The funeral services of Thomas
Desmond, who died at the home of
his parents was held here Wednes-
day, June 2 at the Catholic church.
A large gathering of relatives
and friends attended the last solemn
rites of the church over one, whose
virtuous life has been solace to
his parents, and whose kindness
and charity had won for him the
esteem and love Of neighbors and
friends.
The deceased was a student of
Gonzaga College, Spokane, for the
past four years, During that period
he set brilliant example to his
companions of devotedness to his
religion and earnest application to
study.
Rev. Father Kelley, OF Standpoint,
celebrated the Requiem Mass, and
Rev. Father Collar, S. j., President
of Gonzaga college, Spokane, in an
eloquent sermon paid a touching
tribute of respect to the innocence
OF life, devotion to duty, and up
rightness of character which those
with whom he was associated, both
a. scholar and fellow-student, wit
messed in his daily life.
As a mark of respect and love
for their departed class-mate, the
Freshman class, OF which he was a
member, presented a beautiful
floral cross. The professors and
students alike join in offering their
prayers to Almighty God for the
repose of their departed pupil and
college companion. RIP.

MAKE PAPER OF SCRUB PINE

will serve as we'll as spruce. Ex-
periments have been carried on
largely with materials that are not
so easily exhausted as timber and
are not of much value for other
purposes.
"Cotton stalks, chapparal and ev-
en- the Kansas sunfiower have been
tried. 1t is likely that process will
be discovered for handling these
materials economically, but the re-
suits are not yet satisfactory.
"The most recent proposal comes
from the forestry bureau, which has
taken interest in the wood pulp
problem and has been testing some
of the interior varieties of timber.
The bureau says that the despised
scrub pine may be utilized with
very little change in the method Of
treatment by the pulp mills.
This discovery may bring indus
trial benefits to Washington, Idaho
and Oregon through the establish
ment of pulp and paper mills, fol
these states are plentifully supplied
with scrub pine, which has hardly
been considered in estimating theil
natural resources.

S. S. CONVENTION AT BOYER
A Nest Profitable and Pleasing Gathering Of
Sabbath School Workers Held in Stock
holm Twp. Jan. 9Th.

Deep religious feeling, enthusiasm
in Sabbath School work, is not con
fined to the towns and cities, but is
the more found in the quiet country
neiphhoods, where the whirl of clubs,
lodges, social functions do not en-
gross all the spare time of the peo
pie young and old. This we'll known
truth, had further evidence in the
convention held to promote better and
more effective methods in Sunday
School work held at Boyer last Fri
day in the M. E. church. The good
people had arranged for sessions
from ten in the morning to four in
the afternoon, with picnic dinner
ut the church. Happily the weather
had moderated 80 that with little
Inconvenience the parents and the
children could come.
The convention opened by singing
led by the pastor. Rev. Howe, q

sidered paper on helping the girls ir
the christian life. She urged that
every Sunday School have gooc

read. Others made suggestions along
the line of how a library could be
maintained in the country schools.
Rev. LaReau of Denison gave az
instructive talk on methods for teach
ing the books of the bible. He
gave certain methods of remember
ing the facts generally brought out il
supplemental work. He does not be
lieve in following the international
lessons but would take other courses
of study which will necessitate more

forth that home training was more

characters of the children along right

discussions were participated in by
