"We do not wish to go back to the
old ox trains and the tallow dips of pi
oneer days," said. Mrs. Alma L. Howe,
in a talk Sunday night at Ashury
Methodist chrucb, "but we would be
better if we had more of the kindness
of heart and brotherly helpfulness of
the pioneer day. In those early times
the spirit of unselfishness prevailed."
Mrs. Howe was principal speaker at
"Pioneer Night," arranged by the
Men's club of the church. J. it. For
den presided at the session. Mrs.
Howe recalled experiences of members
of a wagon train, in which relatives of
hers came to Oregon. Her own par
ents, she stated, came to the state by
one of the early trains. She told of
the incidents of hardship characteriz
ing the long 2,000-mile journey by the
slow ox-drawn prairie schooners. The
trip required six months, and the new
settlers, arriving in the new land in
late fall had to provide themselves for
a full year, as the late arrival prevent
ed the harvest of a crop until the sec
ond year.
Mrs. Howe cited how the wagon
trains in almost all incidents were ac
companied by ministers. She told of
the constant fear the travelers were in
from Indians. But, the speaker de
clared, much of the trouble with the
aborigines might have been eliminated
if the whites had understood the Jndi
ans better.
Mrs. Howe expressed the belief that
the California gold rush in the late 40s
bad a decided effect on Oregon citizen
ship. It resulted, she declared, in a
culling out process, leaving here the
home-loving and taking away the rest
leas spirits, whose influence long had
an effect on California life leaving it
of a more turbulent nature.
It had been anticipated that Rev. G.
W. Kennedy, pioneer who came to the
state with his parents t9 years ago and
who was an early day circuit rider,
having traveled 80,000 miles in his
work, would give reminiscences of
early day life. Mr. Kennedy, how
ever, was ill and unable to attend,
Kev. Gabriel Sykes read extracts from
a book on pioneer times published by
Mr. Kennedy several years ago. Mr,
Kennedy prepared a jargon poem for
the occasion. the poem, entitled
"Nesika Klose Ilahe," follows:
In eighteen hundred and fifty-three,
Nika Charco,
Across the pains and mountains grand,
Nika Charco,
Hiu Siwash nanich Nika,
Halo white-man mitlite yaka,
The emigrant journey not yet done,
The prize which he so nobly won,
Was farther towards the setting-sun.
In eighteen hundred and sixty-three,

Up from Willamette illahe,
Nika Charco.
Hiu Siwash mitlike yaka;
Halo white-man nanich nika:
The miner then with spirit bold.
True pattern of the western mould.
Went eastward to the fields of gold.

Tenas white-man nanich Nika,

Thus provoking Indian battle.

All brothers now, no longer foes.

GUN CLUB NEWS
On account of a large number of the
Gun club boys going to Portland to at
tend the Rose City Hundred shoot, the
attendance at the local traps last Sun
day was small, and it is safe to say
that a few others had their enthusiasm
taken away by the hard wind that
stayed with us nearly all day and made
shooting a hard game. The scores in
the different classes are as follows, each
member shooting at 25 targets.

Donell Bros. InsUa "Breaker"
Howell Bros, have installed a unqiue
machine at tbeir shop for breaking in
newly rebored automobile cylinders.
The cylinders, when the reboring is
finished, are bolted to a frame work
like the chassis of a car, and are at
tached to a abaft driven from an over
head pulley. This operatoin enables
the mechanics to detect any irregular
ity in the reboring. and all adjustments
ran be made before the cylinders are
placed in the automobile.

One of the immediate results of the
Hood River County Division of the
Oregon State Teachers Association,
which was organized at the county
institute recently, was the appoint
ment of a committee on the teacher
situation for this county. This com
mittee. composed of Geo. Axtelle,
principal of the Pine Grove scho j! and
president of trie county association
Mrs. Clara Steele, of Barrett; Miss
Esther Hettinger, of Parkdale; Mrs,
Grace T. Laraway, of Pine Grove ; W
E. Niebol, principal of Odell high
school, and Supt. A. M. Cannon, of
Hood River, chairman of the commit
tee, made its report after securing in
formation from every school teacher
and every board of directors in the
county, excepting two schools. In
substance the committee reports as
follows:
From one-third to one-half of the
teachers will leave the county for
other positions elsewhere, some of
them at better salaries.
No school board in the county in
tends to lower the present scale of
teachers' salaries.
Some school boards are prepared and
willing to pay even better salaries for
better teachers. "A dollar of salary
for a dollar of service is the motto.
There is little or no sentiment out
6ide school circles to lower teachers
salaries.
All persons interviewed, both board
members and patrons, expressed firm
conviction that nothing should be done
to lower the present (efficiency of the
schools: but that better teachers and
better equipment should be had when
ever and wherever possible to raise
the standard already maintained in
Hood River.county.

FOREST PROTECTION
WEEK, APRIL 16-22
In celebration of Forest Protection
Week, President Harding has issued
the following proclamation:
Whereas, the protection and perpet
uation of our forests are vital to our
continued industrial welfare and na
tional strength and to our individual
health, comfort and prosperity, and
Whereas, a period or fu years has
passed since in April, 1872, there was
instituted in the state of Nebraska ob
servance of a day especially set apart
and consecrated for tree planting and
known as Arbor day, and
Whereas, both through widespread
annual celebration of Arbor day and
through the increasing observance of
Forest Protection Week public atten
tion has been commendably directed to
the value of trees, the unnecessary
waste of our diminishing forests
through preventable fires, the deplor
able effects of forest devastation and
the need for remedial measures against
depletion of an essential natural re
source,
Therefore, I, Warren G. Harding,
President of the United States, do
urge upon the governors of the various
states to designate and set apart the
week of April 16-22. 1922, as Forest
Protection Week and the last day of
that week, April 22, as the golden an
niversary of Arbor dav, and to request
officers of public instruction of coun
ties, cities and towns and of civic and
commercial organizations to unite in
thought and action for the preserva
tion of our common heritage by plan
ning such educational and instructive
exercises as shall bring before the peo
ple the disastrous effects of the pres
ent waste by forest fires and the need
of individual and collective effort to
conserve the forests and increase our
tree growth for ornament and use.
In witness whereof. 1 have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
united Mates of America to be anixed.
Done in the District of Columbia,
this 31st day of March, in the vear of
our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred
nd Twenty-two and of the Indeen
ence of the United States of America
the One Hundred and Forty-sixth.
Warren G. Harding.

CO. C NOTES
"I have often wondered," said J. R.
Forden, presiding the other night at a
session of the Men's club, an organiza
tion ofAsbury Methodist church, "why
we have so many English preachers
out here. Perhaps it is that they wiwh
to come among us as pioneers in
ideals."
The coming of the young English
clergymen, however, was explained by
Rev. Gabriel Sykes, hniself an En
glishman. "While over in Pullman, Wash.,"
said Mr. Sykes, "1 became superin
tendent of a district. 1 found that I
did not have enough ministers to go
around. 1 communicated with eastern
churchmen, and found that they were
not willing to come to the northwest
unless they could find things 'so and
so.' I wrote back that we could olfer
them unlimited opportunities, but that
I was afraid that we couldn't furnish
the 'so and. so. ' I happe.-.ed then to
think of England and I tent an adver
tisement to a paper that I knew there,
seeking young ministers who wished
new opportunities but who would not
expect things 'so and so.' 1 soon had
a lot of young English preachers with
me.
"Here in the northwest we have
been so busy doing other things, in de
veloping the wonderful resources of
our country, that we haven't had time
to deveolp preachers. We have been
behind in this duty."
