Because of the storms last week
and the consequent delay in getting
the gravel. the concrete work on
the retaining wall has progressed
slowly and it is thought will be too
green for the work of filing in

for tomorrow, Saturday So the

Saturday. Nov. 2, when everybody
is expected to help as best they may.

proper condition all would have TAX

Readers will notice the unusual |
arrangement Of our reading space
this week. The legal necessity OF
printing the ballot twice before
election time. the printing of the
special ordinance, and the etxra adj
yertising has upset the regular plan
and curtailed the space. This will
also be the case next week. These
extra features are of vital interest,
however, and should be carefully
studied.

The Pomona Grange

Tuesday was an important day to
the. Grange people Of San Juan
county. The weather was unfavor-
able. and many local members were
unusually busy, so that the attend
ance was not large. but the meet
ings we're interesting and profitable.
Only small company came together
Tor the afternoon meeting: fourteen
coming from West Sound and four
fir Q m Lopez. Favorable reports
were given from those oranges
which were represented. There
was a spirited dicusssion of the fact
that the county commissioners had
failed to bring the question Of town.

ed to them. The feeling seemed to
prevail that the commissioners had
failed to comply with the law.
at the election of officers the fol-
lowing were chosen for the ensuing
year: Worthy master. E. M. Church !;
Overseer, P. A. Perry; Lecturer.

West Sound was chosen as the
next place of meeting.
In the evening Oddfellows' hall
was well filed and the excellent
program prepared was fully carried
out. The musical numbers received
encores and the recitations were es-
pecially good and entertaining. All
three gentlemen vino were down for
talks. responded, and gave the au-
dience food for thought.
The usual criticism is again in or
der tardiness in assembling and
beginning. It was nearly nine o.
clock before the first number on
the program was called.
After the exercises at Oddfel.ows'
hall. all members of the Grange, all
strangers and all who took part.
with their wives. husbands. sweet
hearts or friends, were invited to
repair to Grange hall. where sub
stantial refreshments were served.
It was about midnight before the
out-of-town people started for
home, after day full of pleasure
and profit.

That Big Buck on Orcas

In last weeks Islander an item
appeared regarding big buck.
Our Olga informant stated that the
buck had J5 points. weighed 21O
pounds, and was killed at the base
of the mountain, near the lake. Be
low are two other versions of the
killing and hauling. with descrip-
tions of the deer. Knowing nothing
personally as to the facts in the
case. our readers may enjoy reading
the three different versions.
Editor Islander: In regard to
|the big buck story which appeared
Ia last weeks Tslandess wish for
the benefit Of those who read the
story. to correct the errors in the
order in which they appeared in the
article.
First: The propagator Of that
story was not citizen OF Olga.
Second: The buck had only 5
points, two on one side and three
on the other.
Third: He was not killed near
the lake, but on top Of the mount
ain, near the summit. -
Fourth: He weighed about 125
pounds. instead of 210.
Fifth: The deer was not hauled
to Olga by Mr.. Snowden, but by
myself.
CHOW. since Mr.. Snowden is
working for Mr.. Moran, as patrol
man, for the purpose Of preventing
the destruction Of deer on his pro-
perty, it seems that the story may
have been told with malicious in
tent.
