Believe it or not, a rat was the
oause of real consternation at the Er­
nest Watkins home on Monday eve­
ning. In the evening it was discov­
ered that the telephone would not
work.
Even the nearest neighbors
-•ould not be called. Due to the still
»erious fire hazard this was almost a
alamity.
After much family dis­
cussion, investigation showed that the
»utside wire had been cut or gnawed
completely in two.
A rat was the
fuilty party. All which brings to
nind that the West Coast telephone
company really deserves a vote of
hanks for keeping this line in such
,'ood condition during the emergency.
As a usual thing the phone service
>n rural lines is apt to be erratic but
»rompt replies from central and clear
ines were the rule during the fire.
On Tuesday the lines were busy again
when new fire broke out in the
ogged off area of the Garoutte camp,
rhe extreme heat of the day burst
tmoldering fires into flames and new
billows of white smoke poured out of
Iall”s and Fishtraps creeks.
The Cornwell ranch and the Frank
Miller place were endangered Tues­
day with the renewed fires. Russell
Hill, on Hall’s’ creek, was threatened
Two carloads of CCC fire fighters led
by Warden Huffman battled all af-
emoon and watched through the
light. As long as there is no strong
wind the danger is not so great but
a strong wind would spread the fire
into virgin timber as well as several
racts of second growth fir, which
would bring danger to the entire
community.
Mr. and Mrs. Leon Pauli and
George left on Saturday for their
new home near Goldendale, Washing-
on. The best wishes of the entire
■ommunity go with them. Both Mr.
and Mrs. Pauli have resided in this
district for a great many years.
