mood undertaken to look after her
and play hostess to her, and who
had, as soon as that moment was
past, dreaded regretting it, was
agreeably surprised. She found
that Sally Hicks could prove a very
amusing companion. Her chatter
was often droll and never dull.
She was warm hearted, good
natured, and grateful for favor
though never gushing.
To her own amazement Fancy
found that she did no. dislike her,
nor was she irritated by her. She
did not hesitate to tell her bluntly
of her faults and failings, and to
correct her when Necessary. Sally
accepted these rebukes in the
spirit in which they were meant,
and there was something almost
of friendship existi..s & now between
the two women.
How much of liking there was
in that friendship neither had
troubled to consider. Indeed,
Sally could not yet be sure If she
liked the other or not. She would
need more time in which to decide.
There was nothing at all tenn
peramental about Sally. She was
no creature of moods and fancies; ;
consequently she found Fancy
battling. At the same time she
was a far-seeing young person,
and there were moments when
Fancy found herself flushing be-
meath her shrewd amber gaze.
For the rest Sally was very con-
tent. She was not shy, and after

HIGH TAXES

The commission that has been study
ing Oregon taxes has placed the re-
sponsibility for the states tax bur
dens. 1t is the people themselves,
members of the commission state. who
cause high taxes. 1t takes no more
than a casual investigation of happen
ings in Oregon-or in Hood River
county-during the past 10 years to
show that this is very true. An orch
ardist the other day showed us his
tax statement for 1908. He paid
$16.88 that year. He received state
ment this year for $l56.70. This
money is needed to pay the bills that
the people themselves have contracted.
We raise mighty protests against the
extravaganza of congress and state
legislatures, and yet every set of citi-
zens with hobby does not hesitate to
hasten to the tax budget board or sub
nit tax-paying provisions at elections.
1t is popular to hold in contempt the
man or woman who is forever against
anything that will result in greater
taxes. A tightwad is always a con-
temptible character. Without a few
of them, however, blue ribbon ideal
lists, as we heard someone say not
long ago, would be the utter ruin of

HIGHWAY SURPLUS

Award of contracts on the last two
remaining units of the valley trunk of
the Mount Hood Loop Highway at fig
ure far below estimates available last
summer, when bond issue of $3.50. 900
was voted by the county in participat-
ing with the state on a $3.50 basis in
constructing the road, indicates that
the county will have surplus of more
than 100000. This money. however,
cannot be expended, having been voted
specifically for the trunk road. The
county will merely withhold sale of
this amount of the bonds.
The contract on the Booth Hill Sec
tion. five miles now being graded. was
awarded for $56, 900. The Booth Hill
Hood River unit, chiefly heavy rock
construction, will cost STA, 900, an
award having been made last week.
The Booth Hill-National Forest section
was awarded for $74, 200, making the
total grading cost $24, 1000. 1t is esti.
mated that it will cost an approximate
$120, 900 to gravel the road.

Justice of the Peace 0nthank on a
charge of possessing moonshine liquor.
City Marshal Hart's department found
keg in Mr.. Dakin's home. The fine

George Carlton and Apostula Jorgen,
Fir residents, taken in a Sunday raid
by Sheriff Johnson and posse, were
manufacturing what the officers char
acterize as vile product in an old
dirty washboiler. The officers declare
that the liquor, from the looks of il

of her typically wholesome productions.
One laughs at her shows with tear

The mill of the Oregon Lumber Co.
began operations Monday, turning out
lumber to be used in repairing log
ging road bridge and trestle across the
east fork of Hood river, which was
washed out last November by floods
following the heavy seet and snow

Dee will be logged for the bridge

Inspection of the system of the Dee
Power & Irrigation Co., which waters
orchard tracts of Dee Flat, shows a

Those operators of motion picture
shows at Seaside and Bend are wise.
They have realized the necessity of re-
popularizing their wares. Going to
the picture show is developed largely
by habit. The weather of the past
winter has tended to destroy this hab-
it. The movy man, who would again
fill his houses to overfowing must per-
force recreate the habit.

Long stretches of the heavily con-

Citizens should commend and support
by their attendance the recently inaug-
urated debating contests between
teams of Oregon high schools. Another
feature of school life that is deserving
of heartiest cooperation of all is the
annual county oratorical contest. Both
give participantsla training in research
work in preparation for their public
appearance. The debates and orations
add to the self-confdence of the speak
ers. The ability to think clearly on
ones feet is an attribute that many
adults would give much to possess. 1t
is a quality that will fit boys and girls
for better leadership and citizenship.

elaboration. Why, said Mr.. Sykes,
should residents of community over
look the meritorious qualities of their
home workers and allow outsiders to
first behold their value and be first to
offer promotion? This popularity of
human nature should not exist 1t is
similar to the.demands of the shopper
