NEW CURTAIN AT HIGH SCHOOL
Friday, a new curtain was in-'
stalled in the high school. This has
added a great deal to the high
school. For a number of years we
have talked about a new curtain but
every time something would come up
which prevented our getting one, bo
a new movement was recently start
ed by the high school and helped
along by the townspeople made it
poslble for them to carry it through.
And now the next time a play is giv
en they won't have to worry with
the old curtain which we have had
for the past several years.

127,240 FORD CARS
BOLD IN APRIL, 1022
Ford Retail
Sales Hit New High
Mark.
According to a report just received
from the Ford Motor Company, De
troit, a daily average of 5,210 retail
sales of Ford cars and trucks had
been readied by the close of April in
the United States alone.
Ford Bales of cars and trucks for
the month, Including both domestic
and foreign, totaled 127,249. This
establishes a new high record, ex
ceeding the largest previous month,
June 1821, by 15,467.
The sale of Fordson Tractors has
also been steadily climbing. A total
of 11,181 Fordsons were sold during
April in the United States, a daily
average of 4G9 having been reached
by the end of the month. This
gives the tractor a new high sales
record, and showB 100 per cent in
crease over the best month In 1921.
The Ford Company lB enjoying a
banner year in all departments.
Output of Ford cars and trucks for
the year, according to present esti
mates, will exceed 1,100,000, which
represents a ten per cent increase
over 1921.
The Ford factory at Detroit is
now operating at full capacity, har
ming a force of more than 40,000 men
the payroll. The scheduled output
or May will pronamy reacn iat,uuu
cars and trucltB' which will be ap-
plied against orders approximating
166,000.
Despite the attempt of the factory
and the twenty-three assembling
plants in the United States to pro
duce a sufficient number of cars to
meet the unusually heavy demand,
Is has been impossible for Ford deal
ers In most cases to make immediate
deliveries. v

Hi Life
Monday was a sad beginning but
good Innings for a number of B.
S. students. This being tbe last of
the six weeks' exams, we shall have
until school reopens again.
At last we have a tennis court
but it was only j.hro,ugh the hard
work of a number of students that
we have it and much credit Is due
them. A membership fee of 60
cents Is being charged. So far about
twenty students have joined but we
soon hope to have memberships from
the townpeople as well as those
from the high school.
Wesley Cook haB been absent
from school for the last few days.
We hope he has 'not let the warm
spring weather get the best of him.
The cafeteria closed its doors
Tuesday as It was needless to try to
keep it open owing to the fact that
it Is nearing the end of school and a
large number of students are not
attending, but nevertheless tt was a
good proposition, and we take this
opportunity to thank all those who
so kindly helped us and made it pos
sible to keep the cafeteria cpen.
The last number of the Hummer
was Issued Friday. It was much
better than previous issues. It was
extra large, on account of being tbe
Commencement number.
If you ever want to And Mr, Coch
rane between the hours of 8 : So and
3:30, and he 1b no where to be found
just look on the tennis court and he
will surely be there.
Norman Sproat was a recent visi
tor at school. We wonder why?
The following teachers have been
elected for the coming year: J. P.
McGlasson, Supt., MiSB Ellen John
son, Mrs. Florence Duhurst and D.
V. Cochrane. As yet no other va
cancies have been filled.
Mrs. Beatrice B. Beebe has accept
ed a position in the Tualatin high
school. The school joins together
in wishing her the most of success.
Miss Eloiae Barker won first
place in tte Oratorical contest hekd
at Forest Grove, at the County Field
Meet Day. We are justly proud of
her.
Friday morning a final assembly
was held for the purpose of paying
all past debts Incurred by the stu
dent body. After allowing all the
bills a report on tbe treasury was
given and we have approximately a
hundred and fifty dollars left.
After the business session was
over Mr. Nash gave us a short talk
which was followed by some rapid-
fire yells and the meeting was closed
by singing our school song, "The
Orange and Tbe Black."
The freshmen are planning a
basket social and dance In the near
future for the annual benefit. So
watch fer the time, date and place.
As the high school auditorium will
be closed, the dance and social will
be given elsewhere.
The Seniors are working very
hard to dispose of the remainder of
the annuals which have not as yet
been Bold. We have yet nearly a

Tlin following letter to the editor
from Phillip Thompson, nop of Mr.
and Mrs. G. L. Thompson o( HUla
boro, and a former student ot
Uuuverton high school, was written
aboard tli B. 8. Hears port nt placea
In the Orient, beginning April 4:
Dear friend : I am going to keep
my word and tell you o( my trip.
I'll mako this letter in three parts
Written at Shanghai, Hongkong and
Manl.
We hud a fairly nice trip over.
One ship the '"Bessie Duller " wag
very badly damaged in a storm, the
steward killed and the captain hurt
when a wave crashed Into tho sa
loon. She lout her boats and rud
der and a few other things. We
nearly lust our deckloud so we
moved south from the "Or Bat
Circle" route to the "Sunshine
ltouto," We didn't have much sun
shine though.
When we arrived In Yohohuma wa
anchored about 1 lMr miles from the
town no wu hud to go ashore In
small boatB at Mi yen per ride. It
the water was rough we paid mora.
Wo left Yohohama at 11 p. m,,
March 1. It wus my fault we didn't
leave earlier. Two others and I had
gone ashore to get something I
wanted, We were to be buck by 10
p. m. At 8:30 we tried to go back
but the sea was rough and the wind
strong. We dually got a Bam pan
and started, we got on board Hi
hours after wa started, 10:45 p. m.
Before that about 10:40, a fishing
boat narrowly missed our sampan.
Then we were nearly capalxed by the
wash from the ship's propeller as
she started off without us. We yell
ed and the ship stopped for us. We
got on board allrlght. The skipper
nuld we ought to have been left. He
would have togged us two days tor
every one gone before we rejoined
tho ship at Kobe. The fare between
the two points Is only about $3.75
gold or 7.25 yen. This letter Is go
ing to be pretty long or I should tell
more about the towns. At Kobe we
anchored 2 miles out. Four of ui
went ashore here and tried to return
at 11 o'clock. We couldn't so we
went to a hotel for the night. The
sea was to rough that It took our
