fraternity. Sans Souci Club and the Chess
Club.
The High School Cinch Club is a very
~well-knOwn organization of ShOrtridge boys
who were fOrmerly members OF the school.
y few Of the members at present attend
Shortridge- The boys have fitted elegant
quarters in the PrOpylaeum, where posters,
tobacco sacks, pillows and other such deco
ratiOns adorn the walls. Sylvester John
son is president, Waite CoIgan secretary
and Ed Wallick treasurer. The room is a
popular place for the boys TO meet after a
contest such as was held on Thanksgiving
and talk over the result. There Is always
something doing at the club. where the
members are very hospitable and every one
Is made welcome.
But for one thing the Shortridge High
School would be like other high schools
and that flavor of college environment
would be sadly lacking. Without that en-
terprising school organ. the Daily Echo,
much of the pleasure which the pupils now
get out OF their school life would necessar-
lily be lost. In 1898 Fletcher Wagner start
ed a one-page daily paper as a private in
Vestment, and two years ago the School
Board purchased presses for the school and
the FACULTY took charge Of the sheet, which
was then made a fOur-page paper. The en-
terprise was a decided success and has
continued 10 prosper. The Daily Echo has
the distinction Of being the only high
school daily in the world. while only fifteen
colleges can boast OF a daily organ. 1t has
one scoop TO its credit, OF which 1t Is ex-
ceedingly proud. On March %. 1900, the
Echo "scooped" all Of the city papers, get
ting out an extra edition. with glaring
headlines, showing how it happened"
When President Mckinley visited Indian
apolis, on Oct. "A, 1898, he was presented
witt a copy Of the paper tied with blue and
white ribbon. Special editions are got out
on Thanksgiving and Christmas, and the
subscription list contains the names OF per-
sons all over the United States and some in
Europe.
The Echo booms all school enterprises.
and, like all partisan newspapers, rejoices
with the school In victory and consoles il in
defeat. The paper weaves all the organi-
cations into one. whose sole object and am
bition is to bring glory and honor to the
blue and white of the Shortridge High
School. Following is the staff of the pa
per. of which all Shortridge students feel
justly proud:

THE MOON AND THE WEATHER.
Attempts to Base Weather Predictions
Upon Supposed Lunar Influences.
New York Evening Sun,

New York Evening SUM-.
Some persons still believe that the wealth
er is controlled TO an important extent by
the influence of the moon or the planets.
Long-range weather predictions based upon
this supposed influence are published, ap-
parently finding a considerable number of
believers or it would not pay to print them.
Another experiment of this sort is now be-
ing tried in Russia.
During the past year a journal called
Climat has been published every two
months at st. Petersburg. 1t is printed in
English, German, French and Russian un-
der the editorship of Mr.. Nicolai DENT
schinsky. The earlier numbers were dc
voted TO predictions OF the weather for a
long time in advance by means Of certain
deductions based upon the alleged infiu-
ence of the moon. The publication OF these
articles seems TO have revived some inter-
est in the matter. The predictions were
made TO include places as far away as
Aberdeen. Scotland. and Valencia, Spain.
DR.. II. r. Mill. the editor of Symons's
Monthly Meteorological Magazine, has just
subjected the predicted weather conditions
for Aberdeen and Valencia to the test of
comparison with the weather actually OBJ
served at those places. The results are
disastrous for the predictions. He found,
as was 10 be expected, that practically
the forecasts as a whole would appear TO
be valueless' as far at least as those two
stations are concerned. A note In the bull
letin OF the American Geographical Society
says that. as far as the writer has OBJ
served. this is the only published COMPARE
son OF predictions with the facts of OBJ
served weather.
1t cannot be said that any noteworthy
results have yet been attained from the
efforts of many persons to trace the sup
posed influence OF the moon upon weather.
DR.. Ham. in his great work on "Klimato-
logic" makes no allusion to the matter.
Professor Davis. Of Harvard. in his "Ele-
mentary MeteOrology." says: THE control
OF the weather by the moon or the planets
still occasionally finds enough believers to
support the publication OF elaborate long
range weather predictions. As these are
couched I'm general languag and intended
TO be applicable to large areas OF the cOun-
try IL is not at all difficult TO gather a
number OF Notifications for them; but they
are no better than the forgotten predic-
tions OF astrology OF centuries ago"

H. R. h. & n. Co.

At the meeting OF the stockholders Of
the Hood River Boom and Transporta-
tion Co., held Tuesday, the following
board Of directors was elected to serve
for the ensuing year; G. A. Bell, Geo.
p. Crowell, r. s. Davidson, Geo I.
Prather and j. E. Rand. The secretary
and treasurer's reports showed the com
pany to be in good shape. II is indebt,
but the big dam on the East Fork Of
Hood river and the boom at the mouth
Of the river are now in shape to earn
money for the company, and when the
delinquent assessments are paid up,
there will be money enough to meet all
debts. 1t is hoped delinquent subscrib-
ers to the stock OF the company will see
their way clear to pay the assessments
now due. The real estate owned by the
company is valuable. The Lost Lake
Lumber Co which took half the stock
in the Boom company, and 2. 5. David
son are the largest creditors, but they
do not ask for immediate payment Of
their claims. The Lost Lake Lumber
Co. will take their pay in the use Of the
dam and boom for getting logs. The
saw mill company, of course, receives or
will receive the greatest benefit from the
Boom company, but as one Of the stock
holders expressed it, he would double
his investment for stock in the Boom
company rather than have the saw mill
move away.

Thanksgiving Donations.

In response to the circular mailed
from the county superintendent's Office
few days prior to Thanksgiving day,
the public schoolshave donated literally
to the support Of the Boys and Girls Aid
society OF Portland. The Hood River
Transfer and Livery Co carried to the
D. P. and A. n Co s landing all dona-
tions free of charge for transfer as freight.
The Hood River schools sent one box
of apples, one sack Of cabbage, two cases
canned goods, one sack potatoes, dried
fruit, bundle clothing, and 80 cents cash.
Besides what the Hood River school
contributed, there was sent last Tuesday
from Pine Grove school, four sacks OF
potatoes, one Of beans, one Of dried
prunes, one Of cabbage, one box Of APP
apples, one box OF canned fruit, etc.
From the Crapper school, one sack OF
dried prunes, one package clothing, two
glasses OF jelly and $125 in cash.
The Dalles school and Boyd school
sent liberal donations, and the institu-
ton had a man there to receive and
ship these and other donations.
When it is more fully realized what
an auxiliary this Institution is to the
public schools and society in general,
the aid for it will be even more liberal
until such time as the state will more
materially support 1t.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER l3, 1901.

A correspondent Of the 0regonian who
visited the Pajaro valley apple-growlng
section in California thinks it no better
than the Willamette valley for the grow
ing Of apples. Apple land in the Pajaro
valley sells for $500 an acre, while in the
Willamette valley it can be bought for
$50 an acre. Red apples are not sue
cess in the Pajaro valley They grow
the Yellow Bellhower and Yellow New
town Pippin, which are shipped in inn
mense quantities to the Eastern and
European markets. Their crop this
year will reach million and quarter
boxes. The Willamette valley, like
Hood River, has better transportation
facilities and with the same care and at
tention to selecting orchard ground, there
should be more money in growing APP
pies in Oregon than in the noted Pajaro
valley OF California.

Plant Rose Bushes

Fred V. Holman, a well known attor-
ney of Portland, in last Sundays Ore
gonian, had lengthy article on roses,
in which he gave instructions for their
culture and suggests that everybody in
the city plant rose bushes nextspringand
prepare surprise for the thousands OF
Fasteners that will attend the Lewis
and Clark centennial in 1905. This is a
happy thought in time, and the sug-
gestion will be acted upon by others in
other towns in tbs Northwest. Mr.. Hol-
mans suggestion will no doubt be acted
upon by Portland people and Portland
will be known as the "Rose City"
Hood River can come in on this fose
planting scheme. We have the lawns
and the water to irrigate them, and all
can be made a thing of beauty by pro-
fusely decorating them, like some few
have done in the past, with the choicest
of rose bushes. Let Hood River begin
now to plant rose bushes for 1905.

Bright Outlook for Strawberry Crop
G. J. Gessling, Secretary OF the Hood
River Fruit Growers Union, returned
from his Eastern trip Monday morning,
having been gone four weeks. On his
way East ne stopped off at Ogden, Salt
Lake, Denver, Lincoln, Omaha and
Council Bluffs and talked strawberries
and apples with the principal commits
sion men in those places and also with
retailers of Hood River fruit. On the
return trip he stopped over in the prin-
cipal towns along the line of the Great
Northern. At every place he stopped
commission men and retail dealers were
well acquainted with Hood River berries.
They wanted to know all about the
strawberry trust" we havein Hood
River. They said they had to pay more
for Hood River berries since the Crust"
controlled the output At every place
he stopped he was assured that more
Hood River berries than ever would be
wanted next year. Mr.. Gessling is sat
isfied from what he learned on his trip
that there will be good demand for our
strawberry crop at good prices next
year. He found that personal inter
view with the men who buy our fruit
was much more satisfactory than cores
pondence by letter. In Chicago, st.
Paul and Minneapolis he found good
markets for apples, and posted himself
with regard to shipping apples nextyear,
when Hood River may expect to have
a full crop.
