The 4th of July celebration that
takes place in Oroville on the I'd and

Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. T. Peterson are
off on an automobile trip that may be

Owing to the late arrival of the
train on the branch the mail will not

some hardship, but the convenience of
q daily passenger service will in a
measure compensate for the incon-
venience.
The heavy rain and hail storm that
fell here between noon and 1 o'clock
Saturday, did not extend south, for the
roads just across the Similkameen

1t is calculated that within another
week work will commence on state
road No. 10, crews working out of

e. A. Williams, the Nelson attorney,
has moved to Oroville, and will occupy
the r. p. Hoskyn office. Mr. Williams

this upper country regularly now
travel in their own cars, and no doubt
the time will come when that convey
