A LARGE ATTENDANCE AT
COMMERCIAL CLUB LUNCH
Young Mems Club Making Rapid Strides; A Committee of
Twelve Appointed Board of Directors Expense Met
By Membership Fees VIII Refit Old School House.

1t was definitely decided that the old
school building on West Main street
was to be overhauled on the inside and
refitted for the use of the club, with
reading rooms and q gym with fun out
fit Of modern athletic paraphernalia
Some thought that the gym at the
new school building should be used in
stead of fitting up another, but 1t was
argued on the other hand that that
would interfere too much with the reg
ular school work. and the old building
was settled upon.
DIR. H j. Smith. who came In the
night before from a several months
visit at Bellingham In the sound coun-
try, responded to the call OF his old
associates In a neat speech in which
he INDUCED in a number of spicy and
well pointed anecdotes illustrative of
his fidelity and friendship for Camas
prairie and its citizens, and to some
extent showing how glad he was to get
back once more.

REGISTERED ENGLISH BULL.

Thomas Bales last Friday received
from J. j. HILL the railroad magnate.
an imported English Durham bull dl-
rect from the well known Hobbs breed
ing farm in England. When John Nor
wood saw the animal, he said: Well,
he looks like he might have come from
the Hobbs farm, he has all the mark
ings of that famous breed" Then Tom
pulled the documents on him and veri-
fled the guess to niceity.
The animal is a strawberry roam
and Is from the very best Durham
milk strain extant. It will be remem-
bered that County Commissioner John
Long had some correspondence some
weeks ago regarding the placing of one
of the Jim Hill animals on the prairie.
and this Is no doubt the sequel to
the letter we published In the Globe
The animal was held In quarantine on
one of the Hill farms in the east for
several weeks on account of the scare
over the hoof and mouth disease, and az
a result is looking a little rough. but
good feed and care will soon remedy
that. Mr.. Bales says the animal will
be kept at his place for service as
community property, and he will state
the conditions to all interested in
quirers. This animal should in time
prove of inestimable value to the whole
prairie country.

No Friction or interruption in
the Regular Course Of
County Business.
MAKE PROMPT SWAP
Old Officers Step Down and New
Ones Qualify Before Coun-
ty Commissioners.

Last Monday was a real busy day
at the court house, the occasion be-
ing the change Of county officials and
the swearing in of both re-elects and
new officials. The old board OF coun-
ty commissioners was reelected. as
was County Treasurer Rice, Assessor
Rothwell, County Prosecutor Hattabaugh
and Coroner Blake, and few II any
changes win be made in those offices.
The county commissioners administer
ed the oath to all the other officers
and then qualified for the next two
years service themselves. ]. A. Brad
bury's name as auditor appeared at
the bottom of the mornings report OF
the commissioners proceedings, and
John p. Eimers' appeared from that on
with the official title of auditor at
tached, and John has been meeting the
public in an official capacity ever since.
AS stated heretofore, his chief deputy
Is Henry Telcher and deputy district
clerk is Harold Harris. Mr.. Bradbury
has taken charge of 1.-The abstract Of
flee in the Savings & Trust Co. bank,
while Mr. Rambo win continue for the
present at his old post.
Sheriff Lafe Yates and his two depu-
ties, Bill Eller for the outside work
and Tim Quinlan for office deputy, ap-
peared before the commissioners and
took the regular oath to support the
constitution of state and nation and to
faithfully enforce the law, and then re-
turned to the sheriffs office in a hap
py frame of mind that 1t was over
with.
j. j. Staley was sworn In early In
the game to faithfully administer the
affairs of the office of county super
intendent, but nothing was mentioned
about the settlement of district quar-
rels, as that evidently Is a delicate
subject in that office. No assistant
was named.
County Treasurer Rice, Assessor Roth
well, Prosecutor Hattabaugh and DIR.
Blake took the oath without a quaver
of the voice, all of them being old
offenders and no doubt hardened sin
ners in their line of work
L. M. Harris, the new probate judge,
was somewhat coy and backward for
one who has sold as much camas prai-
rie real estate as he has In the past.
and consequently was about the last
of the officials to make his declara-
tion of intentions. But as soon as
the ordeal was over with he got right
down to business and in a very short
time had disposed of one case by dis
missal and fixed the date for another,
which may be considered a reasonably
good starter, and In newspaper circles
might be considered a scoop" on the
]. P's.
Taken all in alb the transfer was
very satisfactorily and circumspectly
made, and everything is now beginning
to run with smooth journals and at
the regular speed limit as made and
provided by law.

DECEMBER FINE MONTH.

According to Local Observer John Nor
wood, December, 1914. was an excep-
tionally fine winter month. excellent
for all outdoor work. The precipitation
was the lowest in years and the snow
fall very light. While this was not the
best for fall grain 1t boosted travel and
traffic to the front in great shape.
Such good roads were never before
known in this county at that time of
year; automobiles were running all
over the prairie during the entire
month, and wood hauling from the
mountains and transportation of grain
and other products has never been
equalled before.
Maximum temperature 4S. on the I'd;
minimum below. on the Goth; precip-
itation 10. snowfall inches: 21 clear
days. cloudy and part cloudy.
