From Sunny California
To the Editor:
Enclosed you will find a check
to pay mv subscription for the
N ews . We all enjoy the paper
and think the right man has fi­
nally got hold of it. To our old
friends and neighbors I would
say that we are fairly well and
enjoying California’s fruits as
our grapes, peaches, pears, ap­
ples, lemons, prunes, blackber­
ries, strawberries and tomatoes
are all ripe now. It keeps us
very busy taking care of all.
We have enjoyed bathing in the
briny deep this summer, though
Mr. Bland would prefer his bath
water a few degrees warmer.
Eva has learned to swim and al­
so took a flight in an air plane.
Tney went about 2,000 feet up,
remaining 15 minutes. She en­
joyed it immensely and said it
was heaven to her. We expect
to go farther south this fall down
around Covina. We often think
and talk of the good times we
had in Estacada for some stand
out as monuments in our mem­
ories. We may come back and
settle down there yet. I would
like it better there if the sun
shone a few more days in winter.
But I do like the school in Esta­
cada and hope it will keep up its
standard and record it had a few
years back. I also congratulate
the Christian Church on having
its new bell. I wish I could hear
it ring.

Clothing Caught Fire 9
Mrs. Charles Kandel was stand­
ing by a heating stove Monday
morning when a portion of her
clothing caught in the damper
and was set on fire. Miss Gladys
Kandel. was fortunately near by,
and seeing what had happened,
had the presence of mind to take
up a rug and wrap it around her
sister-in-law, smothering th e
flames. In spite of this. Mrs.
Kandel was severely burnedabout
the body. Dr. Morse was hur­
riedly sent for, who attended to
the injuries and made her as
comfortable as possible. It will
probaoly be some time before she
gets over the effects of the shock
and burns.
