won't.
The above picture will also
please Capt. Fackler.
All traffic cops, the city coun-
ell and downtrodden motorists
should be able to shed a tear at
the masterpiece. The picture
speaks for itself SO it has been
decided to cut out the word story.
Next we have our old non-skin
friend Universal" White whose

In the next cage We have Lou
Sehabel, daddy of the little Sax

A report on the two school dis.

pine district received $4,000 for
the schools for the season Of 1856.
The Nebo district received $4,000
last year. According to estimates
the Alpine district will be able to
raise under the present tax system
$751;, 1853, but II arrangements can be
made the school beard of that dis
trict will ask for s1s7,22O to take

trict are asking for the additional
$4,000 which will make a total
amount for that district, including
all expenses of l205.66O.
Several school board members dis
cussed their side of the tax problem
and stated that they did not believe
the taxes could be reduced in their
branches. They informed the COM
missioners that the teachers con-

residents appealed to the county CON-
raissioners, declaring that the aban-
coming Of the line will leave them
without interurban communication to

tributed land, money and labor to OBJ

under which the line was operated
binds the company to operate cars
daily.
The franchise was for fifty years
