M'rs. Florence Landon, who has beeirour local health officer for-the past three years, left with her daughter, Miss Florence, who is going to enter a college out in Washington, near Pullman, on Saturday.

This duty was formerly carried out by a physician, but since the death of her husband, she has carried it through in every detail with much credit to the town as well as to herself. The good people of this community hate to see this most estimable mother and her daughter leave our midst, as it will be hard to find anyone more faithful than Mrs. Landon was to us, being very just in her dealings, as well as firm for the good of public welf SKC.
