Saturday, September 26, was Miss
Nellie Garrabrant's 12th birthday. She
invited a number of her little friends to
help her celebrate the occasion at her
home. They spent the day in playing
games and exercising on the trapeze.
They also did amplejustice to the nicest
dinner that money and good cooks could
prepare, and in the evening returned to
their homes too full for utterance, and
wishing that Miss Nellie might enjoy a
centennial of such happy birthdays.
Those present were:Misses Alta and' Iva
Anderson, Mae McVay, Effle Boorinan,
Nina and Emma Noble, Uracie Forbes,
Florence Byerlee,. Nellie Garrabrant.

At Canby Post meeting, Saturday, a
move was made towards getting up an
entertainment for the benefit of the
Hood Kiver band. A committee was
appointed to act with a like committee
from the relief corps to enlist the aid of
the citizens of the town in this worthy
object. Captain Shaw read a play he
had written some years ago, entitled the
'Awkward Squad," which if it could be
put on the boards by the local theatrical
talent would make a great hit. The
band boys are deserving of aid. Let all
hands pull together and give them a
benefit.

two dozen of his best melons that were
not yet ripe.
