Although the jinx which has at­tached Itself to Columbia Falls high! school athletics the past season per­sists in showing up Just In time to prevent that school from being repre­sented In the different athletic meets, thero were many from here who at­tended the Tri-county track meet in Whiteflsh last Saturday «Afternoon and enjoyed the program thoroughly.

The foreign Vanguage students of 5 the Columbia Falls High school are

preparing an entirely novel sort of entertainment for the townspeople

) and patrons o f the school. Under ; the direction o f Miss Hamilton, the 1 language Instructor, Latin,1 French t and Spanish playlets are being learn- i ed They will be staged at the High . School auditorium on Friday even­

ing, May 1«. The small sum of 10 ! ®®nte will bp charged,In. ordor to . defray a few minor expenses.

Folks may think that a program i of this sort can not be very Inter­

esting. since very few understand "'the languages in which the ptays will ho presented, but all the stu­dents ask is a chance to show them. A aynopsls of each play will be given In English before the ourtaln rises, and- the action and inflection of the actor’s voice will make the play* In-

, telllgible. The students are work­ing especially hard on this program and are endeavoring valiantly to mako It “ the best ever.”

Musical numbers and a solo dance will be Included for variation. T^iere •t least is something all will under-

The body o f George H. Chagrin, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Clu&un of the 8tnte Mill, was brought to this city 8unday and the funeral services were held Monday afternoon from the Methodist church, Reverend Frame officiating.

The young man was aocideutly shot Friday while staying with his brother at Sand Point. Ida., and died the following day in the Sand Point hos­pital!

The deceased camo to this locality with his parents In the spring of last year and worked for the State Lumb­er Co., until a few weeks ago when he left for Sand Point. He was known as an honest and Industrious lad and was well liked by the younger people. He was born at Minneapolis. Minn.. In July, 1905, and was 18 years o f ‘ age. ^Besides the father and mother,

I he leaves two brothers and a sister,! have, the slncetp sympathy of!| many friends and neighbors, j The pallbearers, at the funeral i were Legnord McCarty, W. G. Bosley. -A-H - im tUrow Earl Toutant. Nell Brynon and Carl Anderson. The choir was composed of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Arnett and Mr. and Mrs. H. L. Lokensgard with Mrs. C. McCarty at the organ. Interment was made In Woodlawn cemetery.

s Stableman, Mr. Ruble, t The iblg pond is full o f logs for the s mill to start work on, and the work- o f hauling more logs will start at J Mice over the five and a half miles of i standard built trade which extends t into the heart o f the company's tlm-- her holdings.* Two carloads o f planing machinery- were recently unloaded and this sec-- Mon will soon be ready for oparaUon.

A large crew o f cedar pole makers is at work and another crew is en-

I «aged In clearing up land for a cedar r yard. This yard la Just off the main i line of tbeGreat Northern and will

be tapped by a stub switch.- The Installation of a Are protection

■ system is well under way. Six-Inch mains are being laid and 25 Corey hydrants will be installed. A preaure

■ of 150 pounds can be secured and tho ■jfstem will extend to every part of the mill and yards.

The company also maintains a tmkll herd o f dairy cows and a flnti P «V of thoroughbred Chester White ptjs. ' - -------- -

Although the new mill Is not clalm-■ ed to .be the largest of Its kind, yet

there Is every reason to believe that It will be a successful, enterprise, furnishing steady employment to many men for years to come. It is

i an added Industry for the county and is welcomed as such'.

the petitioners were unable to meet the requirements ot a, federal aid road the. commissioners unanimously agreed to undertake tho project on a tWo-unit basis, extending over a per­iod o f two years. This permits the petitioners who signed up with labor donations to work out their share o r tc pay cash; as they desire.

According to the agreement sub­mitted and accepted by the board, the work will start at the top of the Hell­er hill and will be completed as far south as the Nutter hall, or very ' close to that point, and the remain-¡' Ing three miles to connect with thé; old graveled road will be finished next ! : year. The agreement also permits t the signers to pay hal f their donation ' this year and half next either ■ !In work or cash. j

The outcome of the movement ! started by east side farmers early this spring is highly salfefactary to people all over the county, but parti- culariy to those fanners living near­est the road and to the townspeople.It is an Improvement that has long been needed and Is the first gravel­ed highway to connect Columbia Fall« with the east side district. t

can be understood or not, may we point out the fact that It is a school function and that as such it ougl^ to be encouraged? You may have wondered what students do when they are In echool. Here Is your chance to find out. "Come one, conie all”— see what'good foreigners we’d make.
