OGALLAH
(Too late for last week.

(Too late for last week.
Rev. Parish preached to a large
audience Sunday morning.
Rev Broadfoot (the new M. E
minister) arrived last week and will
live in Ogallah all the time.
The picture show last Saturday
night was well patronized as the hall
was jammed. AS a special feature
Judge Peacock gave US an excellent
four minute speech.
Hon. Jas. A. Troutman, of Topeka,
gave an excellent Red Cross speech
in the Ogallah Hall last Sunday night
The hall was filled to overhowing as
the churches services were called off
and everyone went out to hear the
Red Cross speech.
About the worst cyclone in this
part of Kansas passed southeast of
Ogallah Monday night, demolishing
buildings and everything in its path
including the big tabernacle. Joe Kel-
logg, Hughes, Wassinger, Carl Ander-
son, Julius Hillman, Basil Ridgway,
Frank Hoover, Walter Baugher and
others reported damage to buildings
The Red Cross Benefit Sale last
Saturday was even better than we
expected as the articles brought about
$1,000 to say nothing of all the cash
donated and the Ladies Aid sold
about $4,000 worth of dinner and ice
cream so Ogallah is over the top al
ready N this drive as our apportion-
ment believe was only S1,7So.00 in
cluding Riverside, who held their sale
the 22nd.

Forest Grove Disappointed :
In Not Hearing James Elvin

Stuck in the mud half way between
Newberg and Forest Grove and large
audience awaiting him at Forest Grove
last evening, the Rev. James Elvin is
not only believer in what General
Sherman said about war, but also is
now willing to apply the famous re-
mark to service for the united war
fund.
Yesterday afternoon at the armory,
in order that the Rev. Pence might take
the train to Portland to deliver an
evening address, Mr.. Elyin gave part
of his time to the Portland speaker. 1t
worked all right for Mr.. Pence, but
not for Mr.. Elvin who was scheduled
to deliver an address at Forest Grove
in the evening.
Too late to catch the 0 clock train
north, Mr.. Elvin was taken by a friend
as far as Newberg. He arrived there
at $50 o clock and at once arranged
with a taxi to carry him over to Forest
GroveBut the going was bad and af-
ter all sorts of hard luck, Mr.. Elvin
and his taxi driver found themselves in
IA mud hole at midnight about five
miles this side of Forest Grove.
A near by farmer was induced to pull
them out and by 2 o'clock this morn
ing Mr.. Elvin was back il Newberg,
arriving in Salem today noon.
He has arranged to speak soon at
Forest Grove at an early date and also
to take another route and means of
travel in reaching his audience.
