I SESSION OF THE POMONA Royally Entertained By Mem bers of Clackamas Grange FINE PROGRAM RENDERED State Lecturer Mrs. Waldo and ' State Mastet Leedy Were Present 32 Re ceive Fifth Degree. Pomona Grange of Clackamas county met at Clackamas on Wednesday, Oo. tober 12, and right royally were the members e ntertained. Has the nat ural scenery of a locality any thing to do with the disposition of ft peo ple? It Beems so for the cordiality of the villagers wos In keeping with the beauty and grandnre of their sur roundings. As representatives from the various cranges entered the vil lage the snow capped and Bun-kissed peak of Mt. Hood smiled down upon them in welcoming gladness, and yet in spite of its smiles, it suggested strength and steadfastness. Its beauty was enhanced by the low ridge of hills, trhough a gap in which this most beautiful peak "in the world can be seen. On the summit and sides of those hills is the dark green of the fir, and the yellow and gold of the oak and maple an artistio foreground for Jtlie mountain picture adding a touch of delicate bouuty to the grand' . ore of the scene, just as the graces of life are an added attraction to the sturdiness of character of the inhabi tants. But this is aside from the sub ject of this article. The Pomona grange met in the Odd Fellows hall, Worthy Master Gries- enthwaite presiding. Reports from the various subordinate granges were read or given orally by members pres ont Eighteen out of the nineteen granges in the county reported. These reports snow a healthy and growing oondition, although a very few granges neod to waken up if they expect to keep up with the proceS' sion. Mrs. Mary Howard, Secretary of the State Grange, as chairman of the Pomona oommittoe appointed to seoure an exhibit for the Lewis and Clark Fair reported that but little progress -vlias been made as yet, but that the bommittee will got to work immed iately. This committee is an advis ory one, acting in conjunction with local committees directing and cor recting thorn in their work. ' Mrs. Judge Waldon, lecturer of the state grange and editor of the Grange Bulletin, mado several short addresses during the day. Mrs. Waldo is an entertaining and fluent spoakor, and her talks wore rocoivod with marked approval and liberal applause by the audionoo. Stato Master Loody stated that an excellent exhibit of products from the variouB counties is being proparod for display at the National Grange Meeting in Portland. Friday, No vember 1!), will be devoted by the National Grange meeting to con ferring the sixth and Bovunth degrees on candidates. The ooromonies will tako place in tho Murqniun theatre. The session of the National Grange will open at the Armory, November 10, and will continue about nine days. Only two resolutions woro intro duced. One by Win, Beard, asked for the appointment of a oonuuittoo to confer with the mayor and council of Oregon City in regard to the estab lishment of pnblio toilets. The other Resolution was introduced by F. M. Gill, and was as follows. "Kesolvod, That Clackamas County Pomona Grange favors the passage of a law making the acceptance of a pass over any transportation line, by a stato, county, or municipal officer a misde meanor, and providing a penalty for its violation; and if the legislature refuses to pass said law, we favor its initiation by tho people. Both resolu tions wore passed. Mr. Shibley, of Springwater, mado a strong appeal in favor of co-opor-ative business enterprises. Tho soore- tary was instructed to correspond with secretaries oi the suDormnnte grangoB in regard to holding a meeting for the purpose of discussing co-opera- tion. The recent action of tho Stato Grango in declaring that Pomona officers are to serve two years, ron dored unnecessary tho oleotion which was expected to take place at this ueeting. Ed Bat 3ates, gatekeeper, and , d;isso b-T,?ivj"K y?u strength too re ward resigned and St ' A" ?rWsts t 'or Ho ,ew aril, rt signed, and ,,,. boX or 3 bosos for The Win.

At the evening session, 82 candi dates received the fifth degree and were afterwards entetrained with a delightful literary and musical pro gram. At the close of the program, those bo inclined engaged in dancing. The session was a most successful one. More than 250 grange members were present. The next Pomona Grange will be entertained by Harding Grange. EVENING STAR GRANGE FAIR. Big Exhibition Will Last Three Days- Near Alt. Tabor Reservoir.

Cook, a well known member of the Order and a farmers Institute lecturer, has a very timely article In the Tribune Farmer of recent date on the Influence of the grange and who should constitute its membership: We are frequently met by the propo sition, To what extent may other occupations and professions be ad mitted? I took occasion recently to say at our grunge meeting in the pres ence of so called professional men that the primary function of the Order was social, ethical and civic uplift; that so long as one-third of our population was agricultural there rested upon this Order more than the burden of purely agricultural matters, and that Its influence Bhoukl reach out and im pregnate the life of our small country towns aye, even the Interior rural cities of the land, that are largely dependent Upon country blood for municipal de- veiupment-"Bna rnai yrv weicomeo these men and women from other walks of life woo came with thought, culture and a proper conception of home and civic duty to our ranka, so long as the leadership, inspiration, In fluence and guiding light came from the farmer and the farm home. Such assimilation with the farmer the host is sure to lead the town man to great er charity for others and blessing to himself. The grange passed through a period of sloughing off this professional and mercantile acquisition twenty-flve years ago, because those men sought to mnke the Order subservient to their own selfish interests. The farmers had not at that time, however, developed that ability for leadership manifest now. If the farm influence is again permitted to give way to foreign ma nipulation then la our fate sealed and a period of decay must strain prevail The moment this outMd Indocac ap pears as a speck upon the nortoon unit ed effort from the farmers must rax It to the earth, never to riM again. 1 have seen the powerful lnflnenc at the grange during the toglabtttr sea son just closed as never before. Are we strong enough to maintain this ef fective ascendency and continue our present growth? Only astute and discerning leader ship will enable us to answer In the affirmative. State and national grange meetings will have to be engineered away from the purely social and good fellowship side of the nronosldon and come to deal with problems fromth cold business point of view. There must be strong men at the helm, ca pable of good Judgment first and then the character and stamina to hold fast, not swerving from the course. A California Grans; of 860 Member. An exchange says Orchard City grange, Campbell, Cal., has been or ganized little more than a year, has 600 members, meets twice each month and has good programmes. The mem bers are mostly orcbardlsts (hence the name) living in the vicinity of Camp bell, located in one of .the finest sec tions of Santa Clara valley, near the Santa Cruz mountains, which are beau tiful the entire year. At one of the Installation services of the grange for refreshments they had what they call ed a prune demonstration, everything but the bread being mado of prunes.
