Righteousness. his efforts give a
higher tone to the citizenship Of the
state, ard are both inspiring and
beneficiaf to the young. No man in
public life, perhaps, has left more
favorable impression upon the public
mind than has Justice Bulge, and it
is not strange that his friends are to
be numbered by his acquaintanees,
and naturally enough, his popularity
is Of constantly increasing proper
tions throughout the state. He is in
growing demand as public speaker,
and bnt last week received an in
yitition to deliver the principal
address at the laying of the corner
stone at the dedication OF the new
Elk's lodge building which is to occur
next month. With such men as justice
Bulge leading in public life in this
state, its citizenship, present and
future. is assured against moral
degeneracy.

NEIGHBORS ENTER
TANNED,

A farewell party in behalf of Mr.
and Mrs. J. B. Cook, who will leave
for Kansas shortly, was given at their
residence just south of town last Fri
day afternoon and evening, by the la
dies of the Farmers Home club.
Shortly after noon Mrs. Cook was
to see about 20 of the ladies
arrive with heavy boxes, baskets,
bundles, ETC., and without further no.
tice take possession of her c0mmod-
ious home. After depositing the
boxes and baskets in the kitchen and
pantry, bundles and handbags were
opened, scissors, needles, thread and
diverse pieces of material were ex-
tracted and before the astonished
parties knew what it was all about a
quilting bee" was in full swing.
Each lady made most beautifully
pieced square block, with her own
name worked into the center of the
block. The center block of the quilt
was adorned with the name of the
club and the date. Mr. and Mrs.
Clark having both been very active
members of the Farmers Home club,
the ladies took this means of express
ing their appreciation as well as their
II
and members.
About 7 O'Clock in the evening the
men and children began to arrive on
the scene. In very short time the
| tables were filled and everybody was
made to realize that the ladies had
not only brought their sewing but de-
termined to maintain their enViable
reputation as hostesses, and pre-
| pared supper fit for kings.
After a very determined but only
partially successful effort to dispose
of all the chicken, fried and boiled
and broiled, salads, pickles, sauces,
| jellies. cakes and pies, the tables
were cleared and short business ses-
sion was held. Mrs. Cook announced
her resignation as secretary and
treasurer or the club, which office
she has held since the organization .
year ago.
At the close of the session express
] si0ns were heard from all sides re-
GREETING the loss of these good friends
and neighbors. Mr.. and Mrs. Cook
| expressed themselves as sorry thai
they must leave their friends behind

wishes for thir prosperity and sue
cess in their new home were tender

| Now followed a most pleasing mu
sical program, rendered by differen
members, both singly and collective
ly.
The very enjoyable evning came t
a close shortly before midnight
when after saying good night, every
body went home, many thinking will

a few days in the hospital at Boise.
While engaged in repairing wires at
Silver City at the top of a 5O-foot
pole. an associate, through error,
weakened the support on one side,
allowing the pole to fall to the
ground, with Cox under it. How he
escaped death is a miracle, but as it
was Cox was badly bruised, and it
was necessary to carry him overland
several miles to the train at Nampa,
and from there to the Boise hospital.

THE DOCTORS SACRIFICE .

BY Gerdlo kdIpn amos
Copyright by W. G. Chapman.)
Everybody wondered when middle
aged DR.. Hick, widower with a small
son, became engaged to the rich Miss
Louise Soutar of the Manor. But the
story of the breaking off of their en-
gagement was less of wonder and
more of a scandal Some blamed the
Soutars and some the doctor, but all
were agreed that he was fool to let
people know so much about his bust
ness.
The diphtheria epidemic in the vii
lage was not serious, but there were
more than a score of cases. Mrs.
Seutar's son, Leonard, Louise's
brother, was one of the first, and the
doctors son Frank one of the last.
And there was no antitoxin. The
state board, which supplied it, had
been held up by some sort of crank
Injunction. However, antitoxin was
not considered necessary at first.
The cases were doing very well with
out it.
All except that of Leonard Soutar
and Frank Hicks. The doctor want
ed antitoxin badly, and he had just
enough for one injection in his tube
People got to know that and that was
the doctors cardinal error.
Mrs. Soutar and her daughter were
panic-stricken over the possibility of
Leonard'S death. When the doctor an
bounced that he intended to use the
remedy only as last resource, for
whichever of the two boys needed it
most, the situation became critical
At Leonard's bedside Mrs. Soutar
went down on her knees.
4 Hes dying, doctor. My boys dy-
ing" she sobbed. you must save
his life."
The doctor raised his head. my
son is worse" he answered.

titoxin to the one who is most in
need of it."
He went away At home, his own
boy was in the critical stage of the
disease. Gossip had it that he was
dying. Hardly had he entered his
door before the telephones got busy.
Mrs. Soutar heard that Frank Hicks
was to receive the drug.
She left the nurse at her sons bed

AMERICAS GREAT NEED.

That the war has given the Ameri- can nation wonderful opportunity for trade expansion is hardly matter of dispute. Three yof the greatest man ufaeturing and exporting nations of the world have practically withwradw from among the worlds supply depots and America stands practically alone as the prospective supply market and granary of the earth. And yet. with the world looking to us for he bulk of their manufactured and food products we find ourselves in the almost paradox ical position of one who has everything to sell and yet can sell nothing. The reason for this. as is generally realized. lies in the fact that since the begin ming of the War and with the conse- quent withdrawal of the great mara time nations of the earth from the carrying trade. We are not in a posi- tlon To place our products in the hands Of those who are seeking To purchase
 AS some one has aptly expressed it we are like farmer who has plenty of produce to sell but is lacking a team 10

carry it to market. For years the United States has been compelled to look to England and Germany for the placing of practically all her surplus products in the places of demand and this inthe face of the fact that she is one of the greatest producing and man. ufacturng nations of the world.
 Since the beginning of the decline of the American merchant marine some time prior to the civil war. the United States has been under the necessity of shipping the bulk of her products in foreign bottoms and the percentage has grown steadily with each passing de- cade until the account stood last year, according to the statisticans, ninety one per cent in favor of foreign carriers and nine per cent that we were able to retain ourselves.
 Of this enormous total in favor of others sixty per cent according to the same authorities. was carried by Brit 1 ish vessels and fifteen per cent fell to Germany and the toll or carriage there on has run into many millions, so many, that last year they ran well Into the hundreds Of all the exporting nations Iof the earth China excepted America lalone has no means of placing her pro- lducts in the market of the world with lnearlv ten per cent of the value of the marketed products The need of an American merchant marine is thus ap- lparent, and now that the bulk of the nations carriers have been withdrawn, ithe need has reached such monumental proportions that it can no longer be ignored and has taken concrete form
