CORRESPONDENT TALKS
OF CONSOLIDATION

Special to the News Record
Burton, Washington, Feb. 81.
The people of Lislbeula and
South Heights who did not hear
our county superintendent s talk
on taxation and consolidation,
missed a lot of valuable informa-
ton and as taxpayers and parents
we believe every one should be as
well informed as possible. We
cannot give you figures as given
by Professor Burrows but we can
tell you that all his points We're
in favor of consolidation. You
will have another opportunity to
hear directly from our county
Supt. all facts annd figures and to
afk any or all the questions you
care to for Prof. Burrows will
tell us all about consolidation and
its benefits, and how much more
effective our schools will be when
teacher will have only two grades
to teach instead of eight as so
often happens.
Safety of transportation was
taken up and the point brought
out that the school bus is the
means of making and maintain
ing better roads, and in this case
it might be the means of building
the road already surveyed along
the beach from Burton south and
connecting Magnolia beach and
other points directly with Burton
and schools, and in that way the
small school conducted at Mag
nolia beach could be done away
with and to great advantage
to taxpayers and to the scholars
too. OF course there must be
some way to take care of the
children along the beach and
that must be decided by the nine
directors who will constitute the
board for the first year if con
solidation comes. Shelters to
wait in; text books-every thing
that goes to the making of good
schools, was discussed. One per
son asked if the removal of the
schools to another district or in
other words-if consolidation
would not reduce the value Of
properties or make selling more
difficult. The answer was, that
good schools with careful trans.
portation would be inclined to in
crease the valuation and would be
apt to draw good class of people

MUSICAL AND UNUSUAL
LECTURE PtEASES ALL

Lack of time and space pre-
vents us giving any detailed ac-
count of Mr.. Birch's lecture in
our paper this week, We took
time to attend it on an evening
when we usually work, and this
fact in itself shows that we tho
it would be really good and we
were not disappointed. Not on
ly is the speaker a master music
ian but the musician is a thinker
and very entertaining slaaker,
an unusual combination, which is
backed in the case of Mr.. Birch
with a wonderfully interesting
and long experience and a real de-
size and talent to serve humanity.
"Bugle Echoes" will remain with
us always as a unique amid high
grade observation-disclosures.

out was that il is poor economy

BE sure to attend the talk given
by Supt, Burrows al Lisabeula ON
Thursday 2sth inst, 1t is your
duty as n good citizen to know
all you can ON this line for we
are sure we all want what is best
for the children and your taxes
will not be increased ON that ac-
count nor will your property de
crease in value nor selling posi-
bilities, so let's all of us attempt
to give this subject careful

The News-Record folk with j.
II. Hayes as chauffeur and guide
took a very pleasant drive over
the island southeast, south and
west of Vashon on Sunday after
noon. Two hours and quarter
took us the round trip, beginning
with the Beall Greenhouses thru
Bllisporf, Portage, Quartermas-'
ter, Burton, Lisabeula and Cove.
And we saw more orchards, vim
yards, gardens, poultry farms
than we have seen ever in the
same extent of territory. The
beauty of these with the homes
that claim them along the fine
roads of the island, are a marvel
to us. The first trip around was
filed with series of interesting
sights and we want to go over
the route again. Then, they say
here is Paradise Valley and we
Just wonder what is in store for
us then-if the name is anything

To all but our own dooryards, now we know
That all the country over even so
Dwell others in their dooryards, like us training
The grapevine on its trellis. or complaining
Because the beets aren't doing well this year
Our ears, that only heard our echoes, hear
The kindred speech of brothers, coast to coast
Welded more surely we have learned TO boast

STORIES OF SUCCESS OF
FARMING IM MONTANA

supply is sold out, the truck is
brought into action and potatoes of a
quality which will sustain the repu-
tation of the farm are purchased
from neighbors, near or far. Every
effort is made to fill the wants of
customers and thus reputation for
dependability has been established.
II never want to leave Montana .
Olinger says. 81 have always liked
it better here than in any other place
I have farmed. I believe that the
methods I have outlined will make
it possible for me not only to live
well here but to prosper. My gross
income in 1923 averaged little
higher than $55 per acre, which left
something more than $40 per acre
over and above our living expenses
and the cost of operating the farm.
Intelligent diversification and care
full study of the markets help the
farmer to succeed, no matter where
he lives"

A group of men in Missoula be-
came interested and organized a
company for it's manufacture and dis
tribution. The device is at present
being manufactured in Toledo, Ohio
The No. 4 size is now on the market
and according to officers of the COM
pany has had ready sale.
The main features of this trap are
lightness, ability to regulate the ten
sion of the setting, positive action,
and absolute safety and ease in set
ting and adjusting. A special feat
ure of the trap lies in the fact that
as the trap is sprung, the tension
spring acts simultaneously with the
trigger and pulls it sharply down,
causing the trap to jump over IL
inches into the air, and thus obtains
a better holding point on the animal.
The company intends to manufac-
ture the trap in larger sizes, as the
principle can be applied equally we'll
to traps for coyotes, beaver or any
other animal.

SIxTHGRADE YOUTH ON WAY
TO SUCCESS AS CLAY MODELER

An embryo sculptor has been un-
covered in Livingston, Guthorn Egg
gar, 17-year-old lad of the sixth
grade of the Central school. He
molds statuary of clay which he digs
from the hills short distance from
Livingston. A specimen of an ape
in standing position resting his left
hand on tree stump in front of him
was shown as sample of some of
the work the lad is turning out The
small bit of statuary was made with
out a picture for model and is a
good specimen of handicraft, consid-
ering the material and tools the boy
used and the absence of a picture or
living model. The boy said that he
has been doing this work for some
time without teacher or any in
whatver.
