School Officers

By BEULAH NICHOLS
Very little interest was shown in
the annual school meeting Monday
afternoon. Qnly eighteen people were
present. Harvey Bauman was re

Citizens of this community might
well have imagined themselves in
western Oregon when they awakened
Monday morning. A dense fog had
descended during the night and re
mained until quite late in the morn
ing. This is most unusual for this
section of the state. Old-timers say
that they never before have seen fog
here so late in the season.
Rain continues to fall at any and
all times of the day, but we haven't
heard anyone objecting. The farm
ers say that the abundant moisture
which has fallen during the past two
weeks has helped . the wheat im
mensely but would have been of
more benefit had it come about two
weeks earlier.
