Skwino Machink FOR SAl.it Inquire at tbli office. i The Biter BiT-Conrad Olson and Charles Vinberg are now servinfr a ninety day sentence in the Portland jail on the charge of gambling, Charles Stromgren being the complainant Strom gren appears to be somewhat of a gambler himself, and those who know say he framed up the game and fully expected to get the money. Finding the cards going against him. he sauealed in the hope of getting his money back. Olson and Vinberg, who are Swedish block cutters, were not wise enough to teU the full story in court, hence 4tne severe sentence. Petitions are in circu lation for their pardon and it is believed by the time they reach His Excellency he will con elude they have been sufficiently punished: especially as fourteen affidavits will be forwarded from parties who have been victims to Stromgren's skill with the cards. BUY at home Certainly no resident of St Helens or Houl ton needs to go to Portland to purchase Christmas presents this year. 1 he home merchants have made ample provision for all, and as there is plenty of compe tition nowadays the pnees are reasonable. It is always best and fair to patronize the home merchant when you are getting a square deal. You cannot build up your home town by sending your money away. Mr. and Mrs, John G. Pringle have moved into temporary quar ters on their broperty in Colum bia Park. They will build a comfortable residence in the springtime. County Court held a short ses sion Wednesday.

A Horticultural Meeting A. B. Cordley, Dean of the School 6f Agriculture at the Ore gon Agricultural College, has ex pressed his willingness to meet with the Columbia County Pomona Grange at Scappoose and deliver his stereopticon lec ture on fruit pests. He will also bring with him three other mem bers of the faculty of the O.A.C. and suggests that a regular hor ticultural meeting be held. The editor of The Mist, as a member of the Pomona Grange Executive Committee, extended this invita tion to Professor Cordley, and would like to hear from Scap poose Grange in regard to the matter just as soon as conven ient. It is a rare opportunity for those interested in horticulture in this county to acquire valuable information. The Guild tea has been post poned from Dec. 7th one week and will be held at the home of Mrs. Day on Dec 14th.
