Dan McDougald Dies In Portland, Oregon Son of Mrs. Julia McDougald of Cameron Passed Away on Thanksgiving Day Mrs. Julia McDougald received a message frorn Portland, Oregon that her son, Dan McDougald died in a hospital there on Thanksgiving day. Dan was born and reared in Cameron and was a boy of a quiet, lovable dis- l>osition, always obedient and respect ful to his teachers. He received the prize the last year he was in school for being the best all-round pupil. The funeral was held from the un dertaker’s parlors, and a prayer ser vice was conducted at the grave by a Presbyterian minister. Mr. McDou gald was 45 years of age and was con nected for the last 14 years with a big lumber company in Portland. He is survived by his mother, Mrs. Ju lia McDougald; one sister, Mrs. H. D. Tally, both of Cameron, and two brothers. Arch McDougald of Ham let and Alex McDougald of Venus, Fia. Mrs. H. D. Tally and Arch Mc Dougald will go to Portland in the near future. NEW COMMISSION TAKES OFFICE IN COUNTY (Continued from page one) called on to appropriate during each Jrear the sum of close to half a mil lion dollars of county money taken from the taxpayers. Not one of these men would fall over dead if a dele gation of citiz.ens from any section ■would appear before them and ask that their particular appropriation:? be made less instead of more, but that is the only way to lessen the expenses of the couny. Its folly to say to the commissioners to cut taxes and costs but meanwhilf: to see that Hooppole township is given some fanciful trimmings on the bridge across the creek or that Punkin Hol low school house gets a new foot ball ground with an iron fence around it to make it look attractive to the strangers who pass that way. The commissioners are going to try to cut the coat according to the cloth and it is wise to realize that if they do not accomplish the job it is the tax payer who has to buy more cloth. Making Ends Meet This new board has that old job that has always characterized public administration—^boring a two-inch hole with a one-inch auger, or pay ing a two dollar account with a one dollar bill. The only way this latter job can be done is by keeping the two dollar debt down to a dollar, and then it is easy. These men are not going to serve themselves. They will try to serve the county, and they will have a job hard enough at the best. But they will succeed much bet ter if we all stand by them as far as we know how, for it is all of us who are concerned in thieir achieve ment. No doubt the new board will be glad to hear from anybody who has any suggestions about county gov ernment, but the time to offer the suggestions is before action is taken on any particular thing, not after. Kicking about what has been done gets us no where. Discussion before it is done frequently does—something. This is the people’s county, and the commissioners are the people’s hired men, although the wages are not high. To get results stand by them. They are a square bunch of men, trying to do the best that is possible. Share the responsibility with them, for all of us together can do more than some of us alone can, with the rest chronically kicking. Nye county, Nevada has an aver age of one person to every five square miles. FOR YOUR CHRISTMAS GIFTS See my stock of Jewelry, Watches and Clocks. Splend id line to select from.
