LOCAL EAGLES TO ATTEND SATE CONVENTION

     Major F. H. Blake will leave for Hoquiam, Washington, this week to attend the State Convention of the Fraternal Order of Eagles which takes place on the 14-15-16 and 17th of this month.
     Blake will go as a delegate along with Jim Hawes and John Nichols and will speak in favor of the resolution that is up for consideration on the matter of the Eagles acting as Big Brothers to Camp Columbia ”Boys Town of the West”.  This resolution is being placed before the convention by the Mt. Adams Aerie of the Fraternal Order of Eagles and a similar resolution will be presented by the Hood River Aerie at the Oregon State Eagles convention in Klamath Falls the following week.  Blake will appear at the Oregon Convention also to fight for its adoption.
     Should the Eagles pass favorably on this resolution the same as the Eagles of N. Dakota and S. Dakota have done for Father Cassidy's Boys Town, Camp Columbia will no longer be a dream.
