Saturday workmen began .squaring up the fill preparatory to contrac tion of the cement and iron portions, and imagine their surprise when they found frozen earth as they removed some of the original fill. The atmos phere ubout North Powder Saturday was such that the frozen ground was soon changed to a more summer-like, state when exposed to sunlight, but frozen gound in North Powder in the middle of July was, nevertheless, n fact. .
