300 YEAR OLD FIR
HAS BEEN FELLED
(By Louise b. Lewis

"Great oaks from little acorns
grow, " and three centuries of a nation S
history can unfold during the time the
little seed of fir cone may come to
maturity.
One of Hood Rivers oldest and most
! beloved landmarks. "The Old Fir,
has recently succumbed to the march
| of modern progress and its mighty
trunk, felled by the woodman's axe,
now lies waiting to be apportioned into
neatly stacked firewood. The valley
people recall the historic participation
Of this tree in the lore of the commun-
ity and its earliest settlers.
Oldtimers, three generations back,
who came to Hood River as pioneers
and set out the first orchards for which
the valley has now become world fa-
nous. speak of "the old fir" with ten
der emotions, and there are many who
look upon the loss of the noble tree as
they would look upon the losss of an old
friend, whose personality and character
had become an endeared association.
Not only the older folk, but their
children and grandchildren, share in
the depth of septiment felt for a land
mark which has stood like a guardian
mother, a sentinel and even playfel-
low, stretching out long friendly arms
in protecting attitude. Children now
grown to maturity look back upon the
days when pilgrimage to the old fir
meant a day Of untold delight filled
with all sorts of games and 81 o Is.

tips almost resting upon the ground,

HAD CHRONIC BRONCHITIS
FOR TWENTY SIX YEARS
NOW WELL AND HAPPY
THIS IS WORTH READING

The experience Of Mr.. E. j. Tou-
palik, 1438 Rose street, Lacrosse.
Wisconsin, is chiefly remarkable
on account of the length Of time
he was afflicted.
He writes: 81 have been suf-
fering with chronic bronchitis for
twenty-siX years and every winter
| would catch cold and become so
hOarse | could not speak for six or
eight weeks. / could get only tenn
porary relief.
"This winter / was taken with
Grip and was in awful shape. A
fellow workman advised me to take
PE-RU-NA. By the time / had
used three-fourths of a bottle, the
hOarseness was gone, also that
tired feeling. / am on my second
bottle. Hereafter PE-RU-NA will
be constantly in my house. 1t is
the best medicine ever put up for
the purpose"
For any disease due to catarrh
or catarrhal conditions, PE-RU-NA
is equally dependable. Coughs,
colds, catarrh Of the head, stomach
trouble, constipation, rheumatism,
pains in the back, side and loins,
bloating, belching gas, Indigestion,
catarrh Of the large and small in
testines, are some Of the troubles
for which PE-RU-NA is especially
recommended.
PE-RU-NA can be purchased
anywhere in either tablet or liquid
form.

oldest inhabitant of the valley does not

an irrigation ditch was cut through its
roots and electric telephone wires were
strung through the branches, burning

wind, that the tree began to wither
and rot away. This brought about the
necessity of hewing down the famous

Work is progressing yer

Work is progressing very
rapidly in the drilling Of an oil
well on the Patout lands about
three miles west of New liberia by
the La. Drilling Company. Mr..
D. J. McPhee who has charge of
the operations stated to us on
Friday that everything was NOV
ing smoothly and the driller was
now several hundred feet into
the bowels Of mother earth. Mr..
McPhee seemed pleased with the
formations as they have been en-
countered and has high hopes Of
a successful well. Within the
past week another local company
has been organized here with the
intention of drilling on SOME
lands East of New Iberia. We
hope they will be successful in
shaping their plans which, should
they prove successful will mean
a great deal to our City.
Mr.. N. A. Jennaro, the en-
terprising boss drayman has
added to his auto freight transfers
another large car of the REQ
make, He says that he has all he
can do and looks forward to add
ing other transfers in the very
near future.

Notwithstanding experiences
of a large number of our owners
of automobiles who were SEN
fenced to pay fines last year by
Judge Power for failing to pro-
vide themselves with the State
licenses, it seems that quite a NUM-
Der of our citizens are again neg
Letting this important duty and
subjecting themselves again to
fine or imprisonment. Several
have been hauled up before His
Honor recently and fined. 1t
would be we'll for those how have
not provided themselves with the
1920 license to take heed at once.
The licenses must be paid under
all circumstances and the officers
would be recreant to their duty if
they failed to enforce the State
law.

Sheriff Landry and District
Attorney Vuillemot made a hur.
ried trip to Port Arthur, Texas,
a few days ago to take into
custody two prisoners, Meance
Broussard and Eulice Boutte,
both charged with wife desertion.
Fearing one of the accused would
take advantage of the extradi-
ton laws, Sheriff Landry was
clothed with the nee essary papers
before his departure for Texas.
One of the men had been re-mar-
ried, despite a wife and several
children whom he had left here
several months ago. Wife deser-
ton on the part of large num-
Der Of our natives have become a
common practice, if one were to
judge from the records of the
District Court. These people
should receive no leniency
whatever, when brought before
the bar for trial. The crime
is one of the most detesti,
bic, especially when they leave
young children behind to be
cared for by the community.
Divorce is obtained too easily in
this country in the first place and
ere long it would not surprise us
to see laws enacted preventing
divorce under any condition.

Gle which recently appeared III
our columns about the road work
being done under the supervision
of the Police Jury one of our citi-
zens condemned the Parish off
cials for permitting the manipula
tors of the road machine working
on the Jeanerette road for using
Tugs, contrary to the very ordi-
nance Of the jury. 1t seems this
particular piece of highway, while
being scraped with the road ma
chine was at the same time being
chopped up by the tractor. II
this be the. case, and we have no
reason to doubt the informant, il
should be looked into at once. In
the first place on a highway such
as we have between New Iberia
and Jeanerette there is no need
whatever for Tugs to be used SIM
ply to scrape the road. Again il
is violation Of the Parish ordi
nance and the example should be
set, even though no particular in
jury results therefrom.

At the regular meeting of
the Chamber Of Commerce held
last Tuesday night, Miss Rita M.
Soulier was elected acting secre-
tary, vice Mr.. Frank E. Noel.
Miss Soulier has been connected
with the Association in the capac-
ity of stenographer since its or
ganization, and her services have
been so well appreciated, hence
the promotion. 1t is more than
probable the Chamber Of Com
merce will not employ an expert
until it is found absolutely neces-
sary to keep up with its work.
