The hoys of the forestry service nil enjoyed themselves Christmas, some of them paying visits to the valley, others spending their holi days in town. Ed Watson has been filling tin' place of Ed Cowdeil during the, hit ter's sickness. The dance, of Monday evening was well attended and greatly enjoyed by all who attended the affair. Work is still being done on some of the bad places of our roads, and it makes them a little better to travel. Wo have not had any sickness to amount to anything hereabouts dur ing the whiter and the doctor has not been called once to our commu nity to look after patients. Frank Netherland is suffering from a bad carbunclo upon his neck, which makes him quite sympathetic for those who are "boiling over." Pembroke Williams of Georgia, who is with the foresters, eme down to the town on Monday and says that the camp has been moved a lit tle higher up in the hills; that p)1 the boys are well and the work going, on; thnt they regale themselves with music of the violin and banjo and are- having n plcnsnnt time. We are all looking forward to the approach of spring, as many tire said to be the improvements which will be made and the industries in troduce or established. There is certainly room for them, and the townsite might be much improved, if social features were not overlook ed, as we want more than n mill town. Families of standing arc needed to raise the moral tone and to invite the incoming of people who will make for the upbuilding of our town and with what we have already it would not be long before we have an inviting section mid village where great and' profitable industries might bo planted. Wi(h the approach of January a change will be made in our local court, Judge 1'entz having positively declined to act further, and he will be succeeded by Ed Watson, whom we hope may have a pleasant ex perience in enring for the judicm1 affairs of the town. Rev. Mr. Jones expects to begin continuous services in Janunry, and w'e hope he may bo disappointed, but the greatest success may attend his efforts, lie should ho encouraged in his work, as he is the right man in the right place and can do much good with the co-operation of tlm community. John Whnrton, who has been in the valley for several months, lun returned to Butte Falls. There is not much work going on at the mill, but spring will find it going some, as thero will he need o' lumber for buildings and railroad.
