10 A FRIDAY. AUUuol J. laoi Tablets By R. E. NEALON Mail Tribune TabU Rock Correspondent We have noticed many different creatures traveling our road lately, but a new one to these parts is a large bear sighted a few nights ago by Merlin Quackenbush as he was coming home from his job at Camp White. He didn't see the bear until he was so close that he had to skid his tires to avoid hitting it. Bruen, quite unconcern ed, sat down in the road and later went on his way. Mrs. Ray Doran, while moving some pipes on the lawn Wednesday, let one touch an electric wire over head which gave her a severe shock. It might have been serious, as conditions could not have been better for a terrific jolt. She was barefooted and standing in water. . Frank Straus, the Sams Valley realtor, a brief visitor here recently says that since there are many Negroes moving up this way, a realtor must be very cautious about how he treats them as prospective buyers. Ac cording to Oregon law, they are to be treated as others, regardless of color. Mr. and Mrs. Donald S. Richardson left by plane Wednesday. Donald was a delegate to the Federal ju dicial conference for the Ninth Circuit Court at San Francisco. a Since we are not overflowing with energy we are going to copy some items from the secretary's book of the Arrow Head Gazette, published by the Arrow Head Literary society back about 101 3. During its lifetime it had about a dozen editors, according to a news item. We had locally a Suffragette Club of about a dozen members who were pledged to keep out of any marriage entanglements. Agate, our neighbor community, had a grange which some local people belonged to. The Arrow Head Club was working to get electric lights in the school house where they met. For several years after our community got electricity, home owners paid 25 centa a month for each light. There was no restrictions on size of bulb, and they could be kept light ed all the time; meters were unheard of. Mostly there was a light fixture for each room. A four room house had four lights which cost $1.00 a month, which many thought was too high, and stayed with the kerosene lamps. This item was written In July 1915. "Binding and haying are order of the day; some of the grain is so heavy that it has fallen down." Among the many editors of the Arrow Head Gazette was a local man still around, so we will copy his edti torial. "We are with Bryan heart and soul in his peace movement, and believe that no one should ever fight while he is able to run. We agree with our Arrow Head president that if you are struck on one cheek turn the other, but if you are struck on the nose that Is different." Thought for the day If at first you don't succeed, try try again. Street Lights Hornbrook; Picked For Fire District Go On In Candidates By CATHERINE CHAPMAN Hornbrook - Tuesday, July 24, was the "Night of the Lighls" in this small com munity in the Siskiyou foot hills. For on that night, street lichls were tinned on for the first lime in the almost B0 yenr history of this historic old former gold-mining town. At present there are eight lights, located at strategic spots downtown and in the outlying district of Henley. Additional lights may be add ed if more persons request them. This is a project sponsored locally by members of Horn brook Grange No. 301, and more Information may be ob tained by contacting the Mas ter, Mrs. George Michels, or anv Grange member. Cost of each light is $2.00 per month, and in most in stances is shared by those in dividuals requesting them and benefitting the most by them. All lights must be Installed on poles already existing over public streets. Individual hills are paid each month to the Grange, which, In turn pays Ihp tnial amount to the Pa cific Power and Light Co. ... FIRE DISTRICT Hornbrook-SUkiyou Coun ty Supervisor Earl Ager of Tulclake. representing district one, attended a meeting Tues day evening of the board of directors of the Hornbrook fire district. Open to the public, the meeting was held in the dry kiln building of the Black Mountain Lumber Co. and was exceptionally well attend ed by interested local citizens. One purpose of the meet ing was to propose names of persons to be appointed new fire commissioners to replace those whose terms have ex pired. SiigRcsled as new replace ments were Al King. John Rosenberg and Tony Shelley. These niuncs will be present ed by Aucr to the Board of Supervisors al their next meeting on Aug 14. and the appointments will follow. It was pointed out by vari ous members of the board of directors the urgency of erect ing a building as soon as pos sible to keep the fire truck in, and the methods of secur ing money for the building and the lot to put 11 on. One source of revenue would be to expand the fire district so as to make It cor respond essentially with the boundaries of the school dis trict, thereby making more tax money available, and also making the services of the fire district available to more per sons. Ager advised the group that he would attend the first meeting called by the new board of directors, and will have District Attorney Albert Newton Jr., accompany him and they will discuss the legal aspects of enlarging the fire district, and the method of accomplishing this aim. Additional fire fighting equipment is badly needed also, it was stated by Al King and others, and this problem, too, will be taken up with the new board. At the conclusion of the meeting. Ager spoke briefly In opposition to the new reap portionment proposition that will appear on the November ballot in California. This proposition has been given a new number - 211 - and replaces No. 15 on a previous ballot which was defeated in all but Los Angeles county. Passage of this bill would give five more state senators to Los Angeles county, and one each to a number of other counties In the central and southern part of the state. At a meeting in Sacramen to last Friday, which Ager attended, nine state senators and 62 supervisors pledged all-out support to trying to educate the people concerning "the treachery of this dastard ly bill."
