"a Years Ago

Misses Dollie and Carrie Bloch re-
turned home from Union Saturday.
Frank Beale and family went to
Bingham Springs Wednesday to spend
few days at the famous resort.
Mr.. and Mrs. R. J. Body have TO-
turned to La Grande after pleasant
visit with their daughter, Mrs. Ida
Gillis, of this city.
Mrs. Ada Sharp, of Pendleton, is
quite i'll.
At the annual meeting Of the stock
holders Of the Umatilla Publishing
Co., held in Pendleton last Saturday,
Homer Hallock was retained for an
other year as manager of the Tri-
bune.
William Post, former resident of
Athena, is in the city from Wallowa
county. He will probably remain un-
til after harvest.
A week ago Monday Spellia lost
his horse, saddle and bride. The
horse was found next morning but
the saddle and bride are still miss
ing. He will give reward of $40
to anyone returning the same.
Nearly 20 acres of wheat belonging
to Asa Mcdaniel, on the reservation
about 7 miles east of Pendleton, were
burned Friday afternoon. The origin
of the fire is unknown but it is
thought to have been started by
sparks from passing locomotive.
A.. J. Willaby last week had a mar
row escape from losing his entire
crop of wheat by fire. The wheat
caught fire by sparks from pass
ing freight locomotive. Between two
and three acres of wheat was destroy
ed before they succeeded in extingu-
ishing the fire.

Auto tourists are being allowed the
full domain Of the city park for camp
ing privileges. Cars are parked any
where on the gronds that appeal to
the camper, with the result that no
rules are observed and the entire
park will soon be Uttered camping
place. 1t would seem that preserva-
tion of the grounds could be obtained
if little attention was given to the
direction of where the campers should
make camps by the authorities. How
ever, one need only gauge the past
buffeting this piece Of municipal pro-
perty has geen subjected to, to get
line on what its future condition
will be. For instance, it has been
demonstrated that the heritage of
shade is of no value to the Athena
park. and that dead tree is more
ornamental than a live one.

Victory Made a Difference.

During the allied occupation of Ger
many, an amusing encounter took place
between u British soldier and a Ger
man baroness.
The baroness, writes Miss Violet r.
Markham In "Watching on the Rhine"
told British officer that one Of his
men insulted her. Indeed, she de-
clared, she had never been so insult
ed In her life. The officer at once
began inquiries and finally learned
that the lady had found two British
soldiers whistling and sliding down the
banisters of her back stairs. She
had told them sharply that whistling
and sliding on the banisters were ver-
boten. Whereupon Thomas Atkins,
genial and undefeated, had turned to
her and remarked pleasantly, "Aye,
mlssus, but yer should have won the
war, and then yer could have come
and slid down our back stairs and
whlstled."

ENGLISH ARCHERS LOSE HOME
Ancient Organization Puzzled as to the
Disposition Of Its Relics of
Days Long Past.

There is Royal Toxophilite society
In England, which has had Its head.
quarters in Regents park for many
years. Now, however, the society has
to move, and Is concerned as to the fu-
ture resting place Of the wonderful
treasury Of archery relies now In
Archers' hall.
One bow and set of arrows are more
than 1000 years old. These were
taken from the tombs at Sakkarah, In
Egypt, and are believed to have been
in use about 1900 b. G.
Another bow was given to the socl-
ETY. by Mahomet Effendi, embassy
from the Sublime Porte,' In 1904, when
he came to England for the first time,
bringing his bow and arrows with him.
When this Turkish official saw the
ground ut Regents park he said it was
much too small, so he went into a
street outside the park and shot his
arrows into field. The distance was
measured and found to be quarter
of mile. Mahmoud was so pleased
with this shot that he presented his
bow and arrows to the society. The
bow is beautifully carved and is Of
immense strength.

"HELL ON EARTH"

The butchers Of Orenburg, a Rus
sian city under Bolshevik misrule,
sold human flesh over the block un-
til compelled to relinquish their
grewsome traffic because, forsooth,
they began to profteer. This awful
fact is related by Eleanor Franklin
Egan in the Saturday Evening Post,
and she goes on to say:
"Orenburg came nearer to being
hell on earth than anything / had
ever seen either in actual fact or in
nightmares brought upon me through
intimate association with too much
horror. In forty eight hours in that
awful city l saw more dead bodies
than | had ever seen before in the
entire course Of my life, and ! saw
the Chinese famine, as result OF
which people died in sufficient num-
bers. l saw worse filth and more of
it and completer degradation than l
had ever before dreamed of, and !
saw the Armenians at their lowest,
which was low enough. saw dogs
eating human corpses by the road
side while throngs of people passed
by in utter Indifference. And it
was not so much the fate of the dead
that troubled me either: it was the
apathy of the living. l saw starv-
ing men catch and brutally slaughter
pariah dogs for the purpose of eat
ing them, holding them by the hind
legs and beating their heads against
the ice banks with which the streets
were. lined saw worse things than
those"
Such things are almost too horri-
BILE to print. But it is just as well
that they should be known, so that
we may reflect upon them the next
time we stop to hear a Red fanatic
drooling his poisonous doctrine from
the top of soap box.

Sam Haworth, about all that is
left of the Athena volunteer fire de-
partment, or for that matter, any,
thing besides the water system that
stands between fire loss and protect
ion in Athena, discovered and put out
fire in an alley adjacent to Main
street one night this week, after
everyone else was comfortably
snoozing in their beds. This season
of the year, when everything is dry,
it behooves all to see that burning
piles of rubbish are put out effective
ly before leaving them, and right now
is good time to enforce the ordin-
ance compelling them to do so.
