OUR SLOGAN: Community Cooperation Devoted to the Interests of Eastern Clackamas County E stacada . O regon T hursday O ctober 9. 1919 V olume 13, N umber 3 ANNUAL RECEPTION FOR TEACHERS The teaching profession should be held in honor, on account of the importance it plays in life. For it comes in contact with the growing generations at the most impressionable stage of their ca reer. On looking back over over one’s life, it will be seen that it has been prpfoundly influ enced favorably or unfavorably, by certain teachers. The habits developed and the truths jnstilled during those adolescent years, have more lasting effect than any subsequent ones. At the time this not known, and it is not un- later years afford a truer per spective. that the fact is realized and appreciated. The teacher has to wait years recognition, and works long without seeing the fruit of his labors. How often his path might have been made smoother and himself cheered, if some ac knowledgement had been made by those who shoald recognize the worth and importance of his effort t . if the chil Iren are not appreciative, their p r rits should be and do all they can to uphold him. Hut do they? The annual reception to welcome the teach- e. s should be well attended, to show that the citizens recognize t iat the schools constitute: one of our greatest assets, and to en courage the teachers to put forth their best endeavors. But the reception last Friday evening, was very slimly attended, and while those present were repre sentative of the best of the town, there were not enough of them to promote much warmth or in spiration. Of the school board only one director was present. Though this perhaps was una voidable, it was unfortunate. J. K. Ely the chairman of the board, called the assemblage to order, making an address of wel come and pleading for support of the teachers. Superinten dent Burns responded, saying he had not been here long enough to formulate his plfms in full, but indicated what they might SCHOOL NOTES The literary societies and class- . es have organized with officers as follows: Adelphic—President, Douglass Drill; vice-president, Jos.

A violin solo by Theo Ahl- berg, who was accompanied on the piano by Mrs. R. G. McCall, followed and elicited a deserved encore. Mayor Bartlett as rep resenting the city, was next called upon and made an earnest appeal replete with humor, for cooperation between the parents and teachers in the parents- teachers association. Mrs. Ii. G. McCall then rendered a piano so lo which demonstrated her pro ficiency on that instrument, and was loudly applauded and en cored. The program was closed then by Chairman Ely. A social time ensued, in which the new teachers were introduced, and refreshments served by the girls of the domestic science depart ment. - -• — — — —— — !■ II Community Club Meets Friday Night The program for the above meeting at the Estacada Hotel, Friday evening, will be of es pecial interest and should draw a large attendance. A report will be given on the road ques tion, showing what has been done, what roads are to be paved and explaining del ails of market roads, also the workings of the new consolidated road districts. Prof. C. I. Lewis and several others from Salem, will be pres ent to speak for the Fruit Grow ers Co-operative Association. Prune and fruit raisers should come to hear them, as the asso ciation is a state wide marketing body. This Community club is trying to develop our resources and it will be rank ingratitude on the part of thd business men and farmers whose interests are thus being promoted, if they do not attend and help along the good work. Women and Sidewalks A bunch of determined women who live on the upper flat of town, being tired of the dilapi dated condition of the sidewalks on upper Broadway, decided to start something themselves. ¿Us ing as a slogan the motto “Make the best of what you have,” they grabbed saws and hammers Wednesday, and enlisting the aid of A. J. Mills and T. C. Jubb as advisors, they sallied out on their campaign of civic improve ment. They worked faithfully during the afternoon and if there were any mashed thumbs they kept mum about them. We make our best bow to them. PRUNES Prunes should fetch a good price because of the work and expense attached to caring and preparing them for market. If any one from Missouri wants to be shown, let him go out to Hen ry Trapp’s farm in Garfield. It is very interesting to go through the dryer and watch the successive operations from spreading the green fruit on screens until it is taken out of the kiln dried and cooled ready to be stored in bins to wait being taken to market. $1.50 P er Y ear ESTUCADA DIG! TROUNCES CAMAS Last week the reporter of the game between Estacada and the Hill Militaay Academy, urged our boys to put more pep in their play. They evidently followed his suggestion, for on going to Camas last Friday, they went with the determination to bust the line of the latter. And they surely did, for Camas didn’t have a show. From first to last, our boys had it their own way. They might have adopted Julius Caesar’s famous despatch, “ l came, I saw, 1 conquered.” This shows that they are getting into their stride and accustomed form again and that steady practice is hvginning to tell. The following notes of the game were furnished by Coach Cossman. (’amas received the kick off the man catching the ball was tackled so hard that the ball flew out of his hands and was recovered by Drill on the 35 yard line. Esta cada scored on the next play. A touchdown was secured by for ward pass, Drill scoring. Esta cada made yardage at will. Camas scored on a fumble by Murphy. Estacada played well together, and the game ended with Estacada on Camas’ 20 yd. line. Final score Estacada 47, Camas 7. The line up for Estacada was: Quarter back It. Lovelace, Full .back V. Anderson, Rt. half A. Lichthorn, Lt* half H. Dillon, Center J. Woodle, Rt. guard II. Cossman, Rt. tackle A. AfTolter, Rt. end T. McKay, Lt. guard S. Pesznecker, Lt. tackle L. Mc- Mains, Lt. end D.
