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

be. 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.

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.

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. Drill. Sub
stitutes were A. Lovelace for
McKay, Murphy for Lovelace
and Lovelace for Murphy.
