Beaver Ball Games
Lucky For Family
Some families seem to live un
der a lucky star and the Art Gard
ner family seems to be one of
them.
It will be recalled that last year
Art was the winner of a ticket to
Hawaii at a Beaver ball game.
Last Thursday evening, at a game
he did not attend, his grandson,
Mike Beugli, aged three and a
half, was the winner of a pony and
his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lester
Beugli of Porltand, won a $150
grocery order. Mrs. Beugli is the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Art
Gardner.

from 25 countries attended 52 un
iversities and colleges in the
United States and Canada in 1961
62, and two of these were guests
of the convention. The featured
speaker at the educational hour
was Mrs. Vimala Paulus, an In
ternational Peace Scholarship stu

of Oregon this year.

Summer School
Tour Is Taken
Three teachers from the Ver
nonia elementary schools took
their summer school work this
year in a different way which
they found most interesting. They
enrolled at Oregon College of Ed
ucation, Monmouth, for a North
west Pacific tour under the direc
tion of Francis Haines, instruc
tor in the social science depart
ment who also is an author.
The tour left Portland June 18
for a 12 day bus trip which cov
ered 2400 miles, a history span
of 150 years and included many
points of interest overlooked by
the average tourist. There were
35 teachers on the bus, in addi
tion to the instructor and driver.
Those included from Vernonia
were Mrs. Noma Callister, Mrs.
Gladys Worthington and Mrs.
Mathilde Bergerson.
The tour touched on history,
geography, geology and science.
Some of the points included were
the north and south branches of
the Oregon Trail along which they
saw graves of pioneers, sites of
massacres, and other historic
events; various of the completed
and uncompleted dams in both
Oregon and Washington; the his
toric Basque area of the Jordan
valley; the Nez Perce Indian bat
tle grounds and the grave of Chief
Joseph; the old gold mining town
of Idaho City; the unique and
wonderfully attractive Chapel of
the Rockies at Boise, Idaho; the
Maryhill museum and Grand
Coulee dam, to name a few.
At La Grande, they were en
tertained by a choir of Indians. In
Twin Falls, Idaho the Vernonia la
dies were entertained at the home
of Mrs. Worthington’s nephew and
wife.
The instructor pointed out
many things of interest along the
way and gave much background
information to help them enjoy
the trip and to make it of value
to them for future use in their
teaching.
They returned home Saturday
of last week feeling that the time
had been very well spent.

At the meeting of Vernonia
Temple, Pythian Sisters held on
Wednesday evening, June 27 at
the IOOF hall, memorial services
for Mrs. Marie Laschinger were
conducted by the most excellent
chief, Cleo McNair and her of
ficers. Mrs. Laschinger was a
charter member of Willamette
Temple No. 45 at Independence
and two years ago she had re
ceived recognition for 40 years of
continuous membership there.
However, since her residence in
Vernonia, she had been so active
in Vernonia Temple and so faith
ful in her attendance that it was
hard for anyone to remember that
she was not a member here. Since
this temple was not privileged to
drape the charter for her, the me
morial service was held. Nineteen
members of the temple had at
tended the services for her at the
chapel that afternoon.
During the evening, the rug
project was concluded by the
committee headed by Mrs. Olivia
Wood who had made the braided
rug. This week she delivered the
rug to Mrs. Maude Wells.
Mrs. Lucille Hickman was elec
ted grand representative to attend
grand temple sessions in Portland
in October. Mrs. Cora Lange was
named as alternate.
The September ways and means
committee, Faye Davis, Catherine
Lentz and Leah Stiff, started their
project by distributing Happiness
Bags which had with them a verse
explaining their use. Members
are to drop in coins when special
pleasores come their way and
write on the accompanying sheet
of paper why the coin was added.
The bags and reports will be re
turned at the first fall meeting,
September 12.
This was the last meeting until
fall as the group recesses during
July and August.
Following the meeting, refresh
ments of cup cakes and coffee
were served by Laureta Lamping,
Grayce Bundy and Jennie Stan
ley at tables beautifully decorated
with red roses. Members whose
birthdays had occurred during
April, May and June found their
cakes adorned with lighted can
dles and Happy Birthday was
sung to them.
