While the above is not the exact quotation, the meaning is there; namely that no matter how small and inferior the article which we arc* manufacturing may be, if we exert every energy to make that article the best that we know how, it cannot help but be recognized. This applies to the product of the Estacadu Co-operative Cheese Asso ciation, which we as a community founded and which a few loyal dairy men are supporting. Kstarada cheese today has made foi itself an enviable name, with many leading wholesalers bidding for the plant'.- output and admitting that the consumer is asking and insisting that they be sold Estacadu cheese. As it stands today, it is costing just as much to manufacture the amount of cheese now being put out by 1 hi* home factory, as it would to manufacture double that quantity, for in business terms, the overhead 1 ■ *cpcnso is the same. .lust why the dairymen of this community do 1 ot stand loyally by ibis home factory is a mystery, for ultimately it will mean bigger re turns from the milk, a steady mar ket and the industrial upbuilding of this community. The case is similar to a farmer who is feeding and keeping a team of horses, when he only has sullicient work to keep that team busy half of each day. Now if that farmer could obtain sufficient work to keep the team busy the balance of the day, he could earn a profit, as his ex ponses would remain the same and his earning power double. So it i*> with the Estacadu cheese factory and it is the duty of every broadminded, up to-date farmer to s e l l his milk to th«» home industry. Wltili the Eastern Clackamas News of Kstacada, and the Morning Ore gonian, of Portland, may differ slightIj in size and circulation aid not always agree on some subiec's, si ch a county division, we noted f ’ otn the-r reprint of the News’ edi torial of last week, that they heat lily agree with us in our denuncia tor) of the so-culled American citi ■ ens who will not exercise their privilege and light to vote. In keeping with the, nation wale e.inrpnicn now under way to con orve our wheat supply, the following pledge hi- been issued from tin* *f lice of I ederal Food Controller. Her herf Hoover: “ l>isii ng that our share of wheat shall go to our soldiers ami to the women and children of Belg H im , France, Fncland and Italy, we pl<edge that tint the next harvest we will abstain f 'om wheat to the utmost c\ tent pos Mo. For those of u> w ho live in ir own homes, this dial! mean tV it wc will .not s e more th m one half pound of wheat prodnets l>er wee1 per person w het he .1* flour in rí ad or in ci i c k e ’-s. 1 C, mnearo' * or breakfast food*). For those of us not living in our our home*, tVs nled,rc sVil nt>*an 1 we will avoid all wheat product- t o the utmost extreme consistent with maintaining health upon foods offer ed at public eating places.” Many of us might easily accept this pledge and thereby do a little more towards aiding our Country’s cause. Petitions were last week signed by the majority of the parents of pu pils now in the Estacada schools, protesting against an action which it had been reported the school board contemplated; namely, of not retaining the services for another year of those popular and capable teachers, Mrs. __ Maud Graham and Miss Rica Anderson of the grammat grades. These petitions may have been premature, as the hoard has made no announcement yet of their inten tions regarding these teachers, hut the taxpayers know that other mem bers of the faculty have been engag ed and that up to the time of pre senting, the protest, no overtures had been made to either of the above in- sti uctors. It is sincerely hoped by the large majority of the parents of Estacada pupils that Mrs. Graham and Miss Anderson will be allowed to continue in their present work; for in their four, five or six years’ service in the t>ast, the* result of their instruction has been amply proven in the work done by the children. The reputation of the Estacada schools is a high one atul can only lie retained by making as few chang es as possible ¡11 its teaching forces, for experience and years of teaching among the same students cannot help hut bring forth better results than ushering in a new set ofs chool mams.

Juno has arrived and summer is here, with the City of Estaca da in a rather unsightly condi tion, as compared with former years, when during the month of May, Clean-Up-1 lay was held. Just why a Cloan-Up-Day was not held this year is a question, hut possibly because the News (’ id not take the matter in hand, as for the past three years. l he News and i t s publisher «are not claiming to have cleaned the City»»! E s t a c a d a , for on former Clean l p Days everyone joined 1 he gang and did t h e i r share, but the fomenting of the clean-up idea and the sticking with it until the deed was accom plished was in a large measure due to tin efforts of the h o m e newspaper.
