n1 Fire Alarm.
The Grangeville globe. [volume] (Grangeville, Idaho) 1907-1922, 1909-11-24

The alarm of fire Tuesday night
about 8 O. clock caused general stam-
pede for the FIRE engine. The alarm
coming from the east part, the engine
was run up the broad sidewalk, max
ing fairly easy Shedding for the laddies.
The cause of the scare came from
the igniting Of the furnace coal in the
basement of the Imperial hotel which
was extinguished before the engine
got in, hailing distance. A few min
utes later burning mattress in the
Arlington hotel caused another scare,
which soon subsided.

BY authority of law, and in harmony
with established custom, |. ]. o. David
son, Governor of the State of Wiscon-
sin, designate Friday, May seventh, as
Arbor and Bird Day. The neglect in all
parts of our country by past generations
in allowing the devastation of forests
and woodlands, has caused the leaders
of our nation to unite in movement to
conserve its great natural wealth and
resources, giving birth to what is known
as National Conservation Commission,
one of the principal aims of which is to
preserve the natural forests This move
has spread broadcast over the United
States, evidencing the fact that the ma
ton is interested Vigorous measures
to prevent the destruction of forests
and to provide practical methods for re-
forestraton are being taken up by the
government authorities.
1t is fitting that the youth of our state
be instructed in the Importance of this
movement and in the wisdom of pre-.
serving, for all time, the forests, the
water powers, and the wild creatures
that shelter themselves in the woodland
and add to the beauties of nature, while
serving useful purpose in the great
plan of the universe.
To accomplish this end, it is recon-
mended that the relation of the natural
resources to permanent civic welfare be
made plain. That the culture of trees,
shrubs, and flowers, which tend to
beautify PARKS and private grounds, and
the protection of bird life be encouraged.
Let Arbor and Bird Day be utilized by
our schools anil citizens in carrying ont
this spirit, and intoxicating in the minds
of our people and the children the use Of
these resources in developing the beauty
of their local surroundings.
In Testimony Whereof | have here.
unto set my hand and caused the Great
Seal of the State of Wisconsin to be
affixed Done at the Capitol, in the City
of Madison, this first day of March in
the year Of our Lord one thousand nine

Real Meaning Of "Cravat,"

"Cravat," or rather the French
"cravate," means simply Croatian;
Hume, the historian, for instance,
speaks of certain troops as "Cravates
and Tartars, Hussards and Cossacs. E"
But the French borrowed the word for
the new neckwear introduced among
worn by the Croatian mercenaries
whom they saw during the Thirty Years
war In English "cravat' has ranged
In meaning from a tie to comforter
and has varied also in pronunciation,
both Pope and Dryden accenting the
word upon the first syllable.

THE Democrats in the House, says
a Washington dispatch, viii make d
stiff fight for still greater reductions IN
many of the tariff schedules than nave
been made by the Ways and Means
Committee and with the changes IN the
rules and the help of the insnrgent Re'
publicans it would not be surprising II
they forced additional concessions from
the Republicans" May that be the
case, rather than, as there IL some
ground for fear, that there will be IN
the House enough Democratic deserters
to the extreme protectionists to assist IN
making the Payne bill as much OF an
abortion a. the Wilson bill was IN It's

Checks are used between banks and

sen the Inconvenience attending the ac-

A check il written order or request
addressed TO bank or company carry
ing on the business of banking by per
son who has money in their hands, dI-
recting them to pay certain sum to II
person named in the check or to his or.
der or ITO bearer. Checks are usually
made by filling out printed blank forms
furnished by the bank upon which they
are drawn. The person who makes and
signs a check is called the drawer; the
bank npon which the check is drawn il
called the drawee, and the person who
is TO be paid by the bank is called the
payee or the holder. The payee of a
check is the person named therein, but
if he endorses the check to another per
son, that person IL the holder The payce
or holder must present the check to the
bank for payment within reasonable
time or he may lose the amount of it.
For instance if a payee or holder delays
presenting the check for an unreasonable
time and during that time the bank
should fail the loss would fall upon the
payee 81 holder but If the payee or
holder promptly presents the check for
payment and it is refused and the drawer
is duly notified, then the loss resultin z
from the failure of the bank will not
fall upon the payee or holder, but upon

sonable time in such cases depends some.

is in the same town where the payee re.
ceives the check, it should be presented
for payment during the banking hours
