Soda Springs Children Are Forced to Ride 22 Miles Daily to Ashland Though Pinehurst School Only Two Miles Distant County Court Will Seek Remedy- It 'developed this, morning, in a heating before the, county court relative to changing the boundary line between the Pinehurst and Soda Springs school districts, lo cated in the mountainous districts of Jackson county, that school chil dren of the Soda Springs district, ranging from S to 11 years of age, wore traveling in an auto bus to Ashland, 22 miles away, with the Pinehurst school a scaiy. two miles distant. The county. court announced to the delegation present from tho two districts that steps would be taken for tho remedying of the condition, Tho Pinehurst. dliitrlct desires to furnish schooling for tho Soda Springs children and also asks that it be given a strip of land two sections wide, with an as sessed valuation of $i3i!,t)0n. Soda i Springs oblects solely to being di- vorced from the assessed valua tion. The town of Lincoln, is located on tho boundary line between the two districts, children of the Soda Springs district, living in Lincoln, travel 1!2 miles for their three It's. Those living on the Plneliurst side travel two miles. Injustice to Young County .Judge Sparrow declared that the Ashland trip "was a ter rible drubbing to administer to a child who could not help himself." Commissioner (!eo. Alford held that the jaunt was contrary to the state laws, and said "there is not. a man In the county who would travel 211 miles to work six or eight hours and then travel the same read home." He said if a hired man on a ranch was asked to work ten hours, "the farmer had his hands full right then, and how!" The Soda Springs childrcu have j1o arise at. 0:30 In the morning ''and leave home by 7 o'clock, to get. to the Ashland school before the last bell. W. Hopkins of the Soda Springs district said that the ride had no ill effects on the children a'ld that last year they learned more than when they walked a short distance to school, Hopkins had no objec tion to culling down the hits travel hut he did object to adding any more to the1 valuation of the Pine hurst district. The Soda Springs district is thinly populated and lias f school children. Would Furnish Room J. M. Henry, founder of the town of .Lincoln, said ho was willing to fur'i"h a school room. He said that Pinehurst residents felt their territory should be. increased to make up for the cost of providing schools. Commissioner Alford proposed that the Pinehurst district .no ix- tended to the summit of the tjre?.i-hi'-rings mountain and all the chil dren 'lu tho school be provided with a school within walking dhlniu'e. The hearing also revealed that 7 the road over which tho school bits must travel is one of the most dan girotis in tho county and the Cli matic conditions tho most severe, with snow four feel deep and howl ing blizzards the rulo in tho "eid of winer. School Superintendent Suwinne Homes Carter, a member of the boundary board, felt that the dis tance to Ashland should be short ied by changes in the district line. No .definite, action was t:iken to nay, final action being deferred iritil an agreement can bo readied between the two districts, 'i he Mtiuty court desires to adjust the caso satisfactor ly to both sides. Tho remainder of the session was devoted to routine mutters and oUTovnl of mid-month bllli. i A band uf gypsies which had on cum ied south of the cily some jlw.ys beyond the fair grounds were : ordered h, move ,,,, i,y sheriff Jen nings this morning, and that ofl'i jclal stale,! i n,,, eily this noon ;ihat If they bad uot heeded his I orders he would take forcible steps : to make them hasten en. . Chief of Police .Mcl'reUle when apprcd of this made urrangc- litems to see Hint lll.-y ,lid nut ; locate in this city and if possible to keep them moving en If they did appear. liefore Ibis be Ini.'l found a gypsy woman located on I Knst Main street In a hallway inc. I ! paring to do business us a palmist. : When he ordered tier tu move on ! she pulled a city license on him. I ; which paper she had obtain,,, I at; jlhe eily recorder'., office. There- ! jl'ore she was not In, 'tested. j City lteeurder Alford who issued her the license ut lo a day for 1 tl ' uay.i m conformity with the city j ordinance governing such matters, i says that he cannot refuse a li cense to any one unless he knows the applicant Is unworthy etc. ! I Huth Iticorcler Alfurd and Chief MeCredlc say the re is no ordinance j (forbidding gypsies to locate or camp in the city, but for years the police have been ordering such ' bands to move on and such orders j have never yet been contested by I the wanderers. ! So far as could be learned this ; afternoon no gypsies had appeared , at the fair grounds or hud. tried to ; roam the city telling fortunes and ' the like.

The grading, one of the most difficult pieces of work, is finished, the hangar is receiving the finishing touches and the vari ous concessions are taking posses sion at Ibis time, he said. I. ion .1.
