The growth of Enterprise hav ing doubled in the paat few years is such that the Increase of school children demands school accommoda- fcttis -in excess of those now af forded.

The plans are now drawn up. The remodelling will greatly improve the architectural appearance of the present school buIUlng, and provide for the growth of the young popu lace. The school officials, are com .nended for their foresight in. this natter, which la a characteristic one it Enterprise's "enterprise," and will no doubt press the matter to a splendid completion.

An old horse, a pitiable picture of advanced age and equine despair, fell into Uie dry and unused well la the rear of the Enterprise Press jtflce last Friday night. The animal was discovered In the morning. Ac cording to the looks of the hor3e and the examinations of his teeth by local authorities he must have passed some twenty blistering sum mei and come twenty rigorous, win ters. Marshal Hug was communi cated wiith, and responded at once, bringing aid. He dug the animal from the well, and later men ar ranged a derrick, getting the old fiellow on his feet, when he walked 3ff. No owner hae yet been, found, xhe brands on the animal are as .'ollows: "R W" on the right should re and "F" on the left flank.' This brand does not appear in the brand Jook of Wallowa county.

CEMETERY WORK. i The Improvement League nasi ap pointed Thursday, May 26, as clean up day at the cemetery.

The essential part of any device for the study of the starry millions the suns, planets, couiets and the oebulue that are perhaps uew worlds In the making is the leus or the optical train that consists of a series of lenses,. It Is; this that makes the modern science of astronomy possible. There is abso lutely no other human occupation that requires the. accuracy of observation and the delicacy of touch that are requisite for the making of the finest lenses. These are the most perfect products ' of human bands. It may convey some Idea of the labor requir ed in the making of a large lens to say that at least one year's time Is re quired for the grinding and polishing of a thirty inch object glass. A little lens two Inches In diameter requires the unremitting care and attention of a skilled workman for two or three days. It .la easy, then, to see why It to that even lenses of high class photo graphic work are costly. A forty Inch object glass for a targe telescope can. not be made In much less than four rears' time, and if everything does not go just right It may require much longer than that. Kansas City Star.

"Here are two wdlng rings that 1 have Just made over," said the jew eler. "They are for Bohemian women. They lost their own rings, so they had their husbands' rings cut down to fit. That is a custom in their country. Both husband and wife wear wed ding rings there. If the man loses bis ring he has to buy new one, but if the woman loses bers she wears ber husband's. 1 do a good deal of that kind of work. Other women who lose wedding rings just buy another one and say nothing about It. but these wo men are too conscientious for that' Usually I have to make the man's ring smaller, but once In awhile It has to be spliced to make It fit The women are always considerably cjiagrined over the splicing and offer all kinds of explanations to account for their big fingers."

' Tea In Paraguay.' When tbe natives of Paraguay drink tea they do not pour It from a teapot into a cup. but Oil s goblet made out of a pumpkin or gourd and then suck up the hot liquid through a long reed.
