4-H Club Float In 1948 Lily Parade
A new public drinking foun
tain has been installed by C.
O. Leonard, in front of the
Leonard real estate office.
The recent publicity given
the Brookings ivater by the
Chetco Rod and Gun Club show
was one of the reasons Mr.
Leonard installed the conven
ience for tourists and clients,
he told the Pilot.
Police and Sheriffs’
Offres Alerted In all
Adjoining States
Gangs have been organized to
steal cattle, chickens and most nb
things in a scientific way, it has
been showm through the daily
press, but this area learned a new
/me, Monday.
A huge logging donkey, used by
loggers, was picked up bodily the
first of the week and disappeared
as if a magician had gotten hold
of a rabbit.
This donkey, belonging to El
mer Clauson, and rented by the
Brimm Bros, and Henry Kerr,
up the Chetco. was loaded and
vanished. The road to it had been
re-mad^ after Clauson had dug
a ditch with a bulldozer when the
gate showed tl^t it had been
tampered with.
A donkey, loaded on a truck
did not make as much impression
with people as an old car would.
However, the sheriff’s offices of
all counties have been alerted, as
■well as state police of both Cal
ifornia and Oregon.
This piece of machinery, which
would cause an over-width load,
was never given a highway mov
ing permit, on which angle the
police is working.

Indicative of what visitors to the 1949 Lily Blossom Time parade
this year, is the 4-H float entered last year by the 4-H clubs of the

juvenile division, is one of the colorful exhibits which make this
parade the attraction that it has always been.
