Have a Smile With Us.

Kooskia is being advertised far and
wide these days as the coming town
of the upper Clearwater country"
No doubt about that. We are not
throwing any double somersaults
around here about the way things are
coming in our direction, but the Koos-
kia smile worn these days is special
brand that won't come off.
For long time our town has been
in anything but a prosperous condition,
but at1no time was it down and out
---wouldn't have it that way---and now
it is a case of fall in and work and
boost for Greater Kooskia. This
town is going to grow. Aside from
the new industries to be established,
men of means and ability have acquir-
ed property in the business district and
this summer, if we are not greatly
mistaken, brick structures will take
the place of some ramshackles on
Main street. The right kind of peo-
pie will find encouragement here and
in due time there will be room for all
who desire to enter. In the mean
time let us work and boost---and give
strangers the glad hand. ---Kooskis

TOWN TAKEN
FOR CHRIST
Petersburg Ill. Paper tells of
Big Stephens-Arbuckle
Revival.

Ii will no doubt be a source of
pleasure to the many friends of Evan
gelists Stephens and Arbuckle, who
conducted such a successful meeting
in Grangeville last winter, to learn
that they are still doing effective work
in the evangelstic field. And also to
know that ]. w. Skoda, ex-operator
at this place who was converted dur
ing the Grangeville revival, is with
the evangelists and comes in for his
share of praise for efficient work.
Under the above head the Petersburg
Observer of recent date tells the story
of the great revival in progress in that
city and gives the number of CONVEX
sions at the end of two weeks at 337,
at which time the meeting was just
getting fairly under Roadway.
Billy Sunday dropped in for one
sermon while enroute from Spring
field to another appointment and was
given great Grafton. Eighty-three
persons, mostly men, the Observer
states, came forward at the close oil
the discourse and expressed de-
termination to become christians.
The paper says:
Meyer before in the history oi
Petersburg has such scene been wit
messed as that of Monday night. The
city is being stirred as never before by
the campaign for Christ, which is nov
on. Stephen and Arbuckle are prov
ing to be interchangeable workers, tru,
men of God. and are leading the host
of righteousness in this city to grea
victory. ]. w. Skoda, the all-roun'
man at the tabernacle, is indispensable
and greatly beloved by all. "

more in money than any other school

Friday night all Clearwater and
some others assembled in Odd Eel

eight months term of public school.
Eight pupils composed the class gradu-
ating in the eighth grade, FIVE ladies
and three gentlemen. A long and
varied program was admirably carried
out, and the scholarship of the grad
yates was pronounced by County
Superintendent Granville to be re-
markedly high. The brass band added
much to the enjoyment, as did flow
ers from Lewiston, Idaho, and Salem,
Oregon, also guests from Grange
vile, Sites and Tahoe. The teach
ers and trustees have reason to be
proud of the product of their faithful
labor, and have nothing to fear il

their fruits we shall know them. .
