Pete Kujawa and II. p. Frodsham
left by auto Monday morning for
American Falls, and will attempt to
straighten out the affairs of the
circumpleted hotel that was droop-
ped about two years ago. The in
complete building has been an eye

will at last be finished and opened
for the use of the public. AS tt
Frodsham house will close its doors
to the public on the first, there
will be no place for any accommoda-

big valley.
