Commissioners Adjourned

The County Commissioners adjourned
Wednesday, after busy session. The
new commissioner is onto the ropes now
and the work viii run smoothly during
the rest of the term. This office is no
easy one to fill. Cases come up where
the members must decide concerning the
claims of two persons or factionss. Which
ever way they decide
At the beginning of the last term diff
ficult matter came before them in the form
Of the organization district. There was
much opposition to the proposed organ
zation. The commissioners were all new,
which made the matter doubly hard.
They decided in favor of the proposed
district. Enemies were made, but for all
that, the personnel Of the Board was not
changed great deal.
Fortunately no difficult matters came
up at the last meeting, 5and only the rou-
tine had to be gone through.

Jordan Valley Incorporates

At last Jordan Valley has been admit
ted to 'cityzenship." The next thing will
be to elect mayor and aldermen, form
ulate charter, pave the streets, and lay
cement sidewalks.
Jordan Valley is the center of large
surrounding territory. Sheep and cattle
men make that their base of supplies.
The population at present is not large,
but it will increase.
Below is the account of the incorpora-
ton, taken from the Ontario Optimist:
At the meeting of the comfy court
last week the town of Jordan Valley was
granted permission to incorporate, and
the boundaries for the corporation were
set by the court on Saturday morning.
This adds another to the rapidly growing
list of Malheur county progressive towns,
and Jordan will now have the pleasure of
town elections, and all the fun and fuss
and feathers that go with being full
fedged town. The county is glad to see
Jordan coming into her own, and we all
offer congratulations to the Jordan Greek
metropolis.

DeLamar SINGERS Come Up

Wednesday evening the Carol Singers
came up from DeLamar, and entertained
a large and appreciative audience at the
Idaho hotel. The singers were in the
parlor, but for all that, their rich voices
were heard throughout the entire build
ing. After bit the doors between the
parlor and the Office were opened, and
the voices Of the visitors, in song and
laughter came to those listening.
There were about seventeen voices in
all-four women and thirteen men; and
when they sang, their voices all ming
ling harmoniously in the chorus, there
was sweet, plaintive melody to it that
caused one to wish them to sing continu-
ously.
Though the visit was surprise, good
audience gathered to hear them sing, for
it certainly was treat. And all who
heard them hope they will come again.

MEDICAL INSPEC-
TION FOR SCHOOLS
Inspection Recon-
mended For Silver
City Schools

The old adage, "An ounce of preven-
ton is worth pound Of cure, never
had a more fitting application than that
afforded by the introduction OF medical
inspection of school children. Every
one will agree that the care of the health
is one of the most important duties of
mortal beings. Many person has been
doomed to life-long suffering and disap-
pointment because of some inattention
to growing physical defect, which only
a little care might have checked.
The Importance of looking after the
health of sheep is SO urgent that inspect
ors for these dumb creatures are provid-
ed by law; yet no public money has been
appropriated in this state, sosfar as we
know, for the inspection of human be-
ings, except in cases OF actual disorder.
In some of the city schools the Inedi-
cal inspector is considered as essential
as the janitor teacher himself. 1t is be-
ing more and more urgently felt that
the systematic attention to the physical
part of ones being is as legitimate
part of the work Of the public schools as
the training of the mind. Often children
seem to be dull when in fact their appar-
ent dullness is due to defective vision,
hearing, or some other abnormal condi-
ton. DIR. Gulick, President of the School
Association of New York, has
that two decayed teeth in the
mouth of a child may retard him six
months in his studies. Decay Of teeth
has been found to be germ dis
ease and one medical authority Of New
York states that it should receive the
same attention from boards of health as
scarlet fever, diphtheria, and tubercu-
losis. New York inspectors report that
ninety per cent of the children need
dentist. Dental decay not only inter
feres with mastication and digestion OF
food and leads to ill-nourishment, but
produces in the mouth condition favor
able to the growth Of other disease germs,
such as those OF diptheria and scarlet
fever.
While there is no appropriation Of
money for any of the schools of Idaho
for medical inspection some of the schools
of the state have made start in the
matter by enlisting the cooperation of
the local physicians. In Idaho Falls, for
example, the local physicians have gen
erously donated their services to this
cause and the school authorities are high
ly pleased with the results Of their assist
ance.
DR.. Schuyler and DR.. Heer have ex-
pressed their commentator of medical
inspection for schools and have gener-
erously offered their services to the Silver
City school in this modern school move
ment. There will be no fee attached to
to this examination and while it can not
be made compulsory, yet it is to be hoped
that all parents will be so thoroughly
convinced of its value and Importance
that they will give it their hearty sane
ton and support.

be decided TO extend the outing to
the Pacific coast IL will be stretched

will not get back to Beverly or Wash

According to the plan so far drawn
up at the White House, the president
will visit most OF the states In the
middle West, north of and Including
Missouri, and will make incursions
into practically all OF the states which
have progressive Congressional dele
cations. The president SO far has
given almost no consideration to
speechmaking on this trip, but It has

doubt responsible for his many eccen-

the public were q set Of ignoramuses
who had no right to any opinion what
ever.
Especially well known is his quar-
rel with John Ruskin, who In his
"Ars Clavigera" had heaped scorn on
one Of Whistler's "Nocturnes" I'm the

heard much Of cockney impudence be-
fore now, but never expected to hear
a coxcomb ask 200 guineas for fiinging

The artist promptly sued for damages,
and in the celebrated trial which fol
lowed he was awarded one farthing,
which coin he triumphantly wore as a
watch charm ever afterward-
In his art work. as in his own per

as for his general behavior II was

When Lobster. We're Common.

The lobster was not always the arts

most costly of delicacies. A man who
used to live In Maine, but now lives In
Ohio has this Renaissance. according

"0ne day here In Cleveland took n
friend out TO luncheon. and suddenly
the old appetite for lobster came back
to both Of us, as we were both born
on the Maine coast We had two full
portions, and the bill was 81. And yet
as a boy I've seen my father standing
on the wharf. bargaining with a fish
erman for his lobster catch OF the day.
and often. for 81 I've seen the lobster
fisherman turn over to my father the
entire catch. and the whole boatload-
$50 or 800 big. black Holsters. perhaps
would be dumped on the landing and
taken back on our old farm as feed
for the pigs.
