WORKS BOARD IN
FAVOR Of WOOD
BLOCK PAVEMENT
Market Street Paving Question
to Be Settled at Next
Weeks Meeting.

Judging by the sentiment expressed
at yesterdays meeting of the Board of
Works it is certain that some action
relative to paving Market street will be
taken at the boards meeting next
Thursday. Surface Indications seem to
show nat wood-block pavement will
be recommended. n although some
opposition will be made to this char-
acter of paving by some members of
the board, it does appear now as though
the request of the Market Street Bust
ness Mems Improvement Association
will be ignored.
Lee Ottolengui. backed by a large
delegation of the associations mem
bers, appeared before the board yes
terday and again urged action in the
matter of paving Market street. Mr..
O~ttolengui said that while the associa-
ton and the majority of the store
keepers favored wocd-block, they would
be satisfied with any smooth, noiseless
pavement, and were DESTROYS only of
having something definite decided upon
at once
General Superintendent Winward, of
l.. Bamberger & Co.'S. said his COM
pany has between seventy-five and
eighty horses in constant service, and
after carefully investigating the merits
of various kinds of paving he was con-
WINGED that wood-block was preferable.
Commissioner Denman. after making
a number of inquiries, said that he
was of the opinion that the time had
arrived when some definite answer
should, be given the Market street peo-
pie, and urged that some action be

LITTLE MAY WAS QUEEN

Dear Aunt Laurie:
"Oh! let's have a May day party on
May day." said Ethel one April after
noon.
"That is a good plan," said May
'And you can be May queen" said
Ethel, "'cause you're name is May"
May ran into the house and said:
ooh, mamma, can I go and tell my
little friends about it?''
yes, you may" said her mother, so
May went out and told her friends.
1t was soon May day. EthePs father
took them to the woods and he made
them nice May pole. They had
very good time. May was all trimmed
in flowers.
When it was getting dark Mays
father came and got them. They had
forgotten the May queen. She was SO
lonely. The soft breeze and the hum
ming of the crickets made her doze off
to sleep. This is what she dreamed:
AS she lay there suddenly she heard
a rustling in the bushes and a little
elf jumped out.
"Oh!" said the queen, II would like
to know who you are"
MY name is Lilly and l am the
fairy queens messenger"
Please said May 'if you are going
back to Fairyland, could L go?'
THAT is just what / came for"
Soon the elf motioned to May to get
on her back. They flew through the
air. Presently they came to Fairyland.
Then the elf said: s"You are going to
be our May queen"
"Oh, goody!' said May.
They alighted on a rose. AS soon as
they touched the rose May awoke and
she found herself in her fathers wagon.

SWAN IN COOL STREAM
Dear Aunt Laurie:

Dear Aunt Laurie
Life on the farm is grand, indeed;
that is if it can be judged by my visit.
A letter arrived stating that 1 was to
spend my summer vacation on Aunt
Mary's farm. 1t was just nineteen
days before our three months vacation.
1 could hardly wait. The old farm was
about 100 miles east of Buffalo. n. Y.
Every night / would bring my geogra-
ply and trace the way and find the
cities l thought l was to go through
At last the day came. | packed my
trunk an d started for "Cannonsmouth
Farm" Uncle Willard was there to
meet me, with his horse and buggy.
The next day Albert, his son. showed
me about the farm and told me what
we would do / had been there before,
but was only years old. Soon I be-
came acquainted with the comfortable
place and with all the domestic ami
mails, especially with Dan, the shepherd
dog. He was quite an old fellow, but
active. He could jump over the fence
as IL it were q small box. He would
bring in the cows and do many other
useful things.
l learned to milk, too, for there were
eleven COWS. ] went out with the boys
Los Angeles herald., 1910-05-08

go hunting almost every day. Mary
and / would stay at home and do what
we wanted to. Sometimes we would
walk around the farm. We would eat
fruit of all kinds, and play under a
large tree in our front yard Mary had
a burro, and sometimes we would take
a ride on him. Sometimes he went
fast and sometimes slow, and some-
times he would not go at all.
Every morning we got up early we
climb a large fig tree in our yard and
eat figs until breakfast was ready.
We did all sorts of things while we
were there, but soon school was to
open, and we had to go home and
start to school again. We were very
sorry to go home and leave the farm.

VACATION ON THE FARM

Dear Aunt Laurie:
One summer I went to my grand
fathers farm for my vacation. He
has horses, cows, ducks and chickens
Every day went to town to get some
groceries, and when 1 got back 1
would take gun and go hunting.
In the evening / would sit and read
a book till it was o'clock and then
go to bed.
When Fourth of July came we shot
off cannon crackers and dynamite. At
night we shot off skyrockets and
flower pots. On Sunday we went to
Sunday school.
Sometimes we would go home on
horses and tell other boys and girls
what fine time we had had.
Two days before we came home we
went hunting and got some rabbits
The next day we had rabbit dinner.
In the afternoon we went horseback
riding, and in the evening the boys
and girls played games Then we went
to bed.
At 5 o'clock in the morning we got
ready and came home.

KILLED TWO CHICKENS
Dear Aunt Laurie:

Dear Aunt Laurie:
Early one morning my mother and
father started up to eastern Wash
ington. l was about five years old.
When we went up to Coolly City
papa went up to Hartline and put up
portable house. My mother visited
sister and father for week or so and
my uncle took me out where my aunt
lived. My cousin and 1 played black
man together. One Sunday my aunt
was going to have a chicken for dim
ner. Mother and / went to Sunday
school and when we came out my
grandmother was waiting for us, so
we went with her. When we were
half way home 1 started to cry.
Mamma asked me what was the mat
ter, and 1 said that I would not get
any chicken.
My grandmother said she would get
some chicken. So when we got home
my grandfather killed two chickens
and we had them for supper.

we went out to the pig yard where the
mother hog had some babies. I ran
into the house and called my mother
and she came out; so did my Aunt Vir-
ginia.
One summer when I was about a
year old l played in a sand pile. The
board around the pile was about foot
high. Mother could leave me there
but 1 could not get out.
One day the sand was taken away.
