LENTS TO CELEBRATE SKATING RINK AGAIN THE 4th OF JULY ON THE DEFENSIVE AUTO PARTY VISITS ORt 60N CITY L0D6L During tbe past week the city author ities have had a gang of surveyors on the job, laying out the playground park north of Lents, and making esti mates of tbe amount of soil necessary to fill the pit' It is probable that tbe pit will be largely, if filled. not completely Then the ground will be leveled up and platted for shrubbery and other improvements. Altogether it will make one of tbe beet small parks in the entire city. To say that it will be in valuable to tbe people of Lente is hard ly putting it forcibly enough. And it is due to tbe women of Lents, that this institution is to be supported by the city and at this location. Over a year ago tbe Parent-Teacher club took this up, got special committees ap pointed to wait on the county court with tbe view of getting the use of the ground for play purpose«. This tbe Courts readily conceded, and in addi tion it spent a considerable sum in making improvements and patting it into shape for use. Several neigbor- bood gatherings went over tbe grounds and collected rocks, tin cans and other rubbish and assisted to smooth it down to it would be possible to use it. But tbe real work came wiib the work of raising funds to furnish a num ber of playthings, swings, slides, etc. A “tag day" was held and tags by tbe thousand were sold at ten cents each. A very nice little sum was raised in this way. A committee of women, includ ing Mrs. O. E. Lent and Mrs. Otto Katsky, made special collections of money, apparatus, grace seed, lumoer, and other essentials which were very essential. Then further funds were necessary for tbe maintamence of a watchman over the grounds. Mr. Car) Hollingwortb was engaged to take care of the grounds and to guard them dur ing play hours. It may appear to one at this distance that thia was all easy, but if you could hear tbe women who raised tbe money tell the stories of the various receptions they received, you would conclude that the experience was anything but pleasant. But they per sisted to the end, and with tbe co-oper ation of the various churchee of the town, tbe W. C. T V., and a number of faithful parents, it was carried through tbe summer. During the winter, after the town of Lenta was voted into the city of Port land, a committee of tbe Parent-Teach er club took up tbe ma ter of tbe deed ing of tbe six acre plat to tbe city by the county as a permanent park and playground. The commissioners thought they should have legislative authority for tbie, so a bill was pre pared by Diet. Atty. Evans and put up to tbe Legislature. In this work Mr. Tobin, Dr. More land, Rev. W. B. Moore, Father Beut- gen, Mrs. Katzky, Mrs. Boddy, and Mrs. O. E. Lent, were active and aa a result the bill was passed aDd duly signed. Then came the work of getting tbe city to accept it. This baa finally been accomplished and there ie every reason to think the matter is settled, though it may take some little care to keep things going just right. In all this work the Darner of Mrs. Lent, Mrs. Otto Katzky, Father Bentgen, Mr. Tohin, Mrs. Boddy and the Connty Court stand foremost, nor sill they be forgotten by persona ac quainted with the good work they have accomplished DR. C. S. 0GSBURY COM PLETES DENTAL COURSE. -With tbe closing ceremonies of the Pacific College of Dentistry held in the White Temple last week. Dr. C. 8.
