n«> doubt will make a worthy sue-
c< ' • • r to hi» predecessor, and the
citv is indeed fortunate in his ac
ceptance.
There were also two vacancises on
the council to t>e filled. To fill the
u: x; red term of Roy V. Shelton
wh<> resigned and moved to Salem,
Frank Bartu was the unanimous
choice of the council. To fill the
seat made vacant by the death of
Bert Hollis, the council selected E.
C. Shelton.
Both these gentlemen
are too well known to need an in-
tr duction. but to say that they are
con i>etent men is strictly correct.
||l he council urges that all rewn
dents on Main street, whose walks
now need repair or replacing, first
consult the city recorder and the
ordinances. Mam street walks must
be cement.
One of the most important steps
ever undertaken by the council by
the way. it doesn’t cost the lavpayer
a cent in taxes was the steps taken
to organize a community club, this
to include every phase of the entire
community. After a thorough dis
ci - on of the Iwnefils to be derived
from such an organization, a motion
prevailed which instructed the city
recorder to write the Stale Chamber
of Commerce for a speaker and or
ganizer to come to Scio for the pur-
p - of addressing the people of the
community on the good such an or-
gai.i/ntipn can do where there is
everlasting team work.
Change of Ownership Comes
as Surprize-—Couey takes
Charge at Once
One of the most important busi-
neaa transactions of recent date In
Scio is the transfer of the Joe Bov
anovsky store to John Couey. Mr
Boyanovsky has l>een in busmtws at
his present location for the past
nine years, and has built up a thriv
ing trade. Mr. Couey is well known
here, and has driven the West Scio
stage for some time
The Peoples Store was dosed

Inventory is being taken, and will

The builbing and fixtures are also
being turned over, ami some alter
ations will I m * made in the mar
future. Mr. Boyanovsky will taxi
the Couey farm and stock, and will
probably make his horn- there.
The entire transaction is still
more of a possibility than a reality,
although the trade will probably be
made early next week
