DISPATCH MOVES
TO MULTIPLICATION

If the paper doesn't come up to
standard this week, the editor of the
Dispatch asks to be excused on the
grounds that he has been up to his
ears in moving. The new home Of The
Dispatch is located in the back room
Of Stoll's garage, next door to the
post office.
Moving the heavy equipment out of
the basement of the Weller building
where it was formerly located, pre-
sented a huge task, but through the
kind cooperation of Harold Stoll and
his wrecker we were able to lift the
linotype machine and presses from the
low entrance way to level ground, and
from there the wrecker hauled the ma
chinery to its new home. The linotype
weighs around two tons, but the hoist
on the wreeker swung it right out
without apparent effort.
The new office building has a &C.
ment floor and four large windows
which will make the shop an enjoy
able place to work.
Patrons and friends of The Dis
patch are cordially invited to come
in and visit the new quarters, which
we hope to have Strengthened out by
Saturday.

TWO NEW TEACHERS
IN CoULEE SCHOOL

AT the regular monthly meeting of
the town council on Wednesday the
question of the Sunday sale of beer
was brought up. The present ordinance
prohibits the sale of beer on Sunday,
but local vendors protested this section
because they stated the beverage could
be procured within short distance of
Coulee and this made the ordinance
ineffective as far MS stopping it's CON
sumption here.
Following discussion of the pres
ent measure, it was decided to draw up
q new ordinance which will permit the
sale of beer to conform with the Steele
law, allowing the dispensing of the
beverage between the hours Of 6 to IL
every day, including Sundays.
A tentative budget was drawn up
and will be completed when the city's
valuation is received from the county
seat.

VALLEY HIDES
MODERN CAMP
Electrical Plant and Water System
Give Men ALI Comforts of
City Life

Tucked way back toward the bot
tom of Dry Falls is neat array of
buildings, five to be exact, which is
headquarters and camp to group of
nineteen men employed through WPA
funds to make extensive improvements
on the state park. This camp is really
more than just that, because upon clo-
ser observation the visitor finds that
a complete electric light plant and
water system are installed there which
serves the workmen, and gives them
all the conveniences of city life.
A large mess hall occupies q promin-
ent place in the group, and the hard
working cooks have huge stove heat
ed by electricity and fuel oil to do
their cooking upon. The hall has q
seating capacity of nearly 100.
Shower Room
An important structure is the show
er room, which is equipped with sew
eral shower fixtures and has hot wa-
ter tank, giving the men all the neces-
sary elements for sanitation. Other
buildings are clubhouse, office quar-
tiers and fine cellar.
Ten kilowatts of electricity are gen.
Grated by motor-driven electrical
plant, which has enough power to
serve large community. Water is
flumed for about a quarter Of mile
to small reservoir and then pumped
to storage tank over the bath house.
A trip back into the coulee will be
a real surprise to anyone who doesn It
already know what is going on IN that
lonely-looking part of the gorge. Be-
yond the camp farther back toward
the bottom of the falls are a thousand
wonders to the average layman IS eyes.
A myriad of lakes, streams, caves and
fossils is contained in that area, and
if visitors fail to see that portion of
the park, they will have missed one of
the most wonderful spots in the world
for geological history of the country.
Many Caves
The coulee wall contains many caves
that one may enter and secure bits of
petrified wood and limestone, which
often show the marks Of leaves and
other foliage, imprinted there over a
period of years the total of which is
almost inconceivable,
Many people living right here in
the Big Bend country do not fully
realize the beauty and many wonders
bestowed to this part of the world
when she took it in her figurative head
to change the course of the Columbia
river.
