S.S. Meeting Held
At Pleasant Home
SANDY, Oct. 25. The semi-annual
district Sunday school oenvention was
well attended at the Pleasant Home
Baptist church Sunday. Rev. A.- J.
Ware made a stTong fctlk on the value
of child training. Dr. Abbott gave an
able address, soire points of which
were as follows: "Our boys and girls
are the hope of the future civilization;
there are 100,000 boys and girls in
Oregon between the ages of 6 and IS
years that' are. not in any Sunday
school, and few of these are receiv
ing any religious training at home.
Boys and girls must be saved if the
church is to be saved; the church must i
be saved if the state is to be saved;
the pull of heredity is either np of
down, righti or wrong. The supreme
effort of religious and moral training
should be made during the formative
period, although heredity if felt all
along ihe line of life it is strongest
during the adolescent years ,and the
training " of youth is the surest and
quickest way Of lifting the world up
ward toward God ; and there is no task
in the world comparable to this one."
Rev. Gephart of Gresham gave a
helpful outline on the transit g oi
teachers. . The following officers were
elected: Presidnt, Rev. S. F. Pitts,
vice-president, Mrs. Alta Gentry, secre
tary and treasurer, Mrs. B. C. Altman.
Invitations will be extended to all Sua-
day schools in Eastern Multnomah and

ation The next meeting will be heid

Home next April.

Grade Teacher Is
HI In Portland
SANDY, Oct. 25. Word was receiv
ed this morning by the Sandy school
board that Mrs. Tillman, teacher of
the primary grades, was ill at Portland
with pneumcnia. Mrs. Tillman went to
the city Friday evening as usual to
spend the week-end and was taken
down on Saturday. Mrs. Tillman's
room was dismissed on Monday, and
Superintendent Vedder was asked to
send a teacher to supply till Mi3s Till-
manis able to take charge of her work
again.
Mrs. Anton Malar, principal of the
grade school, is now improving, but
will hot be able to take up her work
for two or three weeks.
SANDY, Oct 24. Mr. aud Mrs He'
man Frey ,who recently returned to
Portland for the winter, were pioneers
in the Firwood settlement in ma
Henry oatman preceded the Freys
thre j years, and Henry Koch and wife
came shortly after. "Idlewild," the at
tractive countryplace of the Frey fam
ily is the same spot that in pioneer
days was but a forest primeval, no
all these years the home fires have
been lighted here at least a part of the
tim each season.
The Freys remember the wind-fall
of January 9, 1SS0. Mrs. Frv was
about her house work, and her hus
band was working on the hill about
oo reet from the house on that briaht,
sunny morning. ' There had been a
snow fall of six inches, and the
ground was soft from hea y rains, Hut
no wind was noticeable, and when a
great noise which sounded like shoot
ing startled me, said Mrs. Frey, I
rushed out to se what was the matter.
My husband could not see the house
but came running to see if anything
was wrong, and great trees were fall
ing in every direction, fences were
blown down and the outbuildings un
roofed, some of the roofs being car
ried 200 yards. Tips of burned snags
broke off, filling the air and flying 50
to 60 feet, many of which were buried
in the ground. While grading at Fir
wood this summer some of these tree
tops were unearthed.
"This windfall felled a swath of
timber three-fcurths of a mile wide
from Portland to Cedar creek no live
timber falling beyond Cedar creek.
"It took 9 men 5 days to clear the
road to Sandy, a distance cf two and a
half miles. The wind came from the
souM.west, there were no clouds and
no rain.
"In the same storm the steeple ,of
the First Presbyterian church of Port
land toppled over, and Gresham, which
place had one house at that time, was
a medley of uprooted trees."
Whf-n the Freys went on their place
the Malar land was tjhe best place on
the road east of Sandy, though thtre
were some trails leading in other di
rections. Mr. Frey who has always been In
terested in the development of this
section is proprietor of the Koessel
and Frey meat market and has done
