Saturday afternoon to further plan«
for the organisation of the forks of
the Santiam into one big communi­

a slow and steady growth meant a
longer ami more useful life than a
mushroom growth and a correspond­

The club was favored by a return
visit from M.J. Duryea, who came
t<> render whatever assistance he
could in getting the club started off
right and on a permanent basis He
is more than willing to do his share
ami therefore expects the communi­

alone, for all would benefit.

The annual school meeting fur
District no. 95 will be held at the
high school in Scio on Monday, June
19. beginning at 2 p. m. Aside
from the budget meeting, which is
held in November, this meeting is
very important. It is the time when
the board of districts bring before
the taxpayers their program for the
year, and is also the time when a
director is to tie chosen
These
meetings are also the time when the
imtrons should avail themselves of
the opportunity to ask questions
and thus acquaint them*rlve» with
what the districts have to do. Il is
also the lime when liettermrnts in

that are nonessential. These things
will all develop* by asking ques­

laws that are Greek to ti e average
patron, and these can lie explained
al this meeting if we do not get too
excited and adjourn as «oon as a
director is elected. We are too
anxious to adjourn and then leave
everything to the directors '«. «Io so
we can cue« them for doing what
thev think l>e«t in the atwence of
any Instructions from the patron*.
Dame Rumor Say*
the
It ha« been rumored on
streets that J. A Hrudka went to
Portland Monday u> purchase new
equipment for hi« mill that wa*
burned last we«-k. Repeated effort
over the phone to reach Mr Hrudka
ha* failed to get him. and we are
unable to verify the rumor, It is
hoped that the rumor is correct,
and that the mill will *><«n I m - in
ojieration. The community m-ed«
the payroll, and we want to see Mr.
Hrudka prosper a* w«-ll as all uthvr
business.

thrills were plenty to th<>«e who like
to see human livings race with life.

his life when he made a rearend
collision with another machine that
was slowing d«wn because of roll­
alor trouble, a thick cloud of dust
causing the accident. The ■perlai-

race*, so it is said, and on Monday
