In the class history, Helen recalled

class of 1917, the first to take four
years in the high school of Roman,

Mater They left to the assembly
room an atmosphere of love and 10y
atty which will long linger with us
who will be Seniors, class of 1918,
when these notes go to press-are
filled with a mingling of joyous eX-
pectations not unmiXed with regret.

sent to us all that is noble. To Mr.

cations loyal friend; to the quartet,

ROUND BUTTE NEWS

CarnceocsCeoetsceoCC
Frank Doser bought Dick Harris
Saxon car at the auction held in Ro-
nan last Saturday.
About twenty five farmers living
in the Horte neighborhood have
made applications for farm loans
through the Round Butte Federal
Loan association, under the regula-
tions of this association. The lands
have been appraised by a local board
of appraisers and a governmentman is
expected within short time to re-
appraise the same, and the appli-
cants hope that their efforts will
meet with success.
The Round Butte Bull association
has received a registered Holstein
bull from Washington.
The new steel bridge at the mouth
of Grow creek has been completed
and duly approved by the board Of
county commissioners and is now
ready for use. The new structure is
a great Improvement over the old one
and is thoroughly appreciated by
those living in that vicinity.
Barney McKittrick has almost COM
pleted a two story bungalow style of
residence and store in connection on
his homestead one half mile west of
the Round Butte school house. The
building is 35X60, furnace heated,
walls plastered and tinted and fin
ished throughout. Mr.. Mckittrick
expects to put in a full line of gen
eral merchandise and will have the
store open and ready for business in
short time, and will prove a great
accommodation to the neighborhood.
The building would be credit to
any community and Mr.. McKittrick
is to be congratulated upon his pro-
gressiveness.
