Bellingham and other PuRet Sound points, tell of an interest ing experience of the road. As they were bowling along the Pacific High way, Mrs. Bell driving, they over hauled a lone pedestrian, a large pack on his back. They took the wayfarer, an old man who gave his age as 78, aboard and proceeded. Mrs. Bell was growing weary at the wheel, and progress of the car soon ev idenced it. The aged passenger, who, however, appeared stalwart and hale, finally asked .that he be permitted to disembark. "Why, aren't you going on to the next town" asked Mr. Bell. "Yes." the old man replied, "but to be frank with you, I'd rather walk. I was riding in an automobile once, when a woman was driving, and we had a wreck." The old man was persuaded to keep his seat, provided Mr. Bell took the wheel. He was a French-Canadian and a. logging camp blacksmith. "When we reached Kalama, " says Mr. Bell, "he invited us to dine with him. He proved an excellent host and a good conversationalist when once the ice was broken. He declared that he continued his occupation because he loved to be busy. That he did not need funds was evidenced when he drew forth a huge roll of bills to pay for the elaborate dinner. The old man was a Civil war veteran. He was born at St. John, New Brunswick, near my own birthplace." While in Bellingham Mr. and Mrs. Bell visited Mr. and Mrs. Harry Lar kin. Mr. Larkin. who is now incharge of a large cannery at Bellingham, one of the few on thecoast that has con tinued uninterrupted operation during the period of deflation, was formerly connected with the Hood Kiver Can ning Co. Henri Thiele, manager of the Co lumbia Corge Hotel, responding last week at a luncheon of the Tuesday Lunch Club, declared that the hostelry would be of great financial benefit to Hood Kiver. He cited direct benefits that would result' from ranchers in selling cream and garden product to the hotel. As an indirect benefit. Mr. Thiele stated that the hostelry would bring hundreds of additional tourists here, all of which would result in much. good advertising for the fruit com munity. C. W. McCullagh declared that the people of Hood River owed to Mr. Thiele their fullest cooperation. Other portions of the program, arranged by and presided over by Rev. Boddy, were : Vocal foIo, MrB. P, S. Davidson ; violin solo, C. King Benton ; short address by Judge Mason, formerly of the Kansas Supreme Bench, who was the guest of Leslie Butler. Miss Sara Howes was accompanist for the solos. Newspaper Men Call Two Oregon ex-newspaper men, M. W. Pettigrew, former publisher of the Redmond Spokesman, and W. I). Nel son, until recently owner of the Haines Record, passed through Hood River Saturday while on automobile tours. Mr. Pettigrew, who recently sold his publication to Douglas Mullarkey, was returning home with his family from a vacation at coast resorts. He still owns'agricultural interests in the cen tral Oregon country. While here Mr. Pettigrew called on his old boyhood friend, W. F. Laraway, whom he knew in early days in Glenwood, la. Mr. Nelson was returning home from a prospecting tour in western Wash ington. He will leave Haines soon, he says, for Ridgefield, Wash., where he will take charge of a newspaper. Mr. Nelson in 1907 worked on the Glacier. SEMI-ANNUAL STATEMENT OF HOOD RIVER COUNTY as shown by records in Clerk's Office. GET THE SAVING HABIT AND BUY AT HOME.
