Portland Hoo Hoo Club Meets
At the luncheon meeting of the Portland Hoo-Hoo Club, lreld October 22, a start was made with plans for the entertainment of. the Western Retail Lumbermen's Association by the appointment of a strong committee. E. D. Kingsley was recommended for Vicegerent Snark and Herbert J. Anderson for State Counsellor.
Secretary W. B. Mack urged the members to boost for a National Hoo-Hoo Park in Oregon, which would be a future playground for lumbermen from San Diego to Vancouver. Land could be acquired for this purpose, he said, if they went after it in the right way. He thought that as regards location the Park should be located on a stream, and near the ocean. Mr. Mack also suggested that it might lle called National Friends of the Forest Park.
