Mascot Makes Good Sale

After making the rounds of the book
stores the first of the week and check
ing up on the number of Mascots yet
on hand, John Allen, editor and bust
ness manager of the high school publ
cation, expressed himself as gratfied
by the sale of the publication. All but
about SO Of the magazines have been
sold. In order to get rid of the re-
mainder, so that the printing bills may
be pail up soon, the price has been
lowerd to 25 cents.
''lt is not good business to have two
prices on commodity" said Allen in
speaking of the lowering of the price
on the magazine, "yet it is better to
get rid of them at that price, by plac-
ing them in with the remnants, than
not to sell them at all and eventually
have to burn them.
The price will remain at 25 cents till
July !, after which the remainder will
be kept on sale at 35 cents.

Subscription. SI.5O Per Year.
GLACIER 26 YEARS OLD

Last Thursday the Hood River Gla-
cier celebrated its 26th birthday A
quarter Of century and a year ago
the paper was launched by Geo. T.
Prather. John II. CradebauRh, whose
brilliant word building and whose pO-
ems Of sweet and tender sentiment
have made him known to newspaper
men over the northwest. then took the
helm and guided the destinies of the
Glacier until the paper was purchased
by S. F. Blythe, from whom the pres
ent owner, A. d. Moe, purchased It.
Mr.. CradlebauRh is now in Salem. still
writing editorials and articles that
cause people to take notice. f. N.
Blythe, who was associated with his
father in the publication Of the paper,
is in newspaper work in Portland, hav-
ing for a number of years been North
west editor of the Oregonian.
The Glacier has become a factor in
Hood River life. 1t has been the aim
of its publisher to make 1t respected
and influential factor. Its columns
have ever been used TO promote the
interest and welfare of the community (;
to unite the efforts Of rancher and
business man; in fact, all branch
es of community life, 1t has never
criticised wantonly. Criticisms are
sometimes necessary, but they have
been written in spirit of good faith,
and the stings they may have inflicted
were for the best interest of the com
munity as we have seen it.
The policies of the Glacier have been
constructive. We have never sought to
tear down, but to build up.
From week to week and from year to
year. the records of local events have
been recorded. The file of the Glacier
is of great historical data to the COM
munity.
In closing this little retrospective
chat with ourselves and our readers we
wish to quote from recent address of
Ex-Governor Francis, of Missouri:
Each year the local paper gives
from $500 to $1,000 in free lines to the
community in which IL is located. No
other agency can or will do this. The
editor in proportion to his means, does
more for his town than any other ten
men, and in fairness he ought to be
supported; not beause you like him or
admire his writings, but just simply
because the local paper is the best in
vestment community can make. 1t
may not be brilliantly edited or crowd
ed with thought, but financially it is
of more benefit to the community than
the preacher or teacher. Understand
me, do not mean mentally, and yet
on moral questions you will find most
of the papers on the right side. Today
the editors of the local papers do the
most for the least money of any people
on earth"

OPEN AIR THEATRES

In a recent bulletin, the University
of Oregon calls attention to the cheap
ness with which an open air theatre
may be constructed. Such places of
assemblage may be used throughout
the summer and fall months without
fear of bad weather. The city of Eu-
gene has constructed such a theatre at
SINNERS Butte, municipal park.
Ellis F. Lawrence, director of the uni
versity school of architecture, who
owns local ranch, will arrange a
stage after the manner of a formal
French garden of the Lotus XIV per-
iod.
Hood River worked out the open air
theatre year ago. One of the most
convenient and prettily arranged audi
forums in the west may be found in
the city park, just west of the BlOunt
and Earl Franz homes, and the people
have begun to learn how to appreciate
it. But for the open air theatre, the
plays that have been so SUCCESSFULLY
given there by amateur talent, would
have fallen rather fiat. 1t would have
detraced greatly from these events, had
il been necessary to have presented
them in the stuffiness of an indoor hall.
The open air theatre is something of
which we should be proud and which
we should enjoy.

FREE TRIP TO FAIR
Is MADE POSSIBLE

Through the combined efforts of a
number Of representative Hood River
merchants, a free trip to the Panama
Pacific international exposition will be
given the winner of voting contest
that will be inaugurated today. All
who have been to San Francisco extol
the educative value to be derived from
an inspection of the exhibits from the
four corners of the world, and the con-
test will no doubt result in keen com
petition.
The local newspapers, the Glacier
and the News, will be used as mediums
of announcement by the merchants
participating in the campaign, and
thes publications. will have charge of the
votes that will be given for sales tick
cts or receipts. The sales tickets or
receipts may at any time after today
be presented at the Glacier or News
office for redemption in votes The
contest will run for three months.
The plan adopted fore giving the
trip does not require the contestant to
sell anything. The only thing neces-
sary to secure the votes being to patro-
nize some of Hood Rivers popular
stores. The advertisements of these
firms will be run on alternate weeks in
the Glacier and News. These firms
have agreed to give a sales check or re-
ceipt TO every purchaser for cash or for
monthly bills paid until September lst.

A MUSICAL ATMOSPHERE

There is a musical atmosphere at
Hood River that is being noted all up
and down the Pacific coast. As re-
suit of the interest that has been
shown in the past four or five years,
local singers from their participation
in amateur recitals and operas, have
derived much benefit, and the public as
whole much enjoyment.
The musical atmosphere has been
built up around nucleus Of musicians
and singers, whose fame extends to the
four corners of the United States and
who were attracted to Hood River be-
cause of the scenic beauties and the
lure of apple culture. The instruction
they have given local'amateurs in the
preparation for performances that have
been given in the city and at Lava Bed
park in the UpperlValley have been of
the greatest value. In the arger cities
such instruction would cost no small
sum. The lessons that singers have
learned in the chorus work of The
Chimes Of Normandy, and that they
will get from The Bohemian Girl,
should be appreciated by those who are
fortunate enough to be able to take
part. From this work we expect to see
greater interest in the future. ]. A.
Epping and Otto 7. Wedemeyer are
artists in their line, and to them must
go much of the praise for past and fu.
ture accomplishments.
No less a master of the subject of
music is Rev. A. S. Donat, whose drill

OUR GOOD ROADS

Hood River has some mighty good
roads now, as anybody who has recent
ly been over them in an automobile
will attest. And the best roads are
those that have cost ino large amount
of money for original construction.
The high priced macadam of the East
and West Sides is disintegrating, while
the sand clay roads of the Oak Grove
and Belmont districts are in excellent
condition. The repair of the former
will cost a lot of money, while the lat
ter roads may be rebuilt at compare
lively small expense.
Time and experience are the best
teachers. From what may be observed
over the county Hood River should
build more sand clay or gravel roads.
1t is not necessary in Hood River
county to vote huge. and burdensome
bond issue. just use common sense in
the construction of our valley highways
with the material at hand.
But gravel roads cannot be built any
old way. The foundation must be
graded properly, and the surface must
be covered with an equal thickness of
gravel. Then ruts and bumps are
eliminated. The road boss must keep
on a constant watchout for deteriora-
tion, and make repair as soon as any
portion of the road is beginning to
wear out.
Murray Kay's article of last week
will be read with interest by all who
have travelled over the valley roads
this year, and his recommendations
will be largely approved.

Sometimes we hear the Serpentine
road spoken of-not often. 1t seems to
be considered a relic of the past. But
very few have ever travelled its sinu-
Gus ways to the Heights. 1t sounds
nice and so sometimes we use it in our
conversation. But did you know that
one of the best grades to the top of the
Heights may be had over the Serpen-
tine way? Do you know that it is one
of the prettiest drives in town. Some
of these days were are going to dis
cover this driveway, and it will be
made a real asset of the city.

Not since Hood River won the sweep
stakes prize at the Spokane National
Apple show in 1910 has such comment
and interest been aroused as was evil
denced last week, when news of the
gold medal award at San Francisco was
made known to the Hood River apple
and strawberry growers. With straw.
berries selling for two cart wheels and
more per crate, and Oregon beating the
world horticulturally, the hearts of To-
cal growers are caused to beat to the
measures of former days, when orch
ards were being set out by the hundreds
of acres.

Swimming Pool Fate in Balance

Because of lack of financial aid the
swimming pool fate is in the balance.
One of three alternatives may now by
followed according to the members Of
the committee that had charge of pro-
noting the campaign-A smaller pool
than planned may be constructed with
the fund of 500 available, the city
council may make up the balance of
$500 and proceed with the work, or
the matter may be dropped entirely,
money collected being refunded to sub
scribers.
The former plan seems to have much
favor
