THREE-TO-TwO HISTORY

Speaking at Boston of the "fifty-
seven yarities" of Investigations going
on at Washington at a cost of s3,0O0,-

Roosevelt said: The truth is the

what we call three-to-two history in
Washington, written by three Repub-
llcans and two Democratic senator's y
"Ihree-to-two" history is a phase
that deserves to be remembered. We
have had nothing else since the Sixty
sixth Congress convened. The Re
publican leaders Of that body started
out 10 deliberately bedaub every glori
ously record of national achievement
and the score has been the same in all
cases. For partisan team work with

NOTHING FOR THE MuRPHYS

A freckled-faced girl stopped at the
post Office and yelled out:
ANY thing for the Murphys?
"No, there is not
anything for Jane Murphy"
Nothing"
Anything for Ann Murphy?
"No."
Anything for Tom Murphy"

Anything for Terry Murphy ?"
"No, nor for Pat Murphy, nor Dem

Paul Murphy, nor any Murphy-dead,
living, unborn, native or foreign, civil
lized or uncivilized. savage or barbar-
Gus, male or female, black or white,
franchised or disfranchised, naturaliz-

ly nothing for any of the Muphys,
either individually, jointly, severaIly,
now and forever, one and inseparable.
The little girl looked at the post
master in astonishmcnt and said:''
''Please to look if there is anything

MISCELLANEOUS CONCERT
WAS FINE MUSICAL EVENT

The miscellaneous concert given at
tho Community church Friday evening
for the benefit of the band, was a de-
cIdcd success. The first numbers by
the band were much enjoyed and
showed that we have a band that is
full of pep This organization
now has forty members. "Fantasie"
played with Miss Redding at the organ
and Mr. Brilliant at the piano was a
number that brought much applause.
In her usual inimitable way Miss Wv
i'm Trip sang two numbers followed
By Ensemble Glass No. 2. This class
composed of Miss kamber, first vio-
lin; Mrs. Mckee, second violin; Wilma
Doig, viola; Evelyn Miller, cello; and
piano; all exceptional musicians, and
Esther Williams, piano; all exception
al musicians, and these numbers We're
very good.
Accompanied by Miss Redding at
the piano Hugh Palmer delighted the
solos.
: Miss Hatch's two songs, Rose of
Plcardy" and Because" were among
the best on the program. Miss Hatch
has beautiful, rich alto voice, and it
is indeed pleasure TO hear her sing.
Miss Ethel Trip played the gid
number "Silver Threads Among The
Gold" arranged for the violin by
Maude Powell, in a pleasing style.
Alfred Noyes' ".The Highwayman'
was given by Miss Schmitt. She held
the audience in a way that few readers
are able to do.
| Carl Walkers solos Were well rem
dered and showed this young mans
exceptional musical ability.

WHAT AMERICA
HAS DONE FOR ME

An English High School grad
uation essay by Miss Sadie
Wunsch, a Providence, (Rhode
Island) girl eighteen years old.
IAN essay we wish could be read
by every person living in Amer
lea. Quoted from the Providence
Tribune.
Ny earliest experience OF recollec
tion is Of a small hut with matched
roof of village across the Atlantic
This hut was scantily furnished and
contained living room, kitchen, and
two bedrooms. Surrounding the house
was small plot of land from which
we earned our livelihood. Groups of
men gathered about our house and
talked OF the Golden Land" where one
could make money easily and their
children have great educational ad-
vantages.
Many times | would picture that
land and hope that | might live there.
could not hope even to enter school
in my native land. Girls did not need
an education; if they could do farm
work and housework, that was sutfic-
lent

ed for America. We set out with
small means but high spirits.H How dis
tinctly do l remember that last night
on board the ship. Almost all the
passengers were assembled on the deck,
with happy thoughts of arriving at our
destination. People of all nationali-
ties were there, all with earnest gaze
towards the land that promised food
and shelter.
/ entered primary school, and my
teacher was very kind to me because !
could not speak an English word.
The years sped by and received my
grammar school diploma. English
High School was my choice, and in
perfect truth it has been a second
home to me. The four years that ]
have spent within these walls have
, given mo Al education and have help
: ed to make me an American.
/ This and more has America done for
/ millions of emigrants. She receives
them all with open arms and offers
them employment, education, citizen
ship, everything. What does she ask
in return? Nothing but loyalty and
devotion. What . small payment for
so great a debt!
You cannot know the gratitude that
I feel. l love every star on that field

FRED WHEELER IN
VENTS NEW GRADER

w. f. Wheeler, local mechanical gen
ius who has pefected a number of de-
vices for the convenience of apple pick
ers. has completed new apple grading
and sizing machine, which has won the
commendatiOn of growers who have
seen it in operation. Mr.. Wheeler in
vented the sizing machine in collabora-
ti0n with II. F. Davidson.
The new machine, placed on trial
Saturday at the warehouse of the Hood
River Fruit Co.. will handle three
grades of fruit The apples are carried
by belts to metal cups in which a
square opening has been cut. As the
cups are moved along a graduated track
against which wheels operate, cause
them gradually to open, thus dropping
the apples of certain sizes in their re-
spective bins The cups are then closed
and begin another series of sizing for
lower grades, the fruit being delivered
by overhead belts.
An innovation in grading machine
custom, packers will not pack directly
from bins of the new machine. The
apples, however, are delivered directly
to apple boxes, and thus sizing anc
grading and packing of the apples dc
not have TO be conducted at one opera
tion. With the new machine the apples
may be sized and stored for packing
out at leisure.
