MODERN SURVEYORS HAVE
NOTHING ON G. WASHINGTON

George Washington's survey
ing, done in l751, when, as a lad
of 19, he ran line with chain
and compass through the wilder
ness of the Virginia hills for
Lord Fairfax, has been checked
up by government surveyors,
and they have just made their
reports. They found the work
of the immortal patriot perfect.
Washington, running his lines
with primitive instruments and
bonfires on hill hops, left monu-
ments and boundaries which
technically educated surveyors
using high-power transit and all
the refined and accurate methods
of modern instruments have been
able to find no variation.
From the top of Middle noun
tain, in the Massanutten range,
the old Fairfax line may be dis
tinguished without the use of
instruments and can be followed
by boundary fences dating from
the earliest days and by blocks
of timber which mark the county
lines and stand out like squares
on a checker board.
Across the valley of the South
fork of the Shen andoah as far as
the eye can distinguish the line
shows plainly.
Washington's survey blazes,
cut into the trunks of the trees
and long grown over, have been
rediscovered and all are several
feet higher from the ground than
those the woodmen of today
would make.

Minstrel Show Dec. 20

The minstrel show under prac-
tice at this time, to be given by
the teachers of the public school
in Roman to purchase a piano,
will be given on Saturday even
ing, Dec. 20, at the Roman opera
house. Owing to the fact that
the stores do not close on Satur-
day evenings until 8 o'clock, the
curtain will not rise until 9:15,
giving everybody a chance to at
tend and see the entire perform
ance.
Everything indicates at this
time that those who attend will
get more than their moneys
worth, and being a worthy Oh
ject the attendance is expected
to be large.
Don't forget the date, Dec. 20.

Until the Flathead reservation
was opened to settlement by
homesteaders, who ever heard
of Uncle Sans free land being
doled out under the homestead
laws at $500 per acre. And not
content with that, by and with
that, by and with the action OF
the commission appointed to
classify and appraise additional
vacant lands, Uncle Sam is now
offering the homesteader free
homesteads at the rate Of from
81 on up to as high as $25 per
acre, plus the few other require
ments of the homestead law.
Twenty-Five dollars per acre for
homestead lands is about an a
par with $500 per acre for the
park site adjoining Roman on the
north. Truly, Uncle Sam is very
liberal with the pioneers who are
trying to build up homes and
develop the west.
