Christ, whom she was so like in her

ever linger around the hearts
Of her friends and loved ones. To
her sons and daughters she has left
a priceless heritage. That of a life

saying unto me. blessed are the dead
which die in the Lord from hence
forth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that
they may rest from their labours;
and their works do follow them.

RECORD BREAKERS.
Faculty Committee Arranging for En-
tertainment of Visiting Athletes
From All Over Idaho.

In the annual interscholastic tract
meet to be held on the university fielC
lon May and the Moscow high schol
team is likely to figure among the mos
lively contenders for high honors. The
local team is much better balanced this
spring than it has been for sever
years, and has had the benefits of the
best available training under ''Hec'
Edmuhdson, the yarsity's famous
| coach. The entries for the big meet
| are beginning to come in and from
present indications this years contest
will be the largest gathering of ath-
letes ever seen in the state.
The Boise high school which has
carried off the last two years meets
is said to be much weakened this
spring by the loss through graduation
of Nourse, Cunningham, Gerlough and
Carley and it is expected that in the
coming meet the team from the capital
city will likely give way to some OF the
smaller schools of north Idaho
A number of interscholastic records
are likely to be shattered this year
1t is known that two likely record
breakers in the persons of Campbell
and Thompson from the Bonners Fer
ry and johnson. Wn., high schools re-
spectively, will be in the meeI Both
of these youngsters have pole vault
marks at better than II feet. The in
terscholastic record in this event is
not over 101a feet. Another likely
record breaker is Golf of the Colfax
high school who it little below college
rank in the high jump. Halbke of
NezPerce also has a good mark in this
event.
In the mile run the Grangeville high
school is expected to furnish man
