CITY PURCHASES
POWER MOWER

The Village Board last Monday de-
cided to purchase a power lawn
mower and in very short time the
matter had been taken up with
John w. Morton, member of the
park board, and after Mr.. Morton
had agreed to give the city whole
sale price on the machine, it was or
dered and delivered. The new NOW
er is capable of cutting five acres of
lawn per day and inasmuch as the
work of the park tender had prac-
tioally doubled this year with the adj
dition of the two new parks it was
deemed good business to make this
investment rather than to pay out
extra money In securing additional
help.

FIRE DESTROYS
BARN And HAY
Blaze On Wednesday After
noon Is Supposed To Be
Result Of Children
Smoking

The Mountain Home Fire Depart
ment was called out last Wednesday
afternoon about two-thirty to ex-
tinguish blaze in barn belonging
TO w. s. Lee, located just in the rear
of the residence of Domingo Asumen-
di. Upon the arrival of the depart
ment it was found that the flames
had gained such Roadway that about
all the boys could do was to confne
them to the one structure. The
building was a complete loss as well
as about fifteen or sixteen tons of
baled hay. There was no insurance
on either the building nor it's con-
tents
1t is the superstition that the fire
was started as the result of a num-
Der of children smoking near the
building as they were seen there by
several neighbors just before the
alarm was sounded.

AUTO COLLISION
FRIDAY EVENING

Another Mountain Home car was
damaged again last Friday evening
by the lack of observance of traffic
rules, whenl Dale Vandegrift was
driving his Ford car around the cor
ner at Browns Cigar Store. A tour
list passing through the city, instead
of turning ito the right turned right
into Vandegrift's car and smashed up
the fender. This is one of the worst
corners for accidents in the city as
cars are permitted to park right up
to the corner, which hampers the
view of the highway for motorists
making the turn.

The question of the validity of the

definitely settled today for the com
