THE PEOP1
Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel Cochran re-
turned last Saturday from an extended
trip to Iowa and California. They left
here October IL, stopped couple Of
weeks in Grande Ronde valley, then
went to Iowa, visiting different parts OF
the state, and December 26 left Iowa for
California, where they visited a son at
Camp Angel. Mr.. Cochran says he
suffered more from cold in California
than he did in Iowa. In California peo-
pie haye no heating stoves, and when
the cool, damp weather comes they
shiver without fires. In Iowa, same as
in Hood River, people prepare for cold
weather.
G. J. Gessling had his head in sling
when he took his seat in the council
meeting Monday night as the new mem
ber from the third ward. 1t was feared
by some Of his friends that he had met
the enemy and come out second best,
while others wondered how the other
fellow looked. But it seems that he un-
dertook to cut his hair with an ak. He
was chopping wood, when the ak came
in contact with limb overhead and in
rebounding the ak struck Mr.. Gessling
on the head, making scalp wound
that might have been serious but only
caused the loss Of little superfuous
blood.
