SILETZ

The Indian Red Cross dance
on the evening of December 81,
1917 was a very great success.
A large crowd was present,
among them a number of white
folks. Good music was furnish
ed by Mr.. Goodell and his daugh-
ter on the piano and violin. The
older forms of dancing were OBJ
served, such as the quadrille,
waltz, two-step, etc. John Will
iliams, noted Molalla chief was
the floor manager and prompter.
The best of order prevailed. A
splendid midnight supper was
served by the ladies'. AS the
New Year came in bells were
rang and everyone rose and gave
their New Years greeting to each
other and to the incoming year.
And hoped that 1918 would bring
more cheer, happiness and pros
perity than had the old year, and
that the frightful horrors of the
war would close and our brave
boys would come home unharm-
ed by the effects of the merciless
war. But it was the spirit OF the
meeting that rather than see Old
Glory go down to defeat, each
one would imperil his lie 10 pre-
vent 1t. We think Siletz is the
tanner precinct in the county
for raising Red Cross funds.
Through the efforts of c. S. Da-
Wis and R. r. EePoe the member
ship was increased 20 that even
ing making the whole member
ship over one hundred. Tie In
dams have sent fifteen of their
young men to the war anG they
all take interest in the Red
Cross work.
The Holidays passed off very
pleasantly at Siletz. A nice pro-
gram was prepared for the
Christmas entertainment. A
tree loaded with nice presents
was erected at the Methodist
Church. Every child that came
received a present and all pres
ent had a most excellent time.
Rev. Walter Ross pastor of the
Church preached the sermon
and conducted the exercises.
The music by the choir was ex-
cellent. The choir is composed
Of eight or ten members and are
all good singers.
A well OF ganized Sunday
School is now in progress un-
der the efficient management Of
"A. B. Slocum as superintendent,
and Oscar Brown as secretary.
Miss Chalcraft presides at the
piano.
| think Siletz is very fortunate
to get as able a minister as Mr..
Ross. He and Mrs. r.. are de-
voted to the work.
A social was given at the
Church Friday, December 7th,
Tor the purpose Of raising money
to pay the balance due on their
piano. Five booths were erected
and beautifully decorated and
supplied with refreshments to be

NEW YEARS DAY
RIVALS SUMMER TIME

The year 1918 started off like
the good old Summer time"
The day was soft and balmy and
the sky cloudless. The warm
weather of the past month has
brought out the blooms on the
Scotch Broom, the wild Daisies
are blooming, the Pussy Willows
are featherilg, and the frogs are
singing. 1t is hard to realize
that old Boreas is raising such
havoc in the East.
