and their wives gave the faculty of
the academy and grades a delightful
sugar party in the domestic science
room Monday evening.
TRAINING CLASS NOTES
Every member of the training class
was present Tuesday, in spite of the
bad travelling. But this would not
have been so if some of the girls had
not shown great pluck and determina-
ton. One member walked eight miles
and three others were obliged to walk
quite a distance in order to reach the
village.
Here's to the boys of 81,
To those who were and are.
To those whose faces now / see
And to those who are afar.
A tender spot for those heroes
cherish in my heart.
For all around, brave fellows,
They surely played their part
Now to the boys of IT,
Their equal cannot be,
At home, at school
And on the field,
They are the lads for me.

CORRESPONDENT SAYS
FIRES TOO NUMEROUS
Hood River, June s.


Editor Glacier-Hood River has had
more than her share of fires during the
past week or so, and there is brought
home to us more than ever the need of
more care in preventing fire. The
trouble is usually traced to defective
flues, and this trouble is one of the
easiest to eliminate. We are not par
ticular about cleaning flues, relying in
stead on their burning out and in being
lucky enough not to have fire as a
result.
Unless the residents of Hood River
exert more pains and care in cleaning
flues and in otherwise preventing fires,
we are threatened with an increase of
insurance rates. 1t takes but little
effort to go on top of the house and
with a rock in sack clean the flues
nearly as thoroughly as if we paid to
have them swept. 1t also takes but
little effort to take down the stove
pipes twice year and clean them. We
must do this, we must rid ourselves of
this apathy toward fire prevention.
We are extremely fortunate in hav-
ing such good water force, and such a
fine lot of volunteer men in our fire
department, but surely our time will
come for confagration, because if
the fire starts in one or two districts in
town with a strong wind blowing, it is
doubtful if the department can stop it
before great damage is done.
Let every man of the family think
about his fues. Are they clear?
L. A. Henderson.

Great was the joy of their meeting.

A wood camp is going to be estab-

The dance given by Fosters proved
to be perfect success. Everyone had
splendid time. Everything was
danced, from an old time polka to the
late dance of the day. 1t was not till

thought of going home.

goes about. But if he is prouder than

saws, Here is another soldier for

Experiment Station Voted Down

Because of the general uncertainty
surrounding the sale of fruits during
the period of the war, the Hood River
County Court has voted down the prop
osition of IL acre tract on the West
Side to be used as a branch expert

Experiment Station.
The matter has been before the
court since the first of the year, when,
following an appeal from the orchard
lists of the valley, the sum of 81, 900
was appropriated from the years tax
returns as an initial payment on the
experimental tract.

at the favor tables were the hostesses

settled it cannot afford to SIT back and
neglect the changes that are going on
elsewhere in the work of conservation
of the senses, the speaker pointed out.
DIR. Rindlaubs statistics and recon-
mendations were based upon extensive
and most careful research by himself
and others who are experts on this sub
ject.
Mrs. c. B. Harris, of Pembina, told in
interesting detail of the Camp Fire Girl
movement, which corresponds to the
Boy Scouts movement. She traced the
former from it's origin, with Mr.. and
Mrs. Gulick, whose methods with their
own family are now so generally fol-
lowed all over the country, becoming
embodied in a national movement in
1911. Many prominent people are now
interested, and there is now national
magazine devoted to the Camp Fire
Girl movement, known as The 'Wohelo.
Mrs. Harris explained the watchword,
Wohelo, as coming from Wo Tin work.,
he lin healthy. and 10 Gin love). There
is a regular system of honors, and the
girls are advanced from position to po-
sition, according to how they qualify.
The idea is not only to have the CO.
operation of the mothers, but also of
that is succeeding well. =

vice observation-disclosures, spoke twice at
the afternoon meeting, once on the
matter of the federation promoting an
All Nations fete day or fete week. bas-
ed on the fact of recognized Importance
that the future Of our nation depends
upon the way we handle the Immigrant
problem. Mrs. McC1usky had worked
out splendid suggestions for the OBJ
seryance of such a day or week, with
the idea of inaugural week as the most
propitious time for holding the same.
but as that period is SO close at hand.
and so much preparation would be nee
essary, the board voted to take up the
matter at the state meeting next fall,
with the idea of carrying 1t through
next year If possible. Mrs. McClusky
in her later remarks laid stress upon
the importance of establishing credit
system in the club districts of the state,
to promote the paying OF more atten-
ton to the department suggestions, and
to give the impetus that rivalry always
creates. The idea met with favor by
the board and council
Various reports, all of a helpful ma
ture and showing commendable activi-
ty, were made by department chairmen
shortly before final adjournment A
vote of thanks was extended to the
Fargo club women, the A. C. faculty,
author and student performers of the
Little Country Theatre, the superin-
workers, board members and
girls of the Crittenton home, and to

Civic Art Lecture Net Given.
The session Thursday afternoon held
in the commercial clubroons was full
one. so crowded in fact that the lecture
on Civic Art, which was to have been
given as an extra feature by Mrs. e. f..
Chandler. of Grand Forks, had to be
omitted for that and other reasons. Mrs.
Chandler took the exhibit that was to
have been shown in connection with
this lecture, back to Grand Forks with
her last evening. 1t is hoped that the
information contained in the lecture
and exhibit may be available to Fargo
ans at some future date, as II is of a
very valuable nature and most apropos
here just now.
Dr. schererss Talk.
One of the very helpful addresses OF
the afternoon session was that of DR..
C. A. Scherer. children's specialist OF
this city, whose topic was The Need of
n Better Baby Education. AS the work
concerning child welfare Is broadening
SO rapidly, both his talk and thaE~of
Or. John Rindlaub. later on the pro-
gram, were most timely. DR.. Scherer
quoted statistics proving that two
