have passed all expectations. The
combined enrolment of registered del

were fewer Sunday Schools to be

Knapp. of Spokane, and all the gen
eral workers who attended all the
conventions pronounced the Blackfoot
Convention as SURPRISING them all
in general interest and worth.
The prominent speakers from out
Of the state were: c. A. Phipps, OF
Portland, John L. Alexander of Chi.
cago, and Mr.. and Mrs. E. G. Knapp
Of Spokane These latter two have
given four months of their time with.
out charge during the last year to the
work of the Idaho S. S. Association.
For the first time in the history Of
the state we have the Sunday School
work on its feet and really accom-
plishing something. 1t is hoped that
at the meafing of the general S. S.
Council which meets in Boise Thurs.
day evening this week, some arrange.
ments may be made whereby they
may become permanent officers OF
the Idaho S. S. Association.
1t seems altogether probable now
that the coming - months will be the
greatest year in the history of the
Sunday School work of Idaho. If
the various County Organizations real.
ize their opportunities and rally to
the support of the state officials, this
will unquestionably prove true.

THE GOSsIPER

How much unhappiness, how much
misery, woe and humiliation could be
caused the individual by the publcs-
ton Of every random bit of gossip is
perhaps better known to newspaper
men than to any others.
They appreciate fully that, at times,
feelings are hurt as it is. but the de-
mand for facts and circumstances
where an event gets beyond the or
dinaryfrequently makes the publication
Of names imperative.
And the average newspaper is more
charitable in that respect than it is
ever credited with being.
For instance, people will gossip at
card partDLs or en- a street corner
and tear to shreds a reputation or
malign a sweet character, ard do it
with as little conjunction as or
would kill a snake, for crowds and
gossipers of either sex are a cold
blooded lot, have little respect for the
truth. magnify every rumor and elab.
crate on every unsavory detail with
out the slightest investigation.
If the injured party could at times
run down bunch of these scandal
bnongers. he might at times start a
very healthy cemetery with benefit to
the community. And where he has
no recourse on the crowd, he will be-
come much perturbed at the news
paper that prints it. The gossipor in
the crowd can lie and draw on his or
her imagination and get away with it.
What appears in paper is a print
ed record. That is the difference.
It Us poor process to talk at ran
dom, or about any person.
