FINDS SHEEP PROFITABLE.

John r. Adkison last week sold
PA head of sheep to an Asotin firm
receiving for the same 1927, or prac-
tically $4 per head. Mr. Adkisom
bought the little band of sheep last
fall, paying $500 for the lot The
clip from them last spring netted
him above all expense $147; he kill
ed ten for mutton and has seven
left. Figuring those II sheep at 81
each, would be $6S; add this to the
1927 profit on the sheep sold and
the $147 net srom the wool sold and
we find total of s442 III one year
from. an investment of $500. Mr..
Addison insists that no rancher should
be without small flock of sheep on
his place; and from the above figures
his claim seems to be we'll sustained.

developing and organizing social cen
ters. In most cases they are assist
ed by state laws. The city of Hous-
ton, Texas, recently bonded for
half-million dollars to build five new
school houses and to equip them as
complete social centers. Lexington,
KY, raised $4,000 by popular sub
scription for a new school building
to be equipped as a sicial center. In
this building was provided a gym
asium, shower baths, reading room
and library, and an assembly hall for
lectures, entertainments and civic
clubs; outside was placed playground
apparatus, a ball field, a running
track and tennis courts
1t would take several pages to de-
scribe in full what the social center
idea consists of. Its aim in most
places where it is put into effect is
to make the school house the center
for the neighborhood civic and social
life 1t is intneded for ALL young
and old. men and women. 1t means
to provide meeting place for all
the people, a place where they can
go for the discussion of civic ques-
uons, place where they can go for
reading and study, place for recrea-
ton, entertainment and amusement.
1t means the throwing open of the
school building to all the people. 1t
means a greater use of the school
building, that it shall be open every
evening of the week for the use of
the public. These would require
we'll heated and lighted study room,
a good library and some one to take
charge of it, gymnasium, an assem-
bly, room for plays. entertainments,
lectures, moving pictures, public meet
ings. etc. AS one editor puts it, it is
"To eliminate waste in the use and
management of public property; to
enable residents of ghborhoods to
get acquainted; to furnish recreationa

ed, and correctly so, that one acre of
good timber land is worth as much in
traffic to a railroad as are 100 acres
of agricultural land Furthermore,
immense quantities of timothy hay
would be raised and shipped from the
numerous prairies situated on Craig
mountain. Lest the reader Is unac-
quainted with the topography of the
country in question, let him be in
formed that Craig mountain is only
am elevated timber table land, about
20 or 25 miles across, and offers less
obstacles to railroad building than
does the Palouse country. Had the
Transit company line been construct
ed, there would not now be the
clamor there is for tramways to reach
the Clearwater Short line in a can
yon 800 feet below, which can at
its best only serve a limited area
near the breaks of the river canyon.
On the other hand, the Idaho Transit
company's line would have served a
tenfold usefulness to the Clearwater
country as compared with the line in
operation today"

opportunities for the people; to focus
community forces for social advance
ment and to make more effective pub
lie opinion and popular government. -
1t means, too, more than just throwing
open the school building to the peo-
pie; it requires planning with a pur-
pose and yet in no town or city has
DIT proven failure thus far.
Now, when you think seriously upo
this idea, what possibility for good
do you see in it? What do you think
of trying such a thing in fIrangeville? =?
just now there is much talk of a new
school building and with small ad-
ditional expense the new building
could be planned with this purpose
in view. 1t would mean twice the
present use of the school building
and isn't it sound business sense to
get all the use out of an investment
that is possible. Public buildings
cost great deal too much money to
be used only six hours day; they
should be used twice six. 1t appears
that Grangeville would be almost an
ideal place to try such an institution
as social center organization. Be
ing rather isolated, 1t must depend
more or less upon itself for amuse-
ments and recreation. There is need
of an organized body to bring good
lectures and other means of instruc-
ton, and there is in this community
as in ever community a necessity for
the study of civic problems in order
that we may reap the fruits of demo
cracy. In brief. such an organization
would benefit the social and ethical
needs of the people to such an extent
that the whole community would
never think of returning to the old
way of everybody for himself
If this idea appeals to you, why
not talk it over with your neighbor
and why not urge the school board
to plan a building for such a pur-

THE SOCIAL CENTER MOVEMENT
The School House as the Center of
Civic and Social Life.


This is prehaps the most important
educational movement of the present
century. 1t has spread from the At
lantic to the Pacific and from Cam
ada to the Gulf, and yet it has not
received the attention of the think
ing people except in the communities
where it has been tried.
The social center movement started
doubtless as an attempt to promul-
gate more fully the spirit of demo
cracy ad to correct the social evils
that are growing up with the indus
trial and economic changes of the
times. This movement is commandin
the attention of the leading public
men of the times. Governor Hughes
said to an audience in Rochester. N.
Y, where this movement was started
and where such a great good has been
accomplished that the attention of
the whole country has been focused
on it: 81 am more interested in
what you are doing and what it
stands for than anything else i'm the
whole world, you are butressing the
foundations of democracy" Governor
Wilson said before a convention of
social center people: what | see
in this movement is a recovery of
the creative and constructive genius

GOOD WORD FOR TEN MILE
CAMP

Col. A. w. Moore, who left here
last Friday for Seattle, after a trip
into the Buffalo Hump section in an
interview with the Lewiston Tribune
says:
THE next big mining development
in the west, will center in the Ten
Mile district. No country has such
rich surface showings and such as
sured evidences of great mines. There
has been much quiet prospecting and
work done there. but the real condi-
tion cannot be hidden another sea-
son.

FIND SEA WAX IN OREGON
Substance Called Nehalem Found On
Beach-Many Tons Sent to
Market.

Nehalem wax is the name given a
somewhat mysterious product found
on the beach near the mouth OF the
Nehalem river in Oregon.
1t was observed by the early ex.
plorers of that coast. Later consider.
able deposits were found In the sand
OF the beach. In 1S46 several tons Of
this queer waxlike substance were
shipped to Hawaii, and since then
many tons of It have been sent to
northwestern markets.
Opinion is divided concerning the
nature and origin of this substance.
Some hold that It Is beeswax and
others contend that II is a mineral
substance called ozocerite. It is usual.

II has a honey.like aroma when fresh
