The Camp Fire Girls at Moro have
begun their active fall work with re
newed interest. At a ceremonial
meeting held at the Larson farm
home Saturday evening, Octobed 16,
the Tewose camp enlarged its mem
bership by initiating and welcoming
13 new girl members. Seven slightly
more matured members were promo
ted to the rank of wood gatherers
and received honor beads. These
were Pauline and Evelyn Buell,
Laura Ruggles, Josephine Johnson,
Leora Peetz, Lois Bryant and Viola
Hansen. A new feature this year is
the division of the girls into two
classes, one for those of grammar
school age and another for those of
high school* age or over. By this
method the work is made more con
genial for all concerned.
A second meeting was held Thurs
day evening, the usual meeting night,
and following officers elected: Alta
Belshee, president; Cecil Cothran,
vice president; Emmajean Stephens,
committee
secretary-treasurer.
consisting of Emmajean Stephens,
Pauline Buell and Cecil Cothran was
appointed by the president to select
a play to be given in the near future.
A second committee* Gertrude Eakins,
Marie Belshee and Evelyn Buell, was
appointed by the president to select
a suitable tune fof a campfire song.
This committee is to report results at
the next meeting, when 4 decision
will be made by the camp as a whole,

TRADE OPPORTUNITY
If you want to trade your wheat
ranch, don’t pass up my beautiful
farm which joins the town of Dallas,
Oregon. I want a real wheat ranch,
2000 acres or over. Nothing north
of the base line. Full particulars at
my office. M. Fitsmaurice,Condon,
Oregon.
If one PLAYS at livestock raising or farming,
he PAYS. If he makes a business of it, he PROS
PERS. And it is a business that requires hard
work and deep study. Starting the herd, build
ing it up and cashing in on it cannot succeed un-
der guesswork.
Yet, livestock raising will go a long way in this
community toward solving the farmer’s econom
ic problems. Furthermore, the FARMERS ^ST ATE
BANK is only too jlad to lend a helping hand *
along business-like lines. -
It is fortunate that the farmers in this vicinity have the opportus
to visit and profit from the Pacific International Livestock Exp<
tion in Portland. This year, October 80 to November 6, it is said
exhibits will outrival any previous livestock show in all America.
