WHEN HVnOOGRE IS
FINALLY DEVELOPED


/
The amount Of timber on the inn
pounding basin up to an elevation Of
100 feet is about 100000 feet, most
Of which will be actually utilized IN
construction. So there is no great
amount Of timber to be removed from
the impounding BASIN other than that
which is actually used in the course
of construction.
The Bond Ordinance
T IS necessary under the Law 70
provide a bond issue to take care Of
the plan or system that is adopted BY
the voters for ultimate development.
This has been provided in the bond
ordinance which is now before the city
council.
It IS TO be said that the $1,000, 900
bond issue covers the power devel-
opment. and is to be reduced to the
extent that there is any construction
under the bond ISSUE It being the
intention to make the combined water
and power development, IS ultimately
contemplated, within the $2,000.000
bond issue, which was originally sub
mifted to the voters on December1,
1923.
Marketing Power
It is just about as easy to determine
the saturation point for the market
ing Of automobiles as it would be to
determine the saturatoin point for the
marketing of power.
In fact the saturation point for the
use Of power is greater than the sat-
uration point would be in the market
ing Of automobiles.
The old cry that it would not be
long before the automobiles would be
drug on the market, because there
would be so many secondhand cars;
and that before long all people who
could afford automobiles would have
theirs, and that the factories would
have to shut down and go out Of bus
mess.
When the Port Of Grays. Harbor
was in the imagination Of those who
had the vision to see what the future
had in store for the Harbor by it's
creation, there were many who said
there was no need for the Port Docks.
It was contended that the mill docks
of the various mills on the Harbor
were adequate to meet the Harbor
needs. There was no thought upon
the part Of some, Of the demand for
dockage, that was lying dormant from
sources outside the Harbor cities.
Yet those who did see the vision,
such as Frank H. Lamb, Of Hoquiam,
have lived to see the fruition of their
dreams of world port on Grays Har-

A nice little wedding was solem-
nized over on Crooked Run last
Tuesday when Miss Ethyl Dye, who
has been employed at Columbus for
several years, was married at the
home of her mother, Mrs. Hattie

that Rev. Misel, a farmer of Man

tentive audience.

party was composed of Cyrus Dick
inson of Lowell, his brother Alon-
20 of Hammond; Mr.. and Mrs. VIM.
Dickinson and son and daughter of
Gary. If it hadn't been for these

been no reunion. The blame for all
this was put on the weatherman,

fiiver that would plow through the
mud without any wear and tear and
extra exertion at the steering wheel.

Ultimatum From p. o. Department

The following is sent out from the
post office department, with request
for publication
A drive to either improve or elimi-
nate the hundreds of short stretches
lof bad roads which are retarding the
Ispeedy rural service desired by the
post office department has been ini-
.tiated by Fourth Assistant POST
master General Billany. Ultimatum
lis given by him that where rural
carriers or postmasters are unsuc-
.cessful in obtaining prompt i'm
provement of these bad road stretch
.es, the offending portion OF the rural
route will be cut offsfr0m service un-
til such time as conditions are bet
tered. The department is working
on the Theory it is better that o few
patrons be incOmmoded than deliver
les of the majority Of patrons be de-
layed from three to four hours daily
on account Of the undue amount Of
time consumed on bad road sections.
Use of the automobile on ruraI
routes the year around with the re-
suit Of speeding up service On all
routes, is the object of the cam
paign which naturally will be APP
plauded by all rural carriers.
1t is pointed out that the majority
Of the bad road stretches referred TO
are only from two to three. miles
long and some of them less than
this in length
The first step suggested to be TAX
en- by rural carriers and po3tmasters
relative to remedying Of conditions
on such routes is statement of the
situation to proper county CIR state
authorities. 1t is only when cooper
alton by local road chiefs is refus
ed that reports should be made to
General Billany and it will only be
when the department itself fails to
get action, that cuTtailInent Of ser
vices on offending routes will be or
dered
