A contract has been drawn up by the directors of the association and sent to him for his signature. The matter will be set tled finally at the annual stockholders' meeting which will be held at the Grange Hall on January 11. Growers of the Estacada district held a con ference with F. D. Hunt and repre sentatives of the Gresham Fruit growers' Association Saturday relative to the transportation of fruits and vegetables from that district to the Gresham cannery. Mr. Hunt promised to facilitate the transportation of small fruits and other produce to the can nery. The Gresham Association is working to secure the co-operation of the growers in the Estacada district, and if transportation can be secured at rates satisfactory this co-operation will be assured. Federated Bible Classes at Banquet. The federated Bible classes of the First United Brethren Church, East Fifteenth and East Morrison streets, held a business meeting Tuesday night, which was followed by a banquet.

Mann presided and acted as toast master. Rev. John X. Nisewonder, the pastor, assisted in the meeting. Injured Worker Mat Get $60. Believing that Nels Byrn, a laborer in the water bureau, is entitled to some thing from the city in the way of dam ages for injury received while handling water pipe some time ago. City Com missioner Daly has recommended that the Council pay him a month's salary, amounting to $60. This action has been taken because Mr. Daly got Byrn to sign a waver, releasing the city from all damages on account of the injury, on condition that Mr. Byrn be given some light work at a nominal salary. It was found after this was done that the civil service rules made the ar rangement impossible, so the payment of salary during the period Mr. Byrn was on work was decided upon.

To All My Friends: I wish you a Happy New Tear; also thank you for the many favors you have shown me in behalf of the Salvation Army Rescue Home at 392 East Fifteenth street North. Tou may ask why I should be Inter ested in the home. I. like many another man, did not realize what misfortune was until the Salvation Army asked me to see if I could not make rooms out of the attic of the home. I agreed to do this and it took me three weeks to do the work, but I did it gratis. I learned from the looks of many of the children and the mothers as well, that it was a good institution. I did not know but that the home was paid for, but later on I learned different! There had been paid only $155 on it, but they had obligated themselves to pay $65 a month and 6 per cent interest. There was not sufficient money coming in to meet their obligations, so they came to me to help them out by soliciting for the home. I had seen enough or tne work to be quite interested in it. I therefore, consented to make the home a present of one year's work at a salary of $3 a week. I now have held tn same position for over eight years, and I have taken out but little for myself during those years. Inmates Number 20 to 40. There is always a family of from 20 to 40 in the home, and no individual is a member of the Salvation Army, but girls, women or children who have had sickness or other mishap. Tou may ask. What has the Envoy to do with this? I have helped to re duce the debt from $7000 to $1700 as well as putting $1000 of improvement on the home, paying $500 street assess ment and buying about $1000 -worth of furnishings for the home, so you can see that it is not to make my own liv ing that I am begging. It is for the home. Tou would like perhaps to know where the money has gone. Money came hard this last year. I am glad to tell you I did get $1457.69 in cash and food donations amounting to $214, Then you may want to know what the home got out of it. I expended for room and board for myself during the year $200; streetcar fare, $21; railway fare, $8.75; stage fare, $26.75; salary for myself for year, $80. The total income from my work for the year was $1671.70; expenses for myself for the year $336.50, leaving balance on hand for the home of $1335.20. Expenditures Are Shown. What does the home do with its money? Payments on the home, $780; street improvement, $74.25; new bath tubs and fixtures. $125; fuel for the year, $210; electric light for the year. $40: telephone, $30; gas, $40; water, $12 Tou will understand that when there is a family of from 20 to 40, it takes something to feed them. The girls and women stay, in the home from three to four months, then we get situations for the girls and great deal of the time we care for the children while their mothers are at work. I wish you all to understand that the Salvation Army, in general, stands for lifting up humanity and to build the Kingdom of" God in every individual. We perhaps are not as good as you think we should be, but we are always trying to do better. Last, but not least, I wish to men tion the kindness of the different rail ways in granting me free transporta tion during the year and various other benevolences which they have extended to the Rescue Home." I must also tell you that I have preached in over 200 different places in the interior of the state, where a preacher, perhaps, visits but twice a month and that is where my stage fare has generally gone. God bless you all. O. GUNDERSON. Envoy Salvation Army Rescue Home. Total $17,768.75 PAVING BIDS ARE OPENED Sidewalks to Be Laid and Grading to Be Done on East Side.
