HOW BEAR LAKE
IMPRESSED THEM
lGontlnned from frst pagel

our paper with facts without having
told all of the story. Bear lake must
be seen to be fully appreciated and
no pen picture can place its beauties
before the reader as they really exist.
The one regrettable feature is the alb
senee of a railroad to the lake the
one thing that would make it famous
as a resort.
Rigby Star: The meeting of the
Eastern Idaho Press club, held at
Montpelier, Monday of the present
week, proved the most enjoyable out
ing the club has yet held. :.
The magnificent Bear Lake valley
and Bear Lake the beautiful, are de-
serving of all the praise that can be
given, while the people one meets
with on the trip are the most hospit-
able to be found anywhere. The ev-
cry want, and more, of the press club
was met with in a manner that showed
the same was being rendered with
heartiness that was of the genuine
order, and caused all to feel proud
that their lot had been east in state
neopled by such hospitable citizen
ship. The trip will live in the mem
ory Of all who made ii as one of the
most enjoyable ever participated in.
Pocatello Tribune: Bear lake is
well named "the beautiful, Seven
ty-tive miles long and ten miles wide,
skirted by verdant meadows and fields
on one side and guarded by a line of
sweeping hills on the other, it con-
stitutes one of the most beautiful
spots in the entire west. If Bear lake
had railroad its fame would be
worldwide.

and il is, especially at this time
of lie year, when everything is
glorious and beautiful. It is need
less to say that The visiting ladies
an gentlemen were well cared for.
Excellent Accommodations were pro-
vided at the Burgoyne hous Que
of the finest hostelries in Idaho.
The evening was spent IN the may
whirl of the waltz at the pavlli IN, a
building a hundred feet long aud
SIXTY feet wide, with a b tdseye
maple floor, fl ely polished aud an
orchestra that simply sent you crazy
to get on the floor before yon took
your wraps off. We doubt if there
is better dancing pavilion in the
state, and we include the Natator-
ium at Boise when we say this.

The weather man stood in with the
people of Bear Lake county and gave
them for their three days entertain
ment of the members of the Eastern
Idaho Press Club climatic conditions
that were ideal. The newspaper men
left Montpelier Tuesday morning de-
claring that there was no better place
in all of Idaho or the west for a thor
oughly enjoyable outing.
The attendance at this meeting of
the club was one of the most repre-
sentative in the history of the club,
and every member present concurred
in the expression that they had been
accorded a royal welcome and good
time.
The greater part of the member
ship arrived on No. Saturday af-
ternoon. Through the courtesy of the
Pavilion management they were the
guests at the Saturday night dance.

Ashton Enterprise: Sunday morn
ing August 10Th, at $50 a. M, the
party left Montpelier for Paris where
they arrived at about IL. At Paris
the citizens Of that town had arranged
a program for them that has never
been equalled in the valley. Upon
arriving they were taken through the
Fielding Academy at that place which
stands on a hill and commands an
excellent view of the whole Bear Lake
valley. This valley was settled nearly
fifty years ago and has become one
of the most beautiful and picturesque
spots that can be imagined. Through
the center of the valley runs Bear
river and in the south end of the val
ley lies beautiful Bear Lake with its
excellent boating, bathing and fish
ing, such as can be surpassed nowhere
in our state. The soil is very produc-
tive and in the bottoms grow enor-
nous crops Of hay, fruit and berries
and also vegetables of all kinds. On
the higher lands and even on the foot
hills stretches out hundreds of acres
of grain fields, some Of these are
raised without irrigation while others
are irrigated.

ing was omitted that could make
the trip pleasurable and the splendid
hospitality and good Will of the
citizens of Bear Lake valley will
always be remembered by those
present at this delightful affair.
The thrift of the people was every
where apparent and the subject of
constant remark. The splendid
dance hall at M ,ntpelier. the mag
nifcent academy and tabernacle at
Paris, and the luxuriant farms
should be pride to any community.

London, Nov. 2i--speaking at the Leeds Missionary Exhibition Sir Robert Hart head of the Chinese Imperial Customs. said the prominent feature of today was that China was cutting adrift from the educational restrictions of the past, and was welcoming and adopting all that the West had to offer and teach. The sympathy that was shown in this country by Eton and oxford, fin Amer lea by Chicago, and by the German Empire. would doubt tless produce good results. The secular development would, he believed support. rather than harm, the progress of Christian education, Christianity would be given fair play by the new era. for the Chinese were essentially tolerant. That. however, referred rather to faith than to con- duct. The Chiuess Government, for in. stance, resented missionary interfer- ence with matters Commercial, and if that point were neglected they might find the "open door'' shut in their face and incaiuculable harm done.

 There are three undertakers' signs in different parts of the city which have called forth both humorous comment and vigorous protest. The first is of doubtful significance, the second brings a natural fear of death to the reader while the last speaksN of the cere- mony attendant at death in the light Of a formal farce. The first sign is to be seen in the northern part of the clty, and reads: "A Step in the Right Direction" One is at a loss to know whether this refers to death or the course of the surviving relatives.

 The future farmer will subirrigate his land, and defy drought as well as floods. He will become a scientific forester and every farm will produce wood and lumber as well as wheat and apples. A single acre will produce what ten acres yield now. Women will work out of doors as heartily as men; in fact. they will be the horticul- turists and the truck gardeners. There will be closer relation between the pro- ducer and the consumer, ignoring horde of middlernen who freuuently waste more than is destroyed by ig- norant help and insect foes combined Under the alliance with the schopl the farm will be valued not only for its gross weight of products, but for It's poems and its education.
