CHAUTAUQUA FESTIVAL

Something like a year ago num-
ber of business men of Oroville sign
ed up contract in order to ind Ice
the appearance in town of the Eli
sOn-White Chautauqua attractions.
The date for the festival which is to
cover five nights. was first fixed for
November 2-7. but the influenza with
its accompanying ban on public meet
ings put an end to all prospects of
the festival at that time. In
deed, the epidemic upset the plans of
Messrs. Ellison and White all over
the country. However. with the dis
appearance of the malady the various
attractions were put upon the road
and a new schedule of dates arranged.
Under this new plan the festival opens
in the high school auditorium, the
only hall in town where stage enter
tainments can be given, next Monday
evening and will continue through
the week until Friday evening. The
program offered is one that cannot
fail to please. 1t will be a diversity
of attractions with every number an
entertainment of high order of
merit Chautauquas have the repu-
tation of presenting the very best
talent before the public and the one
billed for Oroville for next week be
no expection to the rule.

BACK TO PRIMATIvE LIGHTING

In order to fully appreciate some
modern convenience it is necessary to
be deprived of that convenience after
having enjoyed it without Interrupt
tion for some years. This fact was
exempified in Orovilel during the past
several days when, on account of the
necessity of making repairs at the
power plant, the electric service was
cut off temporarily. That suspension
of service worked complete trans
formation in the appearance of the
town, with the accompanying incou :
venience to the inhabitants thereof.
There are few better or more extern
sively lighted small towns in the state
than Oroville. Looking at the place
on higher ground from any direction
after night and the stranger is given
the impression that the town is many
times larger than it really is. On ac-
out, a thin veneer on the face of a
broad fiat it is found that street lights
must be scattered here, there and
everywhere for the accommodation of
the householder, hence when darkness
spreads It's mantle over the valley a
distant view of the townsite gives
the impression that wide expanse
of territory is sOwn thick with stars.
During the past week those eyclama-
tion points of light have been absent
and the town has ben wrapped in
gloom with here and there a feeble
ray of light cast BY lamp or candle
from occupied residences. hardly
bright enough to attract attention.
When we had the lights we were
prone to kick without electric lights
for a short time any kind of service
is considered better than none. Even
in this one item of artificial light we
of advanced years can well say that
the good old days were not sucn good
old days that We would care to return
to them.

THAT NEW GARAGE

Mention was made last week that
the Bowen Auto Company was MAX
ing plans for the construction of a
modern garage on the vacant lots on
Main street adjoining F. V. Covert's
block to the south After the paper
was published letter was received
from NJ. f.. Bowen, the head of the
company who confirms the report
and gives the following additional
particulars:
We have purchased the property
OF L. c. Countryman, being two lots
on Main street. We will construct a
5Ox13O tile garage, with basement.
The front will be of brick. This will
be one of the finest and most complete
buildings erected especially for a gar
age in eastern Washington. The plans
are furnished by the oFrd Motor Co.
and promises to be something entirely
new in garage construction in this
part of the country. 1t will certainly
be an Improvement that Oroville NAV
well be proud of. We are planning to
spend between $1,000 and $4,000 on
the. building without equipment. G.
M. Scott of Seattle will have charge
OF the sales and general management
OF the place Mr.. Bales, who has
demonstrated his efficiency by his
skill as a doctor of Ford cars. will
be in charge of the service and repair
department The repair shop will be
modern in all its appointments. and
thoroughly competent crew of me-
chanics will be prepared to expedi-
tlously and thoroughly fill all orders
for repairs. We expect to give the
people of Oroville guaranteed repair
work in every case. Mr.. Scott and
myself are now in Seattle buying ma
chlnery and equipment for the new
building. T. F. Doan of Bellingham
is the architect who will be in charge
Construction will start as soon as the
material can be obtained"
