Six hags of catalogs from one
of the eastern mail order houses
were received at the Estacada
post office last Monday. With
winter coming on, these catalogs
will make first-class kindling,
with their hundreds of pages.
Spend your dollar in Estacada
and it wont be long before it
lands back in your pocket again,
or as Trowbridge of the Supply
Company says: “ Money is made
round, so it can roll. Keep it
rolling around your own home

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.”

Averaging about two cents a m ie in daily
use, Ford c^rs are a necessity to every busi
ness man, doctor, salesman or farmer. And
they serve the family just as well. Every
man is his own mechanic with a Ford. No
need of high-priced experts.
And ‘‘Ford

thing to remember.
