The annual school meeting held in the school building Monday afternoon was well attended as school meetings mostly go and without so much as the shadow of a protest F. J. Taylor was unanimously chosen director for the three year term and J. W. Jacobs was chosen to succeed himself forclerk, a position he has fdled for many years with credit to himself and profit to the district. F. A. Hawk, who has served three years as director, the past two years as chairman of the board, was given a hearty vote o f thanks for the excellent service rendered during his incumbency. A communication from County Super intendent J. Percy Wells, was read by the clerk in which many recommenda tions germain to the best interests of the schools were made. Clerk Jacobs also read the full an nual report of the condition of the dis trict which was approved by a unanim ous vote of those present. The report in brief follows: Number of persons of legal school age in'the district Nov. 25, 1911; 365 of which 176 were male aod 1X9 were fe male. Number of teachers employed 11. Number of school rooms in operation 11 . Number of months school taught dur ing year 9. Number of library books on hand 366. While driving to town from her sub urban home east of Bear creek last Sunday evening, accompanied by her two young daughters, Mrs. Wm. Puhl met with a serious accident us a result of her team bolting. One of the ani mals was inclined to wildness and about the time they struck the pavement on east Pine street the bit broke and the horse bolted. In front of Mayor Cow ley's home the rig collapsed and the occupants were thrown to the ground with serious results. The youngest child o f six years sustained two very serious cuts on the thigh the femoral artery being closely grazed. Bonita, the oldest daughter, a girl of nine, was badly bruised and received other in juries. Mrs. Puhl received a bad scalp wound and a number of painful bruises. Dr. Anderson responded to the call quickly and gave all the injured im mediate attention. One of the horses in the team, a quiet one and a family pet, sustained a badly broken leg, a fracture occurring both above and be low the knee. The horse was a favor ite with the family and was taken to the ranch where the owner hoped that under the care of a veterinary surgeon he may recover. The injured children are all reported as improving. After several months layoff Twohey Bros, resumed work this morning on that section of the Pacific Highway be tween this city and Medford and it is understood the work will be pushed to early completion. The work was well underway last fall but on account of the rainy season coming on work had to be suspended until spring. The contractors request the traveling public to take notice that the road will be closed until the work is completed or that it will at least be in a condition unfit to travel. The public is therefore requested to avoid that road for the present as well for their own comfort as for the convenience o f the workmen. T h ey’re Still A t It!
