South Fork Guard Resigns
J. W. Morris, who for the past
year has been in charge of the in
take of the Oregon City - South
Fork Pipe Line, resigned this
week, his resignation becoming
effective at once.
The resignation of Mr. Morris
is the culmination of a series of
jealousies and troubles, which
has been current among the mem
bers of the Oregon City Water
Board, since its formation.
It is with regret that the many
local friends of Mr. Morris learn
ed of his leaving and best wishes
are extended to him by all.
Dick Githens of Currinsville is
mourning the loss of a fine Collie
dog, which was killed by an auto
mobile last week.

the amount of ni o n e y p a i d by
cheese factories for mi l k was

of the meeting would have been
of interest to all local farmers

presented and it is likely a form
of organization will be adopted.
