Issued Each Saturday by
J. D. Basy, one of the Butter Creek
bus drivers, had bad luck with his
car last week and had to have Ed-
mond Watson drive the bus in his
place. But then, if his car was not
on the bum more than likely he
would have to get some one anyway
as he has been having quite a time
with his arm that had a small pimple
on it, and it turned into a large car
buncle that has been causing him a
great deal of trouble.
Mr. Marks Is still putting off that
trip to Pendleton to get that license,
so it looks rather discouraging, but
we are sure if some one just gave
him a little encouragement that he
would get it.

highest aim in life, that is to have
“someone to care for me.” for he
went and got married the other day
to Mrs. Wilson and then came and
lived in the community for a week
before any Butter Creekers knew it
—and then we were all too ashamed
to charivari him after he had been
with us that long.
