Under this dangerous political power measure,a "Joint Commission" made up of public utitity districts outside our county can easily take over our power property. We and our neighbors will have nothing to say about it. l What’s more, we’ll have nothing to say trom then on as to the rates we'll pay, the service we'tt get, the taxes we'll have to meet, the bond issue we will have to help pay!

It is hoped that replace— ment can be made. as soon as the. war is .OVer. An addition may soon be necessary to the Junior high school, for as the pupils of the grades now overcrowd class- rooms, so they will overflll the already occupied Junior high school. “The great value of, and need for athletic activities in the schools has been amply proven, .but we. are. now somewhat handi- capped at present by several lacks. The grandstand is of tem- lporary construction and in poor repair. Replacement of it by a new and more adequate structure will enable larger crowds to at- tend the games played at the. home field. “For a number of years there has been much interest in swim classes during the summer, thanks to several organizations, especial- ly the Active Club. At one time lthcre was strong sentiment for inclusion of a swimming pool in the new gym. The directors are reliably informed that a pool can be built next to the gym at reas- 1 onable cost, and possibly to bet- ter advantage than in the original building. An indoor pool would offer a wonderful opportunity for Ithe young people of our commun- ‘ity. It is planned to include swim- ming as a necessary requirement} for a PE. credit, which means[ that all the young people will'i I in construction and in facilities for care of a pool remove objec- tions which may have been im- portant at an earlier time. “Finally there are two impor- tant reasons for voting locally it may well be possible to ‘get matching funds from either state or federal governments for our projects, thereby reducing the amount of local money which would have to be spent. Some government funds appear already to have been promised to those school districts which have build- ing funds on hand in reasonable amounts. "A further advantage in the form of postwar. employment for Mason county people will accrue to a well-planned building pro- gram for our public school system, which with other projects for the postwar era will assist in pro- viding the full employment so necessary to happiness and pros- perity.” Couple Married ‘ At Potlatch l y Elizabeth Hussman '; Potlatch, Oct. quiet wed- ding was solemnized Saturday evening, October at the home of Rev. and Mrs. Pickering, un- iting Ruel Pierce of Eldon d Miss Eleanor Edwards of aheotwer, «BC.
