composed of a number of talented
young ladles from tho nlirhth ind.
pleased tho large audience and rw'
sponded to an encore. Iloth the
singing and dancing were excellent.
In their singing the Chorus Girls
were accompanied by Minn Twirfv
Tarbell, violinist.
John I-affury was a real wild man
and a great curiosity. Ho was only
120 years old and had killed thr
elephants In two years. His hair In
mailed tangles, hung to his waist.
He was confined In an Iron cage
which fairly shook when he raveo.
Many called to see the Wild Man.
During the last few hours of the en
tertainment, he broke from hla cat-e
and It required the services of twen
ty strong men of St. Helens to sub
due him.
The Hula Hula Dancers were
among the main atraetlons: t'orrlnne
Hill and Mariorie 8pecht were dress
ed In typical Hawaiian costumes and
Marjorle Ollby and Tholma Specht
rendered the Island tunes. Claru
March accompanied them on the gui
tar. The Rogues Gallery attracted
much attention and comment. A
number of the prominent men of St.
Helens were pictured aa they should
be and none of them protested.
The side shows were well patron
ised and took In many shekels.
Kashley Peel handled the swimming
concession. It was a rank fake
but Ashley, aided by tho curiosity of
the public, got by smilingly. The
show was a math in a bowl of water.
Another concession which drew
crowds, both men and women, had a
sign out "For Moo Only.", Of course
others wanted to see It and when
they entered the tent tar d pair or
men's suspenders.
There were other good side
shows: the fortune tellers, the fish
ing pond, the Tea warden, The Fat
Woman, and others, but it would
take cloven columns of newspapei
space to tell about them, and since
not less than 1000 people saw the
attractions. It Is not worth while
for me to go Into details and I am
only writing this because the editor
of the Mist said he wanted a good
story. Anyhow, we had a good time
and the proceeds of the carnival
amounted to 9187 and after we fin
ish paying for the stage curtain, we
will turn the balance Into the high

Each driver blames the other for

driving her car at a rate of 20 to 2b

her best to dodge the car.
A broken bottle of moonsnlne In
the Klosterman car, together with
several empty ginger ale bottles,
were mute evidence of the cause of
the accident. According to Portland

WORK PROBLEM
IS OUTLINED
St. Helens Chamber of Commerce
Has Definite Program.
That the St. Helens Chamber of
Commerce expects to do much work
during the coming several months Is
Indicated in the following letter.
The Chamber of commerce moot
ing that was scheduled for Friday of
this week has been postponed to
Thursday evening of next week at
7:30 p. m., at the Orcadla Hotel.
We expect a big .crowd and you
should get your tickets early for
the supper. Price fifty cenU. Bring
members of your family and friends
as this meeting la for the general
benefit of the community. Mr. J. W.
Brewer of Portland, a very good
speaker, will give the main address
of the evening. Should we want a
hot time, telephone .ates will be dis
cussed. Petitions have been circulated for
the establishment of a Union High
School district, and If we are suc
cessful, St. Helens and the surround
ing country will have a fine high
school.
The coming of good weathor makes
it imperative that action be taken to
provide for an auto tourist camp,
the same as our live neighbor Rain
ier has done and they find it a pay
ing proposition, too. Also, our St.
Helens Beach (formerly called Co
lumbia Beach) must bo made more
accessible, and our members should
do some real pick and shovol work
to help fix it up.
The annual Clean-up campaign
will be undertaken next month.
We are making aod headway
with a booklet advertising Columbia
County, and we trust to have it out
quite soon. Many letters are com
ing in from outside states regarding
our cnunty.
The Farm Bureau was recently or
ganized in Columbia county and five
hundred farmers are now Joined In
an organization that will make any
Veep pace with It.
Chamber of Commerce hump to
Wo are planning for one or two
puhllo meetings each month, and we
want you to tell us what kind you
want, and what projects you think
should ho taken up. Each director
of this Chamber is now In charge of
one project and it is up to him to
make god on the work, and your
help Is required.
-The road on the DeSpaln hill
should be fixed up. Will you go
with us to the County Court and
help get the improvement?
Come and tell us what should be
done.

LOCAL SHIPYARD
GEISJITRACTS
Will Build Two Large Barges and
' Make Extensive Repairs on Steam
er Willamette -Mors Work in
Sight and Thirty Men Employed.
Like a ray of sunshine out of a
cloudy sky comes the announcement
that the St. Helens shipyard has se
cured several contracts and that
work has been resumed at that big
plant. Two barges for the govern
ment will be built by the yard. The
Darges are to be 34 feet In width, 138
feet in length and 8 feet in denth.
The approximate cost of each barg
is i9,buv ana Manager Carl Chris
tiansen expects to have them ready
tor delivery within the coming nine
ty days. The order tor the necessary
lumber has been placed with the lo
cal mills and will soon be delivered
and a force of experienced shipyard
carpenters are being sought for.
Another contract which runs into
the thousands of dollars Is the repair
work on the steamer Willamette
which arrived from San Francisco
Wednesday night. Extensive repairs
will be done ln the engine room and
on the decks and tne steamer given
a thorough overhauling. The cost of
the work will be about 116,000 and
will require the services of a num
ber of skilled mechanics. Manager
Christiansen estimates that It will
take thirty days to complete the Job.
The shipyard concern has a tim
ber of other contracts under consid
eration and it Is probable thi.t op
erations will be continued through
out the entire year. The work eon- -traded
for at the present time will
keep a number of men busy until
July 1st., or later and a considerable
amount of money will be distributed
to the workmen. The management
of the company hope that with th
revival of business, conditions will be
such that operation of the yard will .
continue as one of the steady enter
prises or st. Helens.

In many other places, some of them
much smaller than St. Helens, thrif
