Draper Club to
Be Organized
Payette Women Interested in Nation
al Child Welfare Campaign Haze
Opportunity TO Affiliate Vita Club
The Purpose of Which is to Study
Child Life.

This week an organization which
promises TO become a leading move
ment in Payette is being launched BY
Miss V. G. Yell and Mrs Eerths
Jensen, of Seattle, who are now il
Payette and are endeayoring to in
terest the women and especially the
mothers of this city in the organiza
ton of a Draper Club which is to
be a branch of the National Moth
ers' Congress.
The two ladies have been engaged
in this work for some time and last
Saturday at Weiser organized a
club with a good membership in the
Knights of Pythias hall.
The National Mothers Congre IS
has innaugurated an American Child
welfare campaign with the purpose
of arousing the whole country 10
a sense of it's duty to childhood, b.
lieving that to surround the child
rem Of the country with loving and
wise care during the imprez sionistic
years, will mean the development of
higher type Yof citizenship in
health, morals and efficiency.
The object of the club is primari-
ly one of education. A meeting Of
the club is held every two weeks, at
which are presented series OF pro-
grams arranged by the national or
ganization, dealing with every phase
of child life. The general care Of
the child, what he should see, what
he should hear, how his various fac
ulties can be developed to the high
est points of efficiency, how any
criminal tendencies can be met and
coped with,-all these subjects are
gone into thoroughly, the papers and
addresses being prepared from auth
entic literature and supplied by the
national organization.
In case a member of the club
who is asked to take part in the pro-
gram, feels unequal to the task of
a paper for herself on
any given topic, post card sent to
the correspondence department of
the national congress will bring,
free of costs to members, vel writ
ten paper along the specified line.
The Clubs Purpose.
= The club will be more than a tea b.
er. 1t will be an active force in the
cooperating with city
the health board, juvenile
court, probation officers, associated
charities, etc., in an effort to give
the boys and girls better chance
for clean citizenship. 1t will try
to keep the growing boys and girls
from the streets where they learn
SO much that is impure, by teaching
the mothers how to provide greater
attractions at home.
Some of the other definite plans
Of the club will be to save the lives
of babies by giving the mothers a
clearer idea and knowledge of the
baby's needs, and by cooperating
with the local health officers in en-
forcing sanitation; to save children
from disease by imparting proper
knowledge to both parent and child;
to save the American home by CIV
ing to the youth true ideals of mar
rage and education in homemaking
and child nurture; and to organize
Young women for the study of do
nestle science and home-making.

vanced at the rate of about loo feet

There was a tie vote between
John Lynn and Mack Arnold at
tn election in the second ward.
each receiving SO votes. At the
drawing by lots to break the tie,
Mr.. Lynn won the place thus
giving the Citizens party eight
out of the ten aldermen. We are
all citizens and taxpayers, tax
payers and citizens and let's adopt
the good Biblical adage "behold
how pleasant it is for brethern to
dwell together in unity There
is more attractive properties in
honey than there is in vinegar and
acid so let's gettogether and work
for the good of the city, laying
aside all personal feelings for the
general good. We want to boost
the city and what is good for a
part of the citizens, if rightly ex-
ercised, is good for the entire
com munity.

Mayor-elect Geo. E. McClelland
entertained the boys of the city in
the opera house this afternoon at
moving picture show. 1t thus
gave. him an opportunity to talk
with the boys about good city
government and a clean city. 1t
is his desire to get the youths of
the city interested in what is best
for the city and to secure their CO.
operation to this end. 1t is very
opportune for the beginning of
such a work and the new mayor
is adopting a very commendable
course. 1t is his desire to have
the boys in each ward organize
clean city League, ,selec, Its officers
and method of government for the
purpose of such cooperation. He
wants to get In close and cordial
touch with them and advise
with them in reference to
their local ward surroundings. 1t
is his intention to offer premium
for the League that keeps its ward
in the most cleanly and tidy man.
ner such as keeping it free from
papers, unnecessary filth and nui-
sances 1t is probable that he will
offer premium for the best kept
block along the same lines as to
streets, alleys and the like. 1t is
also the idea to have the Leagues
cooperation in preventing the
damage of vacant property as is
seen in the way that windows areN
now broken. fences torn down and |
other damage done. 1t is his plan
when these Leagues are organized
to get close to the members and
advise freely with them so as to
get them started on the right
course. We believe that such an
in each ward as con-
by him will be produc-
tive Of great good not only for the
physical welfare of the community,
but also in instilling habits of self
among the members
for the unquestioned benefit of
their future citizenship.

This is a story located in the Srea

ity called Greenwich Village. quaint and
retired. but little known to the average
metropolitan. This locality has serveI
as quiet refuge for many tired souls
who sought to escape the wear and tea"
OF the city and would rest while from
the bufIetings of life. or who would hide
from the fate that pursues them. II IS
a sort of backwater of society, and un-

bored John Cross an I0nglish soldier

Fanny Barrett hiding from an obsesSing

are the tides that intrude and that bring

overwhelms these two, but they finally
won out TO peace and safety; and the
story of how they do this makes strong
appeal to the emotions and 10 the human
nature that is in all of us. The situation
presented is an ideally dramatic one
emin emily human and moving, and is de-

brilliance, and power. The drama never
