CONCUKTK BRIDGES MUST RK PLACE WOODEN STRUCTURES Salem, Feb. 2.r Construction of permanent concrete bridges to replace the present wooden structures on the west aide highway in Polk coun ty was considered at a conference between the Polk county court and the state highway commission here today. This highwny has recently been designated as a pnrt of the feder al hiirhwnv svstem by the state high way commission and made eligible for federal aid in paving, but the unuea States bureau of public works will re quire the construction of permanent bridge before any federal aid is forth coming. Members of the Tolk county court expressed doubt a to the county's ability to finance its end of this im provement, but agreed to give the mntter further consideration. The two gap in Polk county, 5.3 miles be tween Holmes Gap and Rickreall, and 7 4 mil from Monmouth to the Ben ton county line, are nil that remain of an unbroken stretch of pavement on the west side now from Portland to Eugene.

Thi. play, by Booth Tarkington, is admir ably adapted to production bv ama teurs for it abounds in humorous, en tertaining situations. It is impossible to select members of the east fnr special mention, as the work of all was unusually well done. Kathleen Skin ner's interpretation of Cora, the spoiled, sentimental school cirl nJ John Dickson's rendering of her im pressionable brother, Bobby, were ex cellent foila for the more seirous part of Clarence, played by Burton Bell and Violet, by Violet Damon. It was all in all, a success from start to finish, and reflects great credit upon Miss Gobold to whose able coaching much of the success was due, and upon Mis Taylor, the Junior class adviser.

MAILLIE HELD TO GRAND JURY ON PRETENSE CHARGE W. R. Maillie was bound over to the grand jury Monday ly Justice R. W, Baker on the charge of obtaining money by false pretenses. Bail wos fixed at $1000, which was obtained readily. The complainant is Dean A. Scho maker of Sakm, and action is the result of a busineas deal between Maillie and Schomaker. Maillie pur chased from Frank Smith the fix tures and other material in the cigar store of Mr. Smith, paying $200 down, with a contract to pay $100 on June 1, 1922, and then $20 a month until the indebtedness was liquidated, and received a bill of sale for the material from Mr. Smith. A few months ago, Mr. Maillie and Mr. Schomaker entered into a partnership arrangement for the pur pose of starting a cigar store and billiard hall in the new town of Grande Ronde.

REEVES, PROMINENT LEBANON BUSINESS MAN, DIES SEVERAL REALTY DEALS ARE PERFECTED HERE The property at the corner of Fourth and E streets has been sold by William Bice of Milwaukie, Ore., to M. M.

BAUNS DENIED SALEM ENTRANCE CUy Turns Down Applica tion of Local Men to Operate Stage Baun Brothers have been compelled to discontinue their stage line be tween Independence and Salem. The city council of Salem refused to grant to them a franchise for entering the city. The matter has been under fire for some little time, the Salem council being divided on the question, with the final vote closing the gate to the Independence men. - The etage business would appear to be a closed corporation so far as Salem is concerned with J. W. Parker at the head. Mr. Parker has been operating a stage between Salem, Independence and Monmouth for some time and is giving quite satisfactory service, but just why he should be entitled to an exclusive franchise is a little hard to comprehend. . It is quite in the range of possi bility that Mr. Parker will be re quired to secure a franchise in Inde pendence, but it is not probable that he will be granted an exclusive one. H. HIRSCHBERG IS BACK FROM SOUTHERN SOJOURN A. M. Reeves, a prominent Lebanon business man and a brother of Tom Reeves of Independent did at his home in Lebanon' last Friday after noon of pleuro-pneumonia, after a few days' illness.

He is survived by his wid ow and one daughter, Mrs. Gertrude Smith, wife of Ray Smith, city at torney of Salem, and one son, Ralph H. Reeves, who was associated with his father in his various business interests. "California has been suffering from extreme "cold weather the same as Oregon," is the statement of H. Hirschberg, who returned here Mon day after spending several weeks in Southern California. "In company with a friend I drove in a car from San Diego to El Centro in a snow storm which was so fierce that it was blinding. The damage to the orange fmn in CTencrlino.lv heaw. but resi- . dents of the California country are Mllr tn nnint nut that this has been ihiimost severe winter in many jrs. Growing oranges is a hazar dous undertaking from a financial crmhlp. onlv the Wealthy ought to take. "In Los Angeles there is about tne usual crop of tourists this winter, Iowa and other middle western states furnishing the big number." Mr. Hirschberg crossed the border at Mexicali, but did not go on an anticipated trip into Mexico farther east, deeming it desirable to wait for a Ittle closer relationship between this country and Mexico, which is expected at an early date. , MAINTENANCE OF SWITCH IS POINT OF CONTENTION Candling The Southern Pacific company and the Independence Sand & Gravel com pany have locked horns over who should maintain theswitch leading to the gravel plant and the matter was presented before the public serv ice commission at Salem yesterday.

MONTH OF BIG ATTRACTIONS LISTED AT ISIS THEATRE March is to be a month of "big things" at the Isis theatre. The bookings have been completed for the entire month, and in the estimation of Ross H. Nelson, manager, is by all odds the best list in the history of this picture house. Mr. Nelson was. i', Portland Wednesday and perfect the final details of the month's schedule. Notwithstanding that many of the offerings are recognized topnotch features, by shrewd and careful management Mr. Nelson has been able to land these so that it would not be necessary to increase the regular price of admission. There is but one exception and this is the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse," upon which film makers absolutely refused to permit its use below the four-bit price for adults. In the Enterprise today will be found the complete schedule for the month. "DADDY" HEDGES FINDS PLACE FOR STRAY DOG The . number of "Daddy" Hedges' friends is limited only by the number of his acquaintances, and, indeed, with a whole townful of friends; "Daddy" has, within the past few weeks, ac quired a new champion a small black and tan dog, a tramp, passed the house, saw "Daddy" and seeing at once became not a tramp but a dog with an owner, for it was a case of love at first sight, at least so far as the dog was concerned, from that moment he belonged to "Daddy" and "Daddy" to him, and now the small dog occupies a corner of the daven port, and one of the best sofa cushions and woe betide the rash person who presumes to shake hands with "Dad dy" Hedges without consulting the wishes of this small dog, and now "Daddy" is sure of a four-footed pro tector, and the erstwhile tramp dog is sure of a home and plenty to eat r noon.
