We have ofttimes wondered Bince we settled in Hood River valley, why a sec tion of country that teems to have been settled by a class of people endowed with an unusual amount of intelligence and blessed with all the advantages to be derived from church, school and so cial privileges that can be obtained even in the cities, and possessing one of the most beautiful and fertile tracts of Ood's earth, capable of producing in an abun dance any and all kinds of cereals, fruits and vegetables, in the raising of which the most modem methods and applian ces are used, which of itself is evidence of the intelligence of the people ;and the fact that there are over 200 school child ren in this district give positiveevidence that the doctrine of President Kooee velt prevails in this section in an un usual degree; and my wonder has been why such a settlement, possessing nil these advantages, is without representa tion on the correspondence force of the Glacier. The only excuse I can think of is that the activity of the soil does not give the farmers any time to devole to the heralding of the most favon d spot in the Hood River valley. But believing that even the most favored spots should, even at a sacrifice of time, make public their advantages, we take up the cudgel on behalf of this section, confessing, however, our inability to do (lie subject justice, unless the people of the community aid us by giving us the news and latest happenings in their im mediate neighborhood. Receiving sui h support we will endeavor to make the Glaeier a weekly report of the happen ings of this community, and while e ask the aid of our neighbors in prepar ing these reports, we desire first to say that we do not propose to accept person alities, family, or neighborhood differ ences,as news items. .' We believe that in the arduous task of presenting 113 good a paper as the Olacier.once a week, the editors find troubles enough of their' own without airing the personal or neighborhood quarrels. We have not learned that any such troubles exist in this section and trust that all future time will find a perpetuation of the present peace and contentment; but we want to state our policy, and then no one can complain if their items of news are rejected, (jive us the news and let ns jointly make the happenings of this locality clean, readable news items, that will be a help to the Glacier editor and interesting to the public. Barrett school opened for a seven months' term September 7,with Profes sor C I). Thompson, late principal of Hood River school, in control, and A. B. Cash and Miss O. Norman, assistants. There wai a large attendance of child ren, and a lady passing as school was dismissed, remarked that there mnt-t have been a circus somewhere, there were so many kids on the road. j A. B. Cash spent the first two days of school in getting tlie Hug pole 111 posi tion so that Old Glory may be unfurled and serve as a patriotic inspiration to the growing generation. Rev.J. W. Jenkins, pastor of the Val ley Christain church, who lias been en joying vacation returned Friday and resumed services Sunday morning, preaching an unusually interesting ser mon. Raleigh Phelps, who is serving Uncle Sam as ranger, protecting the woods from the inroads of stockmen and in preventing the spread of forest fires, was made happy by a visit from his wife and babies at his camp, but the weather having turned cold and rainy, he was compelled to bring them home. He returned Monday morning with in structions to move his camp around to the east side of Mount Hood. The ladies' aid society of the Vallev Christian cfjureh, overcome bv the ard dous task at their last meeting, of en deavoring to persuade one of their mem bers to work, in which they did not uc ceed, concluded thay were entitled to day'e rest, po last Thursday they took Hello!

They all report having enjoyed a lovely time, even the refractory member. K. B. They did not see any rattlesnakes. The new store started by Mr. Bray ford, a quurter-milo west of the school house, is succeeding much better than was expected. The proprietor is an old hand at the business and knows how to cater to the country trade, and carrying with him at all times a full stock of squareness and politeness and fair deal ing, backed up by a stock of goods not equalled by any store in Hood River, he should be, and no doubt will be, well supported by the appreciative public of this community. The fruit of this vicinity has about nil been harvested, except apples, of which there is a goodly quantity, and by intelligent culture is of tine quality. Several have refused 1(1.75 per box, and all demand Unit they are entitled to the highest market price. T. 1). Tweedy, w hose feet, he says went on a strike, is now fur on the road to recovery. S. A. Skinner, who vWteil at San Fruncifco with the G. A. R., has re turned, and is so lull of the honpitalities tendered them by. .the citizens of the Gate Gity, that he spends half his time out on the fence talking about w hat a lii-u time he had, and what a grand thing it is to have been one of the na tion's defenders in her serious time of need. Washington state, admitting Oregon's superiority in educational matters, has drawn from this community P. H. Sparks, to serve as principal of the White Salmon school, and their dis cernment is creditable to them, as he is one of tlie most popular teachers w her ever he has been engaged, and will give them perfect satisfaction. We learn that Rev. Uillenger, w ho has been serving us pastor of the M. E. church at Belmont, lias been transferred to some other charge. We are sorry to See him go, as he lias been an earnest worker in behalf of the church, and his family a pleasant addition to the society of the community. We wish them much success and congratulate the people of his new charge in securing his services. Now, in concluding this communica tion,we earnestly ask the assistance of all the people of this section who desire the public to know of the advantages of the Barrett district,' and ask that all items be left at the new store, where a box will be provided for thuir reception. All communications, however, must be signed by the writers, not for publica tion, but that the responsibility of the item may be furnished to the editor of the Glacier should he demand it.
