comodation or tne motorists passing

park, were discussed, among' them be
ing the Clackamas county fair grounds,
-while, other sites were near Good's
bridge and in the grove near the fair
grounds in the northern part Of the
city. No definite plan was decided
upon, but it is probable that at the

will sail on the steamship Waterdam
from New York on Saturday, April a,
to visit their former homes in Austria
and Switzerland, Mr. Kraxberger be
ing a native of the former country
and his wife a native of Switzerland.
They left Macksburg on February 26
for New York, stopping at several
places while enroute.
While in Austria Mr. and Mrs. Krax
berger will visit, the former's brother,
Frank Kraxberger, a former mail car
rier and hop-gower of Macksburg, who
left here shortly after the armistice
was signed, where he purchased a
township, a large farm, which he is
superintending. He expects to dispose
of this and return to his farm in Clack
amas county at Macksburg. It has
been over 32 years since Charles Krax
berger has visited his native country,
and about as many years since Mrs
Kraxberger has visited Switzerland.
While in the latter country they will
visit realtives of Mrs. Kraxberger,
among these being a brother and sis
ter, whom she has not seen for &
years.
After visiting in these two countries,
Mr. and Mrs. Kraxberger will visit in
Germany, France, Italy, Holland, and
when returning wilf"come by way of
England and will also visit in various
sections of Canada coming home over
the Canadian Pacific. They expect to
be gone for about five months. During
their absence their farm will be" in
charge of their son-in-law, Carl Kalb.
There are six "Kraxberger brothers
owning farms in Clackamas county,
all of whom are located at Macksburg
at the present time, except Frank,
who ia to return, as his family remain
ed here. They have resided in the
Macksburg section for 25 years. Ad
joining the brothers' farms are those
of the two sisters, who married farm
ers of the Macksburg country. Another
"brother, Rev. William Kraxberger, is
pastor of the Evangelical church in
Oregon City.
CANBY, March 30. Tentative
high school here ard the decision to
delay any active steps toward the
proval of a new five acre site for a
erection of , a new " structure for at
least another year, were reached at a
meeting here last night, called for the
purpose of further considering the
proposed union high school consolida
tion, which will embrace some 17 dis
tricts in this vicinity.
The meetns " was one of the most
enthusiastic yet held on this subject.
Representatives from Needy and a
number of the other districts included
in the plan, attended.
The site, which was reported on by
a sub-committee composed of A. H.
Knight, C- H. Sheldon and Arthur
Graham. It is located south-east of
this city, near the William Knight pro
perty. It is owned by Del Clark and
the plan is to secure the aid of local
business men in purchasing the
ground.
The decision to delay the building
operations came as the result of an
understanding with the Canby school
board which was announced at the
meeting. It is now planned to secure
temporary quarters for the grammar
school students and turn over the high
school building entirely to high school
work. As the present structures are
filled to capacity, it would have been
impossible to care for. additional pu
pils in the event of, the formation of
the joint district, wthout the erection
of more rooms. A number of the dis
tricts were adverse to this as it meant
more taxes and some ot them are al
ready paying very heavy school levies.
Use of the high school building for
high school purposes only will be pos
sible for a year or so, the Canby
school board believes and arrange
ments for caring for the primary
classes can be made during this time.
A number of meetings are to be held
in districts where no sentiment "has
been obtained upon the proposed con
solidation. The.definte scope of the
joint district has only been tentatively-
outlined, and no election is to be
held until further preliminary nego
tiations have been completed.

Services Held For
Mrs. Nancy Burns
CANBY, April 5. Funeral services
of the late Mrs. Nancy J. Burns, well
known resident of thia section of the
county, were held from the Methodist
church in this city on Saturday after
noon at 2 o'clock, with Rev. ' Boyd
Boore, pastor, officiating. Many
friends from various part of the coun
ty were in attendance, and as Mrs.
Burns was a lover of flowers, her
grave was completely covered with
beautiful blossoms.
Although Mrs. Burns' age was 90
years 3 months and 27 days old she
was an unusual woman for her age, a
few days previous to her illness, sev
eral weeks ago, she was visiting
friends in this city. . She was born in
Kentucky and later made her home in
Illinois, coming West 33 years ago,
where she has since made her home,
residing most of the time in this sec- j
tion. She was a member of the Chris
tian church for 62 years, and was lov
ed by all who knew her, both young
and old. She had done much charit
able work during her life.

ago, Mrs. Burns continuously resided
on the farm four mile3 from Canby,

J. D. Beebe, engineer for the public
service commission, has-been employ
ed by the city of Canby to make a
survey of the lighting system of the
Molalla Electric company, and place
a valuation upon it in its present con
dition. This action has been taken by"
the city of Canby. following ' a dead
lock in negotiations over the purchase
of the plant.
following the voflng or $10,000 in
bonds for the erection of a new plant
at Canby, -negotiations were started
for the purchase of the existing sys
tem. For some time the city and the
owners of the plant have been unable
to agree upon a price. The operators
maintain that the rate-making valua
tion fixed by the public service com
mission, of $8,067, should be consid
ered as the purchase price and the
city holds that due to depreciation,
this figure is too high.
The present contract of the. Molalla
company is expired within the limits
of the city of Canby, and the city has
refused a renewal due to the raise in
rates of about 100 per cent made last
July. Following a hearing in Janu
ary, a slight reduction in the rates was
granted by the commission; but this
was not sufficient to satisfy the city
and they decided to go ahead with the
plan of operating the plant them
selves. It is desired if possible, to
purchase the present lines, but if no
arrangements can be made it is. un
derstood that the Molalla company's
poles will be ordered off the street
and a complete new system installed
Initial plans for the erection of a j
hydro-electric plant on the . banks of

, Miss Morris has issued her quarter
ly report covering the activities of
the health asociation. It follows in
part:
Previ0u3 Quarter Reviewed
"To follow the constructive health
work attempted this quarter it will
be necessary to review briefly the
progress of the preceeding quarter.
For that quarter 149 social service
visits were made, thus laying in many
instances a basis for the actual ac
complishments of- . the last three
months.
"This quarter 99 social service calls
have been made, a great many of
these have been, made in securing
medical aid for children whose par
ents were not able financially to get
it for them. .
"During January, February, and
March there was the usual amount of
acute -chest illnesses brought to the
attention of the nurse; : little actual
nursing was done altohugh 160 visits
i of that nature were made.
"In . the schools of the county 521
children have ben inspected this quar
ter, 251 have been given a routine
class inspection; in this number 31
children had defective vision, 18 de
fective hearing, 37 defective, breath
ing, 188 defective teeth, 83 defective
tonsils, 21 had skin infection, and 3
had eye defects.
"One of the reasons probably for
the many deficiencies observed in
Public Health work in the county, is
that there is not now, and never has
been a definite countywide program
for teaching health. Natural" kindness
towards children and unfortunates in
Clackamas is enormous, but scatter
ed and spasmodic.
Children Display interest
"Children themselves, keenly inter
ested in the happiness and sturdiness
of a healthy body, often have that in
terest neutralized by poverty or ig
norance at home.
"The solving of the county's social
problems has not kept up. with its
growth in poverty and ignorance. The
very situation that makes Public
Health work in the county necessary,
eives it the handicap of prejudice.
"Communities with the population
of the districts along the carline, have
need of a worker or nurse of their
own; mills with problems existing in
their employee's families might be in
duced from an economc if not-a sen
timental point of view to have a more
'intimate knowledge of their employ
pr's health and happiness.
"During this quarter the nurse has
hf-ld 150 office hours, in which time
250 letters were written, 80 office
calls, and 104 telephone calls were re
ceived." . .
