A pretty little recital was given
at the home of Miss Amy Rowland
on Modoc street last Friday even
nir. Vocal and instrumental mil-
dc, a yard decorated with Japanese
lanterns and refreshments were
pleasant features. About fifty
guests were in attendance.
The recent hot weather played
mvoc witli the apple crop, He-
sides burning the leaves of the trees
the intense heat blistered the fruit
and is causing much of it to fall
from the trees. The terrific heat
was something out of the ordinary,
leimr within one degree of the rec
ord since the weather bureau was
established in Portland in 1871.

red or 50 cents a box. The Krebs

Judging by the present growth
of the city the school house, with
the present addition completed, will
not furnish sufficient room to ac
commodate all the pupils who will
answer the bell at the beginning of
the fall term, September 17th next.
With the present improvements the
central school will have twelve
rooms and an assembly hall. St.
Johns is growing fast, and it will
tax the ingenuity of the school
board to provide accommodations
for the throngs of juveniles who are
sure to seek entrance at the temple
of learning.
A pair of gold rimmed glasses are
at The Review oltice awaiting tne
owner. They were found by Dr.
Hartel. We know the owner very
well, indeed. These same glasses
were lost once before and returned
through The Review. At the time
the nice old gentleman who claimed
them was told if they ever came
into our possession again we would
appropriate them for our own use,
We cannot use them. If we did
we would have to shut our left eye,
and we are right-handed. There is
a hole in one of the glasses. Come
and get your property. You can
use them, localise you are left
handed.
