THE NATIONS BIRTHDAY

The world over in every land the
citizens of the United States will cele-
brRte the nations birthday today.
Here at home in almost every city and
hamlet in every state. men, women,
boys and girls will participate in the
celebration of the signing of the
declaration of Independence. In but
few of the cities today does the old
time celebration of the Fourth prevail,
when the youth thought the day had
not been fully put in, unless he had
burned out portion of an eye, shot of
a toe or mangled hand and next day
the toll of the dread disease, tetanus,
was read over the land.
Today instead of the shooting of fire
works the youngsters work off their
spontaneous outbursts and surplus
energy of youth in athletic sports and
the day is spent sanely.
In foreign lands the nations birth
day will be celebrated littingly at the
home 'of the country's embassies. In
London, Ambassador Reid will throw
wide the doors of the palatial Dor
chester house and from 1000 to 5000
Americans will pass through TO accept
the Ambassadors hospitality and take
refreshment on the big lawn of the
place.
Paris, il is said, enters into the
spirit of our Fourth more than any
other city of Europe Her streets
fairly bristle with American flags on
that date and the big hotels arrange
special souvenir menus and musical
programs commemorative of the ami
versary. The japanese like the French
join enthusiastically in the lndepen-
dence day spirit The Fourth Of July
celebration in Yokohama has become
an annual event of much gayety.
Today for the first time the new
official flag, with its 4S stars will be
raised and will haunt in the wind
The new stars that will appear on the
field of blue will represent the new
states of New Mexico and Arizona.
These two states have been born since
the last Fourth of July, but the stars
have never been added 10 the flag, this
never being done until the first ma
tion's birthday after the territory re-
ceives statehood.

THE NHOOL CONTESTS

We have not heard much recently
about the contests Of the children, who
are raising agricultural. horticultural
and garden products to exhibit at the
School fair here on Saturday, Septem-
ber IA. When the School fair was
announced a great deal of interest was
manifested and the fairs bade fair to
De successful. The merchants of the
city co-operated with the committee in
charge of the affair and contributed
literally to a fund from which to give
handsome premiums to the winners in
the contest.
IL the school teachers, parents and
children, themselves, have done their
part, the fair will be successful and
beneficial IN many ways to the com
munity. It will create in the young
ster an interest TO love the labor of
making things grow from the soil, to
grow in such a way as to be most pro-
ductive, and another producer Of
foodstuffs will be added to the lists
that in recent years has been decreas-
ing with frightful rapidity. Too many
people get the call of the country
today after having first had the call of
the city, when they were youths on the
farm. They have spent youth and the
..-s... - re- -, fbo "a vim yptc of fftipg
and yet, even though he or she is city
born, there comes day-the man or
woman gets tired Of the strain of bus
mess world and catch the smell of new
mown hay, seen in the dreams of the
country, the sparkle of the dewdrops IN
the early morning, hear the songs OF
birds in the meadow and whiH the
mouldy smell Of the newly turned
earth. If the man was born in the
country, the call is irresistible.
Health, happiness and wealth awaits
the man who tolls in the country scien-
tifically and earnestly. The School
fairs, instituted by the State Bankers
Association and fostered by the Oregon
Agricultural College are for the pur-
pose of causing the youth of the state
to realize this. Until recent report
at the Bankers convention at Gear
heart, but few knew of the magnitude
the work is assuming. Think of it,
rs, 600 children throughout the state
are actively interested in the contests
to be held this fall. Hood River chill
dren are included in this. All of them
should be. They would find it would
make pleasant task and be the means
of acquiring useful knowledge.
Indeed, Hood River is handicapped
in that the ruling industry here is the
growing of apples. But this is all the
more reason why the children should
be taught the growing of gardens.
Surely, 1t would be well if more of
the parents knew the value of patch
of ground devoted to the raising of
good garden product. Every rancher
ought to raise his own potatoes and
the small vegetables Of which we are
so fond in the summer months, as well
as feed for his livestock.

CLUB MAY OCCUPY
TELEPHONE BUILDING

The University Club may occupy the
second aud third stories Of the hand
some new building to be erected by the
Home Telephone Co., at the corner Of
Sixth and State streets on the property
formerly owned by DR.. j. f. Watt.
The telephone company has two pro-
posed plans under consideration, one for
erecting a three story building and the
other with designs for a two story
building. In case the three story build
ing is erected the club will be expected
to take the third story as sleeping
quarters ard the second as club rooms.
The Board of Governors of the club.
Frank f. Deem, president, Truman
Butler, Asa b. Cutler, Rea Babson,
Ernest c. Smith and Joe ID. Thomson,
J. +. Montgomery, will consider the
matter the latter part Of the week'and
get plans in shape to present to the
clubs members.
The new building, the excavation
work of which began Monday morning,
will be of handsome architecture. The
designs have been drawn by X. X.
Bartlett. 1t will be of brick.
The new telephone apparatus which
the company installs, with the building,
will represent an investment of about
$40, 600. Chas. Hall. president Of the
company, has been in Indiana and Ohio
for the past several weeks Investigate
ing the auto-maual equipment, whicl
is said to be the latest thing in tele
phone apparatus. The installation Of
1.-THE new apparatus will greatly increase
he efficiency of the local eXchang,
and make it among the four Ieadinl
systems of the country.
Already, for the number of the popu
lation using telephones, Hood River
county leads the world. The percent
age of the population subscribing tC
phone systems ranges around 10 pen
cent, while here about 20 per cent OF
the total population suUscribes to the
service. Practically the entire popula
tion makes use Of the phones.

A SMALL PHILOSOPHER.


He Let His Mother Worry About Los.
ing Him.
A WOMAN leading a small boy
IA boarded westbound car In the
east end and. finding the seats
nearly all occupied told the boy TO
take one near the front of the car,
while She sat nearer the rear door
He was stout boy Of about ten,
with large white face and pale blue
eyes.
The mother must have forgotten that
the boy was with her for at the corner
Of East Ninth street she suddenly
arose aud hurriedly left the car.
When the car halted in the square
the conductor went In and spoke to
the boy.
Guess your mother forgot you, bub,
didn't she?'
The boy calmly looked around at the
empty seats. If the conductor expect
ed an outburst of grief he was disap-
pointed.
That's all right" he said "She
won't git far got all her money in

Fins, Furs, and Feathers.

Porcupines are growing scarce in the
Hood River, Valley. but the grandfather
of the local tribe evaded captivity and
slaughter until one.day last week, when
Jno. w. Hiurichs caught the 2l pound
oldboy in trap on his ranch. The
gentleman of quilts was led to disaster
by too great love for green peas.
Mr.. Hinrichs says that his garden was
kept cleanly eaten. He set the trap
with the result that Grandaddy
"Porky" was caught and executed for
the crime of theft. The brute was one
of the largest ever known to have beer
killed here. Porcupnes are the dread
of all dogs. The canine doesn't have
to seize the brute to make pincuslor
of himself for the little animal by
swift movements of its tail can hur
his quilts with as much deXterity as q
skilled archer using his bow and arrow.

SWAT THE FLY.

Investigations of scientists and medi-
cine men have determined that flies
were not made at the suggestion of
Satan to cause baldheaded men to
swear 1t doesn't make any difference
what they were made for, these same
men of medicine and science have found
that they are one of mans worst men
aces. The little, seemingly harmless,
buzzing rascal that comes buzzing
around our heads, when we attempt to
take an afternoon nap is really child
born of filth. Flies breed in manure
heaps and thrive on garbage. They
disseminate disease germs as much. or

"Our office has been flooded witt
small packages of cherries, during the

Lucas. However. we have to throw
all these packages out. The ruling OF
the government does not allow cher.

are often mashed in transit and the
juice running over other matter spoils
it. "
