BertonB BraleyS Daily Poem (AclueMement

Oh, they are salt of all the earth Who know the of true mirth, Who find in rain or golden sun A tonic draft of glowing fun, Who love with tenderness and fire, Who toll to win their hearts desire. Who help to lift the world from murk, Who laugh and love and do their work. And whether famous or obscure, And whether very rich poor. Somehow these vital folk express The largest meaning of Success; Their laughter rings so clean and clear, Their love makes living sweeter here, They drive away dull woes that lurk, And laugh and love-and do their work, oh. laughter has wondrous charm. And love-true love-can bring no harm To any mortal: and it seems
 That labor makes a fact of dreams. So earth would be a place of bliss Were all its people like to this,
 If all mankind-with none to shirk- Would laugh and love-and do its work

Caught in the Act

Not a little excitement was caused in
our usually peaceful village on Thursday
afternoon last, when Deputy Sheriff Jane
M Kelley forged up Portland street, acts
ing as convoy to three seated sleigh con.
tanning passengers Of most unusual appear
ance They we're five in number, and
though the day was extremely warm for
late December, they we're one and all bun
died up for Alaskan weather. Their heads
in particular were carefully muffled, so as
to conceal their faces, and it was this fact
that reused suspicion il the mind of Roy
Stafford, who saw them on the road be-
tween Hyde Park and here, and caused the
telephone to Mr.. Kelley.
The latter was right on hand, and fell
in with the party just as they were ABOUT
to take the back road to Tenney Bridge.
Investigation of the prize packages proved
four of them to contain each plump yell
low Chinaman, the fifth member of the
party being Geo. LsPorte of Knowlton,
P. Q who was acting as driver and claimed
he had been hired to take the gentlemen
to Barre and beyond that knew nothing
1t is probably that he is only small cog
in the machine which is more or less sue
cessfully operating to smuggle the forbid
den celestial from Canada to the large
cities.
The delegation was taken to the office
of F. G. Fleetwood, wherea curious crowd
viewed them during the afternoon. They
spent the night in Hyde Park Jail, and Fri
day were taken to St. Albans, where they
had hearing before United States Com
missioner Watson.
The hearing was held Saturday after
noon, and hearing the facts the commits
sioner placed bail for LaPorte at $1,000, |
and bound him over for trial at the Feb,
term of United States Court. LaPorte
was unable to furnish the amount and was
placed in Franklin County jail. Immigra-
ton Inspector W. c. Robie St. Adams,
who escorted the party from Hyde Park
to St. Albans on Friday, has placed his
charges also in the county Jail to await
action by the immigration authorities.

FISHERMEN TAKE TACKLE

STREAMS TO FISH TROUT

Early this morning at that particular
instant when Old Sol peeked over the
hill in the east the trout fishing season
In the state Of oregon was open, and
cognzance OF that fact is being taken
today by disciples Of Isaac Walton in
umatilla county.
The opening Of the trout season has
the same degree Of importance to Pen.
dleton that the opening Of the big lea.
que baseball season has i'm the large
cities. Many men were missing from
their Usual places today, and their ab-
sence is explained by the short story
Gone fishing"
The season Is opening later than in
former years by just fifteen days.
Thirty trout, or 20 pounds IN one day,
or 60 fish and 40 pounds in one week
is tho catch limit that is imposed by
the law
Water In the streams Is low enough
to make the sport interesting in this
county. Some few violators were
found during the closing days of the
closed season, but there was compare
lively little OF this sort Of thing, and
indications are that the season will
furnish lot OF good sport.

10000 BODIES OF
AMERICAN SOLDIERS
WILL Be RETURNED
With Personnel Of Over 1000
Men Working it is Possible to
Forward 1000 Bodies Month

PARIS, April ia. P)-Twenty
who fell in France have either been
shipped to the United States or are
now in process of being returned for
burial in their native country.
With 102 officers Of the American
army and a personnel of more than
1000 men working night and day in
many sections of France. the Graves
Registration Service of the American
army has reached point where it is
possible 10 forward 1000 bodies a
month. The work Of sending back the
52,31I bodies designated for interment
in America will be completed by the
end of next october. If present plans
are fulfilled
The bodies of the Americans have
been taken from every cemetery in the
south of France. The greater part Of
the effort is now being concentrated
in the zone of the armies-the Arg
onae, etc. Seventy-seven bodies Of
American soldiers who died in italy
will be removed to the United States
next month The Graves Registration
Service now is working in Berlin on
arrangements for Shipping the bodies OF
13O American soldiers who are buried
ir various parts of unoccupied Ger
many. This latter work was rendered
very difficult because the location Of
many of the graves was unknown. An
expert has been going over the Ger
man burial records in Berlin for sew
eral weeks and virtually all the graves
have been found. The German gov,
ernment has afforded every facility to-
the Graves Registration Service.
More than 90, 600 bodies will be
buried in the four permanent cemeter-
les which the American government
will maintain in France.
The Fine Arts Commission of the
American War Memorial Council has
arrived in Paris for a series of meet |
ings and a tour of inspection of the |
permanent cemeteries The Commits |
sion has in contemplation plans for the
of the cemeteries and |
will determine the character of head !
