7 determined to be very dignified
and cool to this impertinent friend
of Clifford's; but, Just before we
reached the table he had evidently
reserved, Clifford bent toward me
and whispered so low that | scarce
ly heard:
"Be particularly nice to May
SOM"
l wondered what he meant, and
why | should exert myself for this
man. But there was neither time
nor opportunity for questions
Clifford ordered an elaborate
luncheon. Then told the waiter to
bring three cocktails. | was sur
prised as he seldom drank any

to smile and chat, as if nothing
had happened with this man, who,
so short a time before had tried to
flirt with me.

talking, the thought of how | had

useless it had been, made me smile.

A EoIced Courtesy,
what are you doing tonight,
Mayson?" Clifford asked. 1--WE are

going to take me to the theater,
but embarrassed that he should in

?. A bipartisan commission OF three Or
five to have charge of our school and institu-

LET me think a moment an
swered the Pip. as / call him for
short, though, to be sure, his tail
was rather long. And just then,
pretty soon, the two bad chaps
came within sight Of the bungalow.
Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy, the
muskrat lady housekeeper, was
Just getting Uncle Wiggilys din
ner, cooking it on the stove, and. a
lot o fsmoke was coming out of the
Chimney on the roof. AS soon as
the Pip saw the smoke while he
and the SkecZicks were hiding in
the bushes, the Pip said:
see that! There is n way by
which we can get Uncle Wiggily's
sousei"
what do You mean? BY that
smoker" asked the Skeezicks.
Pooh! Nonsense and lollypops!
I don't see how smoke coming out
of a chimney is going TO help us
to nibble souse off a bunny rabbits
cars. Smoked hams are all right
but smoked souse--I never heard
of, such a thing" and the Skee
scratched his nose on the end of
his tail and looked to see ii any
wild strawberries were growing on
the pumpkin vine under which he
was hiding.

[ was so angry that he should
make it necessary for me to say
something; compel me to endorse
Clffords action, that | could
scarcely hide my distaste. But /
knew that Clifford expected me to
DO as he had asked--rather or
dered me to do--so ! said, as cor
daily as l could:
II have neither eyes nor ears for
anyone when | am at a play, Mr..
Mayson, so you certainly will not
bore me. And you will be COM
pany for Clifford. He isn't as en-
thusiastic as | am over the the
ater."
His eyes twihkled at my answer,
but he bowed gravely as he re-
joined;
IF that is the case | shall be
both delighted and honored to join
you"
Clifford Appears Pleased.
Clifford smiled pleasantly and
remarked;
= Shall we meet you in the lobby,
or will you dine with Mrs. Ham
mond? / have a business appoint
ment which precludes my getting
back in time for dinner"

in my face, and could not avoid
casting an appealing glance in Mr.,

| will meet you in the lobby and
after the theater you must be my
guests for supper"
Fine" Clifford exclaimed, and
the demainder of the luncheon
passed pleasantly.
| excused myself after the coffee
and went directly to my room.
Clifford and Mr.. Mayson were talk
ing business and Clifford would not
come UP before he went out for the
afternoon. AS / rose from the

we'll do. one of us will climb up
on Uncle Wiggily's bungalow ro2i
and stop up the chimney hole with
a bunch of grass"
"What good will that do?" asked
the Skee. 49,,
We'll, then, the smoke, instead
of coming out of the chimney as
il ought, will pour out into the
rooms. 1t will get in the eyes and
nose of Uncle Wiggily and Nurse
Jane, and they won't know what

smoke. Then We'll grab hint"
"Hum!" said the Skee. THAT
sounds pretty good" But of course,
TO you and me, and also to Uncle
Wiggily if he had heard it, that
would have sounded pretty bad
''We'll do it," said the Skee. Who
will get up on the roof and stuff

"I WILL" offered the Pipsisewah,
"And when Uncle Wiggily runs out
yorIs grab him. But mind, you save
me some of the souse!"
II will" promised the Skeezicks.
So the Pip began to pull big paws
full of grass and then, when Uncle
Wiggily and Nurse Jane didn't see
him, he climbed up on the bunga-
low roof, the Pip did, and he
stuffed up the chimney hole.
Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy, the muskrat
lady. was lust putting some more
wood on the fire. to cook Uncle
Wiggily some orange lollypop pam
cakes, when, all of a sudden, the
stove began to smoke. Big clouds
of smoke poured out into the
kitchen. 49,,

FIRE IS STARTED BY

the heart of the business district
Thursday night for a time threat
ened serious results. but the timely
arrival of the volunteer fire depart
ment with the aid of an extra
strong water pressure soon sub
dued the flames with but little loss.
The blaze started from the leaking
of a coffee urn in Whites cafe,
and the flames were spread by a
thoughless employee who dashed a
bucket of water over the urn. An
inventory of the losses disclosed
nothing more serious than the
burning of the roof and a part of
the ceiling. The mirrors and in
terror furnishings are damaged BY
water. Some loss both from fire
and water was sustained by the
Osborne and Wright millinery and

THE WOMAN PIONEER.
(To M. N.-Crystal, Ariz.)

(To M. N.-Crystal, Ariz)
Fate has granted me a vision,
Just a glimpse of Paradise
OF an earthly. man made heaven,
Almost hid from human eyes.
In the heart of Arizona,
On the lonely, wild frontier
have met a sainted being
The woman pioneer.
She was standing at the gateway
With her children. sweet and fair:
Her sun-burned face agow with pride,
Kissed by the morning air.
She kindly bid us welcome
To the best she had to give,
And a meal l shall remember
AS long as may live.
Out On a dreary trading post,
A violet unseen;
She kept her home and children
Immediately clean;
in home of grace and culture,
According to her lights;
With goodly shelf of books to read,
On Arizona Nights"
The paintings on the wall displayed,
Some native works of art;
While antlers, rugs and bear skins
Brought home the hunters part
The joy of life was in her eyes,
Yet grim, determined fight
Had brought its tears and lines of care
In the battle for the right.
In this outpost of lfes progress,
Near to Nature far from man;
In the haf-hid mountain fastness
Part OF Gods mysterious plan
Duty over-ruing pleasurei
Work done well from morn TO late;
Serving mankind's larger purpose,
Master of her self-willed fate
X
Greater than the debt of nations
Is what all the world owes,
To the woman who has suffered
And endured life's bitter woes;
Who has labored in seclusion,
Facing danger, scorning fear
In Gods image shines the woman
Who has been pioneer

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE

(By Howard II. CARTS. J

The Pip and the Skee were talk

speaking about the weather.
Said the Pip to the Skee:
I'D like some souse!"
Said the Skee to the Pip:
TRY Uncle Wiggily's house."
So the two bad animals, who,
many and many time had chased
after the bunny rabbit gentleman,
once again started for his house,
or rather, the hollow stump bunga-
low. go
How do you spose we can get
his souse?" asked the Skeezicks as
he skipped along beside his friend,
the Pipslsewah.

ROAD
BUILDING
PACIFIC COAST GOOD ROADS
Interest centers Particularly In High
way Extending From California
to Washington. &

By HERBERT MUM, State Highway
!, Engineer Of Oregon)
The Pacific coast is particularly in
terested in our national highway; that
is the Pacific coast highway extending
from California to Oregon and Wash
lngton. This when completed will have
approximate length of some 1,4OO
miles, and the large part Of it Is now
completed or nearing completion.
Mr.. Fletcher Of California stated to
me that his state had completed 525
miles, extending from Los Angeles
north to Sacramento, and we are now
under contract to complete the road.
Oregon now has under contract on this
road some 400 miles Of construction,
all of which will be completed by the
middle Of next year, 200 miles Of which
will be paved and the rest macadam
or gravel. Washington has completed
this road to Seattle, and next year its
entire length will be complete.
am unable to say at this time just
how much money was expended dur
ing the year 1919 in the three states,
but in Oregon approximately $1,000
900 was expended. The three states.
however. are pretty well fixed finan-
cially.
California has a new bond issue for
$4O,OOO.OO0 and previously has ex-
pended some $33,OO0,O00. Oregon has
some $32,OOOOOO available and roads
to cost $19,0OO.OOO to s20,O00.0O under
construction. Washington has less
money. They failed to carry the bond
issue there this year, but have between
100000 and 100000 available for
next year.
The eastern connections with the Pa
cific highway are the Santa Fe trail.
the Lincoln highway, and the Midland
road. I think the Santa Fe IL pretty
well cared for. It connects with south
ern California. In Oregon We are con-
Meeting with the southern highway
ard with the Columbia river highway.
Labor conditions on the Pacific coast
are about the same as In the East.
