there is very badly tn need of rain. He

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. And the audience encored.

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

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. The oflice (level, however, says
Bhe was just scared. All things consid

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.
