To accept and be a member:
Satisfaction she could feel
Her desire was to gather
Witb tbe Saints out in the west,
Where there was a breath of freedom
Was a region Of the blest.
So she journeyed to that westland'
To that region DER the sea,
To that land of peace and plenty
Where contented she could be.
Providence was kind and gracious
To this maiden of our choice;
1t took charge of all her wanders
For she listened to Its voice.
OF man she was accepted.
He was sturdy, bold and true;
He accompanied her in pleasure,
And he shared her sorrow too
In this region of the Rockies,
! Full of wants and cares and fears,
They made up their minds to settle
They became true pioneers.
Bows and girls were to them added,
Work and effort made them strong;
Sheer necessity assisted
TIE inure their lives prolong
Spanish Fork has been their city,
They have striven and builded well;
They who count the citys story.
OF their names are bound to tell.
They have served in state and council,
In the legislature too,
They are loyal to their nation,
To their families they are true.
We assemble on this birthday
To do honor to the name
OF the old folks who have struggled
And have merited their fame.
So we all join in this tribute,
Their stern virtues to eXtol,
They have lived and died and conqureo
They're redeemed from the fall
Long live all the Greer family.
Venerate that noble rame,
Strive to keep the family prestige
We shall try to do the same.
Since we last came in reunion,
One has left the little band
Leaving five to sojourn with us
In this rugged western land.
Five yet here to make us happy
, Throw flower in their way,
Make them feel that we are earnest
Put desire in their play.
Annie, Alice, Jane and Orson,
Edward, yes and all the rest;
We are feign to say ''We love you.
May your memory be blest. +"
Hail, this natal day of pleasurel
: Gratitude's in every frame;
May each person seek his station,
Habitation and a name

WHAT SOME SPOKANE PEOPLE WANT

What do you want most of all
that the New Year should bring
you?
The Press has interviewed 4
number of the leading citizens of
the city and has asked them what
they wanted most of all. OF course
in a good many instances it was not
necessary to interview the people
mentioned. The Press already
knew what they wanted. Anyway,
here is the result:
Sheriff +. Mex Pugh-A job as
good and fat as that sheriffship.
Mayor \. S Pratt-A commits,
sionership under the commission
plan.
City Clerk c. A. Fleming-To be
appointed again if he doesn't win
a commissionership.
Cal Atkinson, retiring county
clerk-A little farm up the river
Warner Cobb, county commits
sionerelect-A good, clean admin
istration of county affairs.
Fred Pugh, retiring county prose
cutor-A deputyship under Wiley.

PRATT MUST
REPORT ON
GAS

Demanding to know why the gas
company has paid no tax on the
Roger Williams franchise for near
ly four years, the city council last
night adopted a resolution offered
by Councilman Cartwright re-
questing that the mayor and the
corporation counsel make report
on this proposition.
The franchise requires that the
gas company pay the city per
cent annually on its gross earnings.
1t did pay this for awhile and then
quit. and no effort has since been
made either to collect the tax or
forfeit the franchise.
The resolution of Councilman
Cartwright is dericted to Mayor
Pratt, who is supposed to protect
the people in such matters, as the
corporation counsel is appointed by
and under the immediate orders of
the mayor.
Mayor Pratt voted to pass the
gas franchise as a councilman over
the veto of Mayor Boyd.

The old city charter provided
that no city employe, directly or
indirectly, could be interested in
or a party to any contract with the
city or sell anything to the city
Armstrong installed the desk in
the office of Young and proceeded
to collect rent at the rate of 81 per
month on desk that is probably
not worth much over $50.

53 PAY DAYS IN 1870;
DID YOU GET WISE?

incidentally, also. it will be al
most 100 years before there is
another lapse of only l3 years be-
tween years which have 53 Satur-
days, for under the ordinary course
of events every 18th year begins
and ends on Saturday, but the
fact that the year 1900, not being
divisible by 400, was not a leap
year, jumped the Saturday years
ahead one day.
So while 1910 has been mighty
good year tor people working by
the week and getting paid Satur-
day-and bad one for the bosses
who had to meet that extra pay
day. it will not be until 1928 that

How many paydays in a year.

urday? -....
Huh, that's an easy one. Fifty
twoTVFeks in year; 52 paydays
in ~, ear
It's a good guess, but you're
wrong this year.
For in this good little old year
of 1910 there were 50 Saturdays,
and consequently % paydays.
That's correct, the calendar says
so. The very first day of the
present year was Saturday, Jan
uary /, and the very last day is
today, Saturday, December 81,
Incidentally, ii has been Is years
since we had a year with 80 Sat
urdays, the last year being thus
abundantly blessed with paydays
being the year 1898. when Sntur-
day was both the first and last
day OF the year.

THREE JAIL
MATR0NS

The city council did the right
thing last night when it passed NE
ordinance. at the request of Chief
of Police Doust, granting two more
police matrons for 1911.
In the annual estimates adopted
in October, the number of matrons
had been cut to one, on the recon-
mendation of tho former chief.
Chief Doust is warm believer in
matrons, and says that it is right
and proper and in the interest of
common decency that women jail
crs should take care of women
prisoners.
