IN BONDS OF
HOLY WEDLOCK
There have been many beauti
ful weddings in Estacada, but
none more so than the one which
occurred Sunday afternoon, Sept.
5th. at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
F. J. Harkenrider, when their
daughter Miss Josie and Harold
O’Neill became man and wife.
The house which was beauti
fully decorated with greens and
pink and white roses, was filled
with a number of guests includ
ing friends from Portland. To
the strains of the Lohengren
wedding march, played by Miss
Anita Paulson, at 2:30, the bride
entered on the arm of her father
preceded by her little niece Neva
Richards as flower girl. Miss
Dora Currin was rrr.id of honor.
Under a bower of greens and
white roses the bride met the
groom who was attended by Eu
gene Scoville as best man. The
solemn service was then read by
the Rev. John Comminsky of
Portland.
The bridal gown was a beauti
ful creation of white satin with
a tulle veil held in place by a
wreath of orange blossoms, while
that of the maid of honor was of
Nile green tulle over silver cloth.
After the ceremony and congrat
ulations a dainty buffet luncheon
was served. The wedding pres
ents were numerous and included
a number of pieces of silverware
and cut glass.
The newly married pair soon
afterwards left in their car ac
companied by the music of peal
ing bells and tinkling tin pans.
Their future home will be in
Ridgefield, Wash., where the
groom owns and operates a saw
mill. The b^st wishes of their
many friends go with them.
The N ews acknowledges with
thanks several pieces of the de
licious cake served on this occa
sion.
Mrs. Milton G. Weatherby and
son Gilbert of Upper Garfield,
are on a visit to Mr. Weatherby
at Kelso. Wash.
They will be
absent several weeks.
The Coming School Year
Next Monday will witness the
opening of the schools for the
coming year and it is hoped that
every boy and girl in Estacada
and vicinity will be ready to
avail themselves of the splendid
opportunity afforded in the com
munity both in the grades and
high school to continue their ed
ucation. Very few communities
of the size of Estacada are blest
with the exceptional educational
advantages which our bovs and
girls enjoy. Every effort has
been made both by the board of
education and the principal of the
schools to lay the foundation for
the most successful school year
in the history of Estacada. New
equipment is being added in a'l
departments of the high school
wherever necessary to afford
more and better school work. A
full four year course in manual
training has been adopted and
new machinery will be added to
meet all demands in that depart
ment the coming year. A full
two year commercial course has
been planned, to consist of ty
ping, shorthand, bookkeeping,
commercial arithmetic and filing.
A special diploma of graduation
will be given in this department
to all who complete the full two
years of work.
Special pains have been taken
to provide the best instructors
obtainable in all departments of
the high school and in the grade
school. The following is a com
plete list of teachers:

A complete list of books need
ed in each grade in the high
school has been placed at the
bookstore and care should be
taken to purchase the right book
in each class. In case of doubt
the student should neither soil
the book nor write his name in it
as in that case it won’t be taken
back.
Every family having a spare
room is requested to notify the
principal as providing living
quarters for students is daily be
coming more difficult. In future
no “ batching” will be allowed
without proper supervision of an
adult person.

ED BONER DOES
H A STUNT
Ed Boner has performed a feat
which will have an imperishable
memory for him. Last Saturday
he left Portland in his car at 2
p. m. with four male companions
for Mt. Hood. They arrived at
the government camp at 7 p. m .
where they stayed for the night.
While it was vet dark, they arose
the following m o r n i n g at 3
o’clock, and started their climb
up the mountain. T.his proved
tedious but they patiently plod
ded abng over the trail of snow
and rock until the summit was
reached, which is six or s£ven
miles above the camp. It took
them nine hours, arriving at the
top just at noon. This proved to
be a narrow ledge of rock. F.d
says the atmosphere was bright
and clear with a little breeze
blowing and it was not cold. On
looking down there was a sea of
cloud 4000 feet below them, out
of which they had emerged. Af
ter resting about an hour, they
began the return journey at 1
p.m., and arriving at the camp at
5 o’clock. They stopped the
night camping out* among the
huckleberry bushes, which were
loaded with fruit, and remained
until I p.m. Monday, when thev
left for Portland, Ed arriving
home in Estacada at nine that
evening. He can now call him
self a Mazama whatever that
means, and can claim to have
been nearer heaven than most of
his friends.
