the Dof Hill and other churches
tanning her whih she looks around.

HOGwALIDW EDITORIAL.
Eight years ago this spring the
Hogwalow Improvement Association
appointed Atlas Peck a committee to-
investigate ant report Oh whether
or not the schOl house needed rel
pairs; and aft,r thorough and
lengthy consideration, coupled with
la determined investigation, he Is
now about ready to report at the as
sociation's next meeting. Each year
since he was appointed he has
worked diligently on the job Of In
vestigation by tireless observation,
and the public has such confidence
in his ability that they are sure to
abide by his recommendations, what
ever they may be. While Mr.. Peck
will not give out the full text OF his
report, he having not quite complet-
ed it in all Of it's thorough detail 1t
is reported that he will recommend
that while there were no repairs
especially needed at the outset of his
appointment eight years ago, ccmpli-
cations have since arisen which will
necessiate certain improvement at no
distant date. Therefore he will not do
like some committees and ask for frther
time on the matter, as was predicted.
Mr.. Peck has the hearty corporation OF
the community at large, and is to be
commended upon his deliberate action
In the case.
