The trip Irom Highway 62
up to Butte Falls, refreshing
for a resident o the valley
floor at almost any time of
year, is particularly pleasing
just now. The pastures and
ranch lands along the road arc
as erccn as can be, and the
patches of forest here and
there appear particularly
healthy. Even the brush is at
tractive. If you haven't driven
around Butte Falls for a few
months, you'll notice a slight
change in traffic pattern. The
through route, running cast on
Broad St., used to turn south
on Oak st., then cast on South
st. before turning south again
on Laurel ave. Now It tollows
Broad st. straight through to
Laurel ave., eliminating two
extra turns.
According to Klzzie Ed
mondson, city recorder and li
brarian, the Butte Falls City
Council now has sufficient
funds on hand to pave every
street in the city - quite an
accomplishment for a city of
300 off in the hills. Cily olii
cials arc hopeful of getting
the paving work completed
this summer.

national scries on baldness professional caller, called the
which ran in the MT last week
brought back memories of a
slory Father (who has but a
slim horseshoe shaped area of
hair left) used to tell. It
seems there once was a pro
cess that really would cure
baldness. The manufacturer
didn't claim that it would
make hair grow back. "This
process so shrinks the head,"
he explained, "that what little
hair you do have covers the
whole head."
