SUGGEST CHANGE.
Continued from Page ~

Concerning the fire deartment the
commissioners say: :" We found it neces-
sary during the year to make some
changes III the fire department and en-
ployed Frank Streeter as chief engineer
Mr.. Streeter has proved efficient and is
giving great deal of attention in max
ing the department fully up with high
standard of efficiency. He is now sleep
ing at the fire station so as to be ready
for any emergency.
We found it advisable to dispose of
one pair of the village horses as they
had become of little value to the vii
lage.
I've invite attention to the fact that
the cost of heating the fire station, and
the cost of maintenance of the horses
has been materially reduced over the
cost of 1915 and 1916
1--WE have appointed in connection with
the fire department purchasing agent
and now everything which is purchased
is upon the Judgment and by the direc
ton of the purchasing agent. This has
resulted in a considerable saving
| The proposition of the Twin State
| Gas & Electric Co relative to street
/ lighting, recently published in The Re
/ former, is stated.
4 Other paragraphs in the commission
ers report are as follows:
Il Enhances The village debt has
been reduced $4,000. There has been
considerable added expense in connec-
tion with the maintenance of the police
department by reason of the employ
ment of 4 day policeman. In conncc-
ton with the matter of finances, we feel
it our duty to urge during the coming
year the strictest economy. We are
entering upon a period when great sac
ritices will be required, not only from
municipalities but from individuals, and
the greatest care should be exercised
by the officials of this village in keeping
expenses down rs low as possible, and
J we urge retrenchment III every way
possible. We believe that a tax of ~
cents on a dollar of the grand list will
be needed for the coming wear S cx
pcnses.

Awaiting Further Instruction

Jacob Johnson was one of those
persons who always think other peo-
pie can't be left TO attend to any
thing. They give so many directions
that muddle simply follows on their
heels.
When the mill closed down for tho
holidays Jacob decided to go to Black.
pool, and he asked his brother to
look after his pet parrot. All the way
in the train he worried about that
bird, and when he reached Blackpool
rushed straight off to the postoffice
to send a wire:
Don't forget to feed the parrot"
Early next morning the servant at
the lodgings where he was staying
brought him his reply, also by tele-
gram:
Have fed him, but he is hungry
again. What shall do now?"

Killed By Fast Mail Train

Asa Cass 81 years of age, pioneer
Of Snohomish county residing at Sutton
Wash. was instantly killed one day last
week when he was struck by the fast
mail train. He was walking on the
track in heavy fog and failed to hear
the approaching train. He was civil
war veteran and had resided in Wash
ington 80 years. The Sultan Star says:
Notwithstanding his age he was
probably in better physical condition
than the average man Of sixty. He
was Of kindly disposition, and
universally liked and respected. Owing
to his habit Of taking long walks daily,
he was a more familiar figure than any
other elderly resident Of the COM
muniiy." His tragic death is shock
to the community.

Death Occurs On Train

niger with his wife add brother, boarded
No. / at Wenatchee. His condition
became serious shortly after leaving
and DR.. Hoxsey was wired to meet the
train on its arrival in this city.
Durin the short stop here, the doc
tor made an examination and found
that the man was suffering from Uremia.
He confded to the wife that it was not
likely that her husband would reach
Seattle alive, but he consented to ac'
company them that far. Death oc-
cured near Sultan. The dying man
realized his condition and according to
his wishes was buried on the coast.
He was 43 years Of age.

The Liberty Loan Meeting After the Show

Was you there? No, you was not
Then you have reason to congratulate
yourself. 1t was sight to make the
shade of Patrick Henry blush with
shame. There were those present that
left before the speaking was over who
cheered when the American flag was
raised on the liberty pole last summer.
Would they raise their hand or give a
quarter now to pay soldier to prevent
the Germans from pulling that flag
DOWN. Yet that is exactly what the
Germans will do if they win the war.
And they wonld win the war if the
balance OF the United States was like
Leavenworth. The liberty bonds are
sold to raise money to pay the soldiers
who are fighting to make it impossible
for the Germans to ever pull down the
Stars and Stripes.
The less said about that meeting
the better.

LEAvENWORTH APPLE
PICKFRS WELCOMED
Saved Several Thousand BOxeS-Many
Thousand Boxes Yet Remain
to Be Picked

Some fifty, or more, Leavenworth
men, women and school children
spent Wednesday in the orchards
adjacent to this place and Peshastin.
They went wherever they were most
needed. Many Of them had never
picked apples before but they all fell
to and did the best they could.
Several thousand boxes of apples were
in this way transferred from the tree
to apple boxes and are now safe in
some packing house, only waiting to
be sorted. wrapped and packed in
shipping boxes. loaded on the cars and
sent to some eager buyer.
1t is safe to say that in the upper
valley, between Leavenworth and
Dryden there are yet between two and
three hundred thousand boxes of apples
to be picked. 1t is doubtful if half
the crop is picked at this time.
The heavy wind Of Tuesday night
caused a considerable apple drop.
Should we have a rainey spell OF a
week at this time it would cause
incalculable damage. After the fifteenth
Of November the weather for apple
picking is not to be counted on.
Apple growers. realizing this are
employing every man, woman and
child they can get to go into the
orchards. The scarcity Of help, due
to the war, no doubt, is responsible
for the slow progress so far made with
harvesting the apple crop Of the We
natchee Valley.
