ODELL
THANKSGIVING DAY :
AS SEEN BY SHELLEY
By Roswell Shelley.
Odell, East Hood River Valley, Deo.
fi. The aunual day of bonie-ooming,
Hie day of family reunions, tne day
whoa hearthstones are warmed and
when heart are opened, the day of
good things to eat and good cheer,
that memorable Thanksgiving day baa
come and gone since our last notes
were written. Passing this plainly
marked milestone in our lives we are
wont to pauseand render thanks for
the good things that have been ours
during the year that is gone. Tak
ing a practical view of the matter I
should say thut we get about all we
Unserve in this life, each passing year
proves this. For it we sow to tbe wind
we reap the whirlwind. For wbatso
fcvor a man soweth that shall be also
reap. This we read lu the good book
the proof of which we see on every
hand in every phase of life while we
aro the benellciarius of mauygood
things that are a f ee gift to us, yet
should we cease our efforts along any
legitimate line we wouli soon find
ourselves bankrupt either in purse or
spirit suoh a condition would banish
hope and without hope life would
mean death. Show me a man who is
not buoyant and hoperul and I will
show you a pessimist. "lis well to
have a look at both sides of life but
our dwelling place or cottage so to
speak, should stand on the sunlit side
where hope is.
The Thanksgiving entertainment
given by the Udell school last Wed
nesday afternoon whs appropriate,
suggestive, and historic It was away
beyond the expectations of the pat-'
rous of the school. It was given by
the pupils of Miss Thompson and Miss
Hull, and was heartily enjoyed by
only a few of the patrons who some
how found out that a good prorgara
awaited them. Being along Thanks
giving lines the plot was laid with a
picture of the pilgrims reaching our
shores. There was also a picture of
George Washington. Then some of
the little tots were dressed In primi
tive pilgrim style. Lot The untutored
savage was there. The field luborers
were there. The fruit of tiie harvest
was there. The songs and recitations
impressed you with the fact thut it
was Thanksgiving day. The pupils
showed training as well as application
In the perfect rendition of the pro
gram. Those who were fortunate
enough to be present were loud in
praise of the excellent work of both
teachor and pupils. We aro promised
other entertainments during the holi
days and when von road the an
nouncement you had best thiuk it
over and come, for it will pay.
To the dancing element of the com
munity, the Thanksgiving masquer
ade ball at the 1. O. O. F. hail at
Odell last Thursday night must have
heen the real thing. 1 Judge this not
from any report from the management
but rather from the number of horses
that were stabled in the open air,
s'anding in snow nil nightlong. About

ten o'clock all the driveways leading
to the warehouse and the Litttle White
store, and our private stable, were
blocked with teams, the drivers of
which were patrons of the Odell Im
provement Co., who, without knowl
edge of the situation wvre iiuiccent
trespassers upon piivate proprely.Oue
fellow, whose brains are iu his heels,
without our oonsent hi died bis horse
inside our warehouse, ground and up
on ground we bad fixed for a lawn.
We bitched bim to a tree in the pub
lic road, but someway when he got
ready to go home becaue he didu't
find ill tn where he bad -left bim,
wended his way borne on foot, a dis
tance of four miles. The next morn
ing our stable door was open and the
gute leading to the stable was also
open aud a young apple orchard at
the mercy of stock that are loose in
the road. The Little White store
people have gone to the expense of
putting up more than 100 feet of
hitching rack for the accommodation
of the public This is the only
publio bitching rack here. We regret
the neceeesity of mentioning this
matter at all again, but we now say
in positive terms that this midnight
marai.dering and destruction of prop
erty and the trespassing upon private
grounds and property must stop at
once, and while we regret the necis -ity
of doing so, yet we shall keep the
publio advised concerning this very
disagreeable matter until some one
else, takes steps to take caie of the
horses belonging to their patrons and
ofr of whom they are making money.

Last Friday evening was literary
night, and the house was packed to
the doors and the program was smooth
as the poet'a dream. It was not a.l
the work of amateurs. Among the
visitors preseut were Mr. Gillespie of
Barrett and Mr. Keen of W illow Flat.
Both these gentlemen sre stars. Mr.
Keen as an elocutionist distinguished,
himself with a recitnl that culled for
another. The last was entitled "A
Ploture on the liar Room Floor." It
was full of pathos and showed the
human heart torn with despair, Mr.
Gillespie favored ui with two bulimia,
the seoond one was the result of en
core. Una or tuese was an irisn
ballad, the title of which I cannot re
call, but it touched a responsive chord
in the hearts of bis bearers. The oth
er was along comic lines. The. melo
dy in both the sougs was charming
and carried the large audience along
amid waves of delight. The entire
program was replete with good things
well rendered, every number being
worthy of special mention. A good
literary always proves an advantage
to any oommunity. It alfords free
education to both old and young, and
where the program is varied so as to
embrace all classes,' it proves profit
able. -

benpeak for bim the success be so
richly deserves.
Many items are missed la out week
ly rounds, one of which was a new

of a 11 pound boy three weeks ago,
born to the wife of Mr. Keen, whose
name appears in these notes.
Rev. Troy Shelley preached point
ed sermon last Sunday morning, his
text being taken from John 1!, which
speaks of the true vine aud the hus
bandman. Upon the 7th versa he laid
particular stress. It reads as follows:
"If ye abide in me, and my words in
yon, ye shall ask what ye will and it
shall be done unto you." The Teach
er said that bad Jesus been talking
to Hood Hicer people he would have
said apple tree instead of vine, but
as be was In a country of vineyards,
be spoke of the vine. The thought
that prompted this sermon was to
help and encourage the new converts
recently added to the church at Odell
through the efforts of Rer. Ilandsak
er. It was a good practical sermon,
and laying aside the spiritual side of
the question, the 15th chapter of
Jclin is good reading for the apple
growers of Hood River vnlley.
P. T. Shelley and Clinton Wood of
Odoll are now sojourning at Green
Point, working at the new saw mill
there, but Sunday always finds them
at borne.
Everett Lafierty, who spent the
summer et Sump tor in Baker county.
returned home last week and will
spend the wiuter st Odell with bis
father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. G.
W.Lalferty. Everett has many friends
here who always welcome bis return.
John Lawless, who for years has
been a familiar figure in town aud
country, will soon leave Odell for Cal
ifornia, in the hope of benefitting bis
wife's health. We shall miss that
smile of John's as well as the music
of the bolls of the leaders of bis four
horse team. John is truly a charaotei
which, under the touch of a gifted
writer, could be made to shine forth
and from beneath the rough exterior
reflect pure gold. Jobu, during his
year of hard work here, bad lain the
foundation for a competence, and it
seems too bad that he must leave bis
comfortable home. Wherever he goes
we wish him well.
Mike Neff has sold bis ranch on the
east side road near town and moved
in with bis brother. Frauk Neff ot
Odell.
The following Odell people were at

That German coach stallion that is

We live in one of the best comers of
tbe world, and we ought to be thank
ful that we are alive and thut ought
to be enough to be tbauklul for, iet

receive every day in the year. We
heard a man remark ou Thanksgiving
duy that ho didn't seo why the i'resi
dent should set n day for giving
thanks whon the world owed us a liv
ing. If the world owes us a living it
will give us a living if we do our

that way aud can't help it.

We received a letter recently from

We received a letter ou Monday of
this week from Albert A Graham, a
former Hood Kiver newsboy. He
writes that be has fully recovered from
the attack of rheumatism that caused
him to leave Hood River, but he
earnestly wi dies that ho was back here
gnawing ou the northwest corner of a
Hpiteuberg apple. He witos that
tbs Califoruia apples have but little
more taste to them thau to, much
rotten wood. It appears that a taste
of Hood River apple1 destroys auy
one's relish for all ot era.

Chandler three or four years ago sold
forty acres of land, as 1 suppose he,
an old timer, thought it a good price.
Now be has bought it back at an ad
vance of just fifty per cent, If my
information la correct. The old
bachelor, Mr. Atwood, contemplates
returning back east, and I hope, set
tle down with tbe girl be left behind.
Another Hood Riverlte staits for
West Crapper, misses his road and
lands up at tbe old Vork place, and
returns to town with a smile and is
owner of John Phillips' property.
. I will say here foi tbe benefit of
those who contemplate buying in
I West Crapper to come via Crapper

hauling maohinery to Green Point.
If Mr. Abbott will come over here 1
I will show bim some land that will

Mr. King tells me he is coming up
nere ti get some ot in is land as soou
as ho can sell out. Come on, Andy.
SVe have a little snow left here yet,
but it does not stop clearing for more
apple trees.
Joe Wilson was enquiring for snow
apples the other day for a friend, said
if he could not get them here he
duln t think he could And them in
the valley, as fruit kept so much bet
ter here. He ia quite right, and the
reason be did not get th iu is that we
did not have them to spare. Bold
short, and like a good apple ourselves
to eat. we nave got tbem all right,
aud may have some to send to Port
laud next month, although they ure
early fall apples.
We struck Thanksgiving fine; bad

Tbe young people of 'Mosier gave a
grand mask ball Thanksgiving night
which was largely attended, and
proved a deoided success in every par
ticular. The usual peace and quietude which
prevails among tbe people of Mosier
was muoh disturbed on Monday morn

robbers, big cash register taken there
from to a place near the railroad traok
aud blown to pieces. The remunera
tion for the poor tbiet'g "time aud

Contributed Liberally.
The school children of the Hood
River schools contributed liberally
toward tbe donation for the homeless
children in the care of the Boys' and
(lir)g' Aid Society. Tbey gave fruit,
vegetables, clothing, shoes and useful
articles of all descriptions for this
puropse. Wasco county has lead iu
donating for this purpose and we have
no doubt it will do so this year.
Bought Subscription List.
The management of the "Paoiflo
Northwest" has bought the subscrip
tion lists of the Lewis & Clark Journ
al and tbe Oregon Booster and tbey
will be transferred to the list of the
above mentioned publication. "The
Pacifio Northwest" is getting out a
very interesting publication these days
and it is also a triunipn of tbe puts
man's art.
Tinted LnAa.
One of tbe exhibits in an Euglist
anatomical museum Is a collection oi
three lungs preserved In alcohol. Ou
one hand la an exhibit almost pure
white, while the third is Jet black, tht
one between being a dirty gray.
The first was taken from an Eskimo
who all bis life had inhaled the pure aii
of bis northern home. The black was
taken from a miner who had spenl
years in the production of coal. The
third was from the body of a London
man, and the tint was produced by tb
Inhalation of the soot carried in the
air.
It is a certain fact that the lungs of
tbe miner were in a more healthy state
than those of the city dweller, since
the grit In his tissues was pure coal
dust, while the discoloration of the other
was due not alone to soot, but to thu
dust of a city's streets composed of a
thousand and one deleterious elements.
