COMMUNITY LOSES ONE OF ITS BEST CITIZENS
Estacada and Eastern Clackamas county has lost one
of its most beloved citizens in the death of John Ely. Mr.
Ely had been intimately connected with almost every
worthy undertaking in this section for the last thirty years,
and could always be depended upon to carry his load and
lend his assistance, cheerfully, in any movement for the
betterment of the town and country.
John Ely was really the father of the Estacada Band,
of which organization he was an active member up to the
time his health failed him last winter. He was always
willing to do anything within his power to keep this organ­
ization in tact and contributed liberally to its support both
financially and with his service. This band should be
perpetuated as a living monument to Mr. Ely.
He was active in the Community club, in church work
and, in fact, every worthy cause in the community. The
large number of people who turned out Monday to pay
their last respects to their friend of many years standing,
indicates, to some extent, the esteem in which Mr. Ely
was held by the folks who have known him for these
many years.
His place in this community can never be filled. Time
will eventually heal the wound, but he will always be re­
membered by those who knew him as an upright, consci­
entious, Christian man, who was always devoted to the
service o f his fellowman. The community has been made
better by his having lived.

Its usual prompt and effective relief work in aid of
sufferers from recent floods in the South again brings the
Red Cross into the public eye most favorably, reminding
us of its untiring zeal in the service of stricken humanity.
In contemplating the devotion of this now world wide
agency of mercy it is not amiss to give a thought to that
kindly soul who was its founder, Henri Dunant, a Franco-
Swiss business man, born in Geneva in 1828.
Witnessing the sufferings of the wounded after the
battle of Solferino, Italy, in 1859, he organized a volun­
teer nursing service for their relief. For three years there­
after he lectured and wrote of the horrors he had wit­
nessed, traveling about Europe making his plea for an
organization to meet such emergencies. Officials of in­
fluence were interested and an international conference
was called at Geneva in 1863, with 36 delegates represent­
ing 14 nations and six charitable organizations present.
Thus the Red Cross was born.
Henri Dunant lived to the age of 82, by which time
he had seen the great organization of which he was the
father spread to every civilized nation. Perhaps no man
who ever lived contributed more to the cause of humanity
than he, and millions yet unborn will be beneficiaries of
the noble movement of which his great, sympathetic hearlj
was the inspiration.

Members of Carl Douglass post of the American Le­
gion feel that they have set a good example for other or­
ganizations in paying Sandy a friendly visit. Towns and
communities need friends, just as much as do individuals.
Co-operation of effort can be of mutual benefit and such
meetings pave the way for better understanding and an
opportunity to work in harmony.

The building committee was visited
Tuesday by the Lenz brothers o f San­
dy, who are drawing up plans fo r
a log building for the post, to be con­
sidered before the contract is let.
These boys have built a number of
log houses up the Loop highway and
they are very attractive. With the
amount o f money the post expects
to spend, it is possible, according to
Mr. Lenz, to build a dance floor the
size o f the flo o r in the club house
at Estacada Lake, with a heating
plant in the basement, dining room,
cloak rooms and meeting rooms up­
stairs. The plan has made a hit with
some o f the boys, and no doubt will
receive due consideration from the
j building committee and the post.
