been re-roofing, with aluminum roof­
ing, the grade school at Detroit. He
will complete the re-roofing job des­
pite his moving to Portland.
The Detroit grade school has been
given a “dress-up” during this sum­
mer. Various rooms have been fin­
ished in lovely pastel shades for the
opening of school. The cafeteria and
kitchen as well as the library were not
repainted and show a direct contrast
to the lively cream and pale green of
the hallway. The dressing rooms in
the gym have been repaired and new­
lines have been painted on the gym
floor all in preparation for the open­
ing of school, September 10. School
was formerly scheduled for opening
September 5, but the upset condition
of the community as a result of the
recent Sardine creek fire prompted
the decision school should open
Monday morning, September 10, in­
stead.
Many of the folks evacuated during
the recent fire are returning and
some of the woods work is opening
up again. In a short while it is
anticipated that everything will be
back to normal. Of course, business
as usual continued during the partial
evacuation. Most of the evacuees
were those who owned trailer houses
ami those of the vicinities of Mongold,
Fishers camp and the ranger station.
Mrs. Al Cokenour of Idanha who
was hired as teacher for the over­
flow group from the primary grades,
has resigned and another teacher is
being considered for her place. Mrs.
Charlene Hanan, who has for the
past two years taught English and
geography andd directed music in the
Detroit high, has tendered her resig-
nation, affective when the vacancy
caused by her resignation has been
filled.

through the fire towards Mill City,
but were halted by a blazing tree
which had fallen across the highway
near the dam.
With burning snags falling all a-
round, the trucks were turned around
for a hasty retreat. Only then did
the drivers realize that escape could
easily be halted in that direction also.
Tension mounted because Mrs. Wilson
was encased in a cast with a broken
leg and was. therefore at an extreme
disadvantage. However, retreat was
not blocked and they escaped from
the fire area without mishap.
Idanha Welcomes
Slight Rainfall
Idanha—The rain which fell Mon­
day night and Tuesday morning was
welcomed all over the state, and es-
pecially so here. However, it did not
extinguishedd the forest fire which
started a week ago on Sardine creek.
The rain will, nevertheless, enable the
fire fighters some headway in bring­
ing it under control. All danger to
the towns in this area is believed past.
Two tragic deaths are .however, in­
directly laid at the feet of the fire,
The first death came Tuesday evening,
