so New Members for Club.

Caldwell Tribune: An active mem
bership campaign is being conducted
by the officers and members of the
Commercial club. As a slogan, Fifty
new members by October 50 has been
adopted and every member of the or
ganization - taking an active part in

The Caldwell Commercial club is
recognized over the state as one of the
most influential commercial bodies in
the i~ntermountain country. In order
to maintain it's commanding position
and to properly handle the many i'm
portant matters brought before it daily
membership. The club is at present
in a prosperous condition and has
many advantages to offer its members.
1t has the most complete reading
room maintained by a commercial or
ganization in the west. All leading
magazines and daily newspapers are
received regularly. In addition the
social features will appeal to many.
In publici' work the club is per-
forming an important duty. Many in
quiries are received daily from peo-
pie interested in this section, for re-
liable information concerning the bust
ness opportunities and land prices in
this vicinity. The results of advertis-
inc are cumulative, the monev spent
years ago is yet bringing in results.
The thousands of dollars spent annu-
ally by the large corporations and the
commercial organizations attract at
%tention to the state as a whole. A
community to receive its just snare of
immigration and industries must have
a live organization with the delegated
power to present its ADVANTAGES in a
convincing manner In this way only
can new communities enjoy the
growth which their advantages entitle
them to.
In building a city, the hearty sup
port and the earnest assistance of
every citizen is the main considera-
ton. The commercial club of a city
centralizes the the pushing power of
the community and aecomplishes much
more than the individual efforts of
twice its membership c Guild do by
working without concentrated action.
The aCldwell Commercial club is an
open forum for the people of Cald-
well, IDEAS and suggestions for the
betterment of the city are asked for,
and no citizen can more effectively pro-
mote Caldwell's tributary territory
than by being a member and express
ing his ideas.

The Worst Christmas Present

In ali editorial in the Decem- Der Woman's Home Companion, "a lwriter says:
 The most miserable Christ
 mas present, the kind that no human being is rich enough to afford, is that which is bought to
 make a show, to exploit ones own vanity.
 When you are tempted to buy Ia 'shOw-off' present. remember
 that the recipient has some rights. One who understands will be made unhappy by that
 kind of gift. You know yourself
 that when you receive a present that represents great sacrifice on the part of the giver it makes you feel miserable, ever when the right spirit of generous frienliness is behind it.
 "The cost in money is about the poorest of measures for any kind of gift. The thoughtful ness in it, the recognition of desire for things unasked for, the affection that goes with it, counts for much more. Every Christmas each of us receives message that means more than the most expensive gift. Yet we forget that sometimes in the perplexing selection Of pres ents for others

SHIP HITS ROCKS; SINKS
CREW IS SAVED FROM STORM
 TOSSED CRAFT.
ake Vessel, Wnh Wheel Lashed and Steam Up, Sinks After Rescue
 by Life Savers.

Ssult Ste. Marie, Nov 29.-Detail- ing the narrowing experiences through which they passed when the steamer South Shore went to the bot tom of Lake Superior off Grand Ma rais. Mich, members of the crew of the boat arrived in the Soo.
 q have sailed the Great Lakes for 4O years and have never encountered such an experience as this one," de- clared Arthur King, first fireman on the South Shore. We ran into heavy seas when trying to make night landing at Grand Marais. We could not see the light there, the binding snow being too dense, and we turned out into the lake, to fight the storm for our lives.
 From that time on the experience was terrible. Early in the night Stanley Ennis of the Soo, the other fireman with me, took sick and was unable to work. It was his first trip.
 Tt wasn't long after the boat struck the seas that her seams opened and at times the water poured through like waterfall. 1 was standing iii water up to my waist at the fire hole and the deckhands were passing coal, but almost as fast as they could pile up the coal, the waves washed it overheard.
 We tossed around the lake all night We were right in the grave yard of the Great Lakes and we knew 1t. When we finally gave up the ship the wheelsman lashed her wheel. We then had 30 pounds of steam. We headed her straight for the rocks and she came in just right and went down among them before we reached shore"

HAVE A. NOVELTY IN GLOVES
Something Decidedly New That Is a
Welcome Addition to the
Fashions.

To discover novelty In gloves is
. feat worth chronicling. The newest
gloves bear-the name so familiar this
season Robespierre. These kid
gloves are given the novel touch in
the turnover cuffs which display a
lining contrasting in color to the
glove. A tan glove, for instance, will
have red or kings blue lining,
while white pique will be made
very pretty with Nile green shade
or a soft lavender tint
For very dressy wear, these turn
over cuffs may be lined with lace, just
as were the gloves Of the handles OF
Louis XVu.'s time. To complete the
velvet suit when calling or "teaing"
these new gloves are most attractive.
To stick in them. by the way. there
are dainty little glove handkerchiefs,
either embroidered or with colored
borders to match the turnover cuffs.
Only few inches square, to be sure,
yet these handkerchiefs are wonder
fully useful to touch the lips after a
cup of tea. SO soft and fine are they
that one almost forgets them when
they are tucked in the palm OF the
hand.

SECURING EGGS IN WINTER
Farmer Has Discovered That Il Is

The farmer has become wise to the
fact that it is possible to have winter
eggs, which no longer is an idle dream,
as was the belief in the days Of our.
forefathers, The farmer. too, has dis
covered that it is economy to have
commodious, comfortable winter
houses, and that for success there
must not be a single mongrel per
mitted on the place. He has even
gone a step farther, and invested in
incubators and brooders that he may
devote a part Of the winter months
to profit instead Of comparative idle
ness,

to be the best crop on the farm, That

reason that he has the proper facili-

The fanciers Of. today deserve the
credit for this change. 1t was due to
their skill that health, ruggedness and

So sharp has become competition in
this line that the breeders of differ
