Bad weather and sickness prevented many from at tending during t be first eek but it hoped coDditilng will be more favora ble tbla week. Rev. Cook was called to The Dallea to olliolate at a funeral there Monday, County Superintendent Nett visited Odell acbool Friday of last week. H. M. Poole, ot The Dalles, was in onr.village last Thursday. Quit a number of cases of sore throat are report? I. Up to this time nothing more serious than a few days illness has lesulted. Rev. and Mrs. Hoy Knelley ate borne from a visit in Portland. Mabel Kemp arrived home Sunday She has been visiting relatives in Ru pert, Idaho. She reports all quite well there except ber sister, Veva Crockett, who has been seriously ill of mng fever but was Improving when she left. Mia.

Still another bachelor dinner, James WiUon was the host at well as ohef. We saw the guests before the dinner this time and they looked so bappy in anticipation of the dinner we would know it was all that an epl oure oouid wisn it we bad not beard word about the roast beef, oysters. ooooanut cake, but we will not tell any more for we did not have one bite of the dinner. The entertainment will be given trlday night as advertised. ine literary consisted of a very short program postponed until after the services at the church Friday nigns. The C. E. meeting was good Sun day evening. Songs, prayer, talks by our Dome members and by liev.

Thomas Shears has been under the weather and for the last few days has beon oonflued to bis borne. Some people are very noisy in a prayer meeting, yes, vory demonstia tive, but at the end of every month or thirty days they become dormant and like tbe ground bog keep out of sight. r Tbe people In tbe Crapper district are now out with a paper soliciting aid for tbe purpose of building a new ohurob near the Crapper school bouse. These are tbe right steps to take. Build ohurohes where they are needed aud I feel sure that tbe Crap per district needs one. This is a very worthy cause and the promoters should be encouraged by tbe sur rounding distriot and build a oburoh where our young and old pet pie oan meet together so as to be edified by tbe preaching of Clod's word. We are informed that an elect tie ine will come into the distriot. We should encourage an enterprise like that as we need tbe light and our eleotrio light compauy of the town DUKES VALLEY. We are still having snow np here. Snow fell all day Saturday, Saturday night and part of Sunday. Alto gether snow has fallen to a depth of nearly 48 inches thl winter. Well tbe ground bog didn't see his shadow on the 2nd, 40 1 suppose we will get some good weather after a while. Next summer, maybe. Charles Stanton made a brand new pair of bobsleds last week and b'.tcbed on to them and started to town, but before be laJJot two miles from borne bla bobs pot tired and laid down on tbeir sides to rest and tbey are still resting. Moral What is worth doing at all is worth doing well. James Weart and father were down from on tbe hill last week and report snow Ave feet ''eep op there. Jim says he baa plenty of grub and a warm house and it can snnw until it gets ready to stop. Miss Pearl Glascock was up Isst week to look after ber homestead, but when told tbat tbe snow was six feet deep up there she oonoluded to let tbe b homestead look after itself for a wbile. W. II. MoClellan and D. J. Dodge went over tbe bill last Monday to look for a horse. After wading snow nearly sboulder deep in some plsoes they accidentally run on to the borse, which bad peiisbed in tbe storm. Tbey then nisde their way down to Urandpa Uniiin s where tbey took dinner. Tbey arrived home tbat night about 9 o'clock petered out Mr. Mo says be would not take that trip again for four horses, especially dead ones. Roy blooum has been laid np with a bad kuee for some time, having strnck It with a batobet wbile cutting kludling wood. Mrs. Slooum returned to Hood River last week after an extended visit in Michigan with relatives and friends. Of course she Is glad to get home again. Fred Chandler and wife were visit ng In Dukes Valley Saturday and Sunday. Fred says tbe next time b goes visiting In such a snow storm you oan kick b m out of tbe country, Don't mind a little thing like tbat I red, it Is not like having to get out andl cut oord wood or grub stumps in toe snow. Onr school closet this week on Mon day, February 4th, tbe present teaoh er a term expiring, we nave money enough in tbe treasury to pay for an othei month of school and would like tolget a teaober for another month, After tbe snow leaves a teaober oan seoure tbe job by applying to E. T, Foils or Oscar Cameron. A party of young folka gathered at tbe stoie building ot Mr. Whistler last Saturday evening and en loved a little danoe. Tbe boys are talking of fixing up tbe building and using it ror a coxing room and to dance In now and then. We see by the News-Letter that two soinebodyi are nearly quarreling over cue name or tbls neigbborbod. One wants it Skunk Corner the other wants it Hog Holler. Now bovs don't qnarrel over a little thing like tbat. it don't pay to quarrel over a place wbeie it gets so cold tbat it freezes the handles off the plow and tbe oars have to tire up with orooked wood In older to get around tbe curves. Looks like any old name would do for a place like that. Well we bave had sleiebinn ud here since the 3rd of January but tbe young folka don't sleigh ride very muob because tbe bovs tbat bave a sleigh bave no girls and the boys that have gills bave no ileigha Get In and dig boys don't let tbe old mar rled folks get ahead of you thatway. Mls Evah Thomas, who took the eighth grade examinations held at the Rose Hill acbool January 24 and 2j. received her diploma from tbe county superintendent. Mr. Peter Saltzman conducted tbe examination. I Mark E. Thomas ipent tbe flist part of tbe week at Tbe Dallea looking for horses to bny.

As we become better known our customers are coming from greater distances for our .Watches, Clocks and Jewelery. Our Special Departments are increasing, and we are Busy OAN WE HELP YOU P LARA WAY, The Jeweler Tbe following report and recom mendations of tbe finance committee was submitted at tbe adjourned meet ing ot tbe council last night: Hood Kiver, Ore., fen. li, 1907. To Honorable .Mayor and Common Council, city of liood Hiver: A careful examination of the reports of tbe city treasurer and teoorder for tbe last quarter ending December 31, 1D06, and also tbeir annual repwt for the year 1906, has been made by this committee and, aside from an error in tbe recorder's report of 75 oenta in tbe amounts turned over to tbe treaa urer, we believe tbem to be correct. The recorder has deposited tbe above amount with tbe treasurer sinoe Jan uary 1, 1907, and we tbeietore recom mend tbat their respeo' lve reporta be accepted by tbe council. We rind the aotual balances and de doits in tbe respective fund aooounta Jauuay 1, 1907, to b at follows: (ieueral fund, balanoe, $ 464 04 Hewer fund, deficit, 4,636 41 Road fund, bamnce, 1,148 92 water ruuu, balance, 7 24 We recommend an alteration in tbe present system of recorder for keeping toe cuy s accounts, ceginning Jana ary 1, 1907, tbat tbey may show at all times tbe funds received from the county treasurer and all otber re oeipts wbioh come direct to tbe oity tioasurer; also any disbursements by too city treasuier aooount Interest paid on warrants redeemed: tbat tbe oity treasuier report amount of these reoelpts or dtsbuisements to tbe oity recorder whenever same ia received or paid out. Ibis we know tbe treasur er win be pleased to do and tbe re corder bas arranged to adopt tbe few ebangos necessary, which will enable mm or any citizen to ascertain tbe exact condition of tbe finances at any 11ms ana also euuuie tne recorder to make a complete report 101 each ouar- ter and year, which hat not been done heretofore. Ike balances as shown by the city treasurer's books are not sate guide for the reason that there are often many watranta floating aooui ror weens berore Being d resent ed for payment.. Ine deuuit in the sewer fund should be covered by a special assesBmenat as soon as possible. There are to our knowledge unpaid bills outstanding to make the deficit reach $3000. Tbe oity will be required to refund small amounts from time to time, as prop erty whiob has been for delinquents sewer assessment ia redeemed by tbe owners, it having been sold for more than tue actual assessment and costs. Ibere will be some added ex Dense in m iking tbe assessment above reoom mended and also for interest on sewer warrants now unpaid for want of ruuds. We therefore recommend tbat tbe rate or this levy be sufficient to raise tbe total sum of $5750, inolud ing tiny money yet due to the sewer tund.
