Work On Street Assured.

We are gratified to be able to re-
port that the Town Commissioners
have directed the State Roads Com
mission that they are ready with the
towns proportion of money necessary
to improve the State Road through
the town. The committee appointed
by the Community Club has turned
over its report to the Board which
has the consent of the property own
ers on Church and water streets to
make the improvements and what
they have agreed to pay as their pro-
portion of the costs of curb and gut
ter.
This will mean fine piece OF per-
manent improvement to the town,
and the property owners along this
road can be proud of this improve
ment. We hope the State will speed
up its contracts for this work.

Why Not Tax These?

The County Commissioners have
been sending out notices to all parties
who have acquired automobiles, fur
niture or musical instruments, but
we have failed to see where they are
taxing motorcycles. Why are they
entitled to escape taxation when those
who have couple hundred dollars
worth of furniture or an automobile
worth no more than a motorcycle
costs have to pay?
We hope the Commissioners will in
the month that still remains before
they make the levy will cite the hun
dreds of owners Of these machines
living in the county to come forward
and help pay their share OF taxes.
It's fair Mr.. Commissioners, SO
why not do it?

Ran Into Each Other.

While the streets were in darkness as
result of the lights going off during
the severe rain and electric storm about
10 O'Clock last Tuesday night, Messrs
Chas. X. Rhoderick, of The Register and
Walter White, of Shank's creamery,
both running to get out of the rain, col
lided with great force and both were Sc
verely injured.
The collision occurred under the trees
between the Opera House and Main
street. Mr.. Rhoderick was running
home to get lantern and Mr.. White
was running toward the Opera House.
Both ran together with te errific force and
were knocked down and stunned for a
few moments. Both managed to make
their way to the Opera House suffering
great pain. A lump the size of mans
fist, formed over Mr.. Whites left eye
and hung down over the eye, closing it.
There was also an abrasion over the eye
and he suffered much pain. A small
lump formed on Mr.. Rhoderick's fore
head and his neck and breast gave him
much pain all night. As White is head
the taller, he must have been running
with his head down, otherwise the blow
would have struck him on the chin. Mr..
Whites eye is still badly swollen. Both
made narrow escapes from more serious
injury. Just as the two collided, there
was binding fash of lightning and Mr..
Rhoderick thought it had struck him.
Mr.. White said when he began to recov-
er, he thought someone had hit him with
club. 1t was raining and intensely
dark and neither saw the other.-Valley
Register.
[Getting bumped and knocked down
simultaneously with clap of thunder is
far worse than the explosion of match
under your heel whena fash of lightning
occurs. Ed.

Dear A.
The Easter vacation is nearly over,
and am glad to say that have accom-.
plished much that l planned to do.
really am kept very busy. You see we
have school six days in the week, and
after school l have little class in Eng
lish. and on Sunday enjoy about the
same amount of Sabbath rest as our folks
at home in the parsonage do. | have q
class of very dear children in the foreign
Sunday School. Seven denominations
worship in this Union Church and it is
very happy church home. Just now, a
wheelbarrow procession is going by. Can
you appreciate what that means? The
coolies haul great loads of stone on them,
and generally travel in crowds of dozen
or more.
Their barrows squeak like the shrek
of the lost of the Inferno and how they
stand it don't know. Some one has
said that they say ''the squeak is cheap
er than the OIL" but l guess the real
reason is they don't mind it. Lots of
things that would make nervous wrecks
of us, squeaking doors, cracking looms as
they weave, rafting rickshas, swapping
of long finger nails, ETC., never phases
them. We had fine teacher in CONVEX
sation class one week, but he would snap
his long finger nails constantly, and some
of US sat with teeth on edge. So one
day unseen. of course) I snapped mine
too, but do you think he noticed it? No
indeed, not for an instant, for his ears
are attuned to the glad song which have
not yet learned to appreciate.
| wish you could see the people at work
on the manufacture of silk. The wash
ing, dyeing. winding, and then the weav-
ing Is all fascinating. The colors are so
lovely, and all along the street the women
are busy winding the silk on spools, and
nearby are large hanks of silk hanging
on bamboo sticks, the whole presenting
a most attractive picture. Ienjoy watch
ing them weave sort of Turkish towel.
The quality Is not extra, but then they
are used for almost any and everything.
