FIRE MARSHALL'S
TALK EDUCATIONAL

Just one criticism can be directed
against the fire prevention rally held
last Thursday evening at the Gem the
atre. Ii was not heard by enough
Hood River people. The talk given by
Fire Marshal Jay Stevens, OF Portland.
was of an inestimable worth. Follow
ing talks given by A. e. Long. presi-
dent of the newly organized Associa-
tion of Oregon Volunteer Fire Depart
ments, and L. G. Holden, battalion
chief of the Portland Fire Department,
Marshal Stevens told of the success
the city of Portland had met with in
preventing fires through careful study
on the part of its fire bureau and an
educational campaign. He declared
that so per cent of the loss from fire
was caused from blszes set by incendi-
aries and the other so per cent from
carelessness.
Marshal Long told of the great per
capita fire loss of America as compared
with that of European countries before
the great war. He declared that the
average citizen was thoughtless and
did not pay enough attention to possi-
BILE methods of preventing fires. His
talk was accompanied by stereopticon
slide illustrations. Before and after
the talks thousands of feet of moving
pictures of great fires were shown.
Chief Holden, who for the past 29
years has been a member of the Port
land fire department, and Mr.. Long de-
voted their talks to an effort to en-
courage an interest in the local dt part
ment. MIR. Long stated that members
of small city fire departments displayed
more public spirit than any other citi-
zens in the community.
The meeting, free to the public. was
presided over by Fire Chief Morgan.
The visiting officials came here by
automobile over the Highway. They
we're met west of town by battery of
automobiles. occupied by members of
the local department, members Of the
city council and large number of citi-
zens. The meeting was given under
the joint auspices of the fire depart
ment and the city council. Capt. W.
A. Groce, of the Portland Arson squad,
was also here for the meeting.

VINEGAR FACTORY
ADDS EQUIPMENT

The Hood River Apple Vinegar Co.,
three big hydraulic presses having
been added to the battery of two press
es that have squeezed the juice out of
the apples of former Gull crops of the
valley, is prepared to take care of the
poor quality of fruit of growers of the
district this season, when the harvest
will be almost so per cent larger than
last season. The vinegar factory, which
turns part Of its annual crush into
sweet :cider, for which great demand
has been. created, has already begun to
grind this years fruit.
A price of Sc per ton is being paid
for Gull apples, orchard run. Where
the best fruit is picked from thesculls
for cooking stock, leaving imperfect
apples, core rot and imperfect shapes,
the price of only $ per ton is paid.

ODELL SCHOOL NOTES
Mark E. Moe

Last year Odell high school gradu-
ated its first senior class. For several
years they have maintained the first
two grades of high school. Last year
union high school was formed and
proved successful. So much so that
the Odell district voted $4,000 bonds
for a permanent high school building.
The building will be on the bungalow
style, will have one large assembly
room, several recitation rooms, do
mestlc science department, the princi-
pals office and an auditorium capable
Of seating 300 people. The building
will be ready for occupancy about De-
cember !.
At present there are IS students en-
rolled in the high school. Of these IL
are freshment, IL sophomores, six jun
forms, four seniors and one post grad
uate. More students are expected to-
enter school after the apple harvest.
The first meeting of the literary So
ciety will held be tonight at the high
school. The society meets hereafter
every other Thursday. Last week the
following literary officers were elected:
Will Haskins, pres. Loyal Rhoades,
vice pres; Bob Clark, sec. Claude
Davidson, treas, and Peggy English
and Prof. Mccoy program committee.
Since football is never played at
Odell basketball is the predominating
sport from the time school opens until
spring. Will Haskins is captain of the
boys varsity basketball team; Peggy
English. of the girls team. Wallace
May is captain of the boys second
team. Haskins, last years star play
er, will undoubtedly lead the team to
another successful year.
From news lately waited across the
campus. it appears that Clare Hale,
H. R. H. s. star of last year. with his
brother, Roy, has moved out into this
neck of the woods and will soon enter
school. Although Myers and Cutler, of
last years team have not yet returned,
their promises are secured. With the
enthusiasm that is being aroused, bas-
ketball practice will soon be begun for
one of the most successful years in the
history of the Union high school.

Yeon Sees improvement Necessity

"a great improvement in the condi-
tion of the Columbia river highway
could be made by Hood River county
with the expenditure of small amount
of money!" said Roadmaster Yeon, of
Multnomah county. Saturday, accord
ing to the Portland Journal. "By
spending few hundred dollars in TAX
ing out loose rocks and smoothing down
ruts the road could be put in fair con-
dition and the worst section between
Portland and The Dalles eliminated.
Wasco county has done good work in
improving the Mosier hill and it is now
up to Hood River county to do some
thing. A fence has been erected on
the lower side of the grade, giving an
air of safety and the grade has been
widened out, passing places being pro-
ivided -

recognition from his neighbors this
year for his abilities as a corn grower.
Some of the best ears of corn seen in
the city this year were exhibited Sat-

seed was secured by Sheriff johnson
from the O.-W. R. & N. Co., which
distributed large quantities among To-
cal orchardists last spring free of

sanely assert that the schools will not suffer? Is there, also, a man or wom- an who can tell the oyer-taxed citi- zens of Fairbanks where the money is coming from to make up this new ly-created deficiency? Is there a man or woman who can sanely argue that without the money to pay the way of the schools the schools will keep right on going, in the same old way, in- definitely? There is just one school of the United tSates that We know of which can do this, and that Is John Burns college in the mountains of the south. He is surrounded by a bunch of teachers who are of his nature of manhood and womanhoOd; who realize the need of education in those feudist mountains and who are willing to starye to death, if neces- sary, to keep up the good work. The professors in that college never re- ceive more than $l4 month salary, and most of the time they are not paid that-the president of the coI- lege will take no more than $14 month for his services. Once in while some kindhearted person sends the college a check, and the professors eat that day. Where can we obtain a faculty of idealists who will teach the husky children of Alaska for $l4 month, and what kind of an Alaskan would an Alaska father be who would allow a $l4 teacher to handle the education of his children? Yet, what better could we do, with the entire amount of revenues which represent the cost of our schools taken away from us?
 Think up an answer to that, and let us have it. We would like to see way, but we cannot. Unless YOU can, it would be best for you to not work for decreased revenues for this city, if you have the interests of ed ucation and town protection at heart. Fairbanks News-NIiner, May II, 1916. Pd. Adv.

THEORY Vs. FACTS

As we have remarked before in these columns, the prohibitionists need only a high-sounding theory or near fact upon which to base their argu- ments, and because of the cause they are generally able to get by without challenge. A gift of gab, an apparent frankness and a cheerful directness frequently enable leader of reform" to "get by" with what in reality is very faulty thought or argument. An instance in point oc- cured on Tuesday night last at a meeting of what remains of the Civic Club:
 The principal speaker of the even ing was talking politics and prohibi- tion indiscriminately but profusely, and Delegate Wickersham of Alaska was given "his" by the speaker in un- measured stint. She frequently re- ferred to the "Pork Barrel" which most of the ladies present had evi- dently not heard of. Finally, one cur ious lady asked the question;
 What is this pork barrel?' I never heard of it." and the speaker of the evening explained:
 "Why Delegate Wickersham can get $5O,OOO out of the Congressional pork barrel to build a college on a sand lot out in the woods near town, but he won't get $5O,OOO to build a public school building in Fairbanks"
 There are actual count just 537 men in Congress, including the members of the Senate and the Delegates from the Territories who ar in the same fix as Delegate Wickersham regarding their ability to obtain from Congress money for schoolhouses in their municipali- ties, and Wickersham's number is "537." If money COULD be obtained from Congress for public schools in municipalities, there would be 537 ap- plications made for the same by mem bers of Congress, and after New York City, Philadelphia, Chicago, San Francisco and Seattle and other large municipalities had such schoOlhouses on every corner in the city and the re- naming members of Congress had re- ceived their share of such an impos- sible pork barrel, Alaska might get

1 a little red schoolhouse somewhere on Cowls street, but there is no possi- biIity of Congress ever taking over for the taxpayers of the United States such a gigantic potlach as would be the building of public school buildings for municipalities-the clti. zns of any town or city must do that work, at their own expense; always have had to and always will have to.
 This is not an exceptional misap- prehension which is promulgated and kept alive by agitators. Also, the fact that such a misapprehension of the government of the United States and the powers of a Congressman "got by" with most of the audience at Tuesdays meeting is not an eXcep- tional proposition. Theorists and agi- tators are making just as faulty state ments stand up" almost in every city and town in the United States, and that is why a misguided move ment and faulty theory must be treat ed seriously and opposed at the time, or harm may come to a community through ignorance and mistaken i'm pressions held by the best of people. It will probably be advanced that the United States government will make up any deficiencies in municipal eX- pense caused by prohibition in Alaska, but such a thought is as faulty as that the government can or will build city schools. Each municipality must pay it's own way Every man who has voice in the management of affairs in any community is taxed in some way or other to entitle him to that vote and voice. They may not pay the road or other tax, but it has already been assessed against them by the laws of the land and is due from them whether they eyade pay ment or not
