that this invitation is general to all
the county and Beaverton people
will be made welcome. Mr.
Crawford assisrest the News-Times
that everybody who attends will be
shown a royal good time and be fully
repaid for coming. He says that
good crops are being harvested in
that section, that business is boom
ing in the camps and that so much
lumber is being hauled over the
Washington County end of the pro
posed highway that it is getting cut
up and surely shows the big need
for the road to be built. Grading for
the Portland, Astoria and Pacific
(known as the "Pap" railway) is pro
gressing rapidly and will necessitate
the re-routing of the highway through
Columbia County. As a result, that
end of the road is being neglected,
which accounts for the difficulties en
countered m making the trip at present.

FIRST GRIST MILL WEST
OF THE WILLAMETTE
One day last week George H,
Himes. Secretary of the Oregon His
torical Society, and Lester Scott, of
rortiana, were in uus city and while
here went on a tour of inspection up
Pnckett's Canyon, west of town,
where the first grist mill west of the
Willamette River was located.
The mill was built and operated by
a Mr. Gale, a pioneer of this section
of the country, and for whom Gales
Creek was named. The only evidence
of the mill that was visible at the
tune of the visit was a post on which
the mill was originally located.
' The old grist mill was a crude af
fair, no doubt, and was constructed
practically all of wood. It was pro
pelled by an overshot wheel, which,
of course, was made of wood, with
wooden axles. .
What ever became of the null
stones that did the grinding for the
pioneers of that early day is not
known, and if any of the pioneer cit
iaens of this locality know what dis
position was made of these stones,
which were hand-made and manufac
tured in this community, they will
confer a favor by notifying Samuel
T. Walker or the News-Times office.
Mr. Walker accompanied the gen
tlemen above mentioned to the spot
where the old water mill waa located.
Mr. Prickett hat often thought of
placing a atone or monument at this
historic place where the bread of the
early days was made for our pioneer
