BOiSe's Boast

One of the institutions of which
Boise City, Idaho boasts and consid-
ers one of the greatest of its attrac-
tions to the visiting public is its great
natatorium. George Anderson who
visited the city Saturday was most
enthusiastic over their great bathing
resort and said that without it Boise
would not have half the attraction
for him. But because of this great
swimming and bathing resort that
city is known throughout the entire
country.
II is fed by two great artesian
wells. 400 and $50 feet deep. They
furnish a supply of water totaling a
million gallons a day and of tenn
perature of 170 degrees. There is
cement diving plunge of 1872 feet
long by 60 feet in width, and of var
ious depths to accommodate all. The
building in which this great nata-
torium is located is after a Moorish
design and is fitted Handsomely
throughout. Every variety of bath
including Turkish, tub and steam, can
be had. 1t is fitted with spacious
and handsomely fitted drawing rooms.
smoking and reading rooms, billiard
hall, dining hall, where banquets can
be served and music and dancing
hall overlooking the great plunge
Some of our stim-backed citizens
have thought the talk The Sentinel
has been making from time to time
on the necessity of providing this
city with a natatorium on the plan
of the one at Boise or on some less
extensive plan, was mere foolish talk,
and yet there is the capital city of a
sovereign state, an inland city, the
same as Grand Junction, where thou
sands of dollars have been expended
to give that city a resort. No city
needs a swimming pool more than
Grand Junction. Had we here the
springs and the splendid resort that
Glenwood Springs has, this city would
be one OF $4,000 inhabitants in a
very few years. We need no start
out with such an expensive PROPOSE
ton as did Boise City, but one that
would be in comport with our popu-
lation and our Importance as the
chief commercial city of western Col
orado.

First Baptist Church.

At the First Baptist church ia this
city Sunday morning at at II O'Clock
DIR. George Il. Butler preached be-
fore a large congregation his second
anniversary sermon as pastor OF the
church. The subject of the splen.
did discourse was "Organized Chris.
tianity." The minister chose for
his text the story of the friendship Of
David aud Jonathan whose souls
were so knit together that a fathers
sword could not cut the bonds of
faith and love" Unyielding faith
aud undying love were declared 10
be the basis Of all institutions, the
church, the home and the govern
ment, the well spring of patriotism
and the foundation Of the kingdom
OF God.
Following the sermon DR.. Butler
reviewed the church history of the
past two years, the principal feat
ures OF which have been lately re-
viewed by the Eagle, and include
the establishment OF the Texas Wo-
uiau tbiithcs Aut sum VI f<DsOOO

furnished at cost Of s2S. 900, and
i25 members added, making n total
membership OF $40.
DR.. Butler took occasion to thank
the church and the community for
the hearty sympathy and support
accorded him In his work here, aud
was especially gratifled by the man
fest qulckening OF the spiritual life
OF the people and the growing chris
tian unity OF the community.
At the conclusion OF the sermon
DIR. Butler marshaled his forces tor
still greater things In the future and
set the mark for five years hence at
1000 members In the church, the
sending OF missionaries to the for
eign field aud 300 girls in attendance
at the Texas Woman's College.

Great Writers Not Correct writers.
There Is not n single great author In
our literature In whose works numer-
Gus errors have not been pointed out
or thought to be pointed out. They are
charged with violating rules involving
the purity II not the permanence OF the
language. A somewhat depressing In.
ference follows from the situation thus
revealed. The ability TO write English
correctly does not belong TO the great
masters OF our speech. II is limited TO
the obscure men who have devoted
themselves 10 the task Of showing how
far these Wanted writers have fallen
short Of the ideas Of linguistic propri-
ETY. entertained by their unrecognlzed
betters. As result OF these critical
crusades there Is no escape from the
dismal conclusion that the correct use
OF the language IL not TO be found In
