TEMPORARY HOSPITAL,

About 65 people met in the Palmer Comnun- ity Hall Tuesday evening of this week to hear the report of the Hos pital Plan ming Conrai ttee and to make further plans for continuing a Temporary Hospital in the Valley.
 pr. Hoehn es chairman of the Planning .Cormi tee, gave brief summary of what had been done so far. The prospects for a loan iron any source are not at the pre- sent time too bright. The people are not giving up hopes that somehow we will be able to cons truct a permanent Hospital. The need for temporary Hospital inmedt- ately cannot be stressed too strongly. At this ing very definite plans were laid and set in motion for the establt shment of temporary quarters for an emergency Hos- pital.
 pr. H. B. onodgrass, who has been in charge of obta ming Surplus Property ouonset huts, reported that he could get two such huts from the ATTY and that the Fair Associ iati on would pay for them. The big gest expense would be in taking then. down, bringing them to Palmer and erecting them here. Carl Meier and Oscar Kindgren vol- unteered to haul them if enough ren would go with then to take tn GIT down in day and bring then to Palmer. There were a nuEber of volunteers and Dr.. SIodgrass said that he would announce over the Air at what tine they could be gotten. Mrs. William onojgrass and Mrs. ZdkJohns vQ1- unteered to go wi tn the trucks and serve lunch to the who would do the work at the Fort. Many volun eered to help and others who could not get away to help with the work, donated money toward expenses. These huts are to be set up in connection with the former Akl es tad, house temp orary Hospital. The house is being rented to the Hos pital EssDc iation.

lie D. Kline, superintendent of Fred

that his first seasonal headache"
had been relieved-there are no
teacher vacancies to be filled.
He reported to the county school
board that not only were all the
schools thoroughly stated, but that
teachers had been employed for sew
eral new classrooms, where there
had been congestion.
The superintendent's troubles be-
gan less than a week after the
schools were opened for the fall and
winter session, when several high
school teachers resigned to take
positions elsewhere at higher sal
aries.
1t became necessary to suspend
classes in several schools until new
teachers could be found. Now it's
plain sailing again, and the super
intendent was giving attention to
plans for erecting a new central
high school.
