    Spring Festival
Colorful Pageant
Standing room only signs could
well have been hung out at the
high school gymnasium Friday eve
ning when interested school pat
rons assembled to enjoy the annual
spring festival. Children and teach
ers had worked faithfully for weeks
to bring the production up to par.
The band, choruses, dancers and
a few grade schoolers with speak
ing parts put the. fairy story "Over
the Rainbow" across.
Bobby Jones was the umbrella'
man, Rieta Graves and Marion
Green were school children who
wished to be in fairy land. Their
wish was granted and there they
saw many strange sights. Ferdinand
the bull enjoyed the enchanted
land and frisked about in a light
hearted manner. Supporting cast
for Ferdy was Gerald Bergstrom
and Carl Thorpe. Industious little
Mrs. Whistler was so busy fortify
ing herself against a severe winter
she had little time to enjoy her
pleasant surroundings. Nancy Ad
ams was this frugal little squirrel.
Many active sprites and elves, so
attractively costumed pleased the
audience and the bunny rabbits
were a joy.
The stage decorations were lav
ish and presented an attractive pic
ture. Much time, thought and en
ergy had been spent upon this de
tail and added very much to the
success of the production. Mrs. Ev
eret Smith and the upper grade
art classes were responsible for the
crepe paper rainbow and other
stage properties.
The various musical contribu
tions, for the most part, of a popu
lar nature, were offered by Everett
Smith, upper grade chorus and
band; primary chorus, Mrs. Ro
mine and high school girls chorus
Miss Hoosier. Mrs. Romine and Miss
Hoosier were accompanists while
Miss Hajenga, Mrs. Romine and
Mrs. Smith directed the dances.

says William B. Cone of Bend, Oregon
."It was an important step forward for the
people who live in central Oregon when
Pacific Power & Light came here. We need
PP&L's resources, technical knowledge and
experience to get the right kind of elec
tric , service, so essential to growing areas
like this.
"PP&L has increased our power re
sources, improved our electric service and
brought down the price of electricity. A
good electric service company never stands
still it's always growing' and improving
and that's what I particularly like about
PP&L. Those fellows are always out in
front with the latest in electrical progress.
"We've gokjust about everything elec
trical in our home, and PP&L has made
electricity our cheapest servant."

1930
William B. Cone, electrical supervisor of the Shevlin
Hixon pine mills of Bend, Oregon, came west from
Minnesota in 1910 and started to work for the Allis
Chalmers Company in the electrification of lumber plants
in the Pacific Northwest. During the ensuing years, while
following the practical work, Mr. Cone also continued
his studies of the technical end of electrical engineering.
In 1915 he came to Bend to work on the electrification,
of the Shevlin-Hixon mill, continued to work there as
an electricia'n, and in 1917 was appointed electrical super
visor. Mr. Cone is responsible for the maintenance and
operation of 750 electric motors, ranging in size from
J4 h.p. to the big 250 h.p. motors that operate the band
saws in the mill. He also has charge of more than a
hundred miles of electrical circuits supplying lighting
and signal control and fire alarm systems.
Ingenious and inventive, Mr. Cone has designed and
put into operation three separate electric services for the
Shevlin mill, and has at times designed electrical mill
equipment ahead of manufacturers. One of his latest
inventions is an electrically-driven bicycle, powered by
an auto storage battery and an electric starter from a
car a device used to get him through the 1 miles of
mill yard with no waste of time.
