Peace la desirable. But let us have
jeaee with progress; peace with school
development; peace with honorable
dealing. Not the peace that knows no
development, that contents Itseit with
grunting its satisfaction in presence of
educational stagnation a six-months
school in an uncomfortable wind-
shaken shack. If that is peace, from
such a peace good Lord deliver us and
our children.

Barrett District.
What's the matter with the climate
of Hood River? Seems as if a revolu
tion or a cyclone had struck it. When
we first heard of this valley the old set
tler informed us that there were no
strong winds in this section, but the
day we arrived was something verv,
very unusual, for it was all we could do
to hold ourselves in the wagon that
brought us out. We felt like taking the
back track, but alter we got out under
the sheltering oaks and pines of Barrett
the wind apearcd to subside and we
concluded that perhaps it was an unu
sual day, and ou further inquiry we
were iniormeJ that while the wind did
blow some in the Bpring, that after June
1, there would be no more zephyrs un
til the spring of l!KU. Now, Mr.Editor,
we have come to the conclusion that the
old settler is one of the most stupendous
f i auds that was ever in vented, and 1 firm
ly believe that most of those w ho were so
unfortunately located as to be in the
range of the storm of last week will fully
agree with me. We write this for the
purpose of drawing the attention of new
settlers to the Barrett section Situated ,
w ithin a few miles of other parts
of Waco county, where numer-,
ous orchards were considerably dau.-j
aged, and one man said his berries were
even blow n out, Barrett district is w j
providentially situated as to becomple e- i
y protected from storms by its proxim-j
ity to the range of hills west of town
and the grand grow th of oaks and pines
that border the north and west sides,
passed serenely through the storm, said
to be the worst ever seen here, without
even the breaking of a tree and but few
branches damaged. Moral : if you would
care to live in a section where all the
blessings of life seem to be conferred
upon its citizens, come to Barrett dis
trict.
School is progressing finely and even
the "bad boys" seem to be perfectly
satished. One ot the instructors, how'
ever, is somewhat worried about a cou
pie of the aforesaid bad boys, whom he
kept in after school laBt Friday for cor
rcction, but who, while the teacher was
engaged in making an appointment (?)
disappeared, and the only evidence left
behind was au open window, and a
couple of shadows across the school
house yard. We would suggest a few
sash locks and some strong tree branch
es. J. P. Barnett met with a severe acci
dent last week while hitching up bis
team. He slipped and fell under one of
his horses, which, becoming frightened,
attempted to get away. Sir. Barnett,
not being able to extricate himself, was
stamped by the horse on the head, arms
and lega.hrs head being cut very severe
ly, so as to require the taking of several
stitches by Dr. Brosius, who at
tended him. We understand that
while painful, his injuries are not
dangerous, but that it will compel his
remaining quiet for a few days. Mr.
Burnett's many friends congratulate
him on hie narrow escape.
Two strangers were traversing this
section through all the mud and rain
ldfct Saturday looking for a location. They
teemed to know jut-t what suited them
and we understand secured what they
wanted.
The Valley Christian church having
secured the services of Rev. A. A. Beery
as pastor, have arranged for a series of
meetings at the church, beginning on
Thanksgiving day, November 2ti, at 10:30
a. in. and 7 p. m., and every evening
thereafter until further notice. It was
the intention to have begun this service
some four weeks ago, but the smallpox
rumors caused-the postponement. As
this meeting is intended to encourage
the betterment of all mankind, subjects
will be introduced and discussed at each
service that w ill be entertaining in the
highest degree. The pastor is one of
the most effective speakers and presents
his subjects in an entirely different man
ner from most ministers, and all who
attend will be greatly entertained and
we trust benefited. All are cordially
invited and we hope to be able to note
the presence nightly of some Hood Riv
el ites. It won't hurt you, brothers, and
may do you a world of good. Come and be
welcomed.
Bernie Phelps has decided that there
is no place like home, even if he has to
split the wood, and has returned and is
now chopping mince meat for ma. He
still nurses bis hand, but says it is do
ing nicely and hopes soon to be able to
perform a full day's work.
Wouldn't it be a good idea if the road
supervisor on the Belmont and Method
ist lane roads would take account of
stock. We think he would find an over
plus of goods that a little exertion would
or could soon dispense with. Try it.
We again urge theVpeople of Barrett
to send us items of news, anything in
terestingbirths, deaths, marriages,
any arriving or departing relatives or
friends, crop items, new houseB, barns,
etc. Let us let the world know we live,
and we can surely do it if we advertise
in the Glacier. Box at the store. Drop
in your news.
Mr. Emerson is building himself a
fine apple house. We hope it will keep
the fruit all right until spring, then we
would be perfectly willing to relieve
him of any further responsibility.

Professor C. H. Cromwell went over
to visit l)is home on the Washington
side last Friday evening, and report
less snow there than here. Oregon is
always ahead.
Professor Cromwell has some amusing
experiences with the pupils of the pri
mary grade. One of the lada was sent
up U Mr. Cromwell last week for pun
ishment. His offense was using bad
language. The prufessor told the urchin
of another boy who was addicted to the
use of improper language and asked
what punishment should be meted out
to that lxy, thinking to catch the lad
in his answer. The little fellow was too
shrewd, however, and replied; "I would
give him nine trials before 1 punished
him." As the lad being interviewed
had been up on the carpet but twice
this term he was hedging safely. Th
professor returned to the attack and in
sisted that the culprit must break him
self of using forbidden language and

into the professor's face and said proud

the little offender was dismissed with an
admonition not to repeat the offense.

The beautiful slushy snow is delight
ful this morning, but when we consider
the charming October davs that we en'
joyed we have no kick coming. Winter
has its advantages, bringing rest to
those who are com forts bly situated, and
then the bulling and nnfolding of
spring breathes a benediction over the
desolate and waste places of winter. To
those of us who are fast approaching the
winter of life there is a lesson in the
changing seasons. To all such the ap
proach of spring brings with it bow
of promise of brighter and better days.

Many honieeteadors have recently
passed Odell on their semi-annual visit
to their mountain homes. A party of
these startled a band of deer on the
hills southwest of Odell last week, but
failed to land any of them.
Mr. Davis, who has a homestead near
the sarves patch on the hill southeast of
here, passed Odell, yesterday, with a
load of potatoes. lie has succeeded in
raising a good garden, oats, etc., and
will, no doubt, in time have the fine red
apple there. :
Very little vacant land is left now,
and the future of this valley and the
surrounding hills will astonish the most
sanguine. The fellow without a home
now, with all the passing opportunities,
will surely have cause to regret it in a
few years.
There will be some changes in the
business of the Little White Store soon.
Look out for announcement next week.
Business continues good and with in
creasing demands athe business will
be enlarged with improvements this
year. The facilities for handling goods
are adequate for any demands that may
come.
