Commercial Club Session.

There was a called meeting o
the Commercial club Friday even
ing at which there were visitor,
from University Park, Piedmont
and other points on the peninsula
The object Of the meeting was tc
take some action in reference tc
securing free ferry for the city.
The committees from the other
points OH the peninsula sought q
union OF forces by means of a gen.
eral executive committee composed
Of delegates from all the organiza.
tons on the peninsula, viz: the
Co rmercial club at St. Johns,
board of trade, University Park,
Nolta club Of Piedmont, the PENN.
sula Improvement society and a
fifth organization to be formed at
Arbor Lodge.
The immediate objects these or
CARNATIONS have in view Is the
improvement Of the streets, better
car service and the free ferry at St.
Johns. In this last improvement
the sections covered by these organ
izations are as deeply interested as
are our own citizens.
a petition was framed to be pre-.
sented to the city council asking
that body to take the matter up
also.
The meeting appointed Mr.. Per-
kins secretary to represent the club
at the meetings OF the other bodies
until the next regular meeting Of
the organization when the regular
delegate willlbe elected.
There Is no doubt that this exec
utive committee will prove very
benehcial-to the peninsula. The
interests Of the different sections of
the entire peninsula are identical
and by thus combining their forces
will be able to accomplish a great
deal more than either section could
10 singly.

Joe Wilson Sees st. Johns.

One OF oar old tillicams, Joseph

II there is anyone we would rather
see than somebody else it is some
OF the old boys from the apple city
who labored long and hard to save
the country with us in that neck

none more welcome than Joe. Joe
is pioneer in Hood River having
made that his home for a quarter
OF a century and seen that section
develop from the abode of the

within the past three or four years
from an Insignificant little useless
stream running through the south
east corner OF the city to a water
system for power and household

When Joe started this work his

Our Free Library

Miss Fox, county superintendent
for the library association, was II
the city Wednesday aud gave thi
Office a pleasant little visit. Mis-
Fox is most interesting and Ell
thusiastic worker for the library
and is especially interested in tn,
library here at St. Johns. She say,
that any one who has a card her,
can take the card with them to tn,
home library IN Portland aud ge
any book on their shelves, th,
same rs IL they were residents IL
Portland, and that any book the,
request from the library that !,
issued to their members there ma,
be obtained on the cards held her,
as soon as the book can be sent out
Every Tuesday q new supply ol
books is sent out aud old book.
from the shelves here are returned.
This exchange Of books is increased
as the use OF the books grows
here. II we would have a larger
supply of books on hand here we
must make a larger use of the
books per week.
The impression seems to have
been gaining ground that this libra
~ is an old womans scheme and
that Il is not patronized except by
women folk aud few decrepit old
men who have not the means TO
buy books, or are too penurious to
do so; but such is not the case.
Some of the best educated men in
the city of Portland watch this
library and refer to its new books
on all the sciences aud arts to keep
in touch with the latest develop
ments. In fact the best patrons OF
tie library are among the best edu-
Gated and brightest minds of the
country. Behind the management
OF the library are some of the
strongest men we have in the coun-
try. So that, instead of being the
work of decrepit old men and lot
ot old women, Il is the work aud
the cherished work of the brightest
and best of our people both male
aud female, and among these are
some OF the oldest and most hon.
ored men and women of our city
aud state. The library is doing
great work in the dissemination of
knowledge and could do one hun
ired fold more good ii our people
would but take advantage OF this
'ne of the best opportunities ever
presented for gaining knowledge |

K. Of p. Surprised.

Last Friday evening there wa.
third rank work in Holmes lodge
X. of p. and after the degree work
an alarm at the door indicated some
one desired admittance. Chancel.
lor Commander Black declared q
recess and the door was opened,
when in walked I3 ghosts and
three little cherub ghosts who
marched around the hall to slow
music. Not an individual was rec.
ognizable because of the mask over
their faces and they had ears to
their hoods like unto those of the
trotting horse Balaam rode in bible
times when he met the angel.
While they were ghostly In APP
pearance they were angelic in be-
havior, and were greeted with de-
light with the exception of the
Master at Arms Unger, who ap-
peared undecided whether to en-
brace them or place them under
arrest, and halting under the two
emotions he was unable to do any
thing until they were seated when
he saluted aud retired.
The lovely creatures had provid-
ed delicious refreshments in the
shape Of as many different kinds Of
sandwiches as Heinze makes pickles
almost, besides regular army coffee
and fine cookies. These seasoned
with the pleasant chatter of the
fair visitors made the time pass so
swiftly that within what seemed
few minutes IL was II o'clock and
to the regret Of all the cruel chan
cellor commander ordered the hall
cleared Of all but members Of the
order aud with many longing ling
,ring glances, our gentle visitors
departed cheered with a vote Of
thanks and an invitation to come
again uproariously given by the
,ntire membership present.
II was a most delightful occasion
Ind the knights will be most happy
o receive visit from sisters when
'ver they can find it convenient.

Sunday, January 20, 1908, 7. j.
Losey and Mrs. c. A. Sparschuh.
Mrs. Losey sprang a big sur.
prise on her many friends here when
the fact was announced that she
had again taken a partner for bet
ter or worse. No one was aware
that she was considering such a
step, and the surprise was all the
more complete. Mrs. Losey is
proprietress of the Home Bakery
and through her skill in the baking
art has built up and now enjoys
the leading bakery business Of this
city.
The groom is recent arrival
from Topeka. Kansas, where he has
been engaged in the bakery busi-
ness, also. He Is a thorough busi-
ness man, and It is the intention of
the newly mated pair to combine
their forces and enlarge their bust
ness here
The Review joins in wishing Mrs.
Losey aud her newly acquired
helpmate the best Of good things
through all their days.

Editor Review:-In reply to the
editorial of last week headed,
"Who is at faultP'' will say | did
not intend the few remarks I made
at last week council meeting any
roast for our worthy editor, but
will say I meant what I said. Now
If any sane man can show me
where any of the city officials or
city laws are to blame for the con-
duct INDUCED in by three or four
of our Point View boys two weeks
ago Sunday in breaking into three
or four residences in that locality
and helping themselves to what
they wanted, will lay down. |
believe I have put myself OIL record
as to having the welfare of our
boys at heart, by vetoing the ordi-
nance that passed the council last
fall changing the age limit from
eighteen to sixteen years, to enter
pool rooms and when this proposed
ordinance passed the council and
was generally supposed to have
become a law, our worthy editor
put his stamp Of approval on it
believing 1t to be a good change.
My position in reg ird to the skat-
ing rink and pool room ordinance
that has been before the council for
so long is this; if the skating rink
and pool rooms are such hell holes
as our worthy editor claims for
them they should be put out of
business entirely. II is not reason
able in my mind to suppose that
our boys and girls can go to these
places of amusement for six days
and nights and no harm befall them
and then on that particular day
referred to by the proposed ordi-
nance commonly called Sunday,
they are all brought to ruin and
shame.
Therefore, If these places Of
amusement are menace and a
public nuisance, they should be
shut up.
However, | will say this, IL the
council passes the proposed ordi.
nance, / will not veto II but would
suggest that the Portland council
be presented with a petition asking
them to pass an ordinance not
allowing any Of the St. Johns boys
or girls in the pool rooms or skat.
ing rinks on Sunday.
Respectfully yours,
X. {. Couch.

in the city charter which specific
ally provides for this work the
mayor believed the exigencies OF
the case justified the action. and
we believe every citizen of the
town will agree with him. Captain
Bredeson suggested that there was
in the city enough timber in the
shape OF trees which obstructed the
view in the streets and which were
a detriment to the streets and
should come out, to give consider
able employment to these men.
Engineer Edwards said there were
enough OF such trees to make 500
cords of wood.
On motion of Dobie il was de-
cided to give employment to the
idle men residents of ST. Johns,
heads of families receiving prefer
ence, under tine supervision Of the
city engineer and Capt. Bredeson,
in cutting wood, cleaning streets
and such other work as may be
necessary.
The fountain was reported on
hands ready for installation aud ON
motion of Dobie it was ordered
installed under the supervision of
the city engineer. Alderman Leg.
gett reported that there was still
in the fountain fund a considerable
amount which those in charge
wished to expend in putting up a |
fountain for horses at |
some convenient point. and the
balance in assisting in the estab-
lishment of the fountain in front of
the city hall and beautifying it.

much better to give them employ

St. Johns will soon have one of the
best things that has ever come to

certain, and that is, our people
should have definite statement
from the commissioners that they
will operate the ferry before that
boat is purchased by the city.
Otherwise there would be an ele-
phant on our hands. The city
cannot afford for several years to
operate this ferry alone. The free
ferry will be a great good to the
county. II will be of as much ben
eft to the county in getting crushed
rock from the crusher across the
river as IL will be a convenience
aud benefit to Our people, therefore
we think the commissioners will be
