SUBSCRIPTION RATES Three months............................. Six months................................ One year..................................... $0.40 $0.75 $150 PRO G RESS OUR M O TTO Cascade Locks is— — the first city to purchase power from the Bonneville Dam. — the first city to light its streets with Bonneville power. — the first city to erect and place in oper ation a municipal distribution system, the power supplied by Bonneville Dam. -—the first city to offer “the cheapest elec tricity in the world" from the Bonneville Dam to industry. — the city nearest the Bonneville Dam. Such was some of the information contained in pamphlets broadcast at the recent Power Days celebration and also at the program at The Dalles in the same day. Copies of the program were put on the boats that formed the flotilla that steamed up the Columbia. Copies were put in the hands of Governor Martin, J. D. Ross, Congressmen, and other dignitaries who attended the two celebrations. Cascade Locks has established a record for itself as shown by the above facts. Since the start of construction on the mighty dam, “the little city with the big future" has won wide acclaim, due to efforts of its wide-awake citizens and progressive attitude. A splendid start toward a new era has been made. It is up to all of us—business men, professional men, housewives- government employees, workers— to “talk up” the future of Cascade Locks. T H E BO Y S AT W Y E T H “The present contingent of enrollees at Camp Cascade Locks, the Wyeth CCC camp, is the finest group of boys that have ever been in this district” was the gist of comments in recent weeks from the merchants of Cascade Locks. Rowdyism, petty offenses and unnecessary noise, common among many groups of youth when they are seeking recreation in off-duty hours, is not evident when the CCC boys come to town. The boys are courteous and gentlemanly. It is often a different story when the “fleet is in” at world ports, and the sailor boys start on a spree. It is also a dif ferent story when young collegians go to town for a rally or football contest. The gentlemanly attitude of the Wyeth boys is appreciated, and Cascade Locks busi ness men desire to show their appreciation. So on Saturday night they are playing host to the CCC boys. The boys and the general public are invited to a dance at the Dugout. No admission price will be charged and a good time is assured.
