PORTIA NEWS.

The Portia Club meet on Monday
afternoon was we'll attended and
one noticeable thing was that no
new names were presented for men,
bership this being the only meeting
in five months past with no new
names. 1t looks like the club is
resting on its laurels but the depth
of the snow is perhaps the real rea-
son. The special committee appoint
ed at former meeting, to buy ma
terial and cut four dozen little dress
es for the Children's Home at Boise,
reported fifty cut and all but four
teen made which were brought to
the club and given out. Every COM
mittee so far has made good and
the last appointed has been eclipsed
by none. The dresses are to be
completed and taken to Mrs. Cough
anour's by Friday afternoon. The
money to- pay for the goods is to be
raised by voluntary contributions
from club members and othe-s that
desire to help. Pay>to Mrs. Cough
amour or Mrs Scritchfield. The
amount to be raised is $16.74. Mem
ters who have not sent out their
postals are urged to get busy, Re
turns are beginning to come in from
postals already sent.
The Historical Committee was
ready with a very interesting pro-
gram. The first was a trio, annie
Laurie" by three High School girls
the Misses lone and Pauline Ainey
and Miss Ruby Landon. This was
heartily encored by the club but
the girls hied away but we hope they
will come again. Mrs. Moot had
splendid paper on the Great North
west and especially Idaho, also the
State seal and what it represents.
Mrs. Redington followed by memories
of early schoolhouses and teachers
and told C the growth of our pres
ent High School building. Also the
first churches and preachers besid=
es a pen picture of Payette when
T. was called Boomerang. Mrs. Erwin
was unable to be present as well
as several others who could have
told many more interesting things
of early times. However the COM
mittee was appointed to choose 9th
ers or enlarge the committee and
to write a complete history of early
times in Payette and vicinity for
miles around, and the club will un-
dertake to edit and preserve it for
the future.
The next meeting will be Feb. Il,
Patriotic Day and the club asks
every business house, home and
school to unfurI the stars and strip
es, on this, the birthday Of the man
who so much wanted the flag pre-
served.

Snake River Valley Poultry Shcw
held in Ontario lsat week and from
every standpoint the sirow was a
success. A large number OF the
birds shown we're from the Payette
Valley and the number of prizes won
by the Idaho fanciers is evidence
that there is great future in tbs
valley for the poultry business.
T. II. McComsey was there with
his Rhode Island Reds and Part
ridge Wyandottes having ten birds
entered in each class. That they
were classy and in the show is evil
ienccd by his winnings. Sweepstakes

Wrestling Match Good One.

NTESllD0 ndNCH oSO0 NhNs
The wrestling match between BIZ
lie Burke and Fred Chr.stensne on
Monday evening was one Of the best
bouts ever pulled off in Payette and
greatly enjoyed by fair sized crowd
The main event was preceesed by
a preliminary between young Gorlon
and Peterson, two local lads who
wrestled for twenty minutes TO a
draw. At four minutes to nine
o'clock Burke and Christensen met
to contest for supremacy. Burke
had given the local man a handicap
by agreeing to throw him two times
inside Of an hour, winner Of the
match to take all the gate receipts.
For just one hour the men struggled
over the mat Burke trying his best
to throw Christensen and Chr'sfen-
sen endeavoring to prevent him.
Many times Burke had Christensen
where a large number of the fans
surely thought he would put him
down but the wiry lad had always
succeeded in getting loose and away
to safety. 1t was as fine an exhibi-
ton as one would care to see and
the fans were well pleased. After
the match Christensen expressed a
desire to meet the ST. Louis wonder
in an even up match and the talk
is that such an event will be ar
ranged in the next two weeks. f.
Arnould of the Arnould Auto Com
pany acted as referee.

Basket Ball Game.

Fei&@s- the Mountain Home girls
were taken into camp by the hurley
bunch of apple packers from Payette.
At first Payette was lost on the big
floor of the unfamiliar gym. After
their sights were adjusted there was
nothing to it for the Mountain Home
team was outgained, outpassed and
outshot. The whole team for Pay
ette was a starry constellation but
shining above them and anyone else
on the floor was the work of Capt.
Bowman. The final score pretty
fairly represents the strength of the
two teams. 1t was 15 to in favor
of Payette. The girls, who made the
trim. we're Helen Driscoll, Mary Noble
Cant. Grace Bowman. Frederick jim
merson. May Genoways, Margaret
Roney and Jessie Burns.
The extra large gymnasium put a
l,ibosh on the boys team for time.
They soon woke up but not soon
enough to cut down the long lead
secured by the enemy. The battle
was hotly contested although. Jack
o,Neill made goal after goal. Indeed
he made twenty of Payette's p
scores. The final score was p to
"a in favor Of Mountain Home. The
boys that made the trip were Jack,
o'Neil. Rodney Shake, Capt. Shafer,
Jonas Brown, Earl Dibble and Nor
man Holden. Mr.. Hargroye and Mrs.
o'Neil accompanied the teams.
