the Brick hall Friday night was a
great success. The entertainment
was the first of a series to be
given for the benefit of Rockland
public schools, as the schools of
this district are being continued
by subscription only. The amount
received was 1925, the expenses
being 1886. This will help the
school fund s21.40. 1t seems that
a misunderstanding exists as to the
reason for a subscription school,
yet the facts are obtainable to show
that at the April meeting, 1909.

/Our mail facilities since the
fhinook has been variable. Mail Boss
Robinson has had two rigs in ser
fvice for the past week, one of which
left either place each morning. 1t
has been many seasons since such
a condition of roads has confronted
any one Such a condition of wash
ed out bridges and roads full of
gullies makes it necessary TO do
considerable work on them before
traffic by wagon a be resumed to
any extent. 1t will take ONE time
to put the roads in condition that
a daily mail al be obtained. This
is no fault of the mail service as
the government does not biuld
roads. Probably the most serious
piece of work on this road is at the
Little creek bridge crossing which
is aA-aHsa5l-soad4++er->O the
road between Mud SpEidg hollow
and the divide, considerable grad
ing will have to be attended to be-
fore an automobile can make the
trip. Commissioner May informed
your correspondent that everything
would be attended to as soon as
possible. AS there were so many
miles OF bad roads in his district,
it would be necessary to visit the
Arbon. Rattlesnake and other sec
lions and get plans and estimates
on the repair work necessary be-
fore the contract for repairs could
be let. The commissioner in com
pany with John Lawson were out
last week taking a look at some
of the roads and met with several
astonishing things.
