MEMORIAL PHONE PEOPLE AGAIN ÏÏRTAINMENT SUCCESS FOR A U OF BOYS' ACTIVITIES REAU CLUB MEETING AIL SHOULD BOOST FOR FUNDS Need $8,000 Tet to Complete F i nancing of Community Build ing and Memorial Chairman S. L. Parrett, of the for ces who are trying to raise |19,000 to finance the building of the pro posed American Legion Community Memorial building, reports that up to Thursday morning $11,000 has been reported In to him as being pledged toward the new building fund. This leaves nearly $8,000 to raise and of course means some hard work on the part of the solicitors before the fund is completed. However, canvassing is still going on and the committees have not lost heart at all. Some of the lodges and other organizations have made pledges and this leads the committee to believe that others will probably do likewise and this should help materially In swelling the total. Of course $19,000 is a large Bum to raise under present conditions and were the appeal any less urgent or any less universal in its application, it woulld seem impossible, but under the conditions which exist, it is sim ply a case where we cabnot and will not fail. It may mean that a con siderable number will have to give more generously and if certainly means that the campaign must be pushed in every locality until every person has been solicited. Mr. Par rett has asked us to urgy the outside workers especially to push forward their work and try to finish up their territories as quickly as possible. Another call is also made to all per sons who have not been solicited as yet to call at one of the local banks or hunt up a solicitor and make their pledge. And to those who have al ready given, if you gave only $10 when you could have given $25, don’t fail to make an increase in your pledge. Or if you can possibly give $100 instead of the $50 which you pledged, do so at once and thus give the committees all of the en couragement possible at this stage of the campaign. We cannot too strongly urge upon the public the necessity for united effort in this drive. Other commun ities are watching to see whether Newberg will make good in this ef fort. Our own Legion boys are anx iously waiting to see If we are going to back them up in this. We have a tryst to keep with those who sleep In Flandera fields. We cannot fail and if everyone will give something and make that something as much as they can the result will be just what we all want— the complete fi nancing of the building. Your boost may not look large to you, but give it and the united boost will mean complete success.. NEWBERG BERRIAN FLOAT TO, BE DONE IN OIL FOR PRESIDENT C. E. Kemp, who was chairman of the Rose Parade last year at the Portland Rose Festival, telephoned to Chief Blackcap R. A. Butt Thurs day afternoon that they were having a picture of the Berrian float in last year’s parade done in oil painting to send to President Harding with their urgent invitation to come to Portland and attend this year’s fes tival. This will give Newberg an other boost in the way of publicity from last year's float, and should be a strong incentive to greater efforts this year. FOX N E W B E R G POSTMASTER The appointment of postmaster at this place seems to be hanging fire for an unusually long time and much interest has been manifest in the outcome locally. The Graphic has secured the consent of the three con testants who are said to remain In the race to publish their grade stand ings in the recent examlfcatlon. Of course the appointment may be made from any one of these three. The standings are: Fred Hutchens 86.$0, Charles B. Wilson 83.50, and' Archie Seely 80.80. SAYS GRAPHIC IS L IK E A LE T T E R FROM HOME Editor Newberg Graphic: Enclosed you will find check for $2.00 for which keep the Graphic coming another year. Money is scarce, but the Graphic is like a let ter from home, so we must have it, and the editor must have his pork and beans, too. Yours truly, / Arthur Anderson. . Fullerton, N.

The personnel of the orchestra will be as follows: Violinists, Winona Smith. Earl Plnney, Herbert Owen, Clifton Parrett and Royal Gettman, clarinetist, Howard Nottage; cor- netist, Ed Kienle; cellists, Russell Lewis, Alexander Hull; pianist, Mrs. Eva Hummer Hull. The outstanding, big number for the strings will be the “ Andante" from Haydn’s celebrated ‘‘Surprise Symphony,” a thing of exquisite and sparkling melody from the first measure to the last, a piece of music that can be appreciated alike by the cultivated musician and by the man or woman who “ Just likes music, that’s all.” Program notes and ex planations o f this number and others of the entertainment w ill be given by Prof. Hull. For 'cello solo, with orchestra ac companiment, Prof. Hull will play the renowned Bach Aria for the G string, and a Souvenir by Cui. He will appear also in a group of songs by Nevin, and another of humorous Irish and negro melodies. The final pumber on- t$e program w ill be Papini’s Cinderella March, a march with sweeping, virile melodies and strong, catchy rhythm. Other interesting features will be given also, combining to make this, it is our prediction, "the best program that the Hulls have put on yet.” It will be a distinctly worth-while number o f the course, one that you will be sorry to miss. Eight o’clock is the hour. THE BIOLOGY OASSES HOLD AN EXHIBIT OF BIRD HOUSES - « - ' .1«'.. ' An interesting addition to the reg ular parent-teachers' meeting last Tuesday afternoon was an exhibit of bird houses by the biology classes of the 3B grade in-the public school, the 3B grade in tlje library, the 4A and 4B grades in the public school, the 4B grade in the high school, the 5A, SB, and 8A grades In the public school. These classes bad been study ing birds, their identification, migra tion and nesting habits, and wished to invite our moet valuable bird friends closer to our homes and gar dens. After studying styles of bird architecture many children made and put up houses to the numbqf of fifty or more. All but about ten of these are already inhabited by bluebirds, wrens, or chickadees. One enter prising third grader wished to see “ which room could make the most bird friends” and the other grades accepted the challenge. The houses came in so fast that a date was set for the decision and the parent- teachers' association kindly cooper ated so that more interest could be shown in the work. At the exhibit, which was held in the dining room of the grade school, each room displayed their collection upon a special table. The Judges decided that the 3B grade in the pub lic shool, Mrs. Bradley’s room, had the largest and best exhibit with 20 bird houses. The 3B in the library and 4B in the public school were close seconds and the 4B in the high school and the 6A came third. The best individual collection made by any child was that of Lester Saun ders, 6A, and he was awarded a pocket bird guide of Oregon birds. There were in aALl 09 bird houses ex hibited. ^ Mention should be made of the beet houses in each grade which were grouped into three classes by the judges: Class 1— Those made by the child himself: Class 2— Those made by the child with help; Class 3— Those made for the child by some older person. The decisions were as follows: Class 1— Those made by the child without help: Grade SB in the libra ry, Robert Staley; grade 3B in public school, Wyley Clark and Ronald Hutchens; grade 4 A, Margaret Burns; grade 4B In the public school, Myrle Lienard; grade 4B in the high school, Luella White; grade 5A, Car- roll Baker; grade SB. D oric Morris; and grade 6A, Lester Saunders. Feeding table for birds, Carrol Bauer, 8A. Class 2— Those made by the child with help. Grade 3B in the library, Dorman Chase; grade 3B in the public school, Donald Hodson; grade 4A. Reldon Lipp; grade 4B in the public school, Louise Kienle; grade 4B in the high school, Austin Sutton; grade 5A, Carrol Baker; and grade 5B. Ger trude Houston. Class 3— Those made for the child by some older person. Grade 3B in the library, Minnie Birks. (Minnie earned her house by doing her brother's chores while he made it for h er); grade 3B In the public school, Harold Everest; grade 4A, Mildred Smith; and grade 4B In public school, Meredith Davey. Through the kindness of the Miller Mercantile company the best of the houses will be displayed in their win dows for a few days. Then the children will put them up in their own yards."

A meeting was called at the time and place before stated and ns a result of this a general advisory committee was appointed to go ahead with plans for this work. This com mittee will be known as the local Y. B$. C. A. general advisory committee and will assist tbe executive commit tee in the proposed work.
