WANTS ROAD FIXED
SiIetz, Or, April "a,

Lincoln County Leader,
Dear Editor
! wish to write to you en- open letter
concerning road matters in the Lower
Siletz ~ .--....,., 4,
We have been notified by the mali
carrier that there will be no more
Parcel Post and no more cream haul
ed out of this section until the road
between Mowerys Landing and the
Siletz Agency is made passable.
do not blame the mail carrier. 1t
is a wonder to me that he did not
balk on the job long ago. But, / do
blame the County Court for their in
action. Perhaps the Honorable Court
is too old to lead the tlocks of Nebo
much longer. And again perhaps it
would be better for the public II the
old time Road District System was re-
established.
They say, "Where there is will.
there is way" Let us hear from the
Court. Yours truly,
Sondre Romtvedt.

LADY DANCERS
MUST PAY WAR TAX

U. S. Revenue Collector Davis or
Eugene was a Toledo visitor the first
of the week, checking up on the amuse-
ment houses in this section. Mr.. Da-
Wis stated that some of the dances
given in this county had unwittingly
violated the revenue law-for instance
when dance is advertised as gents
Isl 90 ladies free, it is necessary that
'the management collect ten cents war
tax from each gent and also ten
cent war tax from each lady dancer
attending. Or if the dance is S1.00
per couple then the couple pays 10
cents war tai and each unsttended
lady pays 10 cents war tax, etc. II
it is so cents per couple then they
would pay cents war Jar, and each
unattended lady would be required to
pay the same.

BRIDGE QUESTION
TO BE VOTED ON

At the coming election to be held
the 21st of this month the question
of voting funds for the building of a
bridge across the Yaquina river here,
and the building of road from the end
of tits bridge to Elk City will de-
cided
Th. ballot title of this measure is
rr slows. si-s.s
Shall there be issued bonds of Lin
coin County to the amount of One
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1OO,-
00G00) due in fifteen years, with in
teIest at six per cent per annum,
to provide for permanent road con-
struction?
There is no question but what this
bridge and road are badly needed. 1t
will open up for settlement the large
territory lying between the Alsea and
Yaquina rivers, which now is bottled
up and has no outlet The additional
property that would be thus created
and placed on the tax roll would more
than pay the cost of the bridge.
a vote for the bridge is vote for
greater Lincoln county.

is the very simple matter of cut
ting the center out of a big square
of the material. If you find duvetyne
just a bit more costly than you would
have it, a black satin with some col
orful wool ought to work up quite
as successfully here. or
Now for the demure little thing so
happily treated to uncut fringe. Let
that be of tricolette, as so many, of
the seasons smarest blouses are, and
have the fringe of wool strands just
for the sake of contrast. You might
further the contrast by having the
fringe of another color, too, from
, that of the blouse itself. What do
you say to a scheme Of old brick
and old blue?
Which brings us to the final confec-
ton that so uniquely uses satin to
weight the exquisite f1imsiness of
the rest of it. Orange georgette and
nut brown satin. with the decorative
wheels stitched in old gold threads,
is calculated to look every bit as
charming as it sounds. Cut here is
almost negligible, the model being
the very conventional round-necked
kimono blouse pattern. a,.
