ASK ELECTION BOARD
TO GIVE TO RED CROSS
All of the members of the primary
election boards of Clackamas county
have been asked to turn their war
rants, amounting to six dollars per
member, over to the Red Cross. In
Sandy precinct No. 2. the following
have been appointed to serve: Flor-
ence V. Sykes, Blanche R. Shelley. J.
H, Weaver, P. B. Gray and Isabel
Gray. Two of these have assigned
their warrants to the above named
use, but the other three members
have refused to do so. It is hard for
a patriotic citiien to understand the
reason for this. We have never ques
tioned their loyalty to the land of their
adoption, and we sincerely trust they
have a reason for their refusal that
will stand the test when the time
comes that others may doubt them.
It seems such a little thing to give a
few hours of our time when the best
of our manhood is giving Its all;
and over there, on the bullet-swept
battle fields, behind the lines, at the
training camps. The Red Cross brings
to them, medical aid, comfort, nourish
ment, the very necessities of life.
Every dollar we withhold here means
that some loved one over there may
die because you have not come across
with some necessary aid.
"Once to every man and nation
comes the moment to decide,
In the strife of truth with falsehood,
for the good or evil side."

than any other county In Oregon.
He has been YOUR sheriff at all timet, standing for ttralght en

CHAMPOEG RARE APPRECIATION
Interesting and Beautiful Scones Along
Willamette River
The following story of a trip to
ChampoeK was written by Mrs. Berths
Adams, city librarian, from notes fur
nished by David Caunold, a pioneer of
Oregon.
Leaving Portland at 7:30 A. M. we
arrive at Oregon City about 8:30 and
then pass Into the locks, lately pur
chased by th I'nltnd States at a' cost
of thrce-hundred thousand, wa are lift
ed forty feet Into the upper river nd
pass the Crown Willamette pai T
mills that employs somcthliiK like a
thousand men.
Passing ort of the locks, on the
east bank we see Canumuh, an old
town, when the boats of early days
tandod and transferred their freight
and puHfienKers to the lower river. It
was also the meeting place of the
Indians to hold their poflach. and
catch their salmon. The Molallas, the
Yamhllls, the Cnllpoolns, tho Mnl-
tnomnhs and Tumwatvrt gathered
with their canoes, thfl Indian name of
which is "Cniilm." The Indians at
tho falls on the lookout for the upper
river Indians on seeing a canoo ap
proaching would sing out to their
frltmds, "Canlm ah," from which tho
whites framsd the name Cunemuh.
And threo miles further up the
river, we come to Rock Island, about
the middle of the Island on the west
side you will s -e a small cottaxe that
Is called Castlo Kemm. It was built
by a noted spiritualist lecturer called
Katie Kemm so that she might be
alone to commune with the spirits of
departed friends. At the head of the
Islund on the east side, way upon the
bluff may bo seen "Col Cotlca" or
balance rock, to which Is attached an
old Indian legend, that at one time
Rock Island formed a dam that back
ed tha water up over the Willamette
Valley and was the home of a great
colony of beaver. Col Colin, an Indian,
was set to watch that the lower river
Indians did not break the dum and let
the wat -r out and destroy tho beaver
homos, but Col Colli went to sleep
and tho dum was broken and for pun
ishment Col Col I a was turned Into a
stone and doomed to stand watch
through all time. ,
From the head of tha Island w
enter a nice, smooth piece of water
skirted by alders, dogwoods, and
balm of glleads, and pass by some
old pioneer pluc.is such as the Canton
wlno place, the J. L. Harlow, John
Kruse. It. V. Short and Ex Gov. Curry
places. Passing under the Wllsonvllln
bridge and then on to lluttovlllo, the
old horn ! or F. X. Muthleu, the futher
ot Champocg day, and In a short time
we arrive at Champong, arriving there
about noon. And then for a cool thadiv
and a picnic lunch which everyone
must bring along or go without.
And after lunch we rej air to the
speakers' stand and llHten to .the
early history of Oregon as told by
those that helped to mako Oregon.
And then we go and view tho monu
ment and read the names of thoHA
that said by their votes that the coun
try should belong to the United
States and not to Great Britain.
