TRIBUTE PAID
TO MRS. SMITH

The following tribute to the memory
of Mr. f. l.. Smith appeared in Tues
days issue of the Oregonian:
The closing of all the shops and a
general suspension of business last
Tuesday, day of the funeral, was only
the outward and visible sign of the
sorrow of the entire Hood River COM
munity at the death, December TO- of
Mrs. Georgiana S. Smith. beloved wife
of E. l.. Smith, of this city.
The writer treasures memories Of
Mrs. Smith reaching through the past
33 years, first on the farm near Phelps
Creek, at what is now known as Frank
ton, then in the town of Hood River,
for while at Beulah Land Orchard
and then during recent years in the
town again. She was devoted wife
and mother. Always interested in the
affairs of community. church and
Nation, she was equally concerned for
individuals, her friends evTy where,
young men who frequently sought her
counsel, the boys and girls of the COM
munity. the sick and the poor, and all
whom she could help in any way. With
full share of life's anxieties and sor-
rows, she knew also its greatest joys
and satisfactions. Her good deeds,
remembered and forgotten, recorded
and unrecorded, rise to call her blessed,
and her passing leaves both empty and
full the hearts of all who knew and
loved her. w. G. E., Jr.

School Notes.
BY E. E. Coad.

The city schools will close for the
holidays next Friday and begin work
again on Tuesday, January 2.
An epidemic of colds, somewhat sim
liar to la grippe, is responsible for
many absences from school during the
last two weeks. Several of the teach
ers have not proved immune from
attack Miss Howard, Principal of
the Park Street building, suffered the
most severe attack ana was compelled
to give up her work for several days.
Miss Leila Hershner took charge of
her grade during her absence.
Mr.. Brayman, the eighth grade boys
teacher, has resigned his position in
order to enter business with his father
He left for his home in Topeka, Kan
sas, last Sunday evening. His posi-
tion is filled by MIR. Samuel Adler, a
graduate of Cornell University. Mr..
Adler was an instructor in the Sturgis
Preparatory School of Ithaca, N Y,
for some time and also in Cornell in
the History department for one year.
Mr.. Adler gave up his work in the
East to come West and grow up with
the country. He. is well prepared for
work and | am sure will prove his
worth as a teacher.
The furnace in the Pleasant View
building having served the entire
period of its usefulness is to be re-
placed by modern plant during the
holidays. The W. G. Mcpherson Co.,
of Portland, are to install the heating
and ventilating system which is to be
similar to that in use in the other
buildings.
