The Christian Endeavor social on the
evening of Washington's birthd iy was
held at the home ot Mr. una Mrs. J. N.
Bridges, and a large assembly of young
people participated. A delightful time
was had. Games, conversation and
speculation engaged the young people's
attention until quito a lute hour, at
which time the game of speculation
was taken on, and after settling it, all
departed for their homes, wishing that
all the Christian 'Endeavor entertain
ment a might lie held at Zed's home.
E. E. Regester has moved into the
house on the place of .1. W. Kmmel, de
ceased, known as the Jut Hill turin.
Frank Davenport's bnllgine made a

first pair of boots with red tops.
Ike Nealeigh has entirely recovered

The Endeavor society held a taffy
pulling, last Friday evening, at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Charlie CVppie,
and we understand hud a jolly time,
which was to be expected from the
well known hospitality of the host and
hostess. We are not informed how
many took tally homo in their pockets,
but we learn that several couples on
their way homo had their hands stuck
together.
The Iloosier social should have been
called the Barrett Iloosier social, as
Barrett was in evidence in all parts of
tne nouse. a. is. Uusii gave the ora
tion, E. E. Regester was secretary and
poet. George Wilson was t lie com
edian, while three-fourths of the music
was furnished by Mr. and Mrs. E. K.
Regester and A. B. Cash, and the tables
were crowded by Barrett lloosiers who
had been fasting for the past two weeks
In anticipation.
The president of the ladies' aid so
ciety has given notice that at their
next meeting, to be held Thursday,
March 3, at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
S. D. Garner, an important matter will
be brought up, and that all the ladies
can have their say on the subject. The
president did not state the length of
tne session, uut we presume It would
be as well for those who attend to take
their blankets, n sack of flour and a bug
of potatoes along, so as to tie prepared
for contingencies.
Some of our friends object to Rocky

ease having attacked her left side.
The ground hog Is still in evidence.

Miss Hazel E merson is improving in

Odell Notes
The entertainment last Friday at
Sears' hall given by the Jolly Jokers
was very creditable, but rendered to a
small audience, owing to , -weather con
ditions that could not be foretold.
The Odell school has ; light attend
ance since its opening after a closedown
of 10 days.
Otto Ehrck west to Portland last
Sunday for a few days'. viBit with his
sister, Mrs. McCoy,who resides there.
William Ehrck is somewhat indis
posed, but nothing serious is anticipated.
And still the working man is tied up
on account of inclement weather. About
the only occupation now is that of shov
eling snow and breaking roads for Bailey,
the jolly mail carrier.
Mr. Tracy and wife from Maine spent
a few days, recently, with Messrs. B. T.
and Sherman Young, Mrs. Tracy being
a sister of the Young brothers. They

The work on the.Bone ditch is neces
sarily postponed on account of weather
conditions. Just now we are long on
water.
- Rumor has it that soon another store

room to build store buildings -here, so
come along.
Mr. Kellogg, formerly of the Mount
Hood settlement, has leased the C L.
Rogers place at Willow Flat for several
years and will soon move there.
Mrs. Booth is visiting friends in The
Dalles this week.
About the only man here who is prof
iting by this stormy weather is L. M.
Wilson, who has sledded down from
Mount Hood, lumber sufficient to build
a house. It is a cold day when Wilson
gets left or words to that effect.
It does not require a prophetic finger
to point to the fact that the West
is on the eve of a wonderful tide of
prosperity, which will last, no doubt, for
several years. The result of the Russo
Japanese war, together with the Lewis
and Clark fair puts into the hands of
the farmers of the Northwest a hand,
which, if played, should prove a big
winner. The war conditions have stim
ulated, prices and with the probability
of Russia's inability to export wheat,
the result is an easy problem to figure
out.
What's the matter with the Roosevelt
club organized seven weeks ago? Why
not have a rousing . meeting? Al
most every day a crowd gathers at
the Lit tle White Store-to await the
coming of the mail, and politics and war
111 the far lMiet are trie absorbing topics.
Roosevelt, as chief of the nation's affairs,
is prominent. The fact is, I haven't
heard a Bingle man, regardless of poli
tical faith, that opposes his candidacy.
There are no trusts here. Roosevelt is
surely and easily the people's candidate.
Frank Neff has a beautiful collection
of stereoscopic views on display at the
Little White Store. The views are lo
cal, all being scenes along the wild,
rushing waters of Hood river, west of
Odell.
James Eggert informs me that a friend
of his in Kansas, haviug recently sold
out his farm there, is only waiting the
time when lie can secure a house to
move his family into here, aud he will
Hart for Hood River.
Mr.HollowelLwho lives at Eggermont,
is also looking for friends from Indiana
in early spring, i here is room and op
portunity for many more enterprising
people in the famous valley of Hood
River, and while as a rule, it is unsafe
to advise friends concerning a location
for investment and a home, Hood River
stands in thu front rank as an exception.
And the longer tiie matter is deferred,
the greater will be the cost of a home
site.

The register and receiver of the local
land office and the special agentassigned

land office" o make a change in the
