An average auc- | the spring thaws come a showdown is scheduled between a mountain- dwelling widow and “the law.” The law—the state land board— wants the log-cabin site of 65-year- old Mrs. Le Ora Orr. Says Mrs. Orr: “After building it with my ewn hands and living in it for 30 years I won't give up my home without 1 struggle.” The land board, with a supreme court decision behind it now, has claimed for 10 years that the Orrs built their place on school land through a surveyor’s error and has sought to oust Mrs. Orr. Two eviction orders, no good after 80 days, have expired in the desk of Sheriff Willis Morris, With a third gathering dust there, the sheriff says: “The snow’s too deep now to be running around in the hills with a simple eyiction order. When the thaw comes maybe we'll get around to serving it.” State Attorney ~General Rogers thinks the sheriff sorry” for Mrs. Orr and has warned that “if he doesn’t serve it we'll take drastic action.” He added such ac- Byron eels ALASKANA, By Marie Drake, 50¢ | tion meant a citation for contempt adv. that might put the sheriff behind his swn bars M while Mrs, Orr observes that a son makes a lot of hill i [riends ve eof living on a mountain and ventures the opinion she'll be in the old home Then she tells about out a small-bore for some tim: the time she rifle and ck way a man tc whom the rd had given a lease on the land she claims. And while the land board frets ai the delay, Mrs. Orr just rock: in her chair beside the window— from where she can get a good view of all the pathways to her valley—and observes: “I'll be sitting here whenever they come—and my friends will be up on Black Mountain behind my place.” KEEPS PLANES FROM STRAYING LONDON, Feb. 9.—~The robot pilof “George” is said to be largely re- L SWOW --\¢ T WNOWED THAR WUZ GONNG BE ALl TH\S RED TAPE \'D A-TOU GOo0GLE To RUN UP A STICK -~ [HISTORIC LINE - TOEND SERVICE FEBRUARY 20 (Buses Doom Evereft lmer-i . urban Inaugurated in | ‘ May, 1910 SEATTLE, Feb. 9.—Another trans- | portation landmark will pass into " | history on February 20 when the | ast will make its run over the | Seattle-Everett Interurban line. | The service, naugurated more than twenty-eight years ago, will be | { discontinued at midnight of that | {day, the electric cars, creaky with {age, will go to the barn and work- | men will begin taking up the rails. The announcement was made by W. H. Somers. traffic manager of the North Coast Transportation Co. He gave a reason apparent to every- one familiar with the intercity transportation situation—that motor ! coaches are now carrying nearly all of the traffic Old-timers, however, will sigh reminiscently and recall highlights of the line's history. Rails Laid in 1906 The first unit was constructed by the late Fred E. Sander, pioneer | Seattle railroad builder and real eslate operator. He laid rails tourteen miles north {of Seattle to the vicinity of Hall Lake in 1906 and there he ceased, | building operations. | | Several years later, the Pacific Northwast *Traction Company, a Stone and Webster subsidiary, took lover the enterprise and extended | rails to Everett | With a joint celebration by Seattle and Fverett delegations, music of | | bands, speeches and trips over the | line in bunting-decked cars, the new service was opened in May, 1910. At that time, the only other trans- vortation between the two cities was teamer and railroad so the new | electric interurban did a thriving business. For the first few years of ils | »areer, old-timers recalled yesterday. the line ran through magnificent forests and motormen were fre- | quently bothered by deer on the track. Since then, the timber has been cut away and the territory settled into farms and suburban communi- | ties. For a number of years, the Seattle | depot was in a hotel office on Fifth Avenue, between Pike and Pine St 1t was later moved to car barns at | Sixth Avenue and Olive Way For a number of years the Seattle- Everett Interurban cars have oper- |ated out of the North Coast Trans- | | portation Company's Central Term- !
