Dorris Inscribes As Highlight in DORRIS The year 1940 was a banner year for Dorris in achievements, publicity, projects finished and projects started. Ac cording to Mrs. D. A. Ballard, secretary of the Dorris Improve ment league, there have been more inquiries made in 1940 per taining to possible investments in Dorris than in any previous yeor since the inception of the league and the new league fold ers have found much favor. A $20,000 water bond was vot ed whereby a new and larger water tank, tower and piping is being installed without addition al taxation to the property own ers. Dorris water hus already been tested and found to be 100 per cent pure. There has also been recorded a decided increase in outgoing and incoming South ern Pacific Railway freight ship ments. The bank, Butte Valley State bank and one of the few inde pendent banks now existing, has a financial statement for Novem ber, 1940 which shows an in crease of approximately three hundred thousand dollars over the same month in 1938. There have been twenty new homes built and approximately fifteen homes remodeled and improved In 1940. The post office has had to add another lock box section to handle the increased volume of mail. One of the most favorable in dications of this 1940 publicity has been the acquisition of the Mahlum-Aasgaard interests. W. N. Mahlum, who h&s a large con tracting business in botli Klam ath Falls and Bly, learned of the assets of Dorris and came to in vestigate last September. This visit resulted in contracts for the Olin Evans home on Third street, the erection of twelve modern and attractive cabins grouping the Star tavern owned by Ardon Fenwick, and the Sieman home on Butte street. Mahlum bought four lots on Main street, three of which are now occupied by the Mahlum Aasgaard, Inc., complete home building service yards and of fice. The fourth will have an of fice building erected on it. The Mahlums also bought of Mrs. George Otto the brick building she erected in July, 1938 almost across from the bank. This has been remodeled and comfortably and attractively furnished for a high class hotel and rooming Export Furniture Upholstering Frta Estimates Newest Lines of Upholstering Samples Chns. S.

Aasgaard of the firm is also from St. Paul where for many years he was 'the corpora tion attorney for the ( Lamport Lumber company with 'its eight een Minnesota plants He 'will bring his family to Dorris to live as soon as the schools are out In the spring. He will have- his California license to practice as attorney as soon as permissible by the law. It is said neither persons, in stitutions nor communities stand still. They either progress or slide backward. So it seems as if Dorris is not content 'to slide backward but his started a healthy, steady, movement for ward; increasing in its stride its quota of civic-minded- and financially solid citizenry.
