NEAR EAST FUND
SETS RECORD HERE

J. j. Handsaker, representing Ore
gon on the Near East Relief campaign,
who has just returned from a personal
investigation in Persia and Armenia,
following a collection of $1,000 by Riv-
erside Community church Sunday
night, announced that the fund was the
largest subscribed by any church in the
state. An additional $500 will be
raised Immediately by Riverside church

Other churches of the valley had
previously subscribed $500 to the Near
East Relief, and Hood River county's
total now exceeds $1,000. Mr.. Boldly,
in introducing Mr.. Handsaker, said:
"This is the first representative of a
special cause who has ever been give
the privilege of address FROM our
pulpit. The need is so great that it
cannot be denied. 1t would be un-
Christianizing our churches not to hear
and heed the cry of the children of the
Near East"

and company in concert at the Rialto
theatre. The hospital fund was started
last year when Miss A. M. Spring. of
Coronado, Calf. donated an East Side
orchard place, which was sold for
$5, 600.
Because of the excellence of the ap-
preaching opera concert and the inter

the hospital fund, it is expected that
the performance will draw record
crowd.

While most China pheasant hunters
use pointers or settlers for retrieving
the birds they have shot, DIR. j. +.
Watt. says he discovered by accident
during the open season on the hand
some fowls here that cats cannot be
beaten for finding dead birds.
al took my gun one day to go out
for bird that knew was accustomed
to feed in the orchard. | noticed that
two halfgrown kittens were following
me but paid no attention to them until
after had shot the fowl. | had to
fire twice, the first shot merely Grip
pling the pheasant. Imagine my sur
prise when those cats rushed the dead
bird. They found him easily in the
cover crop. One of them had him by

Col. and Mrs. w. S. Dowd, motoring
to their Upper Valley home from this
city one night last week almost ran
down an albino coyote just south of the
Middle Valley school house. The white
animal darted in front of the car on
long straight stretch of road. The
lights confused it and it ran directly in
front of the car for considerable dis
tance. Col. Dowd says il was a pure
white.
Hunters Of the district will endeavor
to capture the freak animal. Indians
of the community say the white coyote
indicates an open winter.
