HAROLD CLARK
GORED BY BILL
Silverton Harold Clark of the
Waldo Hills community owes his life
to the clear-headed action of his two
brothers.
Late Friday afternoon Harold's
father told him to lead a Jersey bull
kom a corral into the barn. The an
imal had never shown signs of vl
elousness and the boy took hold of
the ring in its nose which seemed
to anger the bull, and he attacked
the boy, knocking him down and
goring him from the back, stamp
In? on him, injuring him critically,
breaking a number of ribs and, it is
feared, inflicting internal injuries.
The two brothers, who were out
side the corral, saw their brother's
predicament and one jumped astride
bull's back, threw his arms around
its head, blinding it, and as he back
ed away from his victim, the other
brothers pulled the unconscious boy
through the gate. Neither one of
the brothers was hurt. The injured
boy is reported recovering.

likely to creep in this time. On the
last occasion the governor of that
state refused to honor the extradi
tion papers but this time all the
prellini liar res have been settled sat
isfactorily over the wires prior to
the sheriff's departure and it will be
a more or less formal matter taking

roofs, preventing other buildings
from burning.

boys und many people from Stay-
ton came but were too late to save
anything, but they helped prevent

there due to the fact that the prev
ious bids, the lowest of those re
ceived being $2,500, were submitted
on a different basis, some being on
so much per route and some on so
much per pupil. It was the concen
sus of opinion that the bids should
be based on the cost per student.
The Dallas contracts for three
routes were accepted, two of the
three going to Raleigh Middleton
and the third to Arthur B. Woods,
Middlcton's contract being $1,425
and Wood's for $1194.
The next meeting of the board is
subject to the call of the secretary
and will be held following the receipt
of the information that Indepen
dence has received the bids called
for.
