Polk County Observer J. C. HAYTER, EDITOR AND PUBLI3IIKR Published Weekly and Semi - Weekly at $1.60 per Year. Strictly in Advance. DALLAS.OREGON, August 16, 1907. The way to build up Dallas is to pat- ronizt Dallas people. To see a woman fondling and kiss ins? a dirty litttie poodle dog is bad enough, but the sight of a full-grown female gadding up the street with a Teddy bear hugged to her bosom is about the limit. Fortunately, Dallas has no such. The grain harvest will soon be com pleted in Polk county, and attentiou will then be turned to the hop yards and prune orchards. With a good yield of all kinds of agricultural and horticultural products, the farmers of western Oregon will see a continua tion of prosperous times this Fall. Residents of Dallas who have long wished for better streets, are in a fair way to see their fondest hopes realized. The council is in earnest on the rock crusher proposition this time, and is proceeding in a business-like way to carry out the wishes of the voters for improved streets, as expressed in no uncertain terms at the last city election. EVENTFUL LIFE ENDED Robert Glaze, a Former Polk County Boy, Dies in California. Attention is called to the advertise ment of the Falls' City Hospital, printed elsewhere in this paper. The hospital is now open for patients, and is receiving a good patronage from the people of western Polk county. The equipment is complete, and the building is a credit to the town in which it is located. Doctors Pfand hoefer and Wolfe have a hospital of which any community might feel proud, and are deserving of much success for their enterprise. MRS. SARAH SYRON DEAD Passes Away in Salem After Long Illness, Aged 57 Years. Mrs. Sarah E.

She is survived by her aged husband ; three sons, Charles, Mai ion and Frank Syron, and one daughter, Delia Syron, all of Dallas. Mrs. Syron was a good woman, and was well liked by her neighbors.
