looked forward to by girls who
have heard ihoir companions en

are the chapel of the pines, the

"Making the Most of Yourself”
classes have been arranged to give
instruction in developing greater
poise, increasing personality assets
and improving personal appearance.
There will be discussion ot club
problems, intensive training in loa-

In speaking of conference, Miss
Lowers said, "Delegates will meet

In the council meetings they will
lie interested in the same things
they are and they will have prob

together. By such exchange of ideas
and experiences, new and lusting
friendship* are made. We feel that
conference is one of the most

have. And of course our progtam

Clean-Up Day or W**k Be Held
At the regular meeting of the
Town Council called to order by
Mayor Wilson Monday evening, all
of the Councilmen were present.
Livermore arid Rossi came in im
mediately after roll call.
The minutes of the meeting of
May 7 were read, and corrected
before they were approved.
The communication of the Re
construction Advisory Board about
the proposed sewer project, and the
letter from P- L. Patterson con
cerning Ordinance 157 were both
ordered placed on file.
Orainace number 157 was passed,
after three readings. It provides
for the settling and adjusting of
the lien for the improvement as
sessment of the Town of Beaverton
against Lots 43 and 46 of Hock-
en s Acres, an unrecorded plat in
the Town. The ordinance author
izes the acceptance o f a deed to
part of the the lots in payment
of the lien, the execution of a
deed by the town to the reat of
the lots to M. H. Stevenson, and
the cancellation of the assessment
lien against the lots on the lien
docket of the Town of Beaverton.
After a discusison of the mat
ter, it was understood that the
water committee would have the
consent of the council to negotiate
with H. J. Cooke in regard to an
extension of the water line to his
place, and to make whatever ar
rangements they thought best.
Mr. Amacher made his monthly
nuditor’s report, which was accept
ed by the council
The Recorder was authorized by
a motion made by Myers, second
'd by Barnes, arid passed, to pur-
'hase a $1000 water bond.
Bills that were presented to tha
■ uncil were ordered paid.
Some months ago the City Coun
cil decided to hire the streets of
-• 2 - cr*on swept and steps were
taken to make things a little more
eemly. At Monday night’s councl
-Ti'-eting this week, the member i
eard sc” ?ral reports that the bus
inessmen were net co-operatir.g with
the Council very sell along thii
line.
One report was to the ettect
that one of the businessmen on
Broadway was keeping his refuse
intil after the stre t had been
ew-'tpt up nicely on Saturday, and
then he vould dump paper, salt,
’•efuse and other debris in the
gutter in front of his place o f
business.
i ut perhaps the strongest pro
test along the lines of keeping
things clean and sanitary came
with regard to the conditions pre
vailing nround the Safeway Store.
Here, it was reported, decayed fish
and meat had been dumped out ami
an attempt made to burn the stuff
in an open barrel without taking
any precautions to carry the smoke
up where the odor could be dif
fused in the upper strata of air.
It was also reported that this
store was lax in keeping the walk
in front of the store clear and
that though the management had
beert requested to co-operate in
keeping the premises sanitary they
showed little inclination to co-op
erate.
These reports led to the Recor
der’ s being requested to have the
health officers draw ud a sanitary
code which the council expect to
make into an ordinance providing
for summary treatment being meted
out to future offenders.
Right along the line with thi*
came a request on the part o f
one of the councilmen for a “ Clean-
tip” day or week, and that the
city pay for the removal of can»
and such like refuse that gradually
accumulates around homes where
tin cans provide a part of the
menu for the family.
This w*s answered by the state
ment that the
town) now had an
authorized garbage collector who
would dispose of this refuse, that
many of the residents were avail
ing themselves
with the services
provided by this authorization and
that it should be a matter for the
individual to keep his premises in
a proper condition rather than for
the town to do this work free of
charge to the individual.
This discussion ended without tha
nutter coming
to a voU,
