District No. 16. created last year from the upper end of the Mount Hood dis trict, has a new school house built by the people of the community. As most of the land in the community is as yet sparsely settled and improvements are few, but little money can be raised by taxation, and there was no building fund at hand, so the patrons of the school donated their own time to put up the school house. The people of this district may live far oat in the woods, but they propose to have all the advan tages of civilization. Miss Carrie Byrlee, teacher of the Co lumbia school in the Frank ton district, received notification last week from Superintendent Ackerman that she was successful in the examination for a state certificate. Miss Byrlee took the exami nation in the 18 branches in three days at The Dalles last month, besides doing the work for a county certificate. Ap plicants for state certificates usually take advantage of the fact that they are allowed to take only third of the branches at one time, thus taking a year or more to the entire list Her general average was something over 92 per cent. Miss Byrlee is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. N. Byrlee, and was graduated last June' with high honors from the Oregon Agricultural college at Corvallis. John Groff aud others in the upper Mount Hood settlement have erected a United Brethren church near the ranch of Jim Rees. The work was all done with no outside aid and stands, as a credit to the community. Services are held occasionally by a missionary of the church who covers the outlying par ishes of the district. The gentle Chinook up the river last Thursday was laden with an abundance of smoke, the pleasant odor of burning fir and pine, and Sherman Young. Sherman didn't make much smoke, but he was burning, fust the same, with a desire to get back to Hood River where the people are alive and wide awake. He says the country ho has visited siuce he left Hood Kiver is wrapped in a Rip Van Winkle sleep from which nothing short of an earthquake or a blast of Gabriel's trumpet will probably ever wake them, almost as sleepy as even The Dalles so drowBy that water will not run down hill. Sherman was glad to get back home, and proposes to take off his cutaway, expectorate on his hands, put his shoulder "mit dor veel of brogress," and do his share toward keeping Hood River where Bhe is today, leading the very front ranks of the live communities of the best state in the Union.

Misses Jane and Emma Coates were out at the Oakdale ranch Sunday and helped to punish the jack rabbits Dr. Laraway generously donated the propri etor for hiB Sunday dinner. Their sister, Mrs. E. D.

Returning, Miss Clara sidestepped to Heaside and took her first look at "Old Ocean's gray and melancholy waste," off of paper, aud declares it the biggest overgrown old goose pond she ever wad ed in and thinks If it has so much water in it during a dry season like this, that it must be a whopper at the end of a rainy spell. She couldn't see what kept the big hill of water from rushing down to give the beholder a ducking, and whenever an extra big tidal wavo rolled in would grab her skirts and make a Rursian run for her base of sup plies. She couldn't find any of the Iiretty sea shells she supposed lined the teach but supposed the shell fish were too busy for an outing, or had gone south for the winter, as she says the weather was bo cold it made her teeth chatter.

SHIPPING APPLES TO ALASKA MARKET The Davidson Fruit Co. is sending Hood River apples to Dawson. Three cars left the lirst of the week and three moro are to follow in the next few days. The apples are of mixed varieties, in cluding the Baldwin, Kay and King. Mr. Davidson is paying the growers in the neighborhood of $1 and 1.60 for the apples. Sears & Porter are loading a car of Gravensteiiis for the California markets. Mr. Kpeigel, of the firm of Levy & Spei gel, fruit and commission merchants of Portland, was seen on the streets with Dave Sears, the apple King, Tuesday afternoon, and it is presumed the two were arranging for the sale of some of Sears & Porter's big crop of apples. The Hpitzenburg and Newtown apples sold last week by the Apple Growers' union to Page & Son of Portlaud will be gathered during the month between t he in iddlo of October and the middle of November. The union has secured the services of 1(1 packers who will work under the supervision of four foremen. The pack ers will be paid five cents a box for 128s and less, and six cents for those apples that range above this number to the box. Stranahan Returns from Boston. O. L. Stranahan returned last Friday from Boston, where he attended the na tional encampment of the Grand Army as a delegate from the department of Oregon, While Mr. Stranahan says ho had a good time and was hospitably enter tained by the good people of Boston, he Is more than ever determined never to leave Oregon to look for a home. This country, and Hood River in particular, is good enough for him, and lie advises young men not to be persuaded that there is anything better. The day of the big parade in Boston there were 25,000 veterans in the line of march. The heat was so intense, savs Mr. Stranahan, that many of the old soldiers could not participate. Ambu lances were kept busy picking up the prostrato women and old soldiers who were overcome by the heat of the day. About the best thing of the whole en campment, says Mr. Stranahan, was the dinners the Women's Jtelief corps of Boston would set each day. There were tables for 8,000 old soldiers, and with this large crowd there was no con fusion. Everything went off in fine shape, and the good things put on the tables to eat tickled the hearts and stomachs of the old soldiers. Among tho side excursions arranged for the delegates was a trip in automo biles out the road to Lexington, the same road over which Paul Revere rode on the memorable night of the 18th of April, 1775. Another trip was a 00-mile jaunt on the ocean. After leaving Boston, Mr. Stranahan visited at Chicago, Minneapolis and Northfield, Minn. Here, he says, the farmers are losing their entire wheat crops. Thousands of acres are rendered worthless bv a black rust. In Grand Forks and Fargo wheat buyers have ar ranged ten grades for the wheat. Mr. Stranahan made the trip with Department Commander Pike of Wasco, and he says there isn't a finer man to be found.
