The Carl Douglass Post de­
serves thanks for bringing here
the war films taken at the front.
These must be seen to get an idea
of their educational value, so the
writer will just record some im­
pressions derived therefrom.
1st: The bewildering complex­
ity of modern warfare and its
astonishing development in re­
cent years.
2nd: The magnitude of its
scope and operations.
3rd: The high order of inven­
tive genius it calls into play, for
devising means of destruction.
4th: The wonderful system
by which the operations are con­
ducted and supervised.
5th: The high morale among
the men which was developed
and maintained.
6:h: The tremendous waste
and destructiveness of war.
7th: That it was a high privi­
lege to have taken part in it.
8th: That war is a breeder of
future wars. The vanquished
are imbued with an overwhelm­
ing desire for revenge.
9th: That the paramount duty
of every nation is to maintain
peace, and the stronger ii is, the
greater the obligation.
10th: That to wantonly bring
about war is a most heinous sin.
11th: That it is absolutely
necessary to be adequately pre­
pared for seif protection.
12th: That the next great war
will be ten fold worse as both air
and submarine operations will be
vastly increased.

which the children took part.
One striking feature was “The
Appeal of Nations” by Misses

Helen Wooster, Neva Clute, No­
va Smith and Lydia Matson rep­
resenting respectively, Japan,
China, India, Turkey, France

the church.

Dan Quinlan, of Portland, an
experienced tailor, has opened
a tailor shop in the Odd Fellows’
building, for cleaning, pressing
and altering suits. He will also
do dress making. This will be
very grat¡tying to our people, as
a shop of this kind is badly need­
ed, and we bespeak for him a
liberal patronaje.

MUSIC SUPERVISOR
ASKED FOR SCHOOLS
The January meeting of the
Estacada Parent Teacher Asso­
ciation, Mondav evening, at the
High School, was well attended
and great interest was shown in
the topics under discussion. Miss
Tozier, of Portland, for four
years Play Supervisor, Peninsu­
lar Park, delivered an address on
“ the Value to Children of Super­
vised Play.” Miss Tozier is a
pleasing speaker, and her ad ­
dress was both interesting and
instructive. After her address,
the Association voted to begin
work at once to raise money for
the operation of a supervised
play ground this coming summer.
The round table discussion on
the regulation of social activities
during the school week, was en­
tered into with energv by the
memb< rs of the Associator, and*
many strong points were brought
out. It seemed the consensus of
opinion, that parents and teach­
ers should co-operate for a closer
regulation of social alfairs dur­
ing the school week.
A pleasing vocal solo was ren­
dered by Miss Ruth Dillon and
the Boys’, and Girls’ Glee Clubs.
Each contributed two songs for
the evening’s entertainment.
These were well rendered, and
showed that our high school boys
and girls have real talent, and
that this talent is being develop­
ed in the right way. It is pleas­
ing, indeed, to see our high
school students so willing to do
. their part in community affairs.
A petition, directed to the
school board and signed by a
number of legal voters, asking
that a special school meeting
be held to decide upon employing
a music supervisor for the bal­
ance of the year, was disenssed
and endorsed by the association
bv a vote of 23 to 2.
The Estacada Parent Teacher
Association is steadily growing
in membership, and is showing
itself to be keenly alive to the
needs of the school and the best
interests ot the boys and girls of
the commuity.
