ESIACADA WILL
GIVE THANKS
As was announced last week,
a community service has been
arranged for Thanksgiving day,
in the High School auditorium,
commencing at 10:30 a. m. It
will be of a very simple charac
ter with short addresses by Mrs.
T. J. Reagan, Mrs. Ida Holder
and Prof. F. E. Burns. Several
patriotic songs will be sung by
the audience and the offering
devoted to the Literary Digest’s
fund for the starving children of
Europe, to which President
elect Harding has contributed
$2,500. The auditorium should
be filled to its utmost capacity
on such an occasion, when we
are called to worship and give
thanks by the chief executives
of the nation and state as well
as by the Church. Three hun
dred years ago the Pilgrim
fathers knelt on a barren rocky
shore, not knowing what the
future had for them, yet they
were thankful for having been
preserved on the great deep and
brought to the haven where they
would be. What would they
think of those who having en
tered into their labors and en
joying a harvest bevond their
keenest imaginations, fail to
publicly make acknowledgement
to Him who has prospered them
above all peoples of the earth?
C om m unity Club
The club will meet in the Odd
Fellows hall Friday evening.
An interesting time will be as
sured and matters pertaining to
the welfare of the town and vi
cinity will be discussed. J. W.
Brewer, Field Secretary of the
State Chamber of Commerce,
has promised to attend and
make an address. All members
should be present.
A friend in New York City
sent Mrs. Upton H. Gibbs some
especially fine Italian chesnuts
for the dressing in her Thanks
giving turkey. Needless to sav
the turkey will taste extra good
for this addition.

BLOOD POISON
-
The Rev. J. F. Dunlop, pas
tor of the M. E. Church, is suff
ering very severely from blood
poisoning. About a week ago
while digging p o t a t o e s , he
bruised the palm of his right
hand. He did not pay much at
tention to it' and kept using it
with the result blood poisoning
set in. His right arm began to
swell clear to the elbow, causing
him excessive pain and he had
to receive medical attention.
Sunday he was unable to fill his
engagements, so the Rev. A. B.
Calder from Portland, «copied
his pulpit in the morning and the
Rev. Welter in the evening.
Mr. Dunlop has made many
friends during the two years he
has been pastor of the local
church, by the kindliness of his
disposition, and they will all ex
tend the sincerest sympathy to
him and his family, and hope
that the disease may be checked
and his recovery soon be effect
ed.
Several carloads of telephone
poles were again shipped out of
Estacada this week.
Mr. and Mrs. D. H. Morgan
returned Monday evening from
Roseburg and vicinity.
The Gorral property in north
west Estacada now has a renter
and the family has moved in.

Eugene to spend Thanksgiving
