tIrs. M. E. Lester, who has been
" away for several weeks, is expected
to return the last of this month. The
observer hears many inquiries con
cerning the time of her re.turn.
A goodly number of Irrigon people
have been away for nearly two weeks
in the Blue Mountains' gathering
Huckleberries. Most of them have re
turned and report successful harvest,
and a good outing.
There is current, information to
the effect that some of our young
people are getting very much dissat
isfied with the life they are now liv
ing, and we may have to 'report a
wedding or two in the not very dis
tant future.
' Mr. Seaman sold more than, $150
th nf nntutnoa frnm nn npra r?
vjflund. Potatoes at present prices
look to the uyers of the tubers like
a very profitable crop. Such returns
help materially in paying for the land
and make the buyer feel that he has
bought something worth while.
The office property so long occu
pied by Mr. Walpole has been sold
to Mr. Geo. E. Hendrick, and is being
fitted up for his occupancy. Mr
Hendrick, we understand, is interest
ed in the promotion of musical enter
prises, and thinks it may be possible
to organize- a brass band here. Mr.
Walpole has moved into a building
on the south side of the highway
where ue will attend to business as
usual.
The bonds of the Irrigon school
district in the sum of $40,000 flave
been Eold for the purpose of erecting
a new school building better suited
to the present purposes of the school.
The present building is already too
mail to accommodate properly the
aigu scnool work in connection with
the grade school work, and as new
people coming into the district the
necessity for a new building increases
with the flow of time. Plans and
specifications are well along and it
is hoped that a suitable contract for
the erection of the building may soon
be ready for announcement. Every
improvement of tliis kind not only
makes the place more desireable for
the home maker, but indicates the
growth of the community and be
comes an asset to the county as a
whole.
Irrigon school will open its doors
for the school year 1920-21 on the
first Monday in September. That
being Labor Day, the enrollment will
be taken, and preliminaries arranged
for active work on Tuesday, and then
a recess will be taken until Tuesday
morning. In the evening, a reception
is to be had for the purpose of af
fording our people an opportunity to
meet the new teachers, and to intro
duce the teachers to the parents,
thus bringing these two school forces
into as close relationship as possible.
Announcement of program is promis
ed for a future number of this paper.
Mrs. W. K. Cochran and daughter
Grsicie left Tuesday for Pendleton.
Mrs. Cochran expects to buy proper
ty there and move in a short time.
MEN AWARDED GODLIKE FANK
Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Bryson and Mr.
and Mrs. Mayne .Moore left Saturday
evening for the Blue mountains
where they will enjoy a few days out
ing and gather Iluckleberrv.
Two Worshiped in China and Elabo
rate Temples Erected at the
Eirthplace of One.
Dave Dixon of Hood River visited
a few days last week with relatives
and left Wednesday for Freewater,
where he will visit for a short time
with his daughter Mrs. Lowell
Akers.
During the early part of the year;
1920, we heard many expressions of
a wish for a regular preacher. Sub
script ions were made to a fund for
the support of a part time service,
and a very acceptable man was se
cured, so now we have preaching ser
vice every Sunday evening. The bible
school was- recently reorganized and
the Constitution re-written, and mod
ernized. The principal attendance
at the Sabbath school is children and
young people. Our adult population
seem to be too fully occupied with
the home projects, field and irriga
tion to be able to attend as fully
as they otherwise would the services
of the church. However, the church
is here, and we think it is here to
stay.

Sharing Your Books.
The world is full of shut-ins. and
there are those who nre starving for
books and papers,' but how tunny of
us make any effort to search them
out?
A clever article on books which I
lately read annoyed me by explain
ing how stupid Is the custom of bor
rowing books, and how vastly mote
desirable It Is for each man to own
his own. I decided that the writer
was n rich man (although my better
judgment should tell mo that writers
seldom nre rich), and I decided also
that he was missing a hit of good
things If he neither lends nor borrows
books. 1 believe that n book Is about
the pleasnntest thing there Is to share.
It produces such a bond of sympathy
If It Is enjoyed by n friend, and It
provides at once something worth
while to talk about.
And people do return bonks, espe
cially If you put your name and
"please return" Inside and remember
where your books are visiting. LII11
