Pioneers Organize
County Association

Wednesday, pioneer Day. was
more than successful. The Orofino
ladies served big feed, free, on the
Chautauqua grounds feature much
enjoyed by several hundred people,
among them many country visitors.
The Orofno band paraded, giving one
of their concerts, contributing much
to the pleasure of the occasion.
While Orofno people took time to
talk Chautauqua, and sell tickets,
there was time for the pioneers pres
ent to have an hour of social enjoy
ment, concluding with the organiza-
ton of a 'Pioneer Association. -
Rev. Morton presided temporarily,
and Mrs. j. S. Hogue, Jas Mccain,
Jack Dobson, DR.. Fairly, Mr.. and
Mrs. Ellis Small, Eric Olson and
other pioneers made brief talks, re-
lating early history and experiences.
They then organized by electing the
following officers: Pres, Jas. Nc
Cain, Gilbert: vice president, j. B..
Dickson; Mrs. Ellis Small was elect
ed secretary and Mrs. Hogue treas
urer. 1t was decided to meet one
day during the County fair this fall,
when there will be picnic, program,
and social pleasure. The association
wants the names of all pioneers, peo-
pie who have been in this here fifteen
years or prior to 1900, and the secre-
tary has arranged to have a register
at Schilling's Jewelry store. Sign
up the first time you are in Orofino.
Remember this Chautauqua week.
Join the association.
Here are some of the pioneers and
the number of years they have resided !:
j. M. Sanders, AZ years; Chas. Brad
dish, so years in October; John Gaff-
ney of Perez, about As or AZ years,
being Torn at Pierce; Jas. Mccain,
rs years; w. M. Chandler, Is years;
j. M. Holt, about So years, and Eric

81 years; John Molloy, who was born
in Walla Walla, has lived here since
1869; Chas. Boehm signs up for %
years residence, and Oren Crockett,
county treasurer, is in the 10 year
class. This is but small fraction
of the list. Register at Schililng' 8

ROAD PROBLEM AND FARMERS
Improved Country Highways Means
Cheaper Transportation.

Improved Country Highways Means
Cheaper Transportation.
Each year the importance of good
roads becomes more manifest to every
Intelligent farmer. says the Home and
Farm. The expense of the crop is not
finished with the harvest. You have
TO transport the cotton. or your meat.
or your wheat. or whatever you have
raised to the market. You must ar
range to reach the nearest railroad sta
ton at the least possible cost
That means that. i'm order to reduce
this transportation charge. you must
have better roads and you must have
the best carrying vehicle.
What that vehicle is will depend
upon a great many considerations
your distance from the railroad sta
ton. the character of your crop and
the character of your farming.
But whether YOU haul your goods to
market in wagon drawn by horses
or whether you carry 1t to market in
an automobile truck your roads must
be in good order If you are going to do
this work at the least possible cost
You do not waste money In improv-
ing your roads. but where money Il
wasted is In neglecting your roads.
raging your taxes or employing your
labor unwisely, ineffectively. In many
cases roads are no sooner finished than
their defects become apparent.
There are two road expenses
building Of the road first and the main
tenance of the road 1t cannot be too
often repeated that good roads are not
l:xuries. They are necessities. and to
have the best roads at the least posi-
bic cost you must have the work done
intclligently. scientifically and con
Itantly.
" you do not attend to your roads
your officers will not Watch and com
plain. Use the roads and then report
lie the proper authorities. and If you
have not got any proper authorities
form local committee. Il road vigi.

Village Council Encourage SprinkIing.

The Orofino village council met
Monday night and transacted import
ant business. Councilmen Holmberg
and Noble we're absent. A summer
sprinkling rate was fixed as follows
First thousand gallons. SIPS; next
three thousand gallons Csc each
additional thousand gallons 1Oc.
This rate will prvail for four
months. 1t is for the purpose of
permitting all to use water. for sprink-
ling, encouraging the keeping of de-
cent lawns. No excuse now, so go to
it. 1t is good move.
The council also closed the contract
for paving, and work started this
week on the water taps for every lot
along the paving district. Bob Swa-
dener was made general superinten-
dent, or engineer for the village at a
salary of five and a half per cent Of
the contract price, which will be
equal to about $500. The council has
not yet made provision to protect the
interests of the people, since there
should be some reliable man constant
ly on the job at the mixing of every
pound of cement. No honest contrac-
tor will object to being checked up.
The surveyor cannot look after the
mixing and the other work. When
Moscow laid cement paving John
Hall, democratic, now deputy sher-
iff, looked after this work.

Ford Car Goes Inio CANYON.

Another auto accident in which Oro-
fino people figured, was recorded
Wednesday afternoon coming up the
grade out of Juliaetta. Mr.. and Mrs.
Jolliffe and son John, were returning
to Orofino from Lewiston where they
ment Mrs. Jolliffe's father, J. H.
Parks of st. Petersburg. Florida, who
purchased new Ford in Lewiston for
Mrs. Jolliffe. Mr.. Parks owns
Ford, and was driving. The engine,
being new, was heating, and they
stopped to let it cool. They had on
the emergency, also the foot brake,
and took the precaution to block the
wheels, since they were on a steep
curve. Leaving the brakes set, but
releasing the foot brake, Mr.. Parks
with others got out and with Mr.. Jol-
life was in front of the car waiting
for it to cool. Mrs. Jolliffe and
John had walked ahead to rest under
the shade of tree. Mr.. Jolliffe
turned the crankto try the engine.
The men saw the car begin to back
and both jumped and tried to save it.
They tried to run it into the bank,
but were powerless to save it, and
the new Ford plunged 300 feet into
the canyon, tumbling over and over.
The body Of the car was ruined, three
wheels were smashed, windshilds, top
and accessories were crumpled mass.
But investigation showed an undam-
aged frame and project engine.
The springs were good. Three new
wheels were put on, and yesterday the
car negotiated the road into Juliaetta
where new body will be put on and
the car will be as good as ever. Mr..
Jolliffe remained in Juliaetta to look
after the repairs. Mrs. Jolliffe and
her father came on home by train.

ent epidemic of frosts, the Salt river valley has just started to enjoy it's delightful fall
 The lowest temperature yesterday was registered by the local branch of the weather bureau at 5. The highest was caught at 92. Those two figures proved a welcome diversion after months and months of sizzling hot weather
 During the past few days, perhaps a week. coats and vests have been making their appearance on the streets. During the summer months to wear a coat is to brand the wearer as a stranger or citizen of Tucson trying to belittle the beautiful climate of the valley. Winter suits lave been dug. pressed and cleaned, and in some cases a spirit of Affluence i has been demonstrated in the pur- chase of a new suit.
 The nights have also changed. Light bed clothes are welcome, and along towards morning, it is getting to be the hahit to wake up and reach for the blankets.

PHOENIX HIGH
 LEADING THEM
 IN EVERYTHING

Seventy typewriters will be con- stantly operated in the Phoenix high school commercial department daily, and there is still a number of stu dents demanding this course.
 This department won nearly all the honors at Tucson during University week. l. has also graduated the fastest typest in the state. Mr Michals, head of the department, holds over fifty letters of recogni- tiOn from the Remington and Under wood typewriter company, congratu- lating F. II. $. in the exceptional work turned out by students who have written from eighty to ninety words per minute. There is not one angle in which Phoenix high school is not the best in every department in the Southwest.
 Successful Ones
 Ralph Johnson, a graduate of the class of IA. was seen lately on the high school campus. He is one of the i1any successful graduates of the school. For the past three years he has been in business for himself in Williams Arizona, where he fore closed a $25,0A0 mining deal.
 Sid Myers, a former graduate. has also made good. He has worked UT as district manager of the Universal Film Exchange. Sid modestly ad- mits that it is thunder to be a man. ger and watch some unruly student without a conscience rob him of his fair friends who still attend school.
