Æugagement Reveled al Pent? Held Here July 9 Rebekahs Assist With Xray Unit Mrs. Marie Atkins, noble grand, presided at the regular meeting of Mt. Heart Rebekah lodge which was held last Thursday evening at the IOOF hall.

The next regular meeting of the lodge will be at the IOOF hall July 28. VISIT THE This is the week end of the year when Vernonia plays host to many guests. It is the week end when the town welcomes the many people expected to come for the fourth annual Friendship Jamboree, an event which is be coming better and better known as is indicated by questions about the affair from people living else where. The schedule of two excursion trains from Portland and the Ver nonia Society picnic will bring some people who otherwise would not come. Then the usual Jam boree events such as the logging show and horse show as well as the window displays and rock show will bring other people. All of this indicates that a greater number of people will be here than has been true in former years of the Jamboree. For the town to properly host these peo ple, it is imperative that every Vernoniaite consider himself el igible to welcome these visitors, to answer their questions and to help make their stay enjoyable Most local business firms have taken space this week to express a welcome to visitors by listing their messages in this Jamboree edition of The Eagle which is scheduled to go to every home in the valley. To make the edition even more effective, color has been used to enliven some pages and quite a bit of research has been done to provide a news story about Jam borees of former years. We hope you like it. For this year’s celebration, as has been true for the three pre vious years, there will be on dis play in windows a considerable amount of material that is high in value. A new display sched uled for this Jamboree is to be arranged by the Coin club and this display alone, not to men tion the many others, will require constant protection. This protection is to be assured, word from the Columbia county sheriff's office earlier this week indicates. Sheriff Spencer Younce is arranging for men from his of fice to be here during the Jam boree for this purpose and also for one more reason, he mentions. He is issuing orders that the deputies on duty will devote some of their attention to the actions of auto drivers. Too much hot-rod driving is bringing complaints from many and his men will seek to put a stop to this practice, at least during the celebration. The services of his office will be wel come.

Hickerson, Columbia county extension agent. Sulfur dust (80 per cent sulfur and higher; 325 mesh or finer) is recommended for control. Dusting should start as soon as the white rust pustules are notic ed on the leaves. The white pus tules often appear first on the lower leaves. Continue dusting at 7 day intervals until the first blossoms appear. It is not advis able to dust after pods have form ed since some canneries have ex perienced difficulties when using products bearing sulfur. | I CLARE'S I J 126 N E 2nd Ave. MI 8 4857 • I I Hillsboro, Oregon Weaver "Pop” Clark, Mer. । SAM’S FOOD STORE Free Delivery. 3 Condit Family Reunion Held At Mist Sunday FREE GROPEREC! For a greener summer lawn, maintain a good fertility program says Hugh J. Hickerson, County Extension Agent. Fertilizing not only makes the grass greener but also saves on the water bill. A lack of fertiliz er can often be mistaken for a lack of water during the summer. Water cannot, itself, make grass green. Water does help the grass to make better use of the fertility in the soil. But, fertilizer is needed to provide this fertility. Most commercial lawn or gar den fertilizers when used in ade quate amounts and according to directions are satisfactory. At this season, those which contain a relative high proportion of nitro gen to other plant nutrients are desirable, according to Hickerson. • Old Dusting Is Advised for Control of Rust on Beans Mt Heart Social club met July 12 at the home of Catherine Lentz After President Mane Atkins op ened the meeting. 13 members answered to roll call.
