Garden Grove Gets Third-class Post
Office.

Postmaster Jennings Is feeling
much elated over the fact that the
postofflce at this place has been rails
ed to a third-class Office and the office
Is of sufficient standing In the class
to command salary of $1,100 per
year and 1t is also more than likely
that the department will put in FIX
lures and rent building. Hereto
fore this expense had to be paid by
the postmaster. The citizens are
much pleased that the business of
the community has increased suffl-
cient to place the postoffice in this
class.--Garden Grove Express.

In speaking of the election held In
Leon on the 18th inst. for the pur-
pose of voting on proposition Of the
city constructing a system of water
works. The Reporter thus refers to
the matter:
"A Better Leon" has won the day.
The Boosters have triumphed over
the knockers The citizens of Leon
have decided that they will be pro-
gressive, and leave nothing undone
to make a real Better Leon"
This is the way to do. Call the
old fogies by their right name. No
use mincing matters. The next
thing, Leon ought to pave. Then
they will be on the road to improve
ment. The bonds carried 626 to
253.-Corning Free Press.

Perhaps we are to have an old
fashioned winter, one of the kind
that will cause the early settler to
sit up and reflect. Such winter,
while new to most people now living,
might not be bad thing. It is well
for the present generation to have an
occasional touch or taste of what its
ancestors endured. 1t tends to make
people appreciate their predecessors,
as we'll as their present possessions
and advantages.
