ST. HELENS MIST. FRIDAY. JUNE 2. 1916
l CORRESPONDENCE j.
WEST ST. HELENS
On Frduy last Prof. HroluuU and
wile left West St. Melons fur Port
land, where they will visit friends
for a while. The professor will at
tend the summer school at 'Eugene.
They will make their home at the
latter city during tiie summer. Con
siderable anxiety is felt among the
patrons of the school as to tho prob
ability of l'rof. Brehaut returning to
this city. A very large majority have
signed the petitions which are being
circulated. It is safe to say that 75
per cent of the citizens oppose the
action of the school board iu pro
posing to cut the salary of the teacher
and reduce the teaching force from
four to three. Prof, lirehaut has
brought the Houltou school to an
excellent standard of efficiency, and
to reduce the working force of the
school is to cripple its usefulness
and success. Economy could better
be practiced in other places than to
save a few dollars at the expense of
our educational work. This is the
verdict of all except a few, and some
of them pay no tax at all.
The seventh and eighth grades sur
prised Prof. Brehaut and wife on
Thursday evening. A pleasant time
was had. Games and plays were in
dulged in and a fine lunch with ice
cream was served. The happy crowd
left "ere the morning broke."
Mrs. George Chambers and her lit
tle daughters Grace and Hazel, visit
ed Mrs. James Chambers at Blind
Slough, going Friday-and returning
Tuesday following. George says,
"Batching aint nice. The nitals are
not regular." Ho agrees fully with
the Scripture, "It is uot good for man
to be alone."
Miss Nettie Amelia Snyder left on!
i lie morning train Tuesday for Salem, ;
where she expects to arrange fori
pest gradunto work in music. Miss'
Snyder expects to go east in the j
early coming fall. j
Karl Bennett is still confined to
his home with severe attack of bron
chitis, lie lias the sympathy of his
many friends, win.. l)opo for his
speedy" recovery.
Mrs. B. I. liummer left Wednes
day for Suleni and Aumsvllle. She
was accompanied by her two Utile
daughters, hois and Maud. Sho ex
pects to bo absent for two weeks or
more. At Salem, under the care of
Dr. Finley, a minor surgical opera
tion is to be performed for her daugh
ter Lois. In tho meantime everybody
is requested and expected to cheer
B. I. in his loneliness.
Congratulations aro in order fitf
our genial barber, who quiet
ly slipped awry on Tuci:.y last and
joined tho Benedict order at Van-
couv.'r. This was to bo a secret for
sonio time but a nos?y reporter
browsing around ho:i;-d the fact. Mr.
a:i.l Mrs. Boiler will reside iu St.
Helens. Their many friends wish
them bon voyago on tho sea of life.
An excellent nudienco was present
cn Sunday morning at tho Memorial
services in tho Houlton Methodist
church. Tho church was finely deco
rated with flags, liTiKiuots, and bunt- j
ing, while Old Glory floated over the!
door of the church outside.
Several appropriate selections were;
sung by tho choir, including "The j
Hero of the Cross," "Battle Hymn of i
tho F.epub'.ic" and "America." Miss;
Xettio Amelia Snyder sang, as a solo, j
"A Dream of Paradise," by Hamilton
Cray. Tlio sermon was preached by
tho paster, text Dcui. 4:8 and 9. Tho
following veterans of the civil war
weio present: Walter II. Smith,
llrower Sen, James Lowe and C. L.
Ayres. Tho last two were accom
panied by their wives.
George Chambers, witli his Ford,
took fhe following company to War
ren and relurn after the evening ser
vice at that place on Sunday: Editor
KaiiU.man, Hev. Sanford Sn.wlor, Mrs.
Snyder and Miss Nettie Amelia Sny
der. Tho kindness of Mr. Chambers
was duly appreciated by all, especial
ly by Mrs. Snyder, ns she Is obliged
to use n wheel chair whenever she
goes out.
During tho sermon on Sunday
morning ut tho Methodist Eplscopul
church tho pasior said: "It is bet
ter to show our kindness mid give
our bouquets to our friends while
they can see their beauty and enjoy
their fragrance than to wait until
they aro ;;one and then cover the
coffin witli foliage." On Monday
morning ho received a lino bouquet
of while carnations and fern, with
iho message: "Hero la one bouquet
for which you need not wait until
you aro dead."
The young people's meeting at the
M. E. Church Sunday evening was
led by Miss Beth Perry. These moot
ing.! aro much appreciated by the
young peoplo, ulso by romo who arc
not to bo classed as "young."
This question is asked on tho street
more often than any other. Will
winter never bo over and summer
never coma? Truly this kind of
weather la quito sufficient to cause
!ho people to loso Interest iu the
Mexican imbroglio, tho war in Eu
ropo and even tho recall election,
while they look with longing guzo for
strawberry shortcuko und garden
Siiss, which latter luxuries seem to
bo indefinitely postponed.
