0 o HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, AUGUST 25, 1904. i I- ! r i I ; I ! 1 i - n i . - CORRESPONDENCE. ODELL. By direction of the school directors, Professor Willis took charge of the work of renovating the school house, and be has had It thoroughly cleaned. The floors and wainscoting nave been oiled, and it presents a different ap pearance than formerly. In addition to this work the directors have tiled the basement and very much Improved the sanitary condition of things about the premises. The school house and grounds will be in fine condition upon the opening of school, and with the increase of salary paid to the teachers, Udell should rank first class In school work the coming year. It is hardly possible to get something for nothing, and poorly paid teachers can not afford to put up as good work as when their salary is in the top notch. The pres ent management of tbe affairs of the school district Is worthy of special comment, and will tell upon the work of tbe school. Last week the trustees of the Order of Lions titled up their hall, recently leased, and bad a pleasant meeting Saturday evening, taking iu two new members. Tbeir membership now numbers 40, with new applications coining In. Two weeks from last Sat urdav, and on the regular meeting night, a musical and literary program will be rendered, after wntcn sunpei will be served. The work of this order, so recently organized, shows what can be acoompllfhed by united effort on the nart ofthe community. Ode 1 1 is bat forvinir to the front: and right now the I bin a moHt needed Is a flrst-cluss hall that will furnish a home for lodges, literary societies and publio meetings. Tbe ball lust fitted up Is comfortable, but smaller than Is desired for some meetings. Who will start the pro ject and incorporate for that purpose? Jollv John K. Hotterta Is up from Portland for a three weeks' visit, and last week Joined a party spending a week at Lost Lake. The big party that went to Lost lake about two weeks ago returned last Sat urday, and reDorted the trio of their lives. MIhs lllaiiche Wilson loined the party about a week ago, and at the same time Miss Roberta of Portland returned home, her vacation term hav- Ine expired. There were three eiocu tionlsts In tbe party, besides all kinds of musicians, high divers and cheerful fish storv tellers. I have their word for It that they killed bear, that Is with the aid of Dud Odell, one of the famous hunters of Odell. There wore several real estate transfers on tbe way home. The chaneroiie, Harry Kemp, distinguished himself, and no doubt bis services next season will be much ought after. Mrs. II. 8. Lewis and children from Portland are now in camp at Maple JJull. Airs, ecniiieraiiu family, a. . Schiller, Will Bears, and Jack Kitznat rick are also camping at some point up the raging river that flows from Mount llood. Mr. Wygant and family, Mr. Noble and family, Mr. Lamb and family and the two Shoemaker boys passed Odell hmt Sunday on their way to the hike. " The pleasure of a mountain trip Is a luxury these smoky, sultry days espec ially from a wood hauler's point of view. Last week the Little White store people purchased a Missouri legal ten der. These mules don't say much, but tbe junior member of tbe firm says they can move anything that is loose at both ends. Last Saturday tbe genial editor of the Gluoler honored us with a cull. Mr. Moe Is out on the annual news gathering tour through the valley, gleaning Items and noting the rapid development of the lest little valley in the North. The Olacler man is making a bouse to house canvass, and the result of such work will be fur reaching In Its efl'ect toward the adver tising and upbuilding of our beautiful and fertile valley. Many additional prosperous homes will soon be built now that water Is plentiful for irriga tion purposes. Hood Kiver valley Is capable of taking care of ten times the population It now contains, and not many years hence will this prophecy be fulfilled. East Hood Ulver valley presents many attractions to the home seeker. Its pure, spring wnter, its deep rioh soil, and tta comparative freedom from heavy winds, together with its acenic effects, round up a picture that will prove a winuer to all such as are seeking a quiet, restful home. We gladly welcome any move on the part of the Olacler or from any other source tnat is prompted by a motive to unlet- the present condition of affulrs. Come again, Mr, Olacler, and come ou a hot day. Mr. Uillstrom Is demonstrating the fucttbatdalrvina will pay, and with the increased acreage of clover it will continue to pay. lie Is marketing 20 to za rolls or clioice butter a week Inside of 20 days the Little White Store has handled 80 pounds, paying ou cents per roil, casn, or oo cents in trade. This butler Is far ahead in quality of any creamery butter on the market. Until recently we have been shipping In creamery butler, but now we have a better grade made at home. There should not be a pound of butter hipped in, and there should be reform long the meat line. Get some pigs nd dedicate your cull apples and part or your ciover ileitis to tnem, ana smoke your own bacon and cut out some of the retailer's profit, thus keep ing the money at borne. Clare Crockett, who waa a prominent member of the Loal lake party, left Sunday afternoon for the eastern part of the county, where lie la spending tbe summer. Clare is alwaya welcome at Odell, for he buys bon bons for bis mother same as he does for his best girl. The young man who Is not uiv nil ndiiii or nis nintner, will never go very far wrong. Owen Davis, who for some time has been at Moro, Sherman county, re turned last Wednesday. He reports quite a decline In tbe price or borses. with no demand for harvest teams from ' this section. William Khick last week put in new flume to carry water to the ram that forces the water to his house from Odell creek. He put in a 10-iuch flume in very substantial manner, that win furnish all the water he wants, and last a life-time. Frank Stanton or 1'ine t J rove was over last Sunday exercising his fine bay team, and showing a friend our slue of the valley. Frank is a progres sive fruit grower, and never fulls to take a chauoe on the future of the val ley by any Investment that promises wen. Recent developments along the line of Irrigation point to tbe fact that water is a necessity if the. valley reach es the state of development that It ahould. When land owners say In a fiublio meeting, as they did at Barrett aat Mouday, that they would be will ling to bond their laud and have an assessment of $20 per acre levied upon tbe same, it Is about the most convinc ing argument in favor of irrigation that could Ite produced. When men back tbeir judgment with money something will soon lie done. We commend the Jtarrett people ror tne spirit of enterprise manifest at their meeting, and expect to hear further r ror n it. Mr. Neff reports the condition of Grandpa III vera about the suine. Not much can be done for him except the tender care he is receiving at the home of Frank Neff'. It Is all off with the hay balers now. They will start up ngiiin lit a short time and linish baling the late second crop of clover and a few tons of straw.

Bert Van Horn, who has been look ing after his interests here for the last two weeks, intends returning to his home in New York in a few days. Frank lioardinan. who is suffering with a severe case of typhoid fever, was taken fo Ht. Vincent's hospital where lie could receive the best of care. At the last report Frank was feeling a trifle better, but it will be some time before he will be out of danger. All of our East Side orchardists re port their orchards very free from the the ravages of the little pest called the (VI 1 in moth. Whether this blessing is e to a thorough and systematic meth od of spraying for the last few years, or whether we have this year used a purer quality of arsenic, we are not able to say, but having experienced Just the kind of a summer, during which the moth is supposed to flourish, we must attribute the absence of the "little dev il" to either one cause or the other. Mrs. G. D. Board man is in Portland, so as to be near ber son Frank, in case of an alarming change in his condition. Our Catholic friends were honored lust Sunday by the presence of Bishop O'Rileyof Portland.

We understand that the country around Lost lake Is on Are, and no ranger stationed there. This is a great mistake, because there are always some careless campers among so many. One of our young men living In the upper part of the valley In cougardom, met with a serious accident last week. He came nut with a broken collar bone and a skinned ear.
