LEADERSHIP
Frederick A. Hatch

Conditions Of the present day are such that
large life of any organization can persist very
long unless there is large outlook and large
purpose This applies as truly to the churches.
as to commercial philanthropic enterprises.
Much depends upon the leadership Of the church,
which is not attribute confined alone to the
pulpit Tho church must be leader in its COM
munity truly as the pastor must be leader
But suppose the church will not be ledf Then
that church has right to exist. Or suppose
that it wants to be led along paths which serve
only its particular propaganda its sole advan-
tage. Then again, its right to continue is to be
questioned.
1t is true that when church is without
pastor the weighty end Of the problem is y
permitted by the church members to rest on the
candidate and not themselves. Do we like
his preaching, or his wife, his social ability,
questions most apt to be asked. The real
question should be, do we purpose to follow his
leading whom we consider possible pastor.
Democracy m church affairs, in political mat
tcrs has to mean the assumed right to kick
up dust and make trouble at any provocaton.
There is a mutual obligation the part Of both
congregation and pastor, TO mutual
responsibilities
As editorial IN a religious paper puts it:
"Any who is worth having pastor
viii want to know whether not the church
has any possibilities and any future, whether its
membership Is composed Of progressive, forward
looking and women who arg ready to push
vigorously for the and finer things Of the
Kingdom, or whether it is made up OF unpro-
gresxive, critical, easily dissatisfied folk who
arc close and nisgardly in all their religious
work and who win oppose anything that looks to ,
growth and enlargement of the equipment and
work of the church. Every year it becomes moro
and moro diffcnl. for church of the last s6tt--'
u and a who is willing TO accept it"

DUCKWALL OPTIMIS-
TIC OVER APPLES

William S. Duckwall. member Of the
shipping firm of Duckwall Bros, has
arrived from Indianapolis, where he is
in charge of sales office of the con-
Germ, to look over crop prospects. Mr..
Duckwall says that the market out

prices rally along about harvest time.

lative element from our business, "
saws Mr.. Duckwall. land are taking
purchase orders only. We have al
ready booked surprisingly large num-
ber of purchase orders. the price to be
set at time of packing and harvest
The market is slow now because the
buyers are extremely cautious. The
big fruit buying interests lost heavily
on the peach and pear deals, and they
are not going to speculate on apples.
They are going to wait and then put
the fruit into consumption and see
what the consumer is going to want. "
Mr.. Duckwall says the Hood River
crop is very flattering. He says the
harvest, from indications, is going to
be week or two earlier than usual.
This he says will work for benefits to
growers in that it will release returns
to them sooner.
Mr.. Duckwall states that T. w.
Fletcher, formerly with Swift q CO.,
in Portland, will take charge of the
clerical work in their headquarters
office here.

PACKING SCHOOL
OPENS MONDAY
ORCHARDTSTS URGED TO ATTEND
New Packers, il is Said, Are Needed For
Handling This Years Huge
Tonnage of Fruit

The Apple Growers Association is
making ready for record attendance
at the 1921 packing school, which will
open for week next Monday at the
warehouse of the cooperative agency
at the corner of Columbia and Sixth
streets. Marsh Isenberg, chief inspec-
tor of the Association, aided by various
members of the inspection department,
will be in charge. Large quantities of
earlier varieties of fruit will be
brought to the warehouse. and students
will begin Immediately to learn the
various methods of packing apples.
The afternoons throughout the week
of packing school will partly be devot-
ed to lectures of officials of the Associ-
alton and others on grading rules and
the necessity of maintaining standard
pack of fruit for the valley.
Manager Stone has sent out an APP
peal to families of orchardists to send
all available members, both men and
women, to the school. He declares
that the big crop of apples and the
limited number of packers in former
years indicates famine of packers
this year, unless the families of orch
ardists turn out and aid with the work.
A large list of students from neighbor-
ing fruit districts is expected here.

The perfect autumn weather over
the mid Columbia Monday resulted in
an evacuation Of the local population,
most Of which m0tOred to Bonneville,
for participation in the Knights Of
Pythias picnic, or spent the day fishing
or on recreation parties IN the forest
or on the mountain side. Hood River,
however, appeared as heavily pOpou-
lated as if the home folks had re-
mained. Apparently making the most
of the waning vacation season, auto
mobile parties estimated at 3. 900 Wis
tied the town and valley. Hotels, res
taurants and garages reported one Of
the busiest days Of the year.
The Pythian picnic at Bonneville
drew an estimated 500 local folk, while
huge delegations were present from

gon points. Many were at Bonneville

CREAMERY STOCK
is SIGNED FOR

Ranchers Of the Trout Lake, Husum,
and Glenwood districts of Klickitat
county, Washington. are ready, to the
extent of considerable purchases of
stock. to aid the Hood River Cream
erv in enlarging its plant and making
other expansions. The following mem
bers of the creamery directorate have
lust returned from a series of meet
ings with Klickitat county ranchers :
A. w. Peters, j. z. Thomson. John
Mohr and r +. Batten. Except for
Mr.. Mohr the creamery men were ac-
companied by their wives. They were
accompanied by Manager and Mrs.
Black. The directorate will visit the
Snowden district soon.
For more than a year the creamery,
which is now manufacturing 1000
pounds of butter a month, has been re-
ceiving large quantities of cream from
across the Columbia. Heavy shipments
Of butter are also being made TO the
Klickitat county points.
Over in Klickitat county the ranch
ers between White Salmon and the
Washington hiuterland points receive
their mail by star route. Each man
has a cloth satchel, which the mail
man hangs beside his box. As the
creamery directors made their way by
motor 10 Glenw01d they bad been pre-
ceded by the star route man. The
sight Of an those satchels was too
much for John Mohr. according TO his
fellow directors. Finally he turned to
J. =. Thomson and said:
"These folks over here certainly
have a lot of water bags"
Indeed. the mail bags do resemble
the South African water bags, such as
motorists. travelling across the desert

BONUS APPLICATIONS
in HANDS OF LEGION

The American Legion Post has re-
ceived from the State Bonus Commits
sion application blanks for distribution
among the ex-service men of this
county. Blanks are in the hands of
the Legion's adjutant. Robert G. Me-
Nary, who will be aided in the distri-
button by Sidney b. Carnine.
The Legion Post will cooperate in
every way in aiding men in filing ap-
plications properly filled in. All ex-
service men are warned not to make
any deal for city or rural real estate
without consulting the Legion commit
tee or banker. All bankers have
volunteered their service toward aid
ing the local men. The Legion urges
that soldiers apply for the loan instead
of the cash bonus.
Ex-service men are asked to use ex-
treme care in filling out their applica-
tions. They are warned not to make
out the documents without the aid of
the Legion adjutant or members of the
committee who have studied the forms
and who will thus be prepared to pre-
vent mistakes that would result in ser
ious delays. 1t is expected that funds
will be available for the first appli-
cants by December /.

.DONNERBERG SECURES
PHOTOS FROM PLANE

An interesting feature of Hood Riv-
er's first aerial passenger service con-
Quoted here recently by Captain Yerex.
formerly an aviator of the British
army, was the flight by Fred w. DON
nerberg, who secured the first airplane
pictures of the Hood River valley and
mid Columbia mountain and river land
scapes. One of Mr. Donnerberg's most
appealing photographs shows the loops
of the Columbia Highway just east OF
the city.
The visiting air man was accompan-
led on flights by numerous city and
valley residents. Several Washington
orchardists and their families were
here for flights. Orchardists invari-
ably asked that the plane be piloted
over the neighborhood of their home
places. j. f. Slade. owner of large
Husum orchard, accompanied by his
daughter, Miss Janet, was taken for
an aerial trip over his holdings.
The first Hood River girl to make a
flight locally in an airplane was Miss
Marie Bartmess, who with her father,
S. f.. Bartmess. accompanied Capt.
Yerex for spin in the air soon after
his arrival here Saturday.

H. R. FRUIT CO.
SHIPS FIRST CAR

The first carload of Hood River val
lev apples, the first of 2.250 cars, the
estimated tonnage of the valleys total
yield, was shipped last Thursday night
by the Hood River Fruit Co. The
fruit, of Gravenstein variety, was har-
vested from the Boneboro place of
Burt Van Horn. The apples were
routed to Chicago, where, according to
Mr.. Castner. they had been sold.
The Gravenstein crop on the Bone
boro place, according to those who
have visited the orchard, is the finest
of this variety ever picked in Oregon.
Much of the fruit, which averages five
boxes to the tree, will runEto So to the
box. 1t will average SO. Judge Geo.
r. Castner says he has never seen finer
Gravensteins. q The apples are well
colored.
The tract of Is acres will yield 5000
boxes, it is said. The Boneboro orch
ard place was planted in 1911 by G. K.
Bone. 1t was managed for a number
of years by Il. A. Decker.
4 The apples were bought in Chicago
by Louis Sbertoli. c. w. McCullagh
made the sale. Mr.. McCullagh states
that he has sold nine other cars OF
Gravensteins to Chicago dealers.

Hood River won the tug of war.
The Hood River band added new laurels
by concerts and in playing for open

sufficient members to form a team.
Miss Kathryn /. Baker won the girls
race.
The sports officials erred in judgment
