THE CALDWELL TRIBUNE, F
The Upstreamers Boys club of the
Presbyterian church has organized
ball team.
There was a decided deep sea"
swing to the cars to Nampa Sunday

and soul-stricken parents were bereft
of their darlings within forty hours

Rare flowers of numerous varieties
decorated hundreds of graves this
year and for profusion and beauty
never before has our hallowed SPOT
been half so hower-burdened and fra.
