the direct supervision of the Government. They are inspected fre
quently and are compelled to make a public statement of their re
sources five times a year. A certain sum must be carried in reserve

- cial Affaire on the Lull. '
Ladd Canyon, Oregon, April 23.
(Special) Although the April show
ers are occasionally accompanied by
cold breeze from the west, is seems
to be fine growing weatherj neverthe
less, as the newly-sown grain fields
and gardens and the meadows and
hill pastures appear to 'be springing
up wonderfully. Farmers have taken
nearly all their stock to the moun
tains for the summer, some time ago
and they are doing fine.
It is pretty hard lately to obtain
very much news for the paper, sup
posedly on account of every one be
ing too busy with spring work to go
or entertain) very often. But then
that is a pretty good indication of a
prosperous neighborhood, - as every
one knows who is familiar with Ladd
Canyon.
Many people were fishing in Ladd
Creek Sunday and there was quite a
good many automobiles going through
to Hot Lake.
Only those who have ever attended
a party given by Mr. and Mrs. Fred
Mattson know how very delightfully
they can entertain. They were host
and hostess to about a dozen ''couples
last Saturday evening whom they had
invited in to participate in a dancing
party, and a very, nice ,lap supper
was served at twelve o'clock. . Those
who made the evening merry were Mr.
and Mrs. Alec Furgason, Mr. and
Mrs. Dick Peebler, Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Grandy, Mr. and Mrs. Law
rence Drumsmith, Mr. and Mrs. Tom
as Bates, Miss Dora Geiger, Law
rence Spencer, Miss Irene Mulholland,
Jack Walker, Miss Mabel Bates, Mr.
Peterson of La Grande, Mrs. Wright
of Tacoma, Wash., Edward Doolittle,
Bert Ravenscroft of La Grande and
Joe and Keith Bates.
Eugene Banton has gone to Poca
tello, where he will remain with his
sister and her husband, Mr. and Mrs.
Asa Benton, on their farm until they
return to their respective home in
La Grande, which will be some time
in the near future.
Mrs. Marie Larm has returned home
after a two weeks stay in La Grando,
with her daughter, Mrs. Belle Hunt
ley. Although she was quite sick
part of the time she was there, she
hud a very good visit. She was ac
companied home by her daughter,
Mrs. Bertha Evanson, who is here
from Grant's Pass, visiting relatives.
Mrs. Eula Dougherty and baby
daughter, Dorothy, has been hero
from Enterprise visiting the last two
weeks with her parents, Mr. and Xrs.
Dick Peebler, Miss Frnnkie Peebler,
Maurice Fulton of La Grande drove
out and took dinner with them Sun
day. Notice of Dissolution of Partnership,
