ÛUarkamaa Devoted to the Interests o f Eastern Clackamas County V olume 14, N umber 28 TO ORGANIZE BAND FOR ESTAGADA J. K. Ely announces- that a meeting is called at the city hall on Thursday, April 7, beginning at 8 p. m. The object is for or ganizing a brass band. There are a number, perhaps forty, foi- mer band members in this vicin ity, who would insure a good band if they would join. Mr. Roy C. Burtchett who has re cently purchased the tailor shop, is an experienced band leader, and his services can be secured as instructor. As the Carl Doug lass Post intends celebrating the Fourth here in style, Estacada should have a band o f its own, and not be compelled to engage one from outside. Turn out boys and sta^t the ball rolling. Earl Shibley Hurt Tuesday afternoon Earl Shibley met with a painful but not a ser ious accident. He was engaged in raising a pump from the drive well on the farm ‘of G. E. Law rence, of Springwater, prepara tory to putting in a new valve. As the pipe is over 200 feet, the weight is considerable, necessi tating the use o f a derrick. One o f the chains fastened around the pump and the overhead timbers, slipped or broke while it was be ing elevated. The result was the pump fell breaking one of the overhead timbers, which struck Mr. Shibley on the head, cutting a gash, and injuring a'so his right hand and left !ec. Dr. McCall was s .mmone.1, w o sew ed up the cut on the head, and treated o her hurts and brought him home. He looked as if he had been in a scrap, with h s head hand bandaged. He is able to be around at home hut is still pretty sore. However, a few days’ rest, which he badly needs, will set him again to rights. ______________ W h y H e Smiles Warren McWillis, our popular grocer, is going around with an extra broad smile.
