NEW DRAINAGE DISTRICT

Attorney A. C. Gordon and Engin-

the necessary preliminary work for
the organization of a new drainage
district to drain the fine bottom
lands north and east OF Lamar be-
tween the Amity Canal and the riv-

Mitchell, representing the land
owners in the district will appear
before the county commissioners
April % and ask for the holding of
an election to establish the district.
The district will be known as the
Vista del Rio Drainage District, and
will include nearly five thousand
acres of land, q considerable portion
of which is needing draining at this
time. This district unlike most of
the districts is SO situated that
both drainage and irrigation can be
carried on within it's boundaries
and the water taken from seeped
lands in the Arkansas Valley, and
when the project is completed it
will do much to increase the pro
ductiveness of that part of the La
mar territory. The boundaries of
the district are defined in the notice
published by the committee in an
other column of The Register-La-

months than Wiley. And not the
least of these losses was the death
Of Herbert s. Parker. which occur
red Tuesday afternoon. April l, at
4:45. Mr.. Parker had been in poor
health for the past five years and
although he looked well man,
those who were his close personal
friends knew that it would not be
long until the end would come.
About the first Of last December he
went to Long Beach Calf, where 1t
was thought in the lower altitude
he might find relief from his trouble
that of high blood pressure. The
change failed to bring relief and he
returned to his home here March l,
took to his bed and remained there
the greater part of the time until his
death.
Mr.. Parker had lived here so long
and become such part in the af-
fairs of the town that it will be
some time before we become accus-
toned to not see his face and hear
his voice Coming here from Mon
tana about eleven years ago he
started in the general mercantile
business and his close personal in
terest in the business together with
his natural ability, made his place
of business the leading establish
ment of the town for some time.
About two years ago he sold the
grocery department of the store to
the SnOdgrass Food company and
engaged in the dry goods business
exclusively, moving the stock to the
Odd Fellows building at the corner
of Main and First streets. In this
latter business he was a splendid
success, and within the past two
weeks was conducting one of the
largest special sales ever held in the
town. Mr. Parker served as mayor
one year and as member of the
town council ever since the town
started. He was booster the like
of which is hard to find. He believ-
ed in his town and the people of
the town, and showed his interest in

The Journal has lost true friend
in his death. Not week has pass
ed since the establishment of the
paper but what his business was
represented in it's columns. Through
prosperity and adversely, he always
had a good word for the local news
paper, and Mr. Parker's words of op-
tfmism for the future OF the paper
and the town, caused the present
management to decide ON locating
here.
Herbert S. Parker was born in
Paris, Ontario, December 2, 1876, be
ing AZ years, 3 months and 20 days
Of age at the time of his death.
In 1899 he was married to Miss
Anna Coffin, who with three broth
ers and one sister survive him.
When a boy he united with the
EpiscOpalian church and about two
years ago united with the Metho-
dist church of Wiley. He was also
member of the local Odd Fellows
lodge and of the Masonic lodge of
Lamar.
The funeral service was held Fri
day afternoon at o'clock from the
Methodist church, Rev. Gaines as
sisted by Rev. Funk conducting the
service. The Masonic lodge of La
