Miss Douglas, of the lower Willow creek school, had to close her school last week on account ot sickness. On Thursday she was seen in Cecil, en route for the Moore residence, where she visited for a few days. On Friday last the usual affairs of this place were disturbed by the alarm Issued from the Streeter home ' of a lost child. Matters assumed a degree of uncertainty until two hours later when the lost child "emerged from the engine room, where it had fallen asleep. Jack Hynd and son Herbert, ac companied by T. H. Lowe, the trust worthy postmaster of this place, autoed last Thursday to Edward Mc Daid camp near Buckingham Flats. Mr. Hynd reports ample supply of spring grass and that his lambs are doing splendidly upon it. Last Sunday the valley was aroused at the sight of two pedestrians break ing in a bucking motorcycle. Many sightseers craned their necks to as certain who the brave, intrepid ones could be. When, lo, W. II. Uouthe ot LundeU's and Miss Douglas of lower Willow creek answered to the unknown, parties. I W. B. Ewing, a resident of Willow I creek for 35 years, possesses one of the best productive alfalfa ranches In j the valley, whose products always I command the best priceB of the mar- ket. It is understood, however, that j he wishes to seek a change of climate, I and is closing a deal for property near 1 Roseb.urg, Ore., where he will engage , in dry farming and stock raising. His many neighbors bid. him God speed, i The clean up day ot District No. 8 i was somewhat disturbed by the con dition of the weather. However, a i faithful band ot workers engaged I themselves In the afternoon. The yard now presents a different appear ance. The shrubbery in front hag been given a careful trimming. Also a gate was constructed for the en trance opening and a few boards nailed on the fence. It seems, that for the lack ot nails, the yard en closure was not finished. The school was closed from Wednesday evening until Monday morning. The program held last Saturday evening in the Cecil hall was largely attended, notwithstanding the down pour of rain. There were 22 numbers pleasingly rendered to an apprecia tive audience.

Miss Annie Lowe presented a piano voluntary and ac companied for the musical part ot the program with fine credit. Our Easter Note. Our village responded to Easter, The rich festival ot the year, With tjioughtful service far dearer Than the clouds ot angry fear. There was a blue on the hlllB, There was a freshness In the air, There was a tinkle in the rills That divested us of cares. The Easter air was still alive -With the twittering of the birds, And the bees that flew from the hives, With their message of glad words. So may our closed-in hearts expand From the power of life within, That everywhere the Christ com mands: Be ye raised up from your Bins. C. G.
