TABLETS MARK
BOMBS WORK

On the wall of the Credit Lyon
nais Bank. Rue de Choiseul. Paris,
a tablet has been placed bearing
the simple inscription: "Aeroplane
bomb, January 80, 1915" The min
istry of war has had tablets placed
on the walls Of the houses near
which the first and last bombs OF
the war fell in Paris, and it seems
to be the general custom for priv
ate individuals to mark with some
simple inscription the various point
OF the capital where damage was
done by German bombs Or shells.
The tablet ON the wall OF the
Credit Lyonnais recalls one Of the
most murderous air raids ever made
on Paris, 40 persons losing their
lives, while several hundred were
wounded. 1t was shortly after II
o'clock that the aerial torpedo. the
first of the raid, fell in the Rue de

President Henry Shagren of the
board presided at the meeting, and
William A. Fisher acted as secretary.
Frank Knapp announced that he did
not care to become a candidate for
reelection, and the nomination OF
Mr.. Elder was made unanimously.
Mr.. Knapp has served on the board
for more than ten years, for num-
ber of years having been clerk of the
board.

dinarily be voted on next summer,
election on December 3rd, although
the funds to be realized from such
levy will not be available for use un-
til the school year, commencing July
1st, 1922, and ending July 1st, 1928.
1t is to be earnestly hoped that no
misunderstanding will result from
this situation as it is absolutely ne
cessary in order to keep our schools
in operation and pay off past warrant
Indebtedness to pass this seven mill
extra levy.
1t must be borne in mind that this
special levy is 8 mills lower thar
those voted in the past, h'' lat it
is absolutely imperative that such
te-.y be made available. We trust
the voters will realize the Importance
of this matter, and any member of
board will be pleased to explain this
matter to anyone desiring further
information.
Lastly, it should be clearly under
stood that the matter of special levy
has nothing to do with the question
of a union high school, and the dis
tricts which are to vote on the ques-
tion have nothing to do with that
question. The special levy has been
in the past and is now again, needed
for the costs of our own local school,
and does not in any way effect the
districts which wish to join this dis
trict for high school purposes only
We trust that the district will give
decisive vote in favor of both the
questions which will be found on the
ballots, December 3rd.
By order of the board,
r. B. LIE Coco, Clerk.

OLD CLIPPING TELLS HOW
LYNDEN CELEBRATED IN 1885

How LINDEN celebrated the Christ
mas of 1885, is told in clipping out
of the old Pioneer-Press, found this
week by John Bussard while he was
remodelling his home. The clipping
was found behind a window casing.
The heading is "Lynden and Wes-
ley" Wesley being the name given
the district on the Hawley land at
the east end of Lynden. The follow
ing is the item:
1--WE had a most enjoyable time i'll
Mr.. Judson's hall on Christmas Eve,
with a tree well supplied for the little
ones and an excellent programme of
music, tableaus, reading, etc, for the
older ones. 1t was the first public
celebration of Christmas in Lynden,
and it was voted by all who attended
a grand success. On Christmas day,
we had a free picnic dinner in the
same hall at which nearly hundred
people were bounteously fed. Many
wondered that so large a number
could get together in this back woods
on such an occasion, but if there is
anything that will call out the inmost
sympathies of people, and especially
bachelors, it is one of those good old
fashioned Christmas dinners such as
our mothers used to make. And we
had it. After dinner, though the az
Iternoon was little showery, several
of our young folks went to the Cross
ing to take in the dance Mr.. Eby

house, and the frame of Mr.. Bus
