were in attendance Saturday eye
ing at the regular weekly meet
ing of Estacada Lodge, No. 175,
I. 0. 0. F. the main business of
the evening being the in itiatio n
of a class into the work of the
first degree. Cyrus B. Law

the victims, and the goat was in
prime condition for the occasion.

dred members and is steadily
growing. The building occupied
by them and by the J. K. Ely

The principles of Odd Fellow

the young man who is starting in
life and who wishes to affiliate
with some organization whose
object is to make this world of
ours a better place to live in.
An Odd Fellow convention is
to be held at Oregon City, Octo

large delegation from Estacada

An Academic Dispute
The Norwegians question the
claim that Columbus was the
first to discover this continent.
But it does not make any practi
cal difference who was the first
discoverer. In any case Colum
bus’ voyage was most adventur
ous, and he it was who aroused
European interest in America.
Our high school football team
\ may be excused if they feel a lit
tle chesty just now.
A paper was circulated last
week among the business men
and others, to raise funds for
providing the football team with
newr equipment. It met with a
generous response as was right.
Those who like mushrooms
must be careful to distinguish
between the edible and poison
ous varieties. The former can
be distinguished by the color of
its gills which at first are pink
and later turn a dark brown.
Never pick one whose gills are
white.
Serial Film to be Shown
The Sunday night shows at the
Family Theatre will consist of a
serial film and a comedy. The
title of the former is “Trailed by
Three” with Stuart Holmes and
Frankie Mann in the chief roles.
It is most thrilling and the trail
leads round the world and you
are taken from the sky scrapers
of civilization to the luxurious
harem of an Eastern potentate;
from America to the borderland
of the Ottoman empire where
east meets west in the conflict of
civilization.
Republican Rally
There will be a rousing repub
lican rally at the Family Theatre
tomorrow, Friday, evening when
Major Cassius R. Peck of Port
land will discuss the issues of the
campaign. Candidates for coun
ty offices will also be present.
Women voters are specially in
vited.
Parent-Teachei Meeting
There will be a parent-teacher
meeting in the High School audi
torium next Tuesday at 3:30 in
the afternoon. All mothers are
urged to come and meet the
teachers.
GAINS AGAIN
Outplayed and outgeneraled
the Jefferson team bowed down
to defeat at the hands of the local
team by a score of 2(5 12.
From the spectator’s point of
view, this game was more thrill
ing than the Camas game, but a
follower of the game would pro
nounce it a very ragged, gridiron
scene, Estacada f urn biers lost
several touch-downs and proved
to be the point winners for Jef
ferson. Raymond
Lovelace was
%
high man in gaining yardage
through the line. Arnold Love
lace helped in bringing home the
bacon by catching t w oblong
passes.
Saturday’s game brought out
several weak spots. Shifts have
been made which is hoped will
strengthen the team materially.
The team ’s fight has increased
100% and their “ pep” never lags.
The High School students, and
especially the team, wish to ex
press their sincere thanks to
those who contributed to the fund
for the purchase of new equip
ment. Forty-eight dollars were
donated in all.
