Ot'R SCHOOL BOARD
With a small attendance at the meet
ing, the school tax for District No. 3,
comprising tbe city of Hood River and
surrounding neighborhood, was reduced
recently. Suppose the patrons consider
the small attendance and the simultan
eous reduction. It may cause all fu
ture meetings to be small affairs.
Levity aside, the reduction of the
school tax levy may be traced to the
work of the school board of tbe city.
Tbe board p composed of earnest work
ers. The matters of the schools of the
city of Hood River are being given tbe
care that good business demands.
By comparing the interest taken by
local orchardists in the recent Land
and Products Show of Portland and
that interest displayed this week in the
poultry and stock shows, one can see
the hold that stock raising as a diversi
fied side-line has taken on local men.
But a aingle display of local apples was
made, and it took blue ribbons. While
but one man from Hood Kiver exhib
ited his stock, the shows of this week
called out a better attendance
LUMBER MILLS WILL
RUN NEXT YEAR
While all local mills with the excep
tion of the plant of the Hood River
Foreat Products Co., will be closed this
inter, tbe saws will buzs merrily
again next spring. Both tbe large
plants of the Oregon Lumber Co. at
Dee and the Green Point mill of tbe
Stanley-Smith Lumber Co. are expect
ing a gratifying portion of tbe big tie
and timber contracta that will be let
by tbe O.-W. R. & N. Co. in carrying
out its million dollar improvement pro-
our mill at uee. says uiaa. i.
Early, "is being pushed now, in order
that we may close up contracta and close
down for the winter. While our mills
in eastern Oregon can operate success-
fully in the winter months, men do very
Door work because oi trie climatic con
ditions that prevail in the local woods.'
While tbe lumber business lor tne
most part shows no marked improve
ment, according to Mr. Early, there is
an optimistic reeling among mm men
because of tbe betterment of prices for
heavy timbers.
J. E. Kobertson, manager or the
Stanley-Smith Co., says that his com
pany s plant, which has been idle tor
the past two summers, will be operated
next summer, even though It is unsuc
cessful in bidding for railway timbers.
The plant of the forest Products Co.,
located on Phelps creek, is employing
about 32 men. It will operate through
out the winter in all probability, ac
cording to A. A. Lausmann, secretary
oi tne company.
What is Henry Ford going to do when
he gets to Europe with his peace
party? If you were walking down the
street and met a salmon dressed in the
height of fashion and eating a Hood
River apple, you would not be sur
prised if the salmon climbed a tree and
sailed off into the blue heaven, would
you? It was an extraordinary Btunt,
that of the jitney manufacturer, in
taking along a large party of peace
advocates to Mars-governed Europe.
The public will not be surprised at any
thing that follows.
Hood River county is certainly a wet
dry community. Fordham B. Kimball's
records as weather observer show a
rainfall of 12.06 inches during the last
six'weeks, while at Cascade Locks 22
inches of rain have fallen.
HEIGHTS HAS INTER-
EST IN ELECTION
The municipal election of Monday
was uneventful. Out of the 600 elect
ors but 155 visited the polls. Except
for the voters of the Heights, citizens
displayed an apathy. Ibe Heights vot
era' interest caused their candidate for
the council, James Carnes, to romp in
with largest total of any councilman
The two other councilrnen elected were
Dr. E. L. Scobee, 98; James Strana-
han, 89. S. A. Mitchell received 84
votes for councilman.
It caused a general surprise that the
charter amendment, providing for the
increase of the maximum annual street
tax levy from two to five mills should
be defeated by a vote of 71 to 55.
H. L. Howe, lor city recorder was
given the highest vote of any candidate
111, while Louis Henderson, lor trees
urer, received 119.

Just Little Stories
Ernest S. Colby, as he was walking
up Cascade avenue last Saturday night
with his wife, thought he saw the light
of the Aurora Borealis in the northern
sky. After Mr. Colby and his wife had
watched the peculiar phenomenon lor
several minutes, the husband knocked
at the door of a neighbor. Soon the
residents for two blocks on the south
side of the street were out gazing at
the heavens.
A pedestrain walking up the north
side of the street was bailed and told
to see the peculiar light. The latter,
however, looked in vain, and it was
discovered that the streak of luminous
sky was really an optical illusion. The
sky gazers had been looking at spark'
ling drops of water on the many wires
of a telephone line on the north side of
the street.
The cry of "Lost Child" spresd
through the business section of Hood
River last one evening recently just as
the stores were closing for the day.
Accompanied by her two childern,
"Buster," aged 4, and Hazard Perry,
a small baby. Mrs. L. J. Butterfleld
was shopping at the 5, 10 and 15 cent
store. When she had finished her
purchases and had received her pack
ages, "Buster" was missing. A search
in the basement, where tables were
laden with Christmas novelties, was
unsuccessful, nor was the little fellow
found on the streets or in any nearby
business establishments.
The alarm spread quickly, and with
the mother frantic, searchers began to
comb the downtown district. Finally
the boy was discovered two blocks
away knocking at the locked door of
the Butler Banking house.
"Buster" explained to tbe women who
found him that he wanted to borrow
some money to buy a sled for Christ
mas. It is needless to say that his de
sire has been reported to Santa Claus,
and the benevolent old saint of Christ
mas time is reported to have reserved
a flyer for the young business man's
Y uletide delectation.
Anniversary Feast Grown at Home
The 40th wedding anniversary feast

home is on May street. Paradise acre
age, was characterized by the serving
of home grown products throughout
every course. Chickens, full cream
cheese, all kinds of fruit jellies.grapes,
pumpkin pica and honey were served,
The anniversary celebration occurred
on Thanksgiving day. The dinner had
been planned for several weeks, but
Mr. and Mrs. Johnson had forgotten
that it was their wedding anniversary
until, after the guests had assembled.
Ihe following guests were present
Mr. and Mrs. John Dixon and two sons,
Harold and Hey; Mr. and Mrs. W. A
Isenberg and children, Walter, Ruth.

The admirable ambition of Colonel
William F. Tucker to return to the ac
tive list of the army will not be real
ized. The board of examiners, who
held tests for Col. Tucker last week at
Vancouver barracks, have reported that
while he is normal in many respects.
it is feared that he would not be able
to stand field duty, if called for such
service. Col. Tucker bears his disap
pointment with fortitude. His offer to
again give cis time ana talents to the
country was an evidence of that patri
otism that inspires practically every
officer who has been in the service. In
the event of war, we shall have here
plenty of men like Col. Tucker ready
and eager to oppose the enemy. The
fear is that the United States, like
Ureal Britain, will discover its weak
ness in defense among the hosts of un
ionized labor, that will neither fight
nor wont, nor permit others to work.

Associated Aids Organized
Monday evening at the commercial
club parlors representatives of the
churches, fraternal organizations, and
the Commercial club met and organized
a body to be known as the Associated
Aids. About 15 were present. The fol
lowing were elected permanent officers:
Mrs. T. J. Kinnaird, Pres. ; Rev. H. A.
MacDonald, vice pres. ; Harold Hersh
ner, treas. ; R. E. Scott, sec. These
four with K. A. Cram comprise the ex
ecutive committee, which will have
charge of all aid extended tbe coming
winter to the needy.
The employment question will be han
dled, and those seeking labor of various
kinds, or needing a worker for small
jobs, are requested to make their wants
known to the secretary at the Commer
cial club. Those seeking employment
are requested to ask at the same place.
The philanthropic committee of tbe
Womans club fcas turned its funds into

leave them at a central point to be dis
tributed Christmas Eve.

was handled through such a committee
and in a very satisfactory manner. A
letter will be addressd to all fraternal
organizations asking for their help.
W. 0. W. Members Yisit White Salmon
Twenty-eight members of the local
lodge of Woodmen of the World visited
White Salmon last Saturday evening
and with their drill team put on work
of initiation at the neighboring lodge.
Before the fraternal men left the city
they called a White Salmon livery man
to meet them at the White Salmon
ferry landing. After a wait, the liv
eryman not arriving, the lodgemen pro
ceeded to toil and puff up tbe steep
grsde.
The liveryman, meeting them- half
way up the grade road, cried "all
aboard." However, the party refused
to accept the rigs at the full price.
When the White Salmon man held out
for the full fare, they pursued tbe up
hill tenor of their way.
Tbe bill of the liveryman has not yet
been paid, the local men feeling that
he is not entit ed to the full fare de
manded. .
