WHAT MAKES GOOD HOSTESS

A talent for originality Is not suf-.
ficient to make a good hostess-that
goes without saying. 1t Is not the
mountebank who wins the genuine
praise of the initiated, but the real wit
who has the gift of magnetism-that
is. Of sympathy with what is human
and lasting-and can touch the heart
OF an audience. Is it not the drama
that can move to tears that remains
on the boards the longest? And is
it not the woman who loves her kind
who keeps their affection, who draws
people to her whether she Is rich in
this worlds goods or fortune turns
its back and leaves her little resource
beyond her delightful personality?

more and more with each passing
month. All men liked Doris, told
myself, and love OF admiration was
passion with her. Why quarrel about
1t?
All during that winter Mrs Clark
son suffered with a nervous trouble
that made it necessary for her to con-
suit me often. One of the exciting
causes of her condition. shrewdly
suspected, was the fact that she and
her husband were growing steadily
apart. Perhaps he did not understand
a woman of her sensitive nature. per
haps her mercurial temperament irri-
tated him, for he was calm and un.

of her nervous condition. She was
very young and was heartily sorry
for her. She had no relative in our
large city, and was too proud to take
ordinary friends into her confidence.
Some one-possibly Clarkson himself
mentioned to my wife that this one
OF my patients was very dependent up
on me. OF course Doris spoke to me

News Snapshots
Of the Week
CASE AGAINST NAMPA
BANKERS HAS NOT
REACHED JURY

J. A. Givens AMI <. F. Lore, Of
ficials of the defunct Sank of Nampa
have been on trial thus week in the
district court This IS their second
trial. At this trial the defense put up
evidence and the trial has taken
longer time than the first trial. AS we
went to press yesterday afternoon the
case had not yet gone to the
jury.
f. K. Hayes of Emmett, retained by
the prosecution to expert the books of
the defunct Nampa banking house,
was the principal witness Monday. Mr..
Hayes was questioned closely regard
ing the results of his audit of the
books and records of the bank, and
on cross-eXamination apparantely adj
mitted that all Of the cash and credit
items appearing in the alleged false
report could be found accounted for
in various books of the Bank Of
Naunpa
The court proceedings Monday were
marked by numerous clashes between
the counsel of the defendants and the
prosecuting attorneys regarding the
admittance of certain evidence relative
to the books and records fthe bank
c. E. Lore, cashier Of the defunct
Bank of Nampa, Ltd who with J, A..
Owens, vice president of the former
Nampa banking house, occupied the
witness stand in behalf of the defense
Tuesday afternoon.
The direct examination Of Mr.. Lore
was concluded Tuesday and the cross
examination by the counsel for the
state was the principal feature of the
proceedings on Wednesday.
At the former trial of Givens and
Lore, at which the jury failed to reach
a verdict, the defense rested its case
without offering any evidence. How
ever, at this second trial the defend
ants counsel has evidenced the inten-
ton of making a stubborn contest
against the testimony of the prosecu-
ton.
Lore's testimony Tuesday consisted
chiefly of a comparison of the items
of the alleged falsifed report and the
igues of the general ledger of the
Bank of Nampa. The former cashier
was on the stand again at the opening
of court Wednesday.

c. OF I. AND ALBION NORMAL
FOOTBALL GAME

At 2:20 sharp Friday afternoon the
whistle will blow for the seventh an
nual College of Idaho VS.. Albion State
Normal game. The teams have met
annually since 1908 and not since the
first game has the College been re-
turned winner. In 1910 tie game was
played and the other times Albion has
won. This year the college hopes to
get back. For no team in this section
has the college more respect than they
have for Albion, both on the field and
afterwards. They are fighters and
gentlemen. A strange fatality has al
ways pursued the college against Al
bfon, in that never have they been able
to play the best team against them
Three times has the college played
without a captain, and other times
without some valuable player. 1t
looks this year as if every first choice
player will be able to start the game.
In that case the college will put out
team physically equal to the 1909
team and as we'll trained as the 1908
and 1911 teams. If they fight as hard
as did the 1910 team, they will prove
themselves a great team.
Practically every business house in
Caldwell has agreed to close from
to 4 and we anticipate record crowd.
It is costing $3.50 to bring Albion here,
and we need the money. Every Cald-
well player will wear a number on his
back to assist the crowd to know who
is who. John NJ Regain will referee
and the game will start at 2:20 to the
minute
As the teams start out the college
is the heavier from two to three
pounds to the PLAYER
