The l-ents school entertainment,
held in the assembly hall on the af-
temoon nnd evenig of January 21.
was a great success, At both per-
formaneis the hall was filled, every
seat being taken. The program was
run off without a hitch and «very
number was presented in a most cred­
itable manner.
i’he dramatization of “Three Little
I-1 ". n»“ by some of the lttll<- ones in
M*ss Osborne’s room was a good
starter and everyone was amused at
the antics of the kittens and charmed
with thrir costumes.
The little maids from Miss Da-
mon’a room who gave a Japanese
song and drill were also most heart-
They
ilv received by the audience,
were very fetching in their dainty ki­
monos, and made a delightful picture
aa they danced around the stage, each
carrying her fan and parasol.
"Mother Goose Up-toDate” was the
number given by Miss Wolverton’s
and Miss l.awrenson’s rooms.
As
character aftsr character came forth
from the pages of the big Mother
Goose book In the center of the stage
the audience indeed felt itself back in
Mother Goose land. All our favorites
wore there—Humpiy Dumpty, Little
Miss Muffet, Georgie Porgie, Mistress
Mary. Tom the Piper's Son, Jack Hor­
ner. and all the others, even the Old
Woman Who Lived in a Shoe and ev­
ery last one of her children. Another
v< ry pleasing feature of the enter­
tainment was the hoop drill given by
white-clad maidens from Miss Bing­
ham’s room. A popular number was
Anita Henry’s dance of "The High­
land Hing.”
Mias MuncuFs pupils gave a dia­
logue song which was well sung and
well received. Three girls, Virginia
Sibley, Irene Sunderland and Madon­
na Bradbury added variety to the
program with tiy-ir recitations.
One of the most ambitious and de­
lightful feature of the entire program
was the butterfly dance given by
Miss Michel’s pupils. The fluttering
of th* butterflies, the elaborate ]>oses,
the dances under the colored lights
»nd the accompanying song, all com­
bined to make it a most popular num­
ber.
“Lining Songs in Living Pictures”
by pupils from Miss Steinberge's and
Mrs. Chick’s rooms concluded the
program. This number was also par-
tieulnrly good The quaint pictures
nnd the songs that went along with
them made a great hit
The entire performance was one
that reflected much credit upon both

pupils and teachers.
HIGHWAY TRIP BEAUTIFUL
EVEN IN WINTER MONTHS
The Herald reporter was one of a
party making the trip over the Col­
umbia Highway Sunday, and the trip
was well worth the taking, even in
the winter months. The scenic fea­
tures were wonderful; to a lover of
nature beautiful beyond description,
in the party were eastern people, who
were loud in their praises of Oregon’s
premier attraction.
They expressed
the opinion that if the highway was
situated close to Chicago or any of
the other large cities, it would have
been commeiTialized to the limit, de­
tracting greatly from its attractive­
ness. At Crown Point, a high gale
drove all who stopped to admire the
view into the Vista House for shelter.
The top of one car was blown into
strips, and the occupants loet their
headpieces while trying to hold the
damaged top.

PARENT-TEACHERS HOSTS
FOR JAN.-JUNE GRADUATES
The Lents Parent-Teacher associa­
tion entertained the January and June
graduates with a joint class party on
Wednesday evening in the school aud­
itorium. About 70 or 80 graduates
were present. An invitation was ex­
tended to the parents of the pupils to
attend and they responded most
heartily. A large number of the old­
er people were present and joined in
the ganu-s and stunts with the pupils.
After the games and races of all
kinds had been indulged in to the sat­
isfaction of all, the committee on re­
freshments announced that the tables
were just groaning with all kinds of
cake and plenty of punch. This an­
nounced was received with applause
and all fell in line and marched to
the lunch room.
Needless to say,
they did full justice to all the things
provided.
15 ng artificial flowers were effec­
tively employed in the decorative
scheme. All enjoyed a good time and
were reluctant to go home. The even­
ing will be long remembered by both

School Needs
Parents’ Help
The following communication from
B. A. Thaxter, principal of the Lenta
school, is self-explanatory:
To the Patrons of the Lenta School:
I know that all the good people of
l-«nts are interested in the school that
their boys and girls attend, and I feel
sure that they are willing to do any­
thing within their power to make the
school more efficient.
We, into whose hands are commit­
ted the welfare of your children for
a number of hours every school day,
sincerely desire to help our pupils H
every way possible. We are eager to
--ec them make real progress, both in
their studies and in their character­
building.
We are anxious to have
the co-operation of the parents in
this, and we feel very grateful to
those who have so unmistakably
shown us that we can count on their
assistance at home.
I plead for one thing now. While
1 have not seen the figures from the
other schools, I fear that Lenta has
mode a very unenviable lveord for
itself th s term in the number of cases
of tardiness. I fee) sure that in many
instances those have been unnecessary
and that concerted action on the part
of us all, parents and teachers, can do
much to cut down the large total.
School begins at 8:45 in the morning
and 1:00 p. m. in the afternoon. Will
you not kindly see that your boys and
girls leave home early enough to
reach the schoolhouse at least five
minutes before hours for beginning?
It will help us all here at school and
above all it will inculcate in each
child the habit of punctuality.

CITY PAVING PLANT HAS
REMARKABLE RECORD
The most remarkable record of a
municipal activity for the year 1920
was made public Saturday, when the
report of the city’s new paving p'ant
was filed with Commissioner Barbur
of the public works department by
Superintendent Robert S. Dulin.
The report shows that the Portland
paving plant bid in open competition
with private contractors on nineteen
major projects during the fiscal yaer
and won them all. The difference be­
tween the lowest private bid and the
price for which the city plant com­
pleted the job attained a total of $68,-
419.80.
"This represents a direct saving to
property owners along the newly
paved streets," Commissioner Barbur
said. “Had not the city plant been
in the field to break up the paving
monopoly the property owners would
have had to pay over $68,000 more
for their paving, or gone without it.”
In addition to putting down pave­
ment at record low cost, the city plant
paid all its own operating expenses
and in addition turned into the city
general fund a profit of $11,824.9.5.
This sum is available for public use.
replacing in part the tax revenues
heretofore necessitated.
A total of 156.875 square yards of
dulinite pavement, equal to seven and
one-half miles of city street, was put
down by the Portland paving plant
during the fiscal year. This was a
larger amount than the total work
done by al) private contracting cor­
porations combined.
In addition to completing new
street improvements, the city plant
nude a total of 3483 cuts, with sub­
sequent repairs, for utility companies

Moose, Grizzly and Unknown Tenderfoot
ANCOUVER, B. C.—Few big game
hunters In the Yukon are as well
V known
as Mrs. W. W. Dickenson,
middle-aged woman who has hunted
moose, deer, caribou, mountain goats
ami bears for many yrtirs In Immense
stretches of territory which are still
marked “unexplored” on recent maps
of the Far North,
She has Just returned after a se­
ries of exciting adventures In the Tes-
lln Lake country, where she spent
some time hunting moose and grls-
slles.
To avoid being frosen In, Mrs. Dick-
enson had to make a flying trip out
of the country, with plenty of provi­
sions, but only a leaky 32-foot boat
and a white guide. For nine days
she and her companion battled with
the turbulent waters of the Hootslln-
qua river, said to be the wildest
stream In the Yukon, frequently hav­
ing to rush for the shore and bale out
the boat to avoid sinking. E.ery morn­
ing the boat had to be chopped free
of Ice before It could be launched.
While Mrs. Dickenson failed in her
objective, bagging only game of aver­
age site, she did see the skin of what
she believed to be the biggest grizzly
ever shot In the Yukon.
It was shot, curiously enough, by a
tenderfoot from Chicago. The tender­
a foot and his guide came across the
partly eaten carcass of a splendid
moose, evidently killed only a few
hours before. For half an acre the
ground was torn up, showing a terrific
fight had raged.
The guide was confident the moose
had been attacked and killed by a griz­
zly, and that only a bear of extraor­
dinary size could have overpowered
the big moose. Knowing the grizzly
would return later to finish his feast,
the two men wafted until evening. The
Chicago hunter got his game.
Tbs moose head, which had a
spread of five feet, was taken to Chi­
cago.
Who Is the Chicago tenderfoot No­
body seems to know.

Business Men Enjoy Banquet
Tuesday evening, January 25, at
6:15, the Arleta Business Men’s elub
enjnjed a banquet in the vextrj room
of the Arleta Baptist church. Follow­
ing the dinner, an open meeting was
held, to which men and women were
invited. A goodly crowd of around 60
were present. A short musical pro­
gram opened the meeting. Rev. Owen
Day followed with a short talk in
which the surprising fact was pre­
sented, that unless something was
done, moneys’ to the total of 5,000,000
daily for the fiscal year would lie ap­
propriated by the armament bill^md
not one dollar has been raised yer for
the enforcement of the Volstead act.
It looks as though some one should
get busy. Rev. Day presented a set
of resolutions to be sent to Repre­
sentative McArthur. The resolutions
were accepted by the elub.
Mr. Spiers, principal of Arleta
school, gave a very able address on
the school situation.
All present
seemed to be very much alive and in­
terested discussions followed his talk.
The fact foremost in the minds of
those present is the need, the urgent,
crying need, of an active, concentra­
ted, united effort on the part of par­
ents, churches, school and the gen­
eral community to rectify the very
apparent, very flagrant, evils that
exist in our midst. The problem la
an immense one, and it will take the
thoughtful, earnest work of many to
get the desired results. But results
se must get and quickly.

school is the largest grammar school
in the city. Necessarily the problems
are many and diversified. More about
this matter will appear in the Herald
during the coming weeks. Watch for
it and be ready to do your bit.
Woodmere School
A special assembly of the children
was held Tuesday morning at which
time Mr. Coffin, of the traffic depart­
ment of the city, delivered an address
on the importance and need of “safe­
ty first.” Carelessness in crossing
streets, boarding street ears, riding
steels and skating often result in the
permanent injury of someone.
Mr.
Coffin is making a campaign in favor
of “safety first” all through the city
schools.
A bit out of the ordinary will be
the celebration of the graduating
class this term. Instead of the usual
exercises, the class will go on two
exeursiors. They will visit the Ore­
gon Historical Musetun and the Cir­
cuit Court and the Portland central
library. At the library Miss Rock­
wood, head of the reference depart­
ment, will guide the class. Some of
the things of especial interest they
will examine will be books on Oregon,
Audoubon bird books and the Curtis
Indian pictures Miaa Julia Spooner

Miss Gertrude Thontson, who has
