ST. HELENS MIST. FRIDAY. JULY 2. 1915. GO TO RAINIER FOR ONE DAY Many of St. Helens' citizens are planning to visit our sister city, Itat nicr, during Chautauqua week, after spending the Fourth at home. Every one who can get away will doubtless enjoy the treat that is promised them. The program to be rendered each day is composed of numbers which are unequaled aud to appreciate them one will have to be present. Such numbers as the lecture "The New Woman and the Young Man," by Senator Elmer J. Burkett, in which he makes his audience laugh, cry or' think, and the Hungarian Orchestra, ranks on a par with the most noted musicians of this century and the many other attractions are equally strong. PUBLIC INSTALLATION. The Pythian Sisters of Ava Temple and Avon Lodge, Knights of Pythias, held a formal joint public installation of officers at the City Hall last night and a number of in vited friends enjoyed the evening's entertainment and banquet. While it is generally known that the Knights of Pythias have one of the best drill teams of this section, it was conceded by all present that the sister order was far superior in the installation work last night. After the installation of officers for the ensuing term, refreshments were served by the Pythian Sisters. The following officers were in stalled by the Pythian Sisters: M. E. C, Agnes Dixon; E. S., Bessie Pope joy; E. J Stella Miller; M. of T.J Ella George; M. of R. and C, Sarah Quick; M. of f, Anna Richardson; Protector, Delia Sutherland; G. of O., Florence Laws.

It was unanimously voted that they would be glad to reconsider their previous actions of dlsbandment and reorganize if the city would furnish the department with some kind of conveyance to get the hose carts to and from (Ires when needed. The Mist, and we think we will be sustained In the statement, thinks that all this trouble which has been j brought about In the last few days is unnecessary and uncalled for. If the . matter had been properly brought be fore the city council in due time for action before this company voted to disband, no doubt but what the coun cil would have taken some action and aided the department In every way possible under present conditions, as any citizen knows without saying that the department the past couple of years has been an asset to this city, that they have saved thousands of dollars for the citizens goes with out dispute.
