there are some interesting things
known to those who are familiar with
High school affairs. Organized three
years ago, the boys for a time tried
valiantly to have good society but
probably from diffidence or lack of the
stimulus of feminine applause, the
meetings soon became drag.
By the second year they met only
when there was enough money in the
treasury to have "feed."
This year they met regularly every
week on the same night as the Phil
ogia, but their meetings were held on
the cold school porch, with no light
but the watery moon or distant
street lamp. There was always a
good attendance and no outsider
knows how they passed the time, wait
ing to escort the girls home and ex-
tremely proud to have even so remote a
connection with anything literary. 1t
must have been narrowing indeed on
the frequent nights when they knew
the girls had "eats" and the vigilant
teachers made it impossible for them
to get even a bite.
But in spite of all these discour-
agements the boys must have absorbed
something of a literary nature, for
they give their program on next Mon
day night and we are assured that it
is a good one.

DONATES ROAD WORK.
Buford Stone Takes the Bull by the
Horns in His District.

If Polk county had more men like
Buford Stone it would have better
highways, said Roadmaster Waldo
Finn to The Observer yesterday.
When interrogated regarding his en-
thusiasm over Mr.. Stone, it
was learned that this gentleman had
donated fifty days work, with two
men and team, in clearing and pre-
pairing the road for grading from
his place toward Dallas, The OBJ
server doffed its editorial cap and
agreed with the master road super
visor. Stumps were blasted out and
the highway ploughed ready for
grading, which was done by Thos
Merrick, the road superintendent for
that district. And Mr.. Stone, accord
ing to our informant, is not through
with his good work, for he promises
to continue it until there is a first
class road through his section of the
country.

MAY ENJoIN THE CITY.
Complaint Lodged Against Dumping
Sewage Into La Creole.

There is a strong probability thai
Dallas will be forced to construct 9
septic tank for the disposal Of its
sewage, if the proposition does moi
carry at the forthcoming special elec-
tion and work on the depository be
inaugurated without unnecessary de-
lay. Complaint against the city
dumping its sewage into the La Creole
river has been lodged with the county
attorney by dairyman whose ranch
is located upon the river and whose
stock is watered daily from that
stream, and action has only been de-
ferred until such time as the people
are given opportunity to vote upon
the question.
The State Board of Health, of which
Calvin White is secretary, has made
it plain that further abuses of this
character will no longer be tolerated
here or elsewhere in the state, and
that body stands ready to prosecute
all violators of the law in this respect.
1t is not, however, question of
whether Dallas shall be forced into
constructing the proposed septic tank,
but question of right in the premises.
1t has been intimated that The OBJ
server, by the publication Of the facts
in connection with the question now so
prominently before the public, has en-
deavored to intimidate the voter into
adopting the measure presented to the
people by the common council for ap-
proval or rejection. Far be it from
so. AS public journal The Observ-
er would be negligent of duty were
it to knowingly withhold matters of
concern to the entire community from
its constituency-the people. The
fact is, Dallas must find other means
of disposing of its sewage, and volun-
tary action on its part should be pref
cradle to being compelled to discon-
tinue violations of the state law.
The aldermanic body has been crit
icized because it has neglected to pro-
vide a site for the proposed tank,
butt its procrastination in this particu-
lar does not alter conditions. 1t will
probably have to make this provision
in the near future. As to the price
of the Uglow site The Observer does
not pretend to know. Little does it
matter what site is selected so long
as the peoples interests are guarded
and their health protected. If the
council is dissatisfied with the figure
named by the board of arbitration,
and it can do so honorably, let it go
elsewhere with its outlet--but, in the
language of the poet, let it go. 1t
is unfair to the voters of Dallas for
the administration to submit a ques-
tion involving the peoples money
without giving something more def
mite to act upon.

SENDS OUT SCHOOL MONEY.
Refusal of Espee to Pay Taxes Makes
Fund Short.

Superintendent of Schools Sey-
mour on Wednesday forwarded war
rants to the several school clerks Of
the county, being part Of the school
fund raised within the county for the
year 1913-14. There still remains
unpaid fifty cents of the SO per capi-
ta, and this money will be apportioned
about October 10. The shortage is
due to the Southern Pacific company
refusing to hquidate its taxes on
lands within Polk county until pend
ing litigation is settled by the supreme
court
There are, according to the 1913
census, on which basis the apportion-
ment is made, 582 children Of school
age in Polk county, and the per capita
is So, which aggregates 1886. In
addition to the above in the neighbor-
hood of $1.S0 per capita will later be
received from the state, making the
grand total distributed from these
sources among THE several schools
$5,703.50.

Orchestra Concert.

The last "pay" entertainment by
the High school was given Tuesday
by the High school orchestra as a
benefit for the annual which is being
put out for the first time this year.
1t was a very creditable performance
throughout, the program consisting of
readings by Miss Goldie Bissell; solos
by Misses Lucille Hamilton and Elva
Lucas; selections by the Girls quar-
tet, and orchestra, which furnished the
principal part of the program. The
"Humoreske," by Dvorak, and "Bar-
carolle," from Glove Tales of Hoff-
man." were especially fine. The Or
chestra. directed by Jack Eakin, con-
sists of the following members Jack
Eakin, violin; Ray Butler, fife; Ralph
Howe, cornet; Loren Butler, clarinet; !;
Floyd Ellis, bass viol. For this con-
cert they were assisted by John Ug-

Miss Pearl Horner, though given
scant time for preparation, very ably
accompanied them on the piano in
place of Dorothy Bennett, the regular
pianist, who was unable to play. The
receipts were $35.

Yoemen Entertain.

Dallas Yoemen, their families and
friends, enjoyed social evening on
Wednesday at the lodges meeting
place. Aside from bountiful refresh
ments, games and a splendid musical
program were the principle features
of the entertainment. The program
as rendered follows:
Piano duet, Misses Lilah McDaniels
and Ada Longnecker; vocal solo, Mrs.
Walter Tooze, Jr.; vocal duet, Mr..
Longnecker and Miss Ada Longneck-
er; vocal solo, Mrs. Archie Hover.
The lunch was served by Mesdames
Starr and Harden, who proved them
selves equal to the occasion.
Master of Ceremonies Tooze put on
an old-fashioned spelling bee, Miss
Ada Longnecker having one side and
Miss Tia Mcdonald the other. The
fight waxed warm, with the odds in
favor of Miss Longnecker's side, until
it came to the word "Asphyxia, :"
when the whole class spelled out ex-
cept Miss Katherine Dyck, upon Miss
McDaniel's side, who spelled the word
correctly, and brought victory to her
side.
