SCHOOL PICNIC
TW7iuVliftl school picnic was held
at Bear Springs last Friday.
The Criterion school bua left the
school hour at 8:30 and arrived at
the destination at 9:30. Mr. Wilson,
Mr. Poling, Mrs. DeVoe, Orville and
Glenn furnished transportation. The
trip was made without mishap.
The time between arrival at Bear
Springs and .lunch hour was spent
in playing bae ball and horse ? hoes.
The school was divided into two
slides, namely the ''Oscolites" led by
Mr. DeVoe and the "Scapoositcs"
led by Mr. Hampton.
Tho lunch consisted of wciners,
bun?, sandwiches, salads, cakes and
lemonade.
From one o'clock till four, games
between the opposing teams were
ployed By four o'clock, after a
very enjoyable time, every one was
ready to gn home. AH were back

floor, fixed up the interior ao a gym
nd made many other improvements.
Only lately, when Stillwcll wanted
the balance of his money, yet due,
did the school turn the property back
to him.
The fire alarm sent to Maupin was
by phone. Chaa. Crofoot called
James Chalmers and Joe Kramer in
response t0 the call for aid. The
two awakened others and when the
Maupin contingent arrived at Tygh
Valley, Chalmers, Kramer, Jim Wood
cock, Job Crabtree and cons, Andrew
tnd Richard, Bobby Davidson and
Chag. Crofoot were numbered there
with. A bucket brigade had been
formed and by hard work the flames
were confined to the old building.
Had there been a wind there is no
telling how many other buildings
would have gone up in smoke.
When the fire was first reported

ATHEESE-MAKING is not a new
U industry in the United States,
the first factory having been
started in New York State in 1851,
but a realization of its importance
has but recently struck the average
American. Part of this sudden com
prehension comes from reading pro
duction figures some 406,686,000
pounds having been manufactured
in this country In 1927. Another
cause is increased knowledge of the
wide variety of cheeses produced in
America.
Limburger cheese, beloved of all
cartoonists, 2s now made here in
luch a way that its characteristic
texture and flavor is attained, but
most of its odor is deleted. Roque
fort cheese, which has been made
only in a gmall district in southern
France for over 800 years is now
being- made in this country r and
through thf absolatj control of
moisture and temperature in the air
and by special processing devlcea.
the resultant cheese is so good thai
even a connoisseur cannot give it
origin. Swiss, cheese is another
which can be produced here; and
mere are others.
Quite aside from its delicious
nawr, - consumers like . American "
cheese because of the sanitary meth
ods of manufacture which prevail
m modern factories and because of
the method of packaging. , Tinfoil ;
wrappers are the most common wat
of protecting small cheeses, but
cheese of many varieties is also put '
up in hermetically sealed tin can.
Canned cheese can be kept in house
hold storage Indefinitely and will
always be at hand for the house
wife to use in making anv of the
