MUST SELL MORE SEALS,

Only few days remain in which
to help eradicate tuberculosis in our
community by buying Red Cross
Christmas Seals The seals have
been on sale since Thanksgiving Day
and according to reports from the
Minnesota Public Health association,
have met with gratifying success,
but the health workers depend on
these last few days to bring up the
aggregate amount upon which must
depend the raising of the health
standard in Minnesota during the
coming year. ~:' 49,
For the past six weeks "only so
many days to Christmas was our
slogan OF more Importance than
any Christmas shopping is this pur-
chase of Red Cross Seals. There are
few men, women or children who can
not buy a few seals before the sale
closes New Years Day.
The state health association ex-
poets that at least $4,000 will be
raised from the seals, but this could
easily be doubled if all our citizens
would realize their responsibility this
week and make one more effort to
furnish ammunition for this war
against disease.
We want to make our local per
capita seal sale away ahead of what
it was year ago, and the way to in
sure our doing so, is to buy every
seal that has been allotted to our
local campaign manager, Mrs. C. M.
Jacobson. We have only until New
Years Day to show how public spir-
tied we are. Seals look just as we'll
on New Years greetings and New
Years mail and packages as they do
on Christmas gifts. Surely no holi-
day wish could be more appropriate
than wish for health, embodied in
the Red Cross Christmas Seal.

Bartlett Sinclair In Town.

BARTLETT Sinclair formerly of Rath-
drum, but now of Bonners Ferry, was
in town last week and this week.
Mr.. Sinclair expects TO have his fam
lily with him at Bonner's Ferry by
August.
Mr.. Sinclair in the course OF con-
versation said: "If it we're not for
the big saw mill at Bonner's Ferry
that town like all other north Idaho
towns would be very dull. There is
40 building going on at Bonner's
Ferry just now although this summer
a $4,000 school addition will be
started. At Copeland, a settlement
II miles north of Bonner's Ferry,
school house to cost about SIS, 600 is
about to be built. 1t is generally be-
lieved the Kootenai valley will be
soon reclaimed and that would add
over so, 900 acres of rich agricultural
land to the Bonner's Ferry district.
"Bonner's Ferry has nothing like
the townsite Rathdrum has. Much
of the business district up there has
practically been made by costly 1llliug
TO-. ] always thought Rathdrum was
one of the most beautiful locations
ever knew. Its nearness To the lakes
aud mountains makes the scenery
ideal and rs place OF residence quite
unsurpassed. With the general re-
viyal of business Rathdrum, no
doubt, will take Its place amongst
the most progressive of the towns OF
the northwest, People must be
patient, The city park is the pref
tiest little tract of land 10 north
Idaho. We have nothing to approach
1t near Bonner's Ferry. 1t ought 10
be more fully appreciated.
"Rathdrum leads US in the matter
of public library. A movement is
on foot, however, at Bon ner's Ferry
to establish one. 1t is a splendid
town institution and the council
deserves credit for helping It on. The
ladies back of the park and library
are real benefactorS. | have never
seen a more public spirited or benevo'
lent body of women than our Rath-
drum women. Were every town
blessed 10 the same way 1t would be
a fne thing for the state"
Mr.. Sinclair will leave in day OF
two for bis new home.

County Debt
Figures Given Taxpayers at Coeur d.
Alene Recently.

which must be protected this year to
the extent Of about $l60, 900.
Mr.. Stonestreet said that the pur-
pose of the association Is not to crit
icise the present county commission
ers. He declared that business gen.
orally In Occur d'Alene is on the
downgrade; that the object of the
association is to have the officials and
the taxpayers cooperating to remedy
the unfavorable conditions; that the
officials should as far as possible cut
down expenses as is done in private
business 10 order to meet prevailing
conditions.
Commissioner Waggoner said the
association was a good thing, and
that he will be glad to help In what
ever way he can; that last year 10 per
cent of the road funds were spent in
the territory now Benewah county;
that the commissioners are doing all
they can to cut down expenses, but
that under the present government
system, with heads of departments
having considerable authority, the
county's business cannot be conducted
along close lines found in private
business, since the commissioners can
have very little to say about county
affairs.
Auditor Dandy said 10 reply to a
questions from w. J. Tucker that for
the past two years the inspection OF
county books by state inspectors has
not been frequent, aud apparently it
has not been frequent, and apparently
has been superficial.
John Howard said the tax burden
falls The heaviest on the people who
are out of work most or a part of the
time each year. He described In
stances coming under his personal
observation as really desperate.
