Cougar
PAC
event
draws
crowd
By Charissa McCulloch
For The Chieftain
The first annual Fall
Festival hosted by the
Wallowa Cougar PAC was
a great success. With more
than 100 students in atten-
dance, we met our purpose
of providing a free event to
families in the county.
The festival consisted
of many booths that in-
cluded a caramel apple
bar, cupcake walk, tempo-
rary tattoos, sucker draw,
mad scientist, fortune tell,
harvest craft and mystery
boxes.
There also was a cos-
tume contest with more
than 75 students compet-
ing in various age groups.
The caramel apple bar
was a hit. Apples were
donated and dipped in
caramel. Then, kids had
the opportunity to roll
them in a topping of their
choice. The mad scientist
was fun as well. The kids
got to make slime with
our science teacher Mr.
Journigan. We are thrilled
with the success of the
event and can’t wait to put
on another one.
Our next event will
be an evening filled with
Christmas ornament mak-
ing and Christmas movies
in December.

OUT OF THE PAST
Compiled by Cheryl Jenkins
Items of interest from the
pages of The Chieftain from
this week in years past.
100 YEARS AGO

• Not since the Hayes and
Tiden election of 1876 has
there been a presidential con-
test so close as the present,
and the outcome so long in
doubt. Latest advices today
were that a few states still
hung in the balance, and that
the general result hinged on
them. It seems not unlikely
that the full and final count
will be necessary in all these
states to decide who is the
next president. This should be
finished today or tomorrow.
• Classified ad: The par-
ty who took the ladies scarf
from the E.M. & M. waiting
room election day is known.

• The total assessed val-
uation of the county, except
for public utility property, is
shown to be $11,947,189, in
the figures just compiled in
the office of Assessor C.H.
Allen. Last year the total was
$10,828,655.
• A special train on the
East Oregon railroad brought
the voters of the company’s
camp to town on Tuesday to
vote. Opportunity was given
every voter, both men and
women, to have a free ride to
the polls, and the train came
in with nearly 150 persons.
It was a holiday at camp and
the workers made the trip in
that spirit, turning the trip

• According to research
institutes which study such
things, American girls are
going to have a lot tough-
er time getting a husband in
the future. It seems that this
conclusion is not based on
any alleged disposition on
the part of the male species

AND
to shun marriage, but on the
fact that there is a shortage of
1,000,000 marriageable men
in the United States.
• The Red Cross chap-
ter has received patterns for
children’s sweaters to be knit
from the surplus yarn origi-
nally meant for army sweat-

their yard and directions.
