AGLEANINGS FROM ROCK CREEK
TO BADGER PEAk.

We can understand, as the good book
says, how the Lamb and the Lion
shall lie down in peace together" but
think OF a school site and bond cleo
ton without heated arguments ana
many gesticulations. If it wasn't for
the little disturbance across the pond
we should say the millennium is near
at hand. We are very glad that at
our first election in our new school
district "a, there was perfect har-
mony and a fine public spirit through
out the election. There were 25 votes
cast in all: Bonds, yes, %; bonds,
no, 2. The school house was already
partly built on the SWA of the NWA
Section %, Township 9. Range 20 East
Boise meridian and the vote vas 81 to
4 n favor of leaving it there
Just an ever half of the voters were
out to the election Saturday afternoon.
1t Is a shame and a disgrace that peo-
pie show such little interest in the
welfare of such institutions as the
public school. Everyone who is Meth.
er sick or waiting on some one who is
should be fined for their absence.
Everybody and their little Ratchet
is supposed to show up at the school
house and lend a hand towards the
finishing up of same, beginning on
Thursday of this week and continuing
until completed if weather permits.
The home of Mr.. and Mrs. Bert Win

Mr.. Glorfeld, Sr., and Bill Glorfeld
have peer on the sick list for a few
days but are around again at present.
Mrs. Davies and daughter have re-
turned to their home at Waverly,
Washington. Mrs. Davies who is a sis

visiting here with her sister for the
past six months. Though Mrs. Davies
Washington and that this vas a sage
brush desert when she came, said be-
fore she left that "she thought this a
jolly good place"
Mr.. Carl Reed has bought the Rol
Jones state land lease south of Table
Mountain and will begin farming on Il
big scale now. Mr.. Reed has also pu,
down a we'll and is building a sub
= stantial cottage.
More men of the improvement type
is what the county needs.
Mr.. and Mrs. Matt Kuhn have been
visiting friends in the Falls for the
past week.
We extend to Mr.. Kuhn the sym
pathies of the entire community in the
loss of his mother who passed from
khis earthly home on Wednesday last
There remains just one greater love
in the world for him than that which
has just passed-God's love.
Mr.. Ralph Woodwork and Bide
Campbell are going to round off their
summers profits by hauling wheat
rom the river ferry to Wapi. Mr.
Woodwork expressed the belief thal
1t wouldn't take him long to make
his profits owing TO the difficult hau
through sand.
Sunday school will be renewed al
soon as the school house is in order
and the new seats arrive.

Mrs. Will Campbell was unable +
attend election Saturday on account o
illness.
Who is sorry he voted the good roa'
bonds now? Don't hold up your han
but hold your sorrow, you're the onl
one and you'll get awfully lonesome
Here's hoping for more just like 1t.
