Sunday, 26th, was Sunday school
Rally Day at Siletz. Subject, "Youth
and the New Day." The church wa
beautifully decorated with autumn
leaves and ferns. The varigated color
of the vlnemaple leaves predominat
ing. The preparation of the program
and the decorations of the room was
done by Mrs. Walter Ross, Mrs. Bert
Robinson and Mrs Barzee. Twenty
three families were represented in the
pageant and thirty-four persons took
part In the. program. David Calvert
led in the old day which was going out
and represented autocracy, hatred, re
venge, brutality, malice, tyranny, ig
norance, anarchy and Bolsheism, the
very opposite of Democracy, rule of
the people and the new day, led by
Rose Gwynn, which represented lova,
friendship, truth, humanity, ovula
tion and democracy. Rev. Waltor llcss
had charge of the singing, Miss Alice
Chalcruft presiding at the piano.
Where each performer did so well it
Is Invidious to make comparisons.
W. S. Hall represented the Church and
Christ. It was well 'arranged and
splendidly carried out. The seating
capacity of the church was taxed to
the limit.
U. C. Brock, Appraiser of the Fed
eral LundT.oard from Spokane, Wash.,

land that had been offered by fanners
as security for Federal loans. He has
been kept busy riding every day and
expects to finish his Inspections ot
these farms by Tuesday of next week.
By invitation Mr. Brock took dinner
at ttie Grange Hall Saturday. He ex
pressed himself as being highly pleas
ed with his visit and especially for the
good dinner that was prepared. He
enjoyed it immensely. He spoke
cheering words of the Grange and
the beautiful Siletz valley. Said the
climatic conditions made it an ideal
place for planting the Loganberry.
This is the coming industry. The de
mand for loganberry Juice, jam and
jelly could not now be supplied and
the demand will increase as the years
o by.
Mr. John D. Rolvwed and Mr. Louis
Lar3on, of Shaunwon, Canada, are
here on a visit at the home of Mr.
Thompson, old time friends These
gentlemen are looking for land and
are very plep.sed with Siletz. The
farmland is increasing in value right
along. The Federal Loan Agent val
ues this farm land at $150 per acre.
Some of it has been sold at $160 pgr
acre and this same land could not
be bought again for near that price.
Rev. Walter Ross, Bert Down and
Joe Cason went to Euker Mt. to hunt
deer and other big game. We havo
not learned what success these nim
'ods have had, but If the deer are wise
they will move away back in the big
mountains nr.d stay there until the
danger is over.
Miss Rente C. Arnold, stenographer
a, the Agency, has resigned her posi
tion in the .office and may engago in
teaching. MM Marjorie Ball has been
selected to fill the place and has al
ready entered upon the duties of the
office.
Siletz, with the spirit of progress,
went over the top In subscribing to
the Roosevelt Memorial Fund. The
quota for the county was $100. Siletz
raised $24, or nearly one-fourth of th.i
amount.
The birthday of Theodore Roosevelt
was fittingly observed at the public
school, Monday 27th. A fine program
of patriotic songs, essays on the life
of Roosevelt, short speeches and de
clamations by the younger pupils
exemplifying the spirit and dash of the
Rough Riders, and the energy, courage
'honor and 'patriotism of the great
leader. The Indians as well aB the
whites subscribed to the fund. Dr.
Carter delivered the address and Prof.
Miller had charge of the program.
Our folks, like Theodore Roosevelt,
believe in one hundred per cent Amer
icanism. Fifty-seven of the Siletz
public school, including the teachers,
subscribed to the fund. Thirty-three
of the citizens of Siletz subscribed to
the fund.

MAKE $10,000 WORTH
OF CHEESE A DAY
An interesting lesson in the growth
of an industry when conditions are
right and producers work together is
shown in Tillamook, Or. A letter from
Carl Haberlach, secretary-salesman for
24 cheeso factories in Tillamook Co.,
says that "we are now making 10,000
worth of cheese per day, and the year's
production will be sold for close to
$2,000,000.
The association, which sells the
cheese of the two dozen factories, has
decided to advertise its cheese, using
city papers and billboards to announce
the worth of tills cheese. It hoe built
on quality. It hires its own tester and
makes the cheese come up to a stand
ard. It demands and gets a fair price.
It might be added that there Id no
poorhouse in Tillamook county.

INDIAN COUPLE ARRESTED
ON LARCENY CHARGE
Dewey Washington and Delia Wil
liams were arrested at the Washing
ton place two miles above the Siletz
Agency, last Sunday on a larceny
charge.
It seems that last Saturday while
Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Hamar werj away
from home someone entered their
house and helped themselves to all
tho provisions in sight, as well as
dishes and culinary articles. To add
In:jult to injury the thief had made
away with a fifty pound sack of sugar.
'Hie intruder wore a pair of calked
shoes and the tracks led off toward
the Washington place. Mr. Hamar at
once phoned for Sheriff Simpson, who
with deputy Bert Geer and Agent
Chaleraft went up Sunday to search
Ithe Washington house. When Sheriff
Simpson knocked at the door it was
opened by Miss Williams, and when
asked as to Dewey's whereabouts s;!ir
informed him that ho was In bed.
Upon searching the house most of Mr.
Hamar's property was found.
They wero brought to Toledo and
lodged in the county Jail until Monday,
when they were given a hearing bs
fore Justice of the Peace Parrlsh.
They plead guilty and were bound
over to the Grand Jury under $500

There has been quite a bit of potty
thievery on the Siletz this fall, and

to some of it.
