TOWN iHAS TREE,
AFTER STRUGGLE
Three stalw~art and hearty
Junior Chamber of Commerce
members who went elk hunting
in the M]ission Ridge country
above Wenatchee last weekend
had civic ,pride more on their
minds than four-footed beasts
with hat racks for toupees.
Cleo Stotler, Paul Brown and
'Phil ~Ianks, with two of Stot-
ler's cronies of professional
foot`ball days from Seattle,
braved the icy blasts to venture
far back into the timber in
search of, among other things,
a tree.
The tree, mind you, could not
ff~e just any tree; no, it must ~be
a special tree, just right to em-
bellish Othello's main drag tor
the forthcoming Christmas par-
ty for Othello youngsters.
rrhe quintet east 'aside their
rifles when falling snow made
it certain that an elk would be
out of the question and picked
II
up an axe to venture out in
search of said tree.
After 'much searching and re-
searching on the part of the five
members of the party, a tree
which was just right was found
and felled.
Thence the story begins---all
,five, .who .are all plenty husky
lads, bent to the task of moving
the tree some 200 yards through
two ,and three-foot snow banks.
Unh! No soap! Try as they
would, they couldn't budge the
tree an inch.
After trying some twenty or
thirty minutes the boys decided
o ,get smart, cut ~ive feet off
the trunk. Fine! Again 750
pounds of pro-ball tackle beef
bit the saplirJg. It moved this
time, so much you could almost
see it. The fellows did manage
to get it down to the road and
in ,position to load ,it on the top
of Brown's panel truck. After
two more hours of struggling
-~vith the Yule :pole and still it
'was on the ,ground, t~ne boys
rigged an in, genious tvipocl to

bold the trunk up in the air
high enough for Brown to ram
his truck under .it with the force
required to load ~it.
~oaded and ready, the five
left the ridge country over
~niles of near snowed in roads,
,drove another 160 miles
through a howlir~g windstorm,
several times nearly capsized by
the vch,ipping of the tree in the
force of the wind on top of the
truck.
~It is now near its final resting
place at 'First and Main streets
awaiting erection and decorat-
by the less hearty Junior Cham-
ber members.
If anyone in town doesn't like
the looks of the tree, broken
~branches, poor shape, etc., may
we issue a .word af warning--
don't say ,a word a~bout it, at
least where ,any of the three can
hear you.,
It is rumored that next year
the Jaycees are going to ,buy a
tree, preferably one set in the
standard and decorated.
