t The Bell Telephone Company
liavo had two young1" mbn, E. E.
Sibray and E. H, Darby on the
lino between' h'ero and Baker for
tho past week examining the
polrial They thoroughly tested
each po!6' aV to soundness, as to
length atVd as to distance ftfc
tween each pole.
On this report will likely" de
pend some improvements a
great extent, in the nature of
new polos 'and oqulprrie'nt. Th
Panhandle Is, a good' paying toll
line for lljo company and there
is no. reason apparent why the
company should not jVut Ih a
first class line and equipment be
tween here and the .county sea.
Of course this is only a sutfiosi
but it looks as if the Dolt people
were fiVireing on something of
this sort.
The Bell Telcphon system runs
from Baker to Ricljland where it
joins on -with the Bisher Tele
phene system whjch goes on U
Halfway. The local Telephone
exchange is a co-operative one'
known as The laglo Telephone
Company.
While not authentic, it is report
ed.that the Eagle Telephone line
will do some exter.sive repah
work in t'he ?;ear future, A new
line of poles has been strunp
along the'&hd leading out east
of town, though .for what com

Says Union High School Be
fore Another Year Will
Have New Home '
We do not vouch for thj as be"
ing authentic but well some
folks persist ih saying that the
directors of the ITnibW fifgh are
planning on gettj'ng the people
to furnish a'jpe'tnianent h'ome for
the Union H)W'$mo qt Rich
land. Sever'al ot th would,
should knoxv it people of the val
ley have recently mentkfn'eJ that
sucn wouia vt in.e csme ig it is
t ...1J L il 1 J V
to be hoped it wftj for the High
School is certainly old enough
and large enough to have per
manent home where those who
desire to travel through theh'gh
er branches of learning as set
forth by High School training
can do so wttn assurance tnat
every possible detail is being
carefully attended to. "
A proWfnent man recently re
marked that be'fore another win
ter the High School would be in
its own home. Whether he
knew what he was talking about
or not is not known hut follov;-
ing on tl is several others men
tioned the fact and from this it
is to be gathered thac a- move
ment is on foot to start the High
School right and make them feel
at home and not like visitors by
giving them a home to live in.
At present the High School is
occupying the uppar stiry oi the
Grammar School and from th?
way this atter institution :6s
igrowing it looks like before long
the High School will have no
place to study in, in fact if the
percentage of growth is mani
fest next year that was this the
Grammar School will likely have
to enlarge its quarters and take
possession of part of the upstairs.

IN ANDABOUTMIOWN
Last!- Friday the Ci'ty DaHb pro
ceeded tp try out the sedtlon of
the new concrete pipe line which
H to replace the old flume. It
certainly delivered the goods
smd thn some". It proved itseif
able to carry a great deal more
water than the old Hume. The
water ftrriVefd through at
the request of Wri?. WfTgTi't Who'
was suffering frdm lack of irriga
ting wattfr dn his piace'. As
soon ai this b t of irrigation is"
finBhted the line wilt be pbshe'cf
to a rapid finish. Ift will greatly
add to the attractiveness of Main
Street as it will be buried be
neath the surface of the ground
and will relieve the monotony of
looking at the ojd moth eaten
flume. It will also be a greater
fire protection as it will have
about ten feet of fall and by
shutting down the gate apd using
the engine to force the '-water it
can be made to throw a stream
of water over nearly any build-
,ing on Main Street; It will be
a convenience oh account of rub
bish not accumulating in the
same and it will be easy for the
property owners 16s benefit by it
without turning Ch'e whote ditch
off. Taken all together it is en
tirely wofth while'.
A PLEASANT SURPRISE.
On Monday afternoon Mfs, Si
las Saunders was most, pleasant
ly surprised by a visit fro n eight
of her old lady friends and neigh
bors to assist in celebrating hf.r
C4th birthday anniversary. . A
dainty lunch was served and a
most enjoyable time was had.
The ages of those present ranged
from 50 to 78; the total of nive
being oer 600 years.
Fred Cooper has added 3 con
crete driveway to his livery sta
ble that is certainly an improve
ment worthy of mention. It will
add a touch of beauty to this
hustling property that will be
appreciated by visitors.
