IN covering the usual amount of news

have been seriously delayed. It seems
strange. yet 1t is true that the high

in Lewistown that was capable of re-
placing the broken parts Of the Mer-
genthaler Prof. Crane gave the mat
ter his personal attention, and through
this and the fine equipment of the
high school shop the repairs were COM
pleted late Wednesday afternoon. The
fact that the delinquent tax list came
in for publication just at this time
further complicated matters, but with
the aid given by Prof. Crane and the
