Plan Telephone Extension

Officials of the Pacific States Telephone
& Telegraph Co. made trip over the
line of the I. & w. N, from Newport to
Metaline Falls, Tuesday, for the pur-
pose of investigating the country and
reporting on the advisability of extend
ing the company's lines from Newport
to Metaline Falls. R. s. Anderson,
manager of the Newport Telephone Co.,
accompanied the party and pointed out
the resources and development work in
progress.
The officials, two of whom were from
the head Office of the company at San
Francisco, we're greatly surprised at the
character of the country and the sub
stantial nature of its improvements 1t
is very likely that they will make a
favorable report on the project, and that
work of construction will begin shortly
after their reports have been received
at the main Office.

Council Proceedings

The town council met in regular ses-
sion Tuesday evening, with all members
present except DR.. Nelson, who was out
of town.
Petition of John Jacobson was pre-
scented, asking building permit for the
erection of second story on his cement
block business building. Permission
was granted.
John Field made application for
building permit for the erection OF
one-story addition to his residence, To-
Gated in the rear of the Pend Oreille
House. The application was referred to
committee.
A number of the ladies of the Civic
Improvement Club visited the council,
and through Attorney s. W. Rogers,
who acted as their spokesman, informed
the council of the objects of their organ
ization. and asked the cooperation of
the council in the improvement and
beautifying of the town. They asked
that the council assist in the cleanup
of the town. and enforce present regula-
tions prohibiting the depositing of refuse
on lots, streets and alleys of the town,
and that owners of vacant lots be re-
quired to keep them clear of weeds and
rubbish. They also petitioned the coun-
Gil to place waste paper and refuse re-
ceptacles on the principal street corners.
The councilmen gave the ladies very
cordial reception, and through resolu-
ton proposed by Councilman Lusher
endorsed the movement for identifying
and improving the town that had been
started by the civic improvement Club,
and assured the ladies that they would
be pleased to cooperate with them and
consider any suggestions they might
have to offer.
The town clerk and street committee
were ordered to investigate the cost of
the waste paper receptacles desired.
A. M. Harris, who was commissioned
by the council to make trip to Colville
approximately $500 in personal property
taxes had been turned into the town
current expense fund by County Treas
urer Phillips. which sum had been paid
into road district No. 8. owing to error
in making assessments. Mr.. Harris,
while making the assessment this year,
discovered these errors, and called the
attention of the county treasurer to the
fact that the sums had been enormously
credited to road district No. 8, instead
Of the town current expense fund.

such charm that there was not jailer

from every country, taking year long

they had "seen loneliness ITSELF" Then
one sees her portraits. Too much fore

Observation-Disclosures
They are such as are made up Of two
parts of similar form. Look carefully
at these and you will perceive that the
upper halves of the characters are a
very little smaller than the lower
halves, so little that, at mere glance,
you would declare them to be Of equal
size. Now turn this page upside down,
and without any careful looking you
will see that the difference in size is
very much. eXaggerated-that the real
top half of the letter is very much
smaller than the other half. 1t will be
seen by this that there is tendency
in the eye to enlarge the upper part
Of any object upon which it looks.
Thus two circles of unequal size might
be drawn and SO placed that they
would appear exactly alike.-New York
