At the last meeting of Mary's Peak
Circle, Women of Woodcraft, Mrs.
Mary Skelton and Mrs. Julia Lafferty
were elected delegates to the District
Convention, to be held at Albany on
. June 24.
Old cans and rubbish is being dumped
along the river near the Masonic ceme-
tery in such quantities as to make the
surroundings most disgusting to the ol
factory nerves. Many people pass over
this walk during the day and the author
ities should put a stop to it.
An invitation has been extended to
the Retail Merchants association to at
tend the National Convention to be held
at Portland June 2, 3, 4 and 5. L. An
derson was elected as a delegate to rep
resent the Corvaliis bunch and he will
-- pack his . little grip on Sunday so as to
get in on time for a front seat. . ,
The officers elect for the ensuing year
for the C. E. of the Presbyterian church
were, installed at the parsonage last
; night and are as follows : . Miss Helen
.Gilkey, president; Mr. . Dodge, Vice
President, Essie Bell, Secretary; Bulah
Gilkey, Corresponding Secretary, and
Mr. Morris, Treasurer.' Light refresh
ments were served. '

A new concrete walk is being con
structed on Fourth street to extend
from the City Hall south to Jefferson
street. This walk has long been needed
the old wooden one being so bad that it
was necesSary to hold to the fence to
pass over in safety.
Mrs. E. Mclntyre has gone to Philo
math where she "will demonstrate the
benefits of the Portable Vibrator which
she has1 introduced here with such great
success. She will be back here next
week during the encampment, before
returning to her Portland office.
It seems a hard task for men to clean
out the burning desire for the demon
of rum when once the fire has been
thoroughly kindled. A pitiful sight
was that of last Sunday when four able
bodied men hunted up and down the
alleys, then to the boat landing and
failing to quench their thirst, they hired
an auto and, boarding it, made a bee
line for "dry" Albany across the river.
There the driver was commanded to
sidetrack and await developments. The
boozers separated and soon came back
with pockets full, hands full and stom
achs full, and when they arrived in
Corvaliis -they were riproriously and
hilariously drunk.
The officers are growing tired of the
boozy condition reported, from Maple
Shade Headquarters and armed with a
search warrant Chief Wells and Deputy
Sheriff McGinness made, a thorough
search of the premises. They waded
through the cobwebs and penetrated
the secret chambers of the famous den
but in all their maneuvering nothing
but empty bottles could be found as a
token of pasj; cussedness. The recent
proprietor had taken the little lamb
Mary, who, like himself, has for many
years been clothed in scarlet robes, and
sought for greener pastures leaving the
Shade under the management and con
trol of another dear man. The officers
have made up their minds to rid the
town of such places and all good citi
zens should render them every assist
ance in their power. The new proprie
tor claims he will run the place as a
restaurant with an air 'of respectability
about it. If so he should turn the hose on
it for a solid week and cleanse both in
side and out. For several years it has
been the leading blind pig of Corvaliis
in ways that were dark and tricks vain
and has given the officers no end of
trouble. ,

Good Way to
Boost Corvaliis
Miss Mary C. Danneman is the con
testant from Corvaliis for the Alaskan
tour offered by the Portland Telegram,
and while many of her friends have
given her generous aid, the people here
should all take enough pride in the con
test for the boost it will be for Corval
iis to have a representati ve on this tour,
to see that Miss Danneman is first in
the race when it ends June 1.
Aside from local pride in th's matter'
the special Pullman that is to take the
winners from Portland to the steamer
at Seattle, will be decorated with ban
ners bearing the names of the towns
from which the victors come and Cor
valiis should occupy a prominent place
among these streamers.
A little active work right now will
place Miss Danneman again at the head
of the list and Corvaliis people should
be only too willing to do everything
possible to aid her in the contest.
First Strawberry Festival
Under the auspices of the Hood River
Commercial Club and the Woman's Club
Hood River will inaugurate its first
strawberry festival, Friday, June 18.
At that time it is expected the berry
season will be at its height and arrange
ments will be made to serve berries in all
their toothsome forms. Time will be
given visitors for a ride over the straw
berry growing district. .The festival is
being made a feature of the strawberry
season at the request of a number of
Portland and other out-of-town people
and it is expected to make it an annual
event.
