PROGRESS EDITION LAUDED.
Oregon City Enterprise. To the
Editor:
Some kind and thoughtful friend
sent me a copy of your anniversary
edition which I have perused with
more than passing interest.
Having been reared on the soil of
Clackamas county there clusters
about those days some of the fondest
recollections of my life. I have watch
ed with profound admiration the per
sistent energy of the good people of
Oregon City and vicinity who have
never for one moment lost faith in the
ultimate supremacy of Clackamas
county as a home spot and peculiarly
rich in opportunities for profitable
personal and financial development.
I do not see why Clackamas county
shall not become one of the richest
farming counties in Oregon. I have
observed with peculiar interest the
way in which the ax has made way
for the plow, and where in the valleys
and on the hills when I was a boy
there was nothing but a thick growth
of timber, now are located some the
finest farms and most beautiful homes
that I know of anywhere. I do not
believe this is all because of my early
attachment, but real merit one will
find underlying all the good things
you and others have said about Clack
amas county if inquiry is made.
The Oregon City Enterprise is one
of the papers that always came to
my father's home on the farm, and I
am glad to note the pretentious and
creditable showing in your progress
and anniversary edition.
Please regard me as one of the
boosters for Clackamas county.
Yours very truly,
CORWIN S. SHANK.

TRIUMPH
My Valentine
Girl
By AMBROSE WHITING
"Yon young people nowadays don't
leem to make much out of St Valen
tine's day that is, you don't seem to
use It for matchmaking. When I was
a young man the girls and the fellers
used valentines for practical purposes."
"How was that, grandpa?" asked a
girl of fifteen. "Tell us about it"
"When I got tired living in the
homestead I wanted to branch off. But
a man can't Bet up a house without a
woman in it. In the first place, be
don't know how to go about it; In the
second, he couldn't take care of it if
he did, and, In the third, if he could do
both it would be the loneliest place on
earth. -h,
"Well, I looked over the girls to see
If there was any one of 'em I would
like for a helpmeet, but they were all
such good girls and so attractive that
I couldn't make a choice. I thought
that if there was only one of 'em I
could do the trick e.sy enough, but
with so many I just couldn't I had
about given it up when St. Valentine's
day came around, and when I went to
the postofflee the clerk handed me an
envelope covered all over with cupids
and hearts with knives stuck into 'em
stamped in the paper. Several persons
were looking at me, and, feeling the
blood getting into my cheeks, I stuffed
the thing into my pocket and got cut
as soon as. I could.
"I took it to the store I was the
only one yet down and, going to the
back window, stood looking at the
handwriting on the envelope for two
minutes trying to find out who it was
from.
"The handwriting wasn't disguised,
so after awhile I remembered whose it
was. Then 1 opened it and there was
a picture and some printed poetry, but
no penwork. If it hadn't been for the
address I'd never have known who was
the girl."
"Why didn't she write crooked?"
asked a little girl of seven.
" 'Cause she didn't want to. I tell
you she was mighty foxy, that girl
was.- She wanted a home as bad as-1
did, and she gave herself away on pur
pose. "What's the use of sending valen
tines and keeping the sender a se
cret? "That's all well enough for the
little tots, but for those who are old
enough to know the meaning of a val
entine It doesn't do. This girl sending
me a valentine and letting me know
who she was just gave me a delicious
pain about the heart That little piece
of paper , with the picture in it seem
ed to me Just the nicest thing I'd ever
come across, and when I thought that
It had been sent me by a real girl I
Just chuckled all over. But what good
would it have done if I hadn't known
who sent it?
"The first time I saw my valentine
girl after that was on the street. 1
saw her coming and she saw me, too,
for she tried to look careless, and wheD
any one tries to look careless they're
very likely to look just the opposite.
I was watching her and by the time
she'd got a few yards from me she
was red as rose and looking all ways
at once.
"I pretended not to notice any
thing unusual and walked on. I Jusl
wanted to see how she'd look the next
time I'd meet her. A few days later
I met her doing some marketing. I
just said 'Good morning' kind of careless-like.
You ought to have seen the
way she tossed her head up and heard
the short crusty 'Good morning' she
gave me.
"I've always believed that instead of
the feller seeking the girl the girl
should seek the feller that is, if the
girl does it right. If my valentine girl
hadn't done, as she did probably I'd
hare been undecided as to which one
of 'em I wanted till they were all so
old that I wouldn't have wanted any
of 'em. or they me. As it was that lit
tle piece of paper and especially the
handwriting on the envelope separated
her from all the rest of 'em. It decid
ed for me what 1 couldn't decide foi
myself. And from the moment I took
It out of the postofflee and learned who
It was from I began to feel different
toward that particular girl from all
the rest.
"After bothering her awhile I besan
to think how 1 could reciprocate Id
some such delicate way. as she had
let on she liked me, for I don't believe
in this blunt love making. The bird
sings to his mate, but I couldn't sing
for shucks. I could appropriate the
beautiful flowers nature has provided,
especially for lovers, so I sent my val
entine girl a big bouquet. A woman
can always understand flowers and
knows mighty well what they mean.
I followed 'em up with myself - the
same evening and found my valentine
girl expecting me. dressed In her best
lib and tucker, evidently ready to car
ry on the work she'd begun."
"Pop," called a voice from the next
reom, "you ought to be ashamed of
yourself to be telling those children
sch a yarn. It's made out ef whole
cloth. You know very well yon were
the most persistent"
Evidently the old lady who spoke
these words had not intended to give
herself away, as she had done half a
century before, and stopped short
The children laughed and clapped their
hands, and a small boy cried out:
"I believe grandpa's story, grand
ma, every, word of it."
"And 1 believe grandma." retorted
the girls.
And irrandDa gave in.

PARENT-TEACHER
MEETING BIG SUCCESS
An interesting meeting of parents
and teachers was held at Estacada
Saturday, County Superintendent
Gary presiding. Miss Hewitt, the
teacher of the primary grades in the
Estacada school, gave an instructive
demonstration of methods in reading,
and her pupils gave a dramatization.
Professor Howard- James, principal
of the Estacada school, presented
"Faults and Excellencies of the Ore
gon School System." He commend
ed the supervision of rural schools,
pointing out that the supervisor has
a large field for his work in oversee
ing the schools and especially in im
proving the equipment and sanitary
conditions. The new certification
law, he said, may make it too easy
for poor teachers to remain in the
profession of teaching. The method of
special taxation need3 revising, he de
clared. Mrs. Devore, a teacher in the Es
tacada High School, opened the sub
ject "Peculiar Natural conditions
which Affect Oregon Schools." It
might be better to have the school in
session to November, she said, thus
escaping the very bad traveling and
dark, stormy weather of mid-winter.
This plan would - also enable the
teacher to instruct objectively in ag
riculture. High schools should be
within travelling distance of all stu
dents who are ready for the work,
that is, high schools should be very
numerous in Oregon, she declared.
A quartet of High School girls of
Estacada sang very sweetly, "Hark
to the Mandolin." The ouartet con
sisted of Rachel Reed, Myrtle Woodle,
Nina Taylor and Lena Harkenrider.
Mrs. Devore accompanied the quartet
and followed them with a beautiful
solo, "Where the Four-leaf Clover3
Grow." She was accompanied by
Rachel Reed. Mrs. Devore re
sponded to the encore with "If
I Had the Key where the
Smiles are Kept." Miss Reed rend
ered a piano solo, ''The Hunting
Song," in a pleasing way.
Mrs. Tate, president of the Oregon
Parent-Teachers' Asociation. address
ed the institute upon the value of the
organization which she represents.
She pointed out the need of a mutual
understanding between' parents and
teachers, and of co-operation In the
very important work of training and'
instructing children. Mothers and
fathers and teachers ought to "get to
gether,'' and a good way in which to
do -this is through organization, ,she
declared.
County Superintendent Gary ex
pressed the opinion that the time is
now ready for the organization of
Parent-Teachers' Clubs.
Commissioner Mattoon spoke in
structively upon the help that the
parent might render the teacher and
thus the child. He indicated that the
parent may give the child intelligent
instruction upon the code of the
school, thus helping both the child
and the teacher..
Professor James spoke of the error
that some parents made in being prej
udiced against the teacher by the re
ports brought by the child. A bet
ter way would be to confer with the
teacher quietly in order to understand
his policy. A neutral attitude is best
until the parents fully understand
the case.
Mr. Gary said that teachers and
principals should always be invited
to attend the meetings of the School
Board. This enables the teacher to
report the condition of the school and
to make requests for supplies and
improvements. Parents should bring
complaints to the board meetings, in
stead of publishing the complaints
abroad.
Why AH
Are
Progressive merchants everywhere have found
the wonderful MAZDA LAMP an immeasur
able benefit to their business. This lamp rad
iates brilliant white rays nearly like those of
the sen. This SUPERIOR QUALITY of
artificial light is produced by a rare metal fila
ment that not only radiates a perfect light, but
gives nearly THREE TIMES as much light
as the ordinary incandescent-and COSTS NO
MORE to burn. It is this remarkable combin
ation of facts that is causing thousands of peo
ple to have their houses and placee of business
wired for electric light. In fact, this new
MAZDA LAMP is swiftly revoktinising ar
tifcial lighting. It is making electricity the
universal illuminant. .

A. A. Baldwin, principal of the
schools in West Oregon City, spoke
upon "Professional Ethics." He spoke
of -the relation of the teacher to his
pupils, declaring the teacher owes his
best to the pupils. Honesty is both
right and politics, he said.
Mr. Gary expressed high apprecia
tion of the fine- work the boys and
girls of the Estacada High School did
in serving lunch.
Professor James read a paper upon
"Health in Education." Often the
rural school breathes overheated im
pure air and sits in badly-arranged
seats. Careful attention should be
given to physical conditions, he said,
in order to have "sound minds In
sound bodies."
LIVE STOCK MARKET
The Portland Union Stock Yards
Company reports as follows:
Receipts for the week . have been,
cattle, 3,284; calves, 54; hogs, 2,582;
sheep, 5.235; horses, 113.
Every division was well supplied
and the market for cattle held up the
first half of the week but towards
the end of the week there was a ten
dency to weaken There were quite a
number of buyers present and several
butchers from surrounding territory
increasing the demand for light kill
ers. Cows and heifers sold up to the
price standard of the week previous
but heavy steers were somewhat
weaker and might be quoted as 10c
to 15c lower. The market was hun
gry for calves and paid $8 for the
only good offering.
The hog market showed some weak
ness and was 10c to 15c lower at the
close of the week. This was in sym
pathy with Eastern markets where
tremendous runs had a tendency to
cut the prices down.
The sheep market was heavily sup
plied hut prices held up surprisingly
well throughout. Ewes sold at $4.10
and wethers at $4 50 which gives an
idea of the strength of the market.
The great amount of inquiry regard
ing the second annual Pacific North
west Live Stock Show indicates a
wealth of exhibits. Special railroad
rates have been granted from all
Northwestern territory.

tive: 62 Steers .1260$6.10
