ESTACADA.
MACKSBURG.
The Winter of 1912-3 may confident
ly be said, for this region, to be over
and past. True the ni.shtj are still
chilly, but it is the benencient chill
of protection to our fruit, keeping the
buds, in their winter covering, safe
from the icy blasts that may, at any
time, descend upon us from the frozen
Cascades. In the evening sky, where
the planet Venus is shinning in such
wonderful brilliancy, we may see the
new moon, the moon that fixes the
date of Easter, which is this year, al
most simultaneous with the Vernal
Equinox. The Easter moon will be at
its highest a week before Easter Sun
day, i. e., on Palm Sunday, and we
may consider it the final herald of
Spring.
The passing of the Winter and the
advent of Spring seem to have come
to this vicinity with a rush, the farm
ers are making all haste to get their
seed in the ground before the rains,
which we may surely expect soon.
The busy hosuewives Save planted
many early vegetables and flowers,
indeed, most of the Summer's work
is well on . the way.
Mr. Frank Hilton has just finished
sowing Mr. Baldwin's land with
wheat.
Inauguration day was celebrated in
Mr. Frank Hilton's family in their
own home, it being Mr. Hilton's birth
day. The contagious diseases that have
been prevailing among the. children
of this locality have about disappear
ed. A young brother of Mr. John
Helvy has scarlet fever, but no other
cases are known to exist.
Mrs. Glade, mother of Mrs. John
Heppler and of Miss Lizzie Glade, is
quite seriously ill.
The Misses Julia and Katie Harms
visited the Primary school" last Wed
nesday. Joe Gibson is working for Ed
Graves and Sylvester Gibson is in the
employ of Al Lorenz.
Mr. Charles Kraxberger has had
his barn furnished with an automatic
litter-carrier, a convenience so great
that many others will be likely to fol
low Mr. Kraxberger's example as
soon as possible.
Mrs. Roberts and Mrs. Geo. Walsh
drove together to Canby on Thurs
day. Mr. A. A. Baldwin spent Thursday
at his ranch home.
Mr. Will Wallace, who has recently
returned from Montana, ,is still work
ing in Macksburg and is boarding at
Mrs. Gibson s.
Mrs. Roberts was the guest of Mrs.
Geo. Walsh on Monday.
Mr. Geo. Walsh is hauling hay for
Mr. Eby, Sr.
In the early part of the session of
the legislature the Clackamas delega
tion received a petition signed by 825
of the heaviest taxpayers of Clacka
mas County asking that the school
I superintendent's salary be increased
from $1,000 per annum to ifl.fiOO.
Mr. Schnoerr then introduced the bill.
The educational board- of Clackamas
County agreed with the delegation
that if this increase was made they
would dispense with the services of
one of the school supervisors. There
are three supervisors now and the
three cost the county $3,800 per an
num, or about $1,265 each per annum.J
Conservatively put, one less supervis
or will save the county $,2"0. Mr.
Gary's salary increase is $600. He
is required to send $4 each week
visiting rural schools from Septem
ber 1st to June 7st, and is allowed
$100 extra travelling expenses. Thu
j bill allows him a $60 a month deputy
instead of a $40 a month deputy, so
that the increased cost of his office
totals $940 per annum. $1,250, the
saving on supervisor, less $940 shows
that there is a net saving under the
Gary bill of $310 per annum to the
taxpayers.
There has been so much criticism
offered promiscuously against anv
salary bill that I think that the people
of Clackamas. County are entitled to
know that under this arrangement
they will have $310 less to pay for
their educational department than un
der the old systems.
Every member of the Clackamas
delegation in both house and senate
voted to repeal the school supervisor
law. I am not . including Malarkey
and Lofgren in the delegation in this
matter.

OF COURSE you admit the value of the automo
bile for any one who has to go from one place
to another and wants to get there and back
quickly. We all agree on that point.
The cost of the automobile is what is worrying
you, maybe. ,
You- wonder is it worth the money to you.
Have you ever noticed that when a man buys an
automobile, and, after using it, either in his business or
for pleasure, or for both, sells it, always buys another
one?
Yes? Well, that's the answer.
Buy an automobile, find out thai its price is an
investment rather than an expense, and you can't do
without it You wouldn't want to.

Whatever c luinus music may have
for some animals, the lion appears to
be quite indifferent to tliem. Experi
ments were recently made with a
gramophone at the zoological gardens,
and, though some of the beasts seem
ed to be Immensely pleased, the lion I
did not eveu show curiosity. Grnd :
opera aud musical comedy were alike
to him. He ignored them both.
