With winter coming on, these catalogs will make first-class kindling, with their hundreds of pages.

Estacada has had no trouble enforcing its prohibition law in the past two years and the little booze that leaks in, does not get into the hands of boys. While the Garfield Country Club is attracting the attention of social workers and others throughout the state, owing to its being the only organization of its kind in the Northwest, it is attracting especial notice from the local people, as being about the only organization, club or band of people in this community, excepting the lodges, to stick to gether. We wish that President Hunt or some of the other lead ing spirits in the country club would tell us the secret of stick ing together, keeping up interest in regular meetings, overcoming obstacles and internal strife. We dont understand why a commer cial organization in Estacada can not stay together longer than a few months. The Progress is going to have the following sentence set up in plate form, to save the time con sumed in setting it up by hand: “ Many sidewalks in Estacada need repairing.” A Bank A ccount is a business thermometer.
