There is a petition being circulated to
change the road up Linn's hill. We believe
it would be just about right A good road up
(bis hill would be something that would
be appreciated by every man who is con
cerned in the welfare ol the neighborhood as
it would be a good road both winter a. id
summer and besides there would be a way
for our road boss to get to town when the
the Abernelhv road sets impassable.
It seems as if it as about time the law
waa being enforced on those people who
will not send their children to school.
Because they grew up in igorance is no
reason that their children should. We are
sorry to say it but some children in our
neighborhood have not attended two months
in the past three years, and from the looks
of things they are not going unless the law
is used on the persons, who have charge of
them.
M . Richardson was in Portland on busi
ness yesterday.
The program for children's day is com
pleted. The exercises will begin next Sun

late. Those wedding bells will soon ring.

land school going to Viola Friday where
tbey assisted the Viola school in the exer
cises. Viola school was to have come and
assist our school in the program here but
on account of sickness of the teacher and
