Prineville Gets Better
Mail Service
Ten o'clock mail is the latest
Tiews for Prineville and everybody
sat up and took notice of this fact
last Tuesday morning when the
Jourdan-Kuleseh Stage Company
came into town with Uncle Sam's
mail in their new Mack auto truck,
having made the trip in one and
one-half hours. Thev have boon
using a similar auto between Red
mond and Sisters for the past two
weeks. It was expected to put the
Frineville-Redmond truck on earlier
but a cloudburst overtook Mr.
Jourdan in the Antelope Canyon as
he was bringing the auto from The
Dalles. The water rose so rapidly
that it was soon running over the
bed of the auto. About this time
Jourdan thought it time to take to
the tall timber in order to save
himself. The next day the truck
was found about two hundred yards
below the scene partly embeded in
the rocks. The owner hauled it
out and left it with Johnny Bolter
until he could get the necessary
parts with which to make repairs.

the close of the afternoon and each
guest was given a piece of Mrs.

The College and
the People
We have read and heard much
the last year or so about the var
ious forms of extension work of the
colleges and universities. "Bring
the College to the People" has be
come a familiar headline to all of
us. As an actual fact it has not
meant much to most of us however,
but with the coming of the County
Short Course this will change. This
Short Course, a description of
which is found in another column
of this paper, will mean much to
those who are so fortunate as to at
tend. The college does not often
come into our midst, and Prof.
Pratt is to be congratulated upon
securing one of these Short Courses
for Crook county. Professors Pot
ter, Scudder, Fitts, Dolman and
Dean Calvin from the College; Mrs.
Walker and Mr. Pratt from our
high school, a capable group of
instructors surely, and one it will
be a pleasure to listen to.
For the benefit of those of our
readers who have not yet sent in a
slip, we print on another page a
copy of the registration card which
is used to help those in charge
learn how many to expect. If you
have not already done so fill it out
and mail it now.

Good Entertainment
The Elocutionary recital given
last Saturday evening at the Meth
odist church by Mrs. E. L. Wal
dron was enjoyed by nil who were
fortunate enough to bo present.
Every number is deserving of men
tion and each seemed bettor than
the last.
Her interpretation of the story
of "The Church Hells" was very
realistic and pronounced by some
the best number on the program.
The most humorous Detection was
"A Dinner at Walker Hall" in
which a dinner with all its modern
appointments was described by an
old fashioned woman.
Mrs. Waldron, who has had sev
eral years' experience in her chosen
profession, is now living near Si
ters and it was through her daugh'

in the high school, that her services
were secured. Mrs. Waldron made
many friends while here and de
serves much credit for her efforts
