LOCAL OPTION

The result of the local opt.on elec.

been held at that lime no sLch major

returned as was given in the election
just held. Temperance sentiment has
been strengthened by the closing of
the aloOn. Th is particularly no.
ticeable In prec nets where the law
has be n rig dy enforced. People
have learned that they not only can
get along without saloons, but are
better off without them. While in
two locations in this county the law
has not en- enforced as it should
have teen, conditions are new rtheless

For three yea past the bride has
been engaged IN the public schools
at Glenns Ferry As teacher of the

cial equipment for the important and
difficult task o. laying the base lines
and foundation for future citizenship
is most deeply ap. .reciated, and her
withdrawal theretrom is now most
keenly dep.ored by the patrons and
pupils, whose regerd for the saccess.
full teacher is a SO extended to most
charming and worthy personality.
Mrs. Corker came to Gems Ferry
from Wetmor Kansas where she had
pursued the profession for some
years.
So well known Is Mr.. Corker that
very little can be said of him which
is not already known. He is a pio-
