ATHENA CONTINUED. Athcnn, Ore., Nov 13. Athena was originally Centervllle. It was given this name Ikx-huho It was the central point of a large scoihj of rich country the natural gathering ilnt of pooplo and ivMiurces from eyory direction. Naming the Town. Kirk & lUchards laid out the town In 1878 and tho postofllce was also established the same year with W. T. Cook Jirst postmaster. The malls wero continually getting mixed with the malls nf n Washington lwatolllre ot the same liunio nnd it was decided to change the name of the town and postofllce from Centervllle. T. J. Kirk, who was elected to the loglsla ture which convened 111 1S89, secured the passage of a bill changing the name to Athena. There was no par ticular reason for selecting tho name, except tliat the name. Athena, did not appear In the iostal guide at that time, and the ieoplo ot that section of Umallla did not fear further mix Ing of tlie malls. First and Present Officers. Immediately upon the passage of tho bill Incorporating tho town, of ficers were selected and tho town en tered upon a prosperous organization which lias continued to the present time. The first ofllcers of the town of Athena wero: E. R, Cox, mayor; A. A. Daniels. J. Uloch, S. A. Moloney nnd J. U. King, councilman) D. T. Brumniett, treasurer; G. W. Todd, recordder; Jame C.

It owns a good town hall and jail and the land upon which they are situated ;owns its waterworks, fire department and has two acres of splendid stone quarry, from which material Is taken to pave its streets. It also owns a rock crusher, which it claims is tho exclusive one used by a municipal corporation in Umatilla county. It also claims the distinction of having the longest and only rock paved street In the county. This street extends entirely through the main portion of town and is always dry and pleasant to drive over. The town has ample means to run its cur rent expenses and money besides. The taxes are low, and their Is little complaint hoard in Athena. Schools. Athena's public school Is her spe cial boast. She claims that from the day that a man by the name of Gal loway opened a little subscription school in 1873 in a small building constructed by the pioneers, the school hns ever been on the advance. Her school building' now Is especially Iointed out as one of Umatilla's most substantial institutions. It is valued at about $15,000, Including grounds and other property and no one who sees It would dispute it. The district is bonded for $12,000, but tho interest is kept paid on this property and it Is scarcely felt by the taxpayers, The present school board la In high fayor with the teachers ana citizens. It is regarded as a business uoard that uses economy and good judgment In all transactions. Tho board consists of: W. H. Reeder, (chairman), E. H. Caton and A. M. Glllls, directors and O. G.
