his well pump break off about 800
feet from the surface Of the ground

Jim tried to be a chaperon for about

it. Jim and this coterie of nymphs
hail from Sunny Rockland. We do
not have nothing only angels, and
t'other kind, anyway; but to tell you

md Rockland made nine III
days game of baseball. At no time
during the game was. the team from
the Power City in it. Bailey, the
pitcher for the Rocklandites, had
the boys at his mercy at all times as
the official score sheet shows but
three hits off him, while Thompson
of the Falls was pounded all v
the earth Both teams are charged
with two errors each The High
school boys, however, made a nice
appearance in their new suits of
dark blue and yellow. The girls all
with one accord offer them a vote
of thanks for their coming over here
so far from their dear homes. A
cold wind made it very ~uncomfort-
able for the fans.
Among the most prosperous Of
the early settlers Of Rockland is
John Eliason. John came to this
country several years ago, and he
claims thai he was not the possessor
of much geldt. Mr. and Mrs. Eliason
took their first holiday last month
since their marriage, and had the
most happy of happy times. They
visited the scenes of their youth in
Utah, talked over the long passed in
cidents, and then came back to sun
ny Rockland, glad that they had
gone away, but much happier to get
back. Mr.. Eliason comes home en-
thusiastic over the valley Is COM
pared to what he saw in Utah. Not
so as regards fruit, but as regards
grain. Nowhere else, Mr.. Elisaon
declares, did he look upon greater
prospects for a bumper crop than he
met upon his return to this valley.
Nowhere else had he eel such whea
as he found In this valley. 1t is but
fair to add that Mr.. Eliason is one
Of the foremost settlers of this val
ley and is one Of the most cOnserva-
tive observers to be found.
