This grange met in East Portland Doo. 1-1,
and was largely attended. Although this Is
not so muoh of a farming region as other
portions of Oregon, when this grange meets
we feel like a little community of our own.
Some of our members are negligent In at.
tending, and sometimes we hetr of granges
aurrenderlng tholr charters, But let us not
feel dlsoouraged, Was there, oyer a society,
howevor long established, that had not such
membrraT Still they exist, and bo shall the
graugo. Thore are sufUclont members who
work with zeal, knowing what we have ac
complished, and are continuing to do, aud
any one who does not feel tin Interest to at
tond to his or hor grange and aasK in its
work, Is not worthy of the name of Patron.
Tho above grango met at 10 o'clock , and pro

earnest Intention of doing hla duty, and wo
feel assured that with proper assistance ren
