Rebekah Lodges
Hold Convention
Last Saturday many Rebehahs
of District No. 15 (Washington
county) journeyed to G a s t o n ,
where they held their eleventh
annual convention.
This convention is composed of
all members in good standing of
Hillsboro, Scholls, Ranks, Forest
Grove and Gaston Rebekah lodg
es; and the purpose is to give the
neighboring lodges opportunity to
1 become acquainted and cultivate
a deeper fraternal feeling for each
other.
Owing to the inclemency of the
weather, there was not as large
an attendance as had been ex
pected, about sixty being present.
The convention was opened by
! Mrs. Edna Kinton, chairman, of
Banks. After the preliminaries,
1 the address of welcome was given
by Mrs. Florence Bryant of Gas
ton, vice president of the first
Rebekah Assembly of Oregon,
held in Portland thirty years ago.
Mrs. Bryant in her address, not
only gave the visitors a hearty
welcome to the charming little
city of Gaston, but touched on
the early history of Rebekah Odd
Fellowship in Oregon in a most
1 interesting m a n n e r .
T h e re
j
sponse was given by Mrs Jose
phine Case of Hillsboro, after
which the members listened to a
highly instructive address, given
by Mrs. Nellie Wat ten burg, pres
1
i ident of the Rebekah Assembly of
Oregon.
The regular business of the
i
convention occupied the remain
der of the morning and at noon
the Gaston Rebekahs served a
1
banquet which was worthy the
name in every respect.
At 1:30 the convention was
again called to order and at the
request of the president, Hillsboro
lodge exemplified their mode of
balloting on candidates and For
est Grove the manner of intro
ducing visitors from other juris
dictions.
The district deputy presidents
1 of the different lodges were exam
ined as to their proficiency in the
unwritten work of the order and
Mrs. Emily Pogue of F o r e s t ,
Grove was pronounced “ letter-
perfect.”
Election of officers resulted as
follows: Chairman, Marion Moore,
Banks; Vice Chairman. Bertha
Ortman, Forest Grove; Secretary,
Theresa B u r r t, Hillsboro.
A
short literary and musical pro
gram was then given after which
the convention adjourned to meet
next year in Forest Grove.
Scalped the Indians
•
Six to nothing, in favor of Pa
cific University, was the score of
the football game played in the
mud of the P. U. gridiron last
Saturday afternoon with the Che-
i mawa Indians. The touch-down
i was made on a long pass, Lucas
to Fowler, which put the ball on
the one-yard line, when Lucas
went through for the score. The
P. U. lineup was L. Jones, L. E.;
Livesay, L. T .; Romig, L. G .;
Smith, C .; Barendrick, R . G .;
K. Jones and Walker, R. T .; R .
Jones, R. E.; Fowler Q.; Irle,
R. H.; Morgan and H. Taylor,
L. H.; Parker and Lucas, F. H.
The rain was too wet to suit
spectators, but the players didn’t
mind it a bit.
