Saturday, April 26th Will be ret
letter day for Odd Fellows in Can
yon County as the local lodges will
on this date gather in Payette to fit
tingly observe the ninety-fourth an
niversary of the founding of the or
der. Another event which also at
tracts considerable notice on these
anniversary dates is the bestowins
of Veteran Jewels upon those who
have been members of the order fol
twenty-five years and this year sew
en- lodges have members entitled to
this distinction.
The principal speaker of the day
will be Judge ]. F. Ailshie, Deputy
Grand Master of this Jurisdiction.
| Special trains will bring the lodge
members from over the country. One
from Nampa will bring the members
of nine lodges from that end o. the
county while one from Emmett will
bring in the four remaining lodges
and the committee on preparation is
arranging to entertain over five
hundred Odd Fellows. Every possi-
BILE arrangement has been made for

Odd Fellowship.
The Order of Odd Fellows has
been in existence but comparative
ly few years, not to exceed two
hundred at the most. The first re-
corded evidence there IS of its ex-
istence dates back to the miadle O.
the eighteenth century, although ira
dition carries it back to even a more
ancient period.
England is credited with being
the birthplace of Odd Fellowism,
which was organized among a body
of mechanics and laboring men, its
object being that Of social enjoy
ment, the aiding of its unemployed
members in securing work as well
as supplying of financial aid to its
members when necessity demanded.
The institution proved to be such
a success and so popular, that new
societies were organized and the
movement spread most rapidly.
The American branch of Odd Eel
lowism was established in Baltimore,
Maryland, April 26th, 1919, by a
group of five English Odd Fellows
with Thomas Wildey at the head.
During the ninety-three years Of
its existence the Odd Fellow Lodge
has gained SO rapidly in popularity
and esteem of the general public,
that its membership now tota's the
world over 100000.
There is not doubt but what
there must be something true, noble,
and good in an institution that take3
such hold upon popular feeling in
this day and age of the world as to
cause such an increase in such a
comparatively short length of time.
1t has passed it's infancy and now
enjoys the full vigor of energetic
manhood. 1t continues as from the
first, to perform faithfully, its sac
red mission. ITO relieve the dis
tressed, bury the dead, comfort the
widow, and educate and care for tho
orphan"
The Rebekah Degree or Woman's
Auxiliary, was established in 1851,
and have since given their ass stance
in the warfare against poverty, vice |
and the innumerable woes incident
10 life.
The results attained by the Order |
Of Odd Fellows are such, as to riv-
al any and every human agency |
devised for offering relief for suf-
'ering humanity.

Finds Indian Relics on Ranch.
Monday while doing some leveling
on his ranch north of the city John
Rogue with a fresno brought to light
a number of relics of the days when
the Indian held full sway in the
Snake River Valley During the
course of his work he scraped into a
hole and brought to view several
stone arrow heads. Investigating
further he unearthed from the ground
just one hundred and fifty-five ar
row heads. 1t is nothing unusual
for relics of the savage days to be
discovered in this valley but this is
perhaps the largest find that has
yet been made
Moves Office Rooms.
At the request of the executive
committee Secretary Harader, of the
Payette Commercial Club is this
week moving his office fixtures into
the Commercial Club quarters in the
new City Hall. Just as fast as 1t
can be arranged for permanent ex-
hibit of the products of this Sec
ton will be maintained in the Com
mercial Club rooms. The secretary |
already has a fine exhibit of pre-
served fruits in jars and will devote
time the coming summer
and fall to gathering grains. grasses
and fruits that the permanent ex-
hibit will be one well worth the

ton
Must Ask for Exemption.
One feature of the new revenue
law not generally understood is the
matter of the exemption of house
mold goods. Under the old law, all
household goods and wearing apparel
were exempt from taxation. The |
new law exempts such property only |
to the amount of s400 and not then
unless the owner of such property
claims the exemption in writing and
unless the board of county commits
sioners allows it. Under the law of
IDAHO as it has stood for many
years the assessor allows all exem-
ions except the exemption allowed
o orphans, honorably discharged SOL
iiers and sailors and widows. Now
however the assessor has nothing to
10 with it, except to furnish the
property owner with the necessary
flank, on which the claim for ex-
,mption may be made. The assessor
must take every bit of property. The
complete list signed by the tax pay
II must be turned in. Then the
'wner may make his claim on the h
,roDer blank for exemption and the .
anne may or may not be allowed by {
he board OF county commissioners.

At meeting of the Cordovs Fire
Department held on Monday night
there was much interest evidenced in
the reading of a number of letters
that had to do with an invitation
upon the part of the department for
contribution from the fire insur-
ance companies to the firemen's fund.
The information was impaired that
the compliance of the request was
not consistent with the policy of the
companies. As consequence the
volunteer association which is ready
and willing at all hours to protect
the interests of the companies feel
that they have received scant cour-
tesy and but little encouragement
from the interests most benefited by
the vigilance and willingness of the
ifiremen. contribution of SIS was
made, however, by a local agent for
several companies.
