aeaalon Just closed. He aald:
'1 am perfectly satisfied with the
training achool this year. It la the
most aucceahful we have ever held and
I believe that only one of the opportun
Itlea haa been missed. Next year 1
ahnll encourage more teachers to camp
on the grnunda. This year thcro were
several camps and I believe that the
few who lived In the park enjoyed
themselves much tnoro than those who
lived In Portland or In Oregon City.
Tho school was divided Into two sec
tions: tho primary department and the
secondary department, Mrs. M. L.
Kulkerson has chargA of the primary

In China, but in tho Pacific It controls part of New Guinea and a number of Island groups near by, Including one of
the Samoan group. Aside from the United States, with the Philippines, the great powers In tbe western Pacific

ISLAND INTO PARK
LAST WORK WIU BE DONE! SUNDAY
Man Turn Out Once a Wk to Clear
Off Land Temporary Bndgs
Connecta I el and With
tha Mainland
Leaa than a month ago the people
of Olndstone decided that they wanted
a city park. Mem ben of tha Cladatone
Commercial cluh and other boosters
for that town now estimate that with
in the next week the park will be
completed and a week from Sunday
w be opened to the public by a bas
ket picnic.
The park Is the Island In Clackamaa
river Just above the Portland Railway.
Light t Power company'a bridge and
consists of about four acrea. It Is cov
ered with large Cottonwood trees and
free from all graaa and brush except
at the upper end where a heavy growth
waa left to protect the (aland from
drift wood during the high water sea
son. A temporary bridge already con
necta the Island with the mainland and
steps have been built from the bridge
to the county road which runs along
the river bank.
Plana for the park were begun the
first of August and have been carried
out through the efforts of the city
council and the Com mere Is 1 club. All
of the work haa been done by residents
or the town who Invaded the island
with axes, shovels ami picks each
Sunday. The first trip to clear off
the land was made three weeks ago
last Sunday when about twenty cleared
off over a quarter of an acre. The fol
lowing Sunday the number was In
creased and much more work done.
and Inst Sunday over fifty men spent
half n day in the work. The last of
tho clearing will be completed next
Sunday. If the plans of the boosters of
the park mature.
In the fall the Island will be seeded
and sometime during the spring of 1915
a permanent arch bridge, which will be
able to withstand the highest stage of
the river, will probably be built. The
Island will form a part of the park
which the town already owns along the
bank of the CIackmas south of the
county road.
At the present time the place is
called iBland park, but this will prob
ably not be the permanent name. The
members of the Gladstone Commercial
club are planning a voting contest to
decide a lasting title of the IBland.
Tho property was the gift of Harvey
K. Cross who also gave tne strip along
the river bank which the city now
owns. The Wlllnmette Pulp & Paper
company qult-clnimed its interest
in the land, shortly after Mr. Cross
gave the city a deed.
The thresher of Walter and Carl
Douglas, of the Alspaugh district, who
has been threshing in eastern Oregon,
was burned on account of the smut in
the groin. The owner had about 10
days more work at tho time of the ac
cident. OF GREAT POWERS IN WESTERN
