WATERFOWL, Wiz. - Earl
Plumb of this town thinks he has
n strangle-hold on at least one cor
ner of the high cost Of livingz-if
he can only put his plan into exc
cution.
Plumb found a chicken with four
legs among a recent Matching. The
chicken is strong and lively and
uses both pairs of legs alternately.
Where Plumb hopes to cash in
is by getting hold of young four
legged cockerel, several of which
have beeA reported hatched in
various parts of the country. Then
he will start breeding four-legged
chickens, he says, which won't
cost any more to feed, but will
provide an extra pair OF drum
sticks for the Sunday dinner ta-
Bile.

INGRATITuDE.

There are several kinds of in.
gratitude, but the meanest kind that
we know OF Is akin TO an Incident
which occurred Sunday afternoon In
this city. An auto party OF three
from Indiana had stopped In the
auto park outside of this city which
has become so renowned through
Oregon. Washington and California,
and were putting up their tents. etc.
preparatory to making camp. After
enjoying q glorious hour in this. the
most delightful and grand park
which we have had occasion to visit,
We came upon this group pitching
their tent, We asked the Indian
ians what they though; of our park.
Thinking as we do and knowing
what the opinion is Of tourists along
the coast route, imagine our surprise
when the spokesman described II as
punk" That remark made US see
red for awhile, but cooling down We
heard him out He further stated
that to be good park We should
have free bath, furnished rooms. an
electric iron and washer. He said
that at Boise. Idaho, such luxuries
were provided.
During our limited travels we
have never seen such a natural and
beautiful park in any city that was
near the size Of Ashland. nor cities
many times larger. and We are OF
the opinion that the aforesaid people
could not he suited IL a strictly up
to.date modern house (free of coursel
with free bath. all electrical contriv-
ances. steam heat. etc, were pro-
vided for their comfort. It would
not have been surprising in the
least IL they had expected free gro
ceries. and possibly q maid or two.
Enough is a plenty. and we call the
above downright ingratitude.

Scandals Offer
Girls, Comedy and
Clever Pafter

A beyy OF pretty sirls who can
sing and dance well and who are
beautifully gowned, with several
male entertainers adding zest to the
show, the white Scandals of 1913"
made its bow at Ye Liberty play
house last night for a one weeks
stand. Intertwined with the girls
and the male end OF the show is 4
running fire of comedy, plenty OF
fancy stepping and a world OF par
excellent scenic effects. Added to
all of this is some delightful music,
old and new.
Duke Rogers is truly funny. AS
broken-down musician out of a
job through the famous eighteenth
amendment and afterward as wait
er on an out-at-sea cabaret, Duke
does some clever work. His scan
day-mongering about the rest of the
company and his songs are well worth
listening to. Miss Grace Cameron,
who off the stage is the wife Of
Duke. does several clever turnss, par
ticularly the one in which she is a
street urchin, and also as little
old woman who knows all about her
neighbors. but never scandalizes.
Jack Edwards, u nimble-footed
yong man, does several fancy and
difficult dancing steps and does much
to carry the show along. Miss Irene
Gray as the prima donna is one OF
those rare leading ladies who can
sing and has an excellent stage pres
ence.
Others who add to the delight
fulness of the Scandals are Helen
Wilson. Elizabeth Hopkins, Blanche
( Boone and Dorothy Posty.
Fred Cady as the judge in tle
final scene is good, and Victor Carne
creates plenty of amusement AS the
attorney for the defense,
Among the singers is the White
Way Trio. composed OF Messrs. Jim
my Buckley, Wally Sharples and Ed
Bisland, who sing and dance well
and do bit of vaudeville that is ex-
ceptionally clever.
Being a revue, there is the usual
fashion parade and the display OF
fetching gowns with a song to Illus
trate each character
The above is the newspaper com
ment of this delightful muscial show
which will come to the yinpg Fri
day, November 70.
