs. Geo. Schnell.
Mrs. Henry Robertson is back again
but not to stay long. The Robertsons
have traded their place for cumberland
and the new owner, Mr.. Norman Sis
cho is coming to take hold at once.
Mrs. Robertson is planning to stay
until she sells her furniture. She will
not hold an auction but will sell pri-
vately.
Mr.. Sischo, we learn, is bachelor.
This valley seems to be haven for
bachelors and inquiry has been made

the Grange, for a carload of old maids.
Anyone wishing to get in on the car
should call up Ryerson, phone 22x3.

Wilson from Grandview. In build.
Wilson resembles President Wilson
much more than ex-President Taft,
only still more so. A hide man called
at the Wilson home few days ago
and asked Mrs. Wilson if she had any
hides or old pelts to sell. "Mr. Wilson
is not at home," she replied, "you had
better come around and see him."
Joe Gerards may not be an expert
on piano moving, but he gets them
moved just the same. The piano had
to be returned from the Grange hall
to the school last Sunday, so Joe tele-

DINNER STORIES.

A good story is recalled of ex-
President Roosevelt's school days. He
was once requested to recite a poem
beginning
At midnight in his guarded tent
The Turk lay dreaming of the hour
When Greece, her knee in suppliance
bent,
| Should tremble at his power.
He only got as far as the third line
when he began to hesitate. Twice he
repeated Greece, her knee" and then
stopped dead.
| The old professor beamed on him
over his glasses, and then dryly re-
marked
Greece her knee once more. Theo-
dore. Perhaps she'll go easier then"
| The applicant for chauffeur inter-
viewed Mrs. Newrich.

didn't think the family would like to
use it,

said his prospective employer, some
what coldly, as though she expected
! a revelation of international scandal

| One of the attractions of the church

! A lady took her ten-year-old, red
haired, freckled son inside. The wom-
an of wisdom bent over the crystal
ball.
Your son will be a very distin-
guished man if he lives long enough"
she murmured, in deep, mysterious
tones.
"Oh, how NIGEL" gushed the proud
mother And what will he be dis
tinguished for?"
For old age replied the fortune
teller, slowly.
