For Old Bell
By FLORENCE MATTHES
LAKE L A B I S H The Old
Bell of Lake Labish has seen 42
years of service. It called many
whe are now on the Golden
Shore! Many who listened to its
deep harmonious tone are now
in the four quarters and the
Seven Seas.
When Prof. W. F. Rogers
taught here 40 years ago it was
installed. It could be heard to
Brooks, to Clear Lake, to Hayes
ville. That was because the Old
Stage Road with its wagon and
pedestrians was not as noisy
(or as efficient) as the present
mile-a-minute traffic!
The Grand Old Bell was tak
en this week to Labish Village
where it will be installed at the
church and will continue to
mark time for one of the finest
neighborhoods in Oregon!
(Of course, everybody knows
we have a $42,000 new scfiooL)

Dog Fasts as

At Scout Meet
DOYLEST0WN, Pa. ( Alle
gretta won't eat. can't play and
her heart is breaking. Her master
has gone off to the Boy Scout Na
tional Jamboree in California and
until he returns it looks as if Al
legretta is being faithful in her
fashion.
Her faithfulness entirely . suits
her breed for Allegretta is a black
German shepherd dog whose en
tire two-year life has been wrapped
up in her master, 16-year-old Ed
Rauss.
Her sadness befits her name for
it was taken from the musical
term Allegretto which is not brisk
as allegro, but sad and sweet and
gentle.
Left on Train
The dog's rejection of any in
terest in life began last July 9
when Mr. and Mrs. Edward F.
Rauss. loaded their son, Ed Jr.,
and all his gear and Allegretta
into the family station wagon to
take Eddie to the train for his
journey to California.
When the Rausses returned,
Gretta leaped from the station
wagon and ran wildly through the
house, sniffing and whining. Final
ly she gave up her search and
then refused to leave the house
or eat.
In Station Wagon
Two days later, Mrs. Rauss set
off on an errand in the station
wagon and when she returned Al
legretta climbed into the vehicle
and refused to leave it Since that
day the dog has refused to quit
the station wagon and has nibbled
only half-heartedly at two dog bis
cuits. A veterinarian prescribed forced
feeding and vitamin pills but Al
legretta is losing weight steadily.
Eddie: who heard of his pet's
seige of melanchony slipped away
from the activities at Jamboree'
City long enough to telephone Sun
day night to ask if he should hurry
home.
Urged to Stay
His mother said: "It's up to you
son, but I think it's all right if
you stay."
Later she said: "We're hoping
to keep Allegretta alive with the.
doctor's prescription until Eddie
comes home we hope by July
30."
At the jamboree, Eddie re
marked: "She did the same thing last
year when I took a trip to Michi
gan for a month, but was as good
as new when I got back.
"I miss Allegretta, but I know
my folks are taking the best care
of her. She'll be okay when 1 get

WASHINGTON UP) Idaho Pow

he proposed federal Hells Canyon
Jam would prevent future irriga
tion development and operate in

PooL
Mark Kulp, Idaho state reclama
tion engineer, testified at a power
commission hearing on Idaho Pow
er a applications to buud three
dams in the Snake River, that up
stream irrigation rights have pri
ority m state permits granted for
the projects.
I He declared however, the pro
posed 400 million dollar, federal
dam near one of the power
company's sites along the Idaho
Oregon border would impound
water needed for future irrigation.
! Kulp said Idaho has more than
2 million acres of land under
Irrigation, most of it along the
Snake River, and the total should
eventually be doubled. The pro
posed federal project, he declared,
does not make allowance for
stream depletion' for normal in
creases in reclamation.
Acreage to Increase
Kulp predicted the number of
acres put under water along the
Snake River in Idaho will increase
about 30.000 annually during the
next 30 or 40 years.
His testimony was substantiated
by Harry M. Dewey, Twin Falls,
Idaho, engineer, who testified as
o results of a survey he made
or Idaho Power in the past nine
months on the irrigation potential
of the Snake Valley above the
Hells Canyon Dam site.
Dewey said information for his
survey was obtained from Idaho
Power Co., Utah Power and Light
Co., Army Engineers and the fed
eral Reclamation Bureau. He is
a former employe of the Army
Engineers in the Reclamation Bu
reau. During 70 Tears
Dewey traced the development
of irrigation in Idaho during the
past 70 years. He said acreage
tinder water increased from 200.
000 in 1880 to more than 2,800,000
in 1950.
Lester Cowgill of Portland, Ore..
coordinating engineer for the
Northwest Power Poo!, testified
that some large reservoirs do not
operate at capacity in the, produc
tion of power because they are
'hard to fill."
He said he was not familiar with
he federal Hells Canyon proposal.
but that Hungry Horse and Canyon
Ferry reservoirs in Montana are
examples of projects in the "hard-
to-fin" category.
Hungry Horse dam is in the Flat
head River and Canyon Ferry is
in the Missouri.
Reservoir Not Filled
Cowgill said there hasn't been
enough water in the Flathead to
fill Hungry Horse reservoir during
any year in the past 22 years.
Addition of more hard-to-fill
Reservoirs in the Pacific North
west would increase the margin

GLADSTONE VFi The town of
Milo east of Canyonville in South
ern Douglas County has been se
lected as the site for a million
dollar Seventh-day Adventist
school, church officials reported
Sunday. !
About $200,000 already has been
spent on the 447-acre tract to in
stall a water system and a dairy
with several barns. Dr. Andrew
Nelson, told the Adventists' an
nual camp meeting here.
Nelson, who is president of the
Philippine Union College, said the
church has $344,000 to begin con
struction this fall of two dormi
tories and other buildings. Each
dormitory will accommodate 150
students, he said.
The academy is to be a pre

grades, h said.
late reservoirs operated in the
power pool, Cowgill said.
He explained that such reser
voirs cannot be emptied, but must
be kept at high level for use in
critical periods since river flow
isn't adequate to fill them.
Idaho Power contends the vast
90-mile-long Hells Canyon reser
voir, which would contain four mil
lion acre feet, could not possibly
be filled annually and at the same
time satisfy upstream irrigation
needs.
Cowgill said the Northwest PoW'
er Pool considers all power, fa

ting up operation patterns in ad
vance.

UNDERWATER TELEPHONE GALLS TAKE
Long distance calls between Seattle and Vancouver Island,
in Canada, are now traveling by air . . .beamed on microwaves
from one radio-relay tower to another much as a search
light's rays are directed. These calls were formerly carried
through submarine cables on the floor of the 900-foot-deep
Haro Strait. But, because of extreme tidal action, the Haro
Strait telephone cable had to be replaced every three or four
years. Now, the new radio-relay system will do the same
communications job at less cost. '

1. Catalina Island, too, is being served by microwave
radio. This link crosses the twenty-five-mile ocean channel
between the Island and southern California mainland, sup
plementing service provided by underwater cable. This has
increased the number of telephone circuits available to
meet growing needs and saves installing additional cables.
