Mr. and Mrs. Ott Kaw, of Wolf Creek, visited at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Sullivan, Monday. A number of little folks en joyed themselves at the home of Mildred Bhlum, Friday, it being her sixth birthday. Games were played after which ice cream, cake and fruit was served. Those present were Myrtle Chase, Clare and Clay Egleston, Evan geline Davidson, Myrtle Hous man, Francis Mulkey, Pearl Kohnke, Vernie Housman. Faithful to his Foster Mother's Kind It is written: "The wolf shall lie down with the lamb and the leopard with the kid," etc., and while that period is not yet here we have now and then an incident in animal life which might, perhaps, be a pointer to that which is yet in the future. Our townsman, G. T. Boothby, while canvassing in the interest of the Monmouth Creamery Co., some three weeks ago, became possessed of the knowledge of an incident that is very much out of the ordinary, and is that of a shepherd dog that has taken charge of a herd of goats and re mains with them day and night as their guard and protector. The dog and goats belong to the Kline brothers, who live on the head waters of Big Elk, one of the tributaries of the Yaquina River. When the dog was a pup it nursed on a nanny goat and learned to follow and stay with the flock, and when grown as sumed care and protection over the herd which now numbers about 200. There has been no loss from any of the animals which usually prey upon such herds. The dog exhibits a nervous disposition frequently changing position and place among the herd as though the whole care and responsibility rested upon him. Twice a week he goes to Kline Brothers residence to get some thing to eat and after being served returns to his charge. Installation of Officers Officers of Normal Lodge No. 204, I. 0. O.

After 'Installation ice cream and cake was served and a very pleasant evening was spent M Polk County, Oregon, Friday, REGULAR PORTLAND LETTER Banks of the state show good gains in deposits and resources as compared with similar figures compiled last year. State Bank Examiner Wright finds deposits have grown over $2,500,000 and in practically all departments of the banking business there is good advance. The latest re port sets forth conditions as they existed at the close of business July 3. The Central Oregon Develop ment League is exceedingly act ive, even though a very young organization. Having ' been formed about one week age, it is already making plans for the next organization early in the Fall and J. J. Hill will be invited to attend. The date of the meet ing will be arranged to suit Mr. Hill's convenience. Medford business men will make a four-days excursion through Southern Oregon some ii.:. ii . t i I nine mis monin, visiting LjUKe j view and Klamath Falls, as well j as a number of other points, i Closer business relations with ! this territory is the object sought by Medford people. Union and Wallowa counties will probably form a two-county development league for mutual help. It is believed that greater benefit will come to the north east corner of the state with or ganization and that greater gains will be made in immigration. After visiting 45 towns of Eastern Oregon, J. J. Sayer, field secretary of the Oregon De velopment League, is back at the Portland office, much impressed by his trip through the interior. He is enthusiastic about the pos sibilities and the future in store for Eastern Oregon. Mr. Sayer starts this week for a similar trip through the coast counties. Umatilla County will have a great wheat crop of about $G, 000,000. This country grows about 1 per cent of the cerii.1 produced in the United States. The Mazamas, the mountain climbing club of Portland, will scale Glacier Peak, in the Chelan county, Wash., this year. The annual outing is scheduled for August 2 to 20. Mountaineers of Seattle will join the expedi tion and a large party will at tempt the ascent. After nearly three years' work, the first two miles of the Celilo canal have been completed by the construction firm having the contract. This includes the upper end of the canal and Celilo Lock. It is expected that by another three years the canal will be open to navigation. Esperantists of the Northwest will meet in Portland from July 19 to 21 under the auspices of the local Esperanto club. The meetings will be held in the con vention hall of the Commercial Club. Special entertainment will be provided while the lin guists are in the city. The best list of early closing entries ever made for the races scheduled for the State Fair next September has been secured and the meet will be full of interest as well as to all who like to see July 14, 1911 spirited contests of this kind. While many favorite races are listed, there are more new en tries this year than ever before. WATCH Piano Votes given on Job Work at the Herald Office See offer elsewhere.
