Patrons and Friends of the Hood River Public School: As a represent ative of the class of 191)3, of the gram mar school, district No. 3, I extend to you a most cordial and hearty wel come. I am sure the class is very much pleased to see that so many are enough interested In our school and school work, the teachers and our class, as to be present on this occasion. When we entered upon our school work, about eight years ago, we were first tatmhi our A, B, C's, how to form and use them, how to spell, add and s out rai t ; and then came multiplication, division, long division and fractions, and our first work In grammar. But it seemed then that the teachers could not impress upon our minds the great value these things would be in the higher grades of school. Then was the time we saw no enjoyment In school work, anrl our greatest ambition was to see if there wasn't some way to gel out of studying. We thought the teachers seemed aw ful cross; and sometimes we would not study as we should, or tried some way to get out of work; then the teachers would tell us what an Interest they took in our work, and how anxious they weie for us to get along well, and ki tliul ntir school ilavs would I our happiest. But we could not see it that way; we thought they were doing ail iliev mold aimliist us. But, as we stepped higher and higher, we saw what thev had said was true, aud I suppose there is plenty of time yet to niui tins out. Thp state course of study of Oregon lavs down a lurite amount of work based uiwm a school term of nine or ten mouths. Hut as Hood Kiverschonl has only eight months lo accomplish this work it makes it bard on lis. and I am sure it makes it very hard on the ' teachers, for at the beginning of the term, or rather all during Hie term un til little w hile before examinations. we are not ant to studv as hard as we should. We seem to think there is pleiitvot time vet. and no one seems o know or see as the teacher d-Mhat MT. Band Sawed Lumber, Red Cedar Shingles, Flooring, Ceiling, Rustic, Ship Lap, Pickets, Laths, etc., etc. ESTIMATES FURNISHED the day is coming, and coming fast, when we are to be "measured up," to see if we did study as we should. Our lessons sometimes seem hard, or we don't feel like studying. The teacher keeps pressing us just the same. He seems the only one who sees that day which is not very far away. But 1 think our year's work has been very profitable, taking into consideration the time iu which we had to do it. Our class motto is "Onward and Up ward." It is, I believe, the first motto that any member of our class has had. And we hope that when we are old we may be able to look back over our lives and see that we have kept our first motto true. It is a good motto to carry through life. It may seem hard some times to keep up to it, but if we stay close by it we will succeed. We may have often been negligent and apparently unkind to our teacher during the year, and have forced many trials upon him which he has borne with great kindness and patience, but I am sure we meant no barm and have the highest regard for him. Our mistakes are apparent. Kindly bear with us, as our year's work has been crowded Into eight months, and besides, like yourselves, we are not above making mistakes. Again I say, dear friends, that we renew our words of welcome, and thank you for your presence here tonight. VALEDICTORY BY PEARL BRADLEY. Friends and schoolmates: The time has arrived for us to separate, but be fore doing so possibly a few words from one chosen by the graduating class to speak for them, as also for the school, may not be amiss. To the gentlemen of the school board we wish to extend our thanks for your untiring efforts in our behalf, for the kindly encourage ment you have givenand the faithful and efficient teachers provided to give us in struction. We appreciate and are gratelui for all the kindly considerations had at vourhands. To our teachers we desire' to extend our tiianks in a particular man ner for their earnest and kindly help at all times. Doubtless at many times the task has been wearying and burdensome, and your patience sorely tried, but through all you have shown by your actions and kindly words that you had our welfare at heart, and for this also we thank von. We believe at this time that mil but the friendliest feeling and best wishes are felt by every one of the school for each of our instructors, and we are sure that no ill feeling is har bored by teacher or scholar. To our parents and the patrons of the school we woulJ say that we appreciate very much the interest you have shown in the school ; by your visits to the school ; by your words ot cheer ana encourage ment and by your attendance at the en tertainments that have been given for the benefit of the school. The result of such consideration and help from you has done much toward making the term just closed the successful one it has been. The Dooks, too, wiai nave own proviuwi through these entertainments will like wise be of benefit and pleasure to those who will follow in the school during the coming terms. To the pupils that follow as we would offer a word of encouragement. In the years Jthat are to come you will doubt' less find frequent occasions when diffi culties appear that seem almost (insur mountable, but earnest effort and close application is bound to win, and to the one mho says: "Never give op," there is no such word as fail. Place yonr standard high.let "On ward and upward be your motto, and the years as tbev com to you will be found replete with sue ceM. and the goal to which too as pire will surely bp reached. The places we now have attained will soon be yours. So study and so work that when you shall have come to the closing hours of your public school days you can look back and feel that your best efforts have beeu given and your success honorably won. And now, just one word and we have done The pleasant days we have spent together are gone forever ; our school term is past and the future is a closed book to us all. Let our every ac tion be such as we shall be glad to see unfold as Ihs new pages are opened in the time to come by those who shall fol low us. Live each day so that some other life than ours may be brighter, that pleasure and profit may follow all those with whom we come in contact, and that the pleasures we have shared, in the past be not marred by anything that may appear in the future. And now, as we say farewell, let us repeat our thankfulness and gratitude to all, and extend our best wishes for the fu ture success and welfare of every one. Farewell. ' GRADUATES AT FRANKTON.

No one appears better satisfied with business conditions in Hood River than Frank A. Cram, proprietor of the Up-to-date dry goods ana clothing emporium on Oak street. Mr. Cram feels jubilant, and well he may. During the past 14 months his store stock has turned over five times. This is a record which speaks much for Mr. Cram as a suc cessful business man, while at the same time it eoes to show the prosperous con dition of the Hoc4 River people. Mr. Cram reports that last Saturday his re ceipts exceeded those for July 3d last year. And what is better yet, the sales on the Saturday before Easter exceeded by 1 100 the business done on the day preceding 4th of July last. During the month of March last business was 2 timet better than the same month last year, while during February Mr. Cram did three times as much business as at the same time 12 months ago. And all this business is strictly caeh. 8. Uillfillan of Seattle will be here May 1, to take charge of the shoe de partment in cYam's ttore.
