Afternoon to Swat The
Rum
On last Sunday afternoon the
first out-door demonstration in
favor of putting the state of
Oregon in the dry column was
made by the people of Newberg,
when the various Sunday schools
paraded the streets, carrying
banners, and a public meeting
was held at the city park where
the demon rum was given many
sevei e thrusts.
The line was formed at the
corner o f First and Washington
Streets and headed by Bert Miller
and Wm. Brooks, as drummers,
the procession marched down
First to College, up College to
Fourth and west on Fourth to
the park where the exercises were
held. The number in the parade
was above five hundred.
The exercises were held under
the direction of Mrs. L. A.
Moore, president of the W. C. T.
U. and Kienle’s orchestra fur
nished excellent music tor the; oc
casion.
. »
Readings were given by Miss
Bullard, Miss Bessie K in? and
Mrs. Cora Diedericks, short talks
were given by Bert Miller and
Teddy Leavitt and tbcr$ were
various exercises by the little
folks.
• r '
At night a large crowd
gathered at the park and was
entertained by Jack Frost, the
temperance evangelist from Mc
Minnville, who showed a series
o f stereoptican views illustrat
ing the story, “ Ten Nights in a
Bar Room,” accompanied with*
a forceful running sketch o f the
book given with a strong voice
that could be heard by every
body. A number of very good
pictures of mountain scenery and
various places o f interest were
also thrown on the canvass.
Mr. Frost announced at the
close of his talk that he was
ready to go to school houses and
out-of-the-way places to give his
illustrated lecture wherever calls
were made.
ABOUT THE PURDY CHECK
Editor Graphic:
As a few Telegrams are taken
here by people in Newberg, I
wish to ask you to kindly print
a copy of an article that was
sent to the Evening Telegram on
Monday o f this week, and which
article they have neglected to
publish thus far. This article
was in reply to one published in
the Saturday Evening Telegram
under the heading of ‘ ‘ Purdy
Gave a Worthless Check, He
Says.”
Very respectfully,
Will E. Purdy.
Newberg, Ore., A u £ 9, ’14.
Editor Evening Telegram, Port-
land, Oregon.
Dear Sir:—With reference to an
article which appeared in the
Saturday Evening Telegram,
concerning the troubles o f one
J. E. Maxwell over a check pur
porting to have been given by
Mr. Will E- Purdy, o f this place,
1 wish to state that Mr. Purdy
does business at our bank,- and
while be has used some counter
checks from Portland when he
would be out o f our checks, yet I
can state to the public that no
check has been refused payment
given J. E. Maxwell by Mr.
Purdy which has been received
by the United States National
Bank o f Newberg.
J. C. Colcord,
Cashier United States National
Bank, Newberg, Oregon.
Eggs properly packed in snit-
able containers can be shipped in
quantities of tern dozen for
distance o f 50 to 150 miles and
the containers returned at a
total cost o f slightly more than
three cents per. dozen. The rates
for smaller shipments is slightly
higher, those for larger some
lower, but the difference is not
very great. In any case, the cost
o f shipping the eggs and return
ing the container is less than the
charges o f the buyer, commis
sion man and the retailer, as
made in the usual channels of
marketing eggs.
By taking
advantage o f this situation
producer? should get a little
better price for their eggs, con
sumers should get their good
eggs, at rather less cost, and
consumers’ families should get a
regular supply of good eggs.
For his extra profit on his
eggs the farmer gathers them
regularly each day, twice a day
in warm weather, stores them in
cool, clean places and ships them
promptly.
T h e experimental
shipments by O. A. C. were made
in a container that has ten paper
rolls inside, each roll holding a
dozen eggs in a perforated lin
ing. Its weights is about 4
pounds. When filled with good
eggs of good size the combined
weight o f case, containers and
eggs, is about 20 pounds.
The cost of sending 20 pounds
a distance o f 50 to 150 miles by
parcel post is 24 cents. The
rate for returning the 4-pound
container is 8 cents. Thus the
entire cost o f the shipment o f ten
dozen eggs not counting cost of
container is 32 ceqts, which is
slightly more than 3 cents per
dozen.
BIG DEBATE NEXT SUNDAY
On next Sunday afternoon in
the city park the prohibition
question will be discussed by
men o f ability who will make it
interesting from start to finish.
The dry side o f the question
will be represented by Dr. Clar
ence True Wilson, formerly a
Portland pastor, but now the
genera] secretary o f Temperance
Society of the M. E. church with
headquarters in Topeka, Kan
sas, while the “ wets” will be up
held bj Col. E. Kofer, formerly
editor o f the Capital Journal, of
Salem, but now the editor ot the
Oregon Manufacturer.
Both these men are strong
speakers and there will be fire
works sufficient to keep every
body awake every minute o f the
time the platform is occupied.
CARLTON SAW MILL BURNS
On Wednesday night the plant
of the Carlton Lumber Company,
owned by Charles E. Ladd, of
Portland, was destroyed by fire,
entailing a loss of $500,000.
Help was sent from Yamhill
and McMinnville, and the plan
ing mill and ten million feet ot
lumber were saved. There was
no wind blowing, else the loss
would doubtless have been much
g r e a t e r . Insurance t o
th e
amount of $250,000 was carried
on the plant.
Well! Well!
“ Oh, Mamma!" exclaimed Isa
belle, one night when she came
home from school, “ I saw a
girl across the street I thought I
knew, so I crossed over to speak
to her; she thought she knew me,
but when we got near together,
what do you think, it wasn't
either o f us.”
