WELL UNDER WAY,

The new well at the city water plant
is under way. The well was sunk
about 10 feet and then the shoe built
upon which the masonary walls will
rest. AS the well is sunk further the
shoe will be dropped and the walls ad-
ded TO a. the top. Before commencing
some pipes leading to well points we're
removed SO that the well could be NOV
ed a few feet west to prevent enc:oach-
ment on the G. & N. W. right-of-way.
There is quite difference OF opinion
among citizens as to the value to be
derived from the $1,000 being spent,
bat nearly every one thinks that the
recourse must be exhausted before
lake intake is seriously contemplated.

The Board of Education met Monday
evening and opened bids for the new

they did not desire to take any chances
with the former proceedings in which
they had advertised for bids without
securing the approval of the city coun-
Gil to the plans, and specifications and
estimates as the law requires. The
only change was the general construc-
ton work will now be let to Tom
Sporer instead of to Albert Tomchek.

Starr in vocal duet.
This church which was organ
lied Jan. 9, 1890, was not only
the first protestant church in
Colville, but was the first protes-
tant organization between Spo-
kane and the international boun-
Diary line.
In the early spring of 1890 Rev.
J. B. Clark came to Colville
with a view of establishing a
church organization here. After
looking over the field for some
weeks Mr.. Clark found that there
were two men and four ladies
willing to affiliate themselves
with and assist in building
a Congregational church in
Colville. Whereupon in meet
ting of the members and the
pastor it was agreed that fif-
teen hundred dollar building
would be erected, the Congrega-
tional Missionary Society agree
ing to subscribe one-half the
amount, while the other half
would be raised by local sub
scriptions and donations. In
the meantime Rev. Clark held
regular services every two weeks
in what was then known as
Hofstetter hall.
During the summer OF 1890
various socials, suppers and par
ties were given as benefits for
the church fund. 1t may be
said that in these benefits the en-
tire population contributed
literally. 1t is told of two
saloon men who would attend
these suppers that whenever
either made their appearance
they would be seated at large
table which would be soon filled
and their bill averaging from
$5 to SIS would be freely paid.
In the fall of 1890 the building
was erected and early the fol-
lowing spring was completed.
On March l, 1891. the new church
was dedicated by Reverend 7. W.
Walters of Spokane. Some of
the early pastors of this church,
Clark, Daily, Jesseph, Lewis, had
some difficulty in collecting their
salaries, although the four stores,
six saloons and two hotels paid
their regular assessments to this
fund.
In this connection story is
told of saloon keeper who sign
ed a subscription paper for main
tanning the minister's salary.
The man looked over the paper
and found that $3.50 was the
largest amount subscribed and
signed for this amount and

great educators might be nouced:
"Christianity is impotent in the
face of the present international
conflict in. Europe because it has
stood for generations allied with
the powers that are waging the
war. because it has, preached
subservience and not liberty,
and because its teachings are un-
ethical and are based not ontthe
simple rules set down by Christ,
but upon fabrications of dogma
and mysticism expressedtin rites,
sacraments and ceremonies, "tde-
clared DR.. Charles w. Eliot,
president. emeritus of Harvard
university, in an address at Phil
adelphia.
DR.. Eliot spoke under the aus
pices of the Unitarian churches
of the city. He said that science
has placed the world where it is
in the line of progress and not
Christianity. Science and not
the church, he added, is binding
the wounds on the battlefield.

founding of the Colville Congre-

Ignorance of the powers and
duties of the state examiner OF
banks and banking has led to
some unfounded criticism of
State Examiner Walter E. Han
son. To begin with the law does
not. permit Mr.. Hanson to select
the receivers for failed state
banks. All he can do is to take
charge of the bank temporarily
and straighten up its books and
affairs so far as possible until the
receiver has been appointed by
the state court. But few of the
receivers so far named by the
courts have been recommended
by Mr.. Hanson. The department
has been criticised for not max
ing public the result of its investi-
cations into the failed banks.
The critics lose sight of the fact
that section 1908 of Remington
& Ballinger's code provides that
if an examiner or any of his en-
ployes make public any such in
formation they are subject to
fine of $1,000 and Imprisonment
in Jail until the fine has been
paid, and to forfeiture of office.
That the office of state bank
examiner has not fulfilled its
duties to the public in all cases is
we'll known in Stevens county,
but criticism should be directed
to the failures Of duty, and not
to the acts which are required by
law. That bank in this state
should fail so utterly as did the
Marcus state bank is a shining
example of some ones ineficien-
cy either in examining or in re-
porting the condition of the bank
at the regular examinations in
years past. The bank was Or
ganized during the first year of
the notorious Hay administration.
Conditions prevailed in that bank
which should have stopped it's
course a long time ago. Just
who was to blame should be dis
covered by those who lost the
money. Directors of a bank
ought to know what is going on.
but so should the state bank eX-
aminer's office. Our state law
providing for bank examinations
was made for the purpose of pro-
tecting the public, and not for
the purpose of providing salaries
for examiners. According to re-
ports which we believe reliable,
the Marcus banks erratic career
should have been halted years
ago-for the protection of the
public. The affairs of the bank
are now being sifted by a re-
ceiver.

for the assistant was at Cliffside
school. He had noticed that Mrs.
Coulter had constantly to be called
away from her work for superin-
tendence in other parts of the building
Not only her class suffered as a con-
sequence, but the school was there
by not fully profting by the teachers
valuable services. Mr.. Smith urged
that definite supervision be provided
for each school. Should not the
Grantwood assistant be transferred
to Cliffside.
President Whelan thought that the
young woman should be changed to
the lower school. Mr.. Bray objected
that the latter was indispensable to
him in the office for the great amount
of clerical work in connection with
reports, records, test papers, mimeo-
graphing and the making out Of
Identification cards. Sooner or later
non-teaching principal would be
needed for Grantwood school. The
time would come, too, when a man
principal would be needed at Cliff
side school. Mr.. Conroy, however,
personally did not see where any
other principal could be needed as
long as they were SO fortunate as
to have the present head there.
Mr.. Smith returning to his point
insisted that something must be done,
and moved that Supervisor Bray
ascertain how much of the time of
Miss O'Brien and Mrs. Coulter was
taken away from their teaching by
virtue of their executive work. This

Domestic Engineering
Subject Of Mrs.
Pattison' S Lecture

Mrs. Frank Pattison, former chair
man of the New Jersey Federation
of Woman's Clubs, delivered lee
ture of unusual interest under the
auspices of the Domestic Economics
Department of the Cliffside Park
Woman's Club last Monday after
noon at the home of Mrs. George
Dickinson. A very large attendance
of members of the club were present.
Mrs. Pattison's theme was the
scientific management of the family
plant, or home: engineering" she
called it. The profession of house.
work, she said, was the only one
which had not developed technique.
Domestic engineering" was too
much matter of hit or miss, and
of unskilled labor. Consequently it
too often was run at a loss. The
amount of money was not the great
question in the running Of the home,
but the way the money was handled,
and whether the various departments
returned dividends on the investment:
dividends of health, happiness, conf
fort.
Mrs. Pattison said that in all other
departments of industry, which, after
all, were but amplifications of the
industry of the home, unskilled labor
occasioned the greatest loss. Hap
PLY, the servant problem was pass
ing away, and eventually domestic
service would be rendered by spec
cially trained persons working on an
hourly schedule. Then would come
the Incorporating establishment,
and the present drudgery and menial-
ism would disappear.
Mrs. Pattison said that in the
home is the essence of national life;
on the successful management of
the home depended the higher quail
tie of love and mutual understanding.
The lecturer closed her discourse
by repeating the twelve principles
enunciated by Harrington Emerson:
1, idealism; 2, common sense; 3,
competent counsel; A square deal; s.,
discipline; 6, accurate records; 7
plans and schedules; 8, standard
ization; 9, cooperative relations; 10,
courage and persistence; II, justice;
and IL, efficiency and reward.
The lecture was preceded by de-
lightful social hour, tea being served.

Tesla Has Great Plan
For Greatest Of
All Destroyers

Nikola Tesla, the inventor, winner
of the 1915 Nobel physics prize, has
filed patent applications on the es-
sential parts of machine the pos
sibilities of which test layman's
imagination and promise a parallel
of Thor's shooting thunderbolts from
the sky to punish those who had
angered the gds.
Acme of Destruction
Dr. Tesla insists there is nothing
sensational about it, that it is but
the fruition of many years of work
and study. He is not yet ready to
give the details of the engine, which,
he says, will render fruitless nay

sired point On the globe on it's errand
of destruction, if destruction it's

Ten miles or a 1000 miles, it will
be all the same to the machine, the
inventor says. Straight to the point

go with precision, delivering a blow
that will paralyze or kill as is de-
