PRAISES THE CITY SCHOOLS,
Prof. Hulme Speaks in Warm Terms of
Work of Emmett Schools.

Professor Edward M. Hume, of
the Department of History of the
State University, was in town on
Monday for the purpose of looking
over the work of the High school.
Professor Hulme spoke in warm
terms of the work of the Emmett
school. He said: This is the sec
ond year that | have come to En-
nett. Both the town and the school
have grown. The school is one of
the neatest and most attractive that
| visit. There is a decided atmos-
phere of refinement about it. Mr..
Barry and Miss Oliver are both
genuinely interested in their work.
/ hope their plans for four-year
course will be carried out. like
the spirit of the school as far as |
have come to know it. | hope the
citizens of Emmett will do all they
can to advance the interests OF the
school.
The three years. work done in the
Emmett High school is given credit
at the University for entrance. Next
year, when another year has been
added, graduates of the school will
be admitted to the University in
full standing.

c. & N. IS COMING
The Payette Valley Selected
for Route.

Emmett will be one of the impor-
tant stations on the Chicago q North
western through line to the coast:
1t is so stated in the papers filed
with the secretary of state at BOISE,
it is on the airline which is being
sought for above everything else by
this company, and is on the only
water grade route available from
the summit of the mountains to the
Snake river valley.
The Northwestern is rapidly ap-
preaching the Idaho line from Wyo-
ming, and will probably enter st.
Anthony this year. From st. Anthony
the route bears directly west straight
as the crow flies to the head OF the
South fork of the Payette river in
the Sawtooth range, follows the
river on a water grade through
Horseshoe Bend and down the valley
to Vale, Ore, whereit bears slightly
southwark on its route to the coast.
1t will pass through a rich timber,
mining, stock raising and farming
section, and will be the means OF
opening up to settlement and devel-
opment a vast region of almost un-
known country. 1t will make En-
NETT the most important station
west of the range and will open.
profitable market for the products
of this section. ~ ns,. ~,

BILDERDACk IS MAYOR
New-Elected City Officer.
Sworn In.

The reins of the city government
were turned over to the new board
of trustees Monday afternoon. The
oath of Office was administered by
Retiring Chairman E. K. Hayes in
due and legal form.
Immediately after being vested
with office. the new board organized
by electing C. P. Bilderback, chair
man; V. T. Craig, clerk, and E. c..
Rundstrom, treasurer. A meeting
is called for next Monday night to
outline future work.
The new board is good one, and
the city will be in good hands dur
ing the next two years, The selec-
tion of C. P. Rilderback as chair
man of the board is especially for
tunate. He has had large expert
ence in municipal affairs both here
and at other cities and is a shrewd,
capable and conservative business
man.
The old board turns the city over
to their successors not only free
from debt, but with a surplus of
close to $2300in the treasury. Under
their management the city has pros
pered, its limits have been largely
extended and a more orderly and
well-behaved town cannot be found
in the state, and because of these
facts the retiring officers are to be
commended.

Pennington shrugged his shoulders

did not care for athletics. he had no

been time when he dreamed dreams.
But accomplishments went with trades

Under other circumstances Penning-
tons gaze would have swept away in
differently, but here 1t was the side

street was the less tedious. 1t was at
least moving bore.
The first impression that came clear
