E. Baumann has returned from Hot
Lake, Oregon, where he has spent five
weeks undergoing treatment for rheu­
matism.
He was relieved of his
trouble and is enthusiastic in his
praise for the sanitarium at that place.
Skilled medical care and good nurs­
ing, hot sulphur baths and mud baths
and a careful dietary are reported to
be doing wonders for the large num­
ber of patients there.
George Metzger has been elected to
teach the Hillsview school next year.
This is of special interest because of
the fact that this was the first school
which Mr. Metzger taught. A. E. For­
sythe, clerk of the district, who
| signed the contract with Mr. Metzger,
was one of his first pupils. There
are about 35 pupils in the school. A
new playshed, 24 x 48, was built dur­
