Twenty-Five scientific men and man

Schapp asserts that the use OF the
apparatus. a patent on which has been
applied for. Will revOlutionize many
OF the trades in which metal welding
plays an important part. Several eX-
periments. including one in which the
flame cut quickly through an inch
thick steel plate. seemed TO the men
present TO demonstrate the effective
ness of the invention.
The copper and jewelry industries

architectural iron. bridge building and
the crafts founded on the handling
OF aluminium and silver are promised
TO be greatly affected. Chemical
changes are said to be accomplished

THE RUPERT CULTURE CLUB.

The Rupert Culture club, with fear
and trembling, has decided to make
It's bow, and become acquainted with
her dignifed and elderly sisters. She
Is anxious to please, and wants to do
her share toward the building up of
this interesting club work. She Is a
wee grille yet, not three years old,
but under the guidance of such thor
oughly competent presidents as she
has had the past years, she will de-
velop rapidly into a sprightly young
lady. She has done much-so much
toward making life pleasant on these
desert claims, that each member is
ready to undergo even hardships to
uphold her.
She was honored, this desert grille,
by being asked to name the roads
on this great project of Uncle Sans,
and showed her willingness to be of
some use by Immediately finding all
the great and good names in Indian
history or fiction. She was also hon
ored, only last fall, by a visit from
our most worthy state federation
president. She blushed and twist
ed the corner of her little white
apron, at the news of the visit, but
as the time drew nearer, she grew
more confident, until when her dis
tinguished guest arrived, she met her
without the slightest embarrassment.
This sage brush grille, for the
most part, lives in turn in claim
houses, many of which are very
small. But she is always merry, and
doesn't mind the crowding in the
least. Other times she is dignified.
and lives in the few beautiful homes
which are at her disposal always.
She is a bright child, for it is seldom
that she fails in her lessons, which
are to be found in the Bay View
Course on Russia and Japan.
TO rest her from her her arduous
asks, this maid often gives delight
tul functions, which her friends en-
10y with her. l am sure if her sis
ers could get as well acquainted with
Ter, as the writer, they would not
blush to own her.

form that they will find 1t avilable
Make 1t good enough so the public
will read 1t and give it favorable con-
sideration, and then continue to work
Systematically.
This plan has proven SO satisfac-
tory in the first district, that every
club has subscribed and we hear only
| hearty approval from the entire first
district membership.
Again, the organ Is made effective
by becoming clearing house" for
the entire official board of the state
and the chairmen of committees, all
OF whom are busy women and time is
therefore Consideration. Should
any one of them have message of
import, she writes one letter to &c
noes and the entire federation gets
IL, all for the price of one stamp and
the time taken to write one letter.
Also, interest is lent to the commun-
lcat1on because each club is consid-
ering the same subject at the same
time.
Another thing to consider is the
advantage the club of a dozen mem
bers will have to give voice to the
same number of people those of
large membership reach. The small
est clubs are noted among regular
contributors to the page, and the
big Columbian club of Boise is one
OF the regular subscribers. We re-
ce1ve communications from the gen.
eral federation secretary and from
the new timid baby clubs of our own
state.
Also this Is means of more firmly
cementing the fraternal feeling of the
three districts of our state, for the
north and south are made nearby
nelghbors with the southeast, and a
friendly visit may be exchanged each
week between the three separate
families.
