CANBY AND SOUTHERN CLACKAMAS
LINEMAN AT AURORA IS
KILLED BY HEAVY SHOCK
vAJNrYF Ore.. Dec. 6. Funeral
services of Leon L. Rice, the young
man who met death near Aurora Sun
day morning when coming in contact
with a Jive wire of the Canby Electric
company he was assisting in repair
ing bunday morning, was held this
atte-noon, and conducted by the
Knights of Pythias Lodge of which he
was a member. The services were
held at Donald, and' were largely at
tended, and interment was in the
Butteville cemetery.
Rice had been employed occasional
ly by the electric company, and was
sent here to repair the lines that had
fallen during the severe storm. The
repair work was being done at 5:30 a.
m., and Rice and an employe of the
company by the name of Chambers,
after repairing lines in Canby Satur
day wre completing the work near
Aurora. When arriving there found
a live wire ob the ground. While
Chambers had gone to turn off the
electricity, Rice had picked up the
wire. It is thought that the young
man believing the electricity had been
turned off by Chambers, took hold of
the wire. When the latter returned
to where fie had left Rice, he found
him dead grasping the wire and his
hand badly burned, one of the fingers
almost ' entirely burned off. As Rice
was slightly deaf, it is thought ne did
not understand Chambers when in
forming him not to handle the wire
until he returned.
The young man was about 27 years
of age, and wa3 well known in this
vicinity. His mother is Mrs. Cone, re
siding near Donald, and formerly of
Kalama. Rice was known by his man
friends as "Mugs," and was popular
among his friends.

medical attention on Saturday. She
recently met with an accident by
falling, whicli is thought to have
hastened her death.

pioneers. She was born in 1866 on
the old hmestead of her father and
mother in the Needy district, and
after the death of her parents, she
took up her home in Canby, where
she resided alone. Miss Samson had
many friends throughout the county,
winning her many friends by her kind
disposition.

F. M. Samson, of Needy. Her sister,
Mrs. Albert Hardesty, of Needy, died
in July 1921. Mrs. W. W- H. Samson,
Oregon City, whose husband was sher
iff of Clackamas county for a number
of years, is a sister-in-law of Miss
Samson.
Heavy Wind Storm
Does Much Damage
SANDY, Nov. 30. (Special). A
heavy wind storm which lasted two
hours and a half put the electric
lights and telephone connections out
here this afternoon. The telephone
lines had just been connected for the
first time since the silver thaw that
came within four miles of Sandy broke
the wires down. Trees have fallen
and the wind was so strong that ma
chines were swung to the edge of the
road and were forced to stop to avoid
being blown over the bluff.
The Sandy school children had a
narrow escape when the top of a tree
blew into the play yard. A tree also
fell across the road near the school
house. Heavy rains are still falling.
The Sandy river is almost as high
as it was last week when the pipe-line
bridge approach was washed out, and
it is predicted the entire bridge will
go out if the storm continues.
Clackamas Jersey
Brings Big Price
CANBY, Dec. 7. Little did the Jer
sey breeders and others attending a
Jersey sale at Beaver Creek, Clack
amas county two years ago realize
that one of the cows selling at this
sale for $360 would some day com
mand a price of $2000.
"Rosie's Pet Lily," before this sale,
owned by A. D. Gribble, of Gribble
Prairie, four miles from Canby, has
"put one over" other Clackamas coun
ty cows, when she sold at the recent
International Livestock show held in
Portland for $2000 spot cash, paid by
J. H. Marston, of the Marston Publish
ing company, of Victoria, B- C- A. A.
Markkanen, who purchased the cow at
the sale at Beaver Creek from Mr.
Gribble sold the animal at the live
stock show to Mr. Marston.
-After purchasing the animal from
Mr. Gribble, Mr. Markkanen entered
her in several livestock exhibits at
county fairs, and she was grand
champion at the Columbia county fair,
and also won first place in her class
of under three years' old.
Not content with only securing this
cow from the Gribble stock, Mr. Mar
ston visited the Gribble farm near this
city during the livestock exposition
this year, with the intention of pur
chasing other Jerseys. "Pride Sailor's
Lassie," seven-year-old cow of regis
tered Jersey stock, by "Pet's Pride of
S. B-" from the same stock as "Rosie's
Pet Lily" that sold for $2000, at once
took Mr. Marston's eye. She was also
purchased by Mr. Marston before leav
ing the farm, the price being $1500.
"Pride Sailor's Lassie" has made a
record for herself at the Gribble farm,
as well as "Rosie's Pet Lily," on the
Markkanen farm.
It was the intention of Mr. Gribble
to retire from the Jersey breeding
after 3o year's experience, but since
there is a demand for his stock, he
has decided to continue, and has suc
ceeded in getting back a number of
head of Jerseys he sold at the Beaver
Creek sale two years ago. Among this is
75 per cent of "Pet's Pride of S. B., Jr."
and 75 per cent of "Petfs Pride"
breeding, and also a daughter and
two granddaughters of "Pet's Pride of
S. B." These are "Belinda of Lone
Oak", six years old purchased at the
Beaver Creek sale by Samuel Torvend,
residing near Silverton, who has re
sold her to Mr. Gribble, who has also
sold "Nellie's Lassie," five years old,
and from Alfred Olson, of Marquam,
Mt. (Gribble has purchased back
"Mabel's Minnie."
ready to take up her duties as a nurse,
She accompnied her sister, Mrs. Elmer
E. McDonald and her husband, and
Mrs. Chloe Deyoe ,of Portland, to this
city.
Dr. and Mrs. John Fuller, formerly
of this city, now of Salem, were in
Canby Saturdy visiting at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Knight, the lat
ter sister of Mrs. Fuller.
Dr. Ben Giesy and Arthur Krausse,
of Aurora, were in canby on business
I Saturday. While here they visited
among some of their old time friends.
Mrs. R. Soper and daughter, Mrs.
Richard Reynolds, were- among those
to go to Needy on Tuesday afternoon
to attend the funeral services of the
late Miss Charlotte Samson.
Canby School Notes
SENIOR CLASS
CANBY, Dec. 8. Eight members
out of the Senior class were present
at the banquet Friday evening.
The Senior English class has been
doing debate work in class and some
very good arguments have been pre
sented. Miss Eyre talked to the Senior civics
class one day last week about the dif
ferent buildings and departments of
government at Washington, D. C. She
has visited there, so it was very inter
esting to hear her description of our
nation's capitol.
We missed Charles Bates the first
part of last week but he got back just
after the six weeks exams were over.
Too bad, Charles, but we hope Mr.
Cold's visit won't be so long and severe
next time.
Three Senior girls, members of the
Teacher's Training II class, are pre
paring to take the teacher's examina
tions this month.

Party For Wedding
Complete Surprise
SANDY, Dec. 5. Mr. and Mrs.Sam
Bacon of Pleasant Home "put it all
over" 31 guests recently when they in
vited the whole bunch of relatives to
an all day "party" and then all of a
sudden in walked Rev. S. F. Pitts of
Cottrell, and Mrs. Julia Thorpe, and
Everette Smith stood up and a wed
ding ceremony was begun. Every
body's eyes fairly bulged out with
surprise. Not even the next door rela
tives had the slightest idea of such
an event taking place, so carefully had
every arrangement been made. After
the surprise ceremony a gerat big din
ner was served and there was a merry
time in the Bacon household. When
the wedding party started to Portland
the crowd got "even" to a certain ex
tent by tying a large water pail of old
shoes and a bell on the backof the
car, -and showered them, with wlieat,
as nc rice happened to Ije. on hand.
The couple will live 'i Portland.

SANDY, Dec. 5. Another meeting of
the taxpayers at the Sandyridge
school house last Saturday resulted in
the advocates of a new school building
winning the day. The vote ?tood 19 to
1. The plan is to build a two room
structure, and not finish one room,
but use it as a play room until needed
for another teacher. The question of
selecting a site for the new building
was left to the following committee:
John Myers of the Burn, Rayburg of
Deep Creek and Skogan of the Cross
road. These three taxpayers are lo
cated at the' furthest parts of the dis
trict, and.it is presumed that they will
all work for the most central site.
The defeated side take the matter
in good part, and Sandyridge will prob
ably be very proud of their new school
improvements.
The district valuation of Sandyridge
is given as more than $100,000, and the
new building will likely cost around
$4,000.

At Chicken Dinner
SANDY, Dec. 6. The biggest social
event in Sandy for many a day was
the dollar-a-plate banquet given by the
Women's club in honor of their hus
bands Thursday of last week at the
Sandy Hotel. A short busienss ses
sion preceeded the big "feed" which
was a regulation dinner with fried
chicken and everything that goes with
it. Twenty-four 'good looking, well
dressed Sandy folk assembled at the
long table that was prettily decorated
with the club colors, black and yel

holly from a Portland flower store.
The favors were tiny yellow baskets
filled with nuts. The club formed in
