This applies to the work itself; and
more especially to the everyday con-
ditions that go along with work But
above all things. let me warn you
never to let one of those little blue
devils Of encouragement get hold OF
you: they eat up ell the pleasure and
light -heartedness in q girl. When you
begin TO feel that one OF these blue
devils has you by the throat you
must run right out into the sunshine
and play around little bit until you
get rid Of him. Like malaria, they
live In dark, low places.
But why some people seem to get
ahead faster than others Is hard TO
answer. / have learned that the girls
with common sense and an even tenn
per have an immense advantage-
those who are actually inspired by
many things that would discourage
and confuse other girls. Remember
that girls who get on teach them
selves lessons; they don't have to be
taught by other people, And again.
the girls who get on are those who
in their free hours can play the hard
est, entirely forgetting their RESPONSE
bilities and worries and just going in
for plenty of fun, pure and simple. 1t

too seriously, to make a simple sttua-
ton into o. problem.
There Is no denying the fact that
to succeed in anything we must study
for it, and there is a difference be-
tween studying and working for 1t.
You may go on working In q routine
way all your life and never get be-
yond the automatic clerkship stage.
But when the idea comes to you that
you want success you have to got to
make up your mind to study for It; to
study thoroughly and hard in one par
ticular line, and at the same time
to study many other things that fol-
low this particular line. II Is won
derfuI how far these roads of study
can carry Us, and how unexpected are
their turns. You seldom can plan
ahead what you are going to succeed
in. 1t lie very much like fire-depart-
ment station: you must have your
horse and harness ready TO turn out
for work with less than a minutes
notice. When that old gentleman OPP
portunity' comes around to call you are
not given seconds time to think; il
you are out when he calls he is likely
not to come back again"

A THOUGHT FOR
THE BUSINESS GIRL.

It has always taught me that in order
to succeed in anything you have TO
know good deal about q lot of things
that don't particularly touch your
work; It II q pity to know q good
deal about one thing and nothing
about the Others" says a successful
business woman. 1T IL pretty hard to
make ourselves see just why some
girls should get ahead Of the others.
Originality and individuality have
usually had q great deal to do with
It, the girl who succeeds Is the one
who Is able to walk along and take

''It is my opinion that he con-
strdction and completion of the Pa

tinued efforts are put forth in that di-
rection.
"a great deal has been accom-
plished at Washington in the furth-
erance of the cause of irrigation for
Franklin county lands by the dele
cation sent to the capital for that
purpose. We received more encour-
agement than expected"
Pasco people are interested in the

FORMER COLFAx BOY KILLED.
Milton Harding's Motor Cycle Col
lided With Meat Wagon.

Milton Harding, born in Colfax
and a resident of this city during his
boyhood years, died in Portland

UTOPIA ROAD WILL
Open FERTILE VALLEY
AND GARDENS WILL
HAVE LIGHT AND POWER IN
STEAD OF RAGING FLOODS.

The survey for the extension of
the Utopia road has been completed
and the right of way has been Sc
cured. This extension opens a water
grade route up the North Palouse
river from Colfax to Glenwood, max
ing one of the most beautiful drive
ways in the Palouse country. Pro
tected by the sloping hills and the
steep bluffs, it winds around the
banks of the river for distance of
nearly six miles, connecting with the
Lyons road at the bridge near Glen
wood. This gives a direct outlet to
Elberton, Garfield and other points
northeast from Colfax.
Heretofore, there has been much
inconvenience to settlers in the Pa
louise Valley, as well as those on the
adjacent table lands, for want of a
direct outlet to Colfax, west, and
especially to points east, north and
southeast. To furnish this outlet
was the original design of the Utopia
road, but difficulty in securing the
right-of-way has delayed this extern
sion for several years.
But the afore mentioned settlers
will not be the only beneficiaries of
this road, as the same will be used
by the public generally and by the
people of Colfax particularly, as a
scenic driveway of unexcelled beauty.
where picnic parties may have access
to the shady groves and cooling
springs which everywhere abound
along the whole length of the road.
In the course of time, no doubt, this
road will be macadamized, as abun-
dance of material may be found at
the foot of the basaltic bluffs and in
the river bed ready to be distributed
as soon as the road is properly drain
ed and graded. Only one bridge
will be needed the entire length and
that but short one, whose cost will
be inconsiderable.
And it will not be difficult to un-
derstand the further possibilities of
this favored locality when the. great
irrigation project, now under con-
sideration, will have been carried to a
successful issue.
Power and light can be cheapIy
distributed throughout it's length
and the raging floods which occas-
ionally ravages the low, level tracts
along the stream will be a thing OF
the past. Orchards and gardens and
meadows will receive, at the proper
season, the benefits of the life-giyine
waters that once poured through the
valley in turbid and wastefuI food
on its way to the ocean.
Thus the dream of some of the
far-sighted citizens of Colfax and the
settlers of the North Palouse is in a
fair way to be realized, and the not
far distant future will see a contin-
uous line of beautiful homes from
Colfax to Glenwood, that will be the
pride of the country.

INLAND PROPOSES
UNUSUAL OFFER
COMPANY WILLING TO PAY FOR
PRIVILEGES. SUNDAY CLOSING
UP TO COUNCIL.

How anxious is the Spokane and
Inland Empire Railway company to
build up a warehouse district on the
west side of Main street between
their new depot and the Codd bridge?
From the offers made by the officials
of the company when in town Mon
day it would seem they are very
anxious.
The plan suggested is this: If the
city will permit the railway COM
pany to use the sidewalk around the
freight depot for teams and drays
while loading and unloading freight
and will permit the company to build
a sidewalk with curved depression for
gutter instead of the regulation curb,
and Of the same material as the paw
ing, On the west side of Main street
between their depot and the Codd
bridge, in return the company will
place steel beams and decking to re-
move the ugly jog in the Main street
bridge next the court house making
that side of the bridge in a straight
will construct concrete sidewalk all
the way on the east side of the street
between the two bridges. This sug-
gestion was made to the city officials
Monday for their consideration and
an official of the company, with pow
er to act, will be here next Monday
to meet with the council for the pur-
pose of closing some deal whereby
the company can have unhampered
use Of the sidewalk abutting on the
railroad property.
Temporary permission has been
given the railroad company for ten
days to allow drays to drive over the
sidewalk to the freight depot.
Rev. j. H. Bainton appeared be-
fore the council Monday evening and
asked that all show houses and pool
rooms be closed on Sundays. The pc
tltlon which he presented bore 374
names. He stated that he was not
asking for favors for the churches
but he was asking for square deal
for the II religious organizations of
the city. The petition was referred
to the police committee with instruc-
tions for report at the next meeting.
1t has been found the ordinance
intended to compel railroad COM
panies to maintain a light at every
railroad crossing in the city is un-
constitutional and cannot be en-
forced in its present form How
ever, it is believed the companies can
be compelled to maintain lights dur
ing the time of danger at crossing
and it is believed the ordinance will
be amended. AS matter of inform
alton it was stated that the Inland
company had complied with the pro-
visions of the original ordinance.
An ordinance providing for the re-
funding of bonds to the amount of
$4,000 against the city passed final
reading and was ordered published.
Payments amounting to $15,849
have been made on the assessments
for the paving and this sum was
ordered turned over to the Warren
Construction company.
The meeting next Monday night
will be called at Z o'clock on account
of the K. of P. minstrel show that
night.
