FRUITVALE NOTES.

Jessie Huff shipped some peaches
this week.
Many residents here took lessons
in packing fruit
The valley never had so many in
telligent-Iooking helpers.
Hessie Henderson has two bright
music pupils-Viyian and Florence
Spencer.
The pea hen lays only four eggs
before setting, and is not so beautiful
nor so disagreeable as her lordly
mate.
Mrs. Rose Shrver, with Leland
and Eva May from Clifton, were Wis
itors at the home Of Mrs. Alva James
Thursday.
Elberta peaches are blushing more
and more every day Some folks are
making hoXes, and enough box ma
terial passes every day from the
switch to build city.
Mrs. Henderson and Hessie went to
town Wednesday morning and lost
their hitching strap. Like many
blessings, they did not think so much
of the strap till it was gone and
wasted time searching for it.
Last Sunday the Congregational
| Church dispensed with the surplice
choir and was led by a quartette com
/ posed of Mrs. Loeffler, Miss Alice
Finley, Mr.. Webber and Mr.. J. T.
Brown, with Prof. j. Santos as ac-
companist.
Otto Tapfer, former fireman on
a pile-driver, whose throat was cut,
his jaw broken and left ear partly
cut off, called on us all. selling a
poem on a neat card. He breathes
through a tube in his neck, and can
only whisper. 1t is needless to say
that he was well treated here.
Anyone. to beat Mrs. Thomas Else
making bread. must get up early in
the morning. The only grudge we
bear this lady is that she is not poor
enough TO need to run bakery. SO
that We could eat her bread without
running to town during the hot
weather.
We hope the new officers of the
Union Trading Company will prove
the revivinG of our hopes and not the
resurrection of our fears" as stated
in the Fruitvale column in the News.
