WESTON SCHOOLS


The state examinations begin
Thursday for the eighth grade.
Owing to the fact that the school
year has been shortened, it has
meant very hard work for the pu-
pills. They have met the situation
well and have worked overtime in
order to complete the task. Miss
Love feels confident they will pass.
Because Memorial Hall is not yet
ready the Senior class play, "All-of-
a-Sudden Peggy" has been post
poned from May II to May %.
The Seniors this year are adding
another event to Commencement
activities. They intend giving a
Glass Day program Saturday, May
"a. to which the public is invited.
They will tell what they are leaving
to the lower class men and will also
give history of their school days
and a prophecy of their future.
This promises to be very interest
ing, both to the school and to the
townspeople.
The fourth grade pupils are
writing poetry, and a number OF
their efforts are worth reading.
May
In the fairest month of May
When the children love to play,
Where the bees in clover hum
There the children play and run.
And the brook chartered down the
way
By the sweet and smelling hay,
And the flowers are in full bloom
And they have a sweet perfume.
The Brook and the Lily
Once there was little brook
Running through a little nook
And / found it one day
As / ran along to play.
In it Isaw a lily fair
Floating on the water there,
Bobbing here and bobbing there
Dancing here and everywhere.
But say no more about this flower,
1t is gone to return no more;
This little brook in the little nooks
Was blessed by this little flower.

SAND WILL DO IT.

I observed a locomotive in the rail
 road yards one day, It was waiting in the roundhouse
 where the locomotives stay; It was panting for the journey, 1t
 was coaled and fully manned, And it had a box, the fireman was
 filling full of sand. It appears that locomotives cannot
 always get a grip On their slender iron pavement,
 cause the wheels are apt to slip; And when they reach slippery
 spot their tactics they com And to get a gripe upon the rail,
 they sprinkle it with sand. It's about the way with travel along
 Ifes slippery track. If your laad is rather heavy you're
 always slipping back So, If common locomotive you
 completely understand You'll provide yourself in starting
 with a good supply of sand. If your track is steep and hiIly and
 you have a heavy grade, If those who've gone before you
 have the rails quite slippery
 made,
 If you ever reach the summit of the
 upper table land, You'll find you'll have to do it with
 a liberal use of sand. If you strike some frigid weather
 and discover to your cost That you're liable to slip up on a:
 heavy coat of frost, Then some prompt decided action
 will be called into demand, And you'll slip way to the bottom
 If you haven't any sand. You can get to any station that is
 on life's schedule seen If there's fire beneath the boiler of
 ambitions strong machine, And you'll reach a place called Flushtown at a rate of speed that's grand.

COLVILLE SHIPPING POINT
FOR BIG FREIGHT BUSINESS

Business, men of Colville will be
interested to know the source of the
revenue that comes to their tills, and
no illustration more directly places
them in possession Of the fact than
the figures for month of activity
at the Great Northern railway sta
ton in this city. Through this sta
ton practically all the business of the
city passes in one form or another.
Speaking in car lots, during the
month of August the Standard Oil
Co. received for local distribution six
tank cars of gasoline averaging
about 10000 gallons each, or 10000
gallons of gas which this concern
distributed to consumers in the Col
vile district which includes all the
country north of the international
boundary in Stevens county and ex-
tending west into Ferry county
along the G. N. Ry., and as far south
as Addy. This does not include case
goods in mixed orders of gasoline,
lubricating oils and the like which
run approximately two car loads per
month. a..
For the local merchants an aver
age of one car day received is re-
ported. Jobbers to the trade Of

camps will run three cars each week
of mixed merchandise, feed and farm
products. A large part of the mer-
chandise received in syrup, sugar,
salt, soap and crockery comes in car
lots from the producer and is dis
tributed to the merchants direct
from the car. Sugar is unloaded
here in storage and is sold as needed
to the merchants by the City Trans
fer
August was light month, per-
haps the lightest of the year because
there was little movement Of grain,
or of future stocks ordered by mer-
chants for the fall and winter trade.
According to the records at the sta
ton, exclusive of Standard Oil, the
Following shipments of car lots are
shown
Received: 1 car sugar, / car hay,
3 cars coal, 2 cars (immigrant). l
car soap, 1 car cattle from Curlew,
car Portland cement, 1 car auto
mobiles, l car salt.
Forwarded: 73 cars lumber, car
shingles, % cars poles, 1 car fence
posts, Is cars dolomite, 3 cars hay,
2 cars cattle. Because of the lack
of cars % car loads of poles that
should have gone out in August We're
delayed until September.
During the summer months, ship
ments Of lumber and poles are more
active. Poles are shipped to the
Mississippi valley and the South,
lumber mostly to Spokane. Farm
products, including livestock, have not
commenced to move, but after Sep
tember, timber products will drop
off and fruit, grain, hay, livestock
and flour will predominate.
The freight business of the Col
vile. station for the month of Aug
ust was 34,794 of which $11,954 was
collected here and $22,Sd1 was for
collection at destination. In addition
to the freight business the passenger
ticket sales aggregated $4,000.
The station is also charged with
the handling of express and tele-
graph business, being the agency for
the American Railway Express Co.

der lease from the G. N. Ry. Co.
Approximately 1900 shipments by
