About Death of Will Goetz

The following item from a Pa
louise, WASH, paper will interest
many of our readers who were
shocked to learn of the recent
death of Will Goetz:
william Goetz, aged "a, eld-
est son of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Goetz, we'll known pioneers of
the Viola district, died in the
Gritman hospital at Moscow
Tuesday night of acute nephritis,
after short illness. The death
of the young man, who until a
few days before had been in the
best of health, came not only as
a shock to the family, but also to
the community, where he had
been born, and had spent his en-
tire life.
young Goetz had been in
Moscow for several days taking
treatment, but felt so well Tues
day morning that he returned
home. He was taken with vomit-
ing before reaching home, and
by night was so much worse that
DR.. Gritman was called, and
came out to the home for him in
car, taking him back to the
hospital, where he lived but a
few hours.
William Goetz was we'll known
in Palouse, having pitched ball
for the Palouse team several sea-
sons. He was a young man OF
likeable disposition and gooc
habits, a favorite among the
young people with whom he as
sociated. He stood almost six
feet and was noted for his ply
sical proves and perfect health,
which made his sudden death 6
greater shock. He leaves, aside
from the parents, two brothers
and a sister. The family has thu
deepest sympathy of the commu
nifty.

A Record Auto Sale

1t is very seldom that an auto
dealer is dragged out of his
downy bed to sell a car to some
anxious customer but that IS
what happened to John Hoene
Saturday night when he sold one
of his new Ford cars to MIR.
Webb, of Reubens. The latter
arrived in town late in the even
ing and called Mr.. Hoene from
his slumbers about ten O'clock
went down to the store and TOOK
out a new Ford touring car, took
lessons in operating it for about
an hour and a half, and by mid
night was joyously vending MS
way homeward with his new pur'
chase. We believe this is the
record purchase among auto deal
ers in Idaho, if not in the entire
Northwest.

Death Valley is
Crossed By Dodge

A recent issue of Motor West,
the Pacific coast motor car publi-
cation, contains a story of con-
quering the western deserts, par
ticularly Death Valley, with an
automobile.
The trip, which embraced 1000
miles, was not planned as a car
test, but the party, headed by 0.
K. Parker, an engineer, was
prospecting for molybdenite, a
rare ore used in steel refining.
The car used was stock Dodge
Brothers touring car and, was
nick-named Death Valley
Dodge"
Motor West says:
mot only did the Death Val
ley Dodge party dare death in
the most awful forms but they
covered a region generally con-
sidered as outside the pale of the
motor car.
'The topography consists of
mountain ranges with desert val
leys, or sinks, between the
mountains, these sinks being
separated by uplifts of volcanic
origin. The region is the most
desolate and barren in America,
and there are no roads but the
trails of the occasional prospect
or"
The article here describes the
trip across the Mojave desert and
the approach to Death Valley by
way of Wildrose canyon.
Continuing, it says:
"Wildrose canyon grades are
so steep that they seem almost
impossible for an automobile; in
fact, it is right there that many
of the cars which have essayed
the trip have come to grief, and
perhaps this is as well, for if
they cannot negotiate Wildrose
canyon they could not live
through the greater strain to
come in the fight with the sand
dunes of Death Valley.
1T was a 24-hour struggle,
where their lives hinged on the
staunchness of the car. Suffice
to say that they won, with never
a break nor never a falter in the
fight across Death Valley and up
the malapi slope of the Funeral
range to Daylight Springs and
an altitude of 1907 feet.
"The return trip was without
incident. There were no mishaps
J and no motor troubles, and the
closing run of 4O7 miles was made
in two days."

Flour Mill Doing
Large Business

The local -four mill is having a
great demand for its products
this fall and is hardly able to
take care of the many orders it
is receiving in this territory, to
say nothing Of repeatedly turn
ing down large orders from coast
dealers for -four for the export
trade. Last week the mill was
entirely out of flour twice and if
the demand continues will have
to run a double shift to handle
it's trade. The mill is turning
out an entire hard wheat flour at
present and will have it on the
market at an early date under
the name of the Tip Top brand.
Local people who have used the
flour claim it is equal to, if not
better than, any flour on the
market. 1t is made from Mar
quis, Canadian Fife and Dakota
Blue Stem and is proving to be a
very superior product. The mill
people are planning on increas-
ing their capital stock and erect
ing a new mill near the depot in
order to better handle the in
creasing business they are de-
veloping. Details of the latter
move may be expected in the
near future.

SCHOOLS MAKE
FINE SHOWING
c4,,t Ont With Total Enroll
~ mont of 265 Students and
More to Come Later---Many
Enter High School.

Roth of the local schools have
ootten nicely started in the work
ef the new school year, which,
y, 0.oording to present indications,
promises to be the best they nave
known for several years.
The public school starts out
with C. W. Jenkins as superln-
tendent and Miss Reilly as prln-
sinal of the high school. The as
sistant teacher in the high school
has not yet arrived but will re-
mort for duty within a few days.
Miss Elva Gray has charge OF the
Nh and 9Th grades, Miss Fannie
McGrew is teaching the 9th and
9Th grades, Miss Wood has charge
If the 3rd and 4th grades and
Mrs. Anna Fryer presides over
the primary department.
There is a total enrolment of
about 125 at the public school
and 80 are in the high school de-
psrtment, which, by the way, is
the highest number ever enrolled
IN h;oh school in the history of
,he school, Of these % are in
the Freshmen class. There are
II nonresident students attend
ing school, all of whom pay tut
tiOn to the local school from their
respective districts.
1t is probable that manual
training courses will be in the
high school course this year,
which will probably result in at
tracting many outside students
to our school.
The parochial school started
out with an enrolment of 14(
and this number will perhaps bt
increased to the total enrolment
Of l65 of last year before many
weeks pass by. Six teachers art
being employed at the parochia
school, as follows: Seventh ant
eighth grades, Sister Hedwig
sixth grade, Sister Bernadette
fourth and fifth grades, Siste
Luzia; second and third grades
Sister Theresa; primary, Siste
Anastasia; music, Sister Ann
The parochial school teache
only as high as the eighth grad
and after passing out of the ps
rOchial school many of the stu
dents are going into the publ
school to complete the highe
grades, while others take colleg
courses at other points.
The prospects for the preser
school year are very bright an
we expect to see some very goo
work accomplished in both schoo
during the term. Cottonwoo
can we'll be proud of her school:
which rank with the best in tn
part of the state, and are gettir
better every year.
