Pole Pine. Also included, would be the repair to the large Ponderosa
Pine by #2 tee. In the same discussion, Sproat, also representative

yard markers that are dead. Donations from the ladle's association
would aid in the replacement.
On return from the visitation of the Twin Falls municipal
clubhouse, architect Laidlaw presented a floor plan of the Twin Falls
