WORTH WORKING FOR

In the window of the First National
bank is a large silver loving cup. 1t
is a beauty both in design and work
manship. 1t has attracted much at
tention both because it is pretty to
look upon, and because the high school
athletes brought it back from Okano-
gan. 1t is trophy for their prowess
for doing things just a little better
than their competitors in the lists. 1t
is not as yet the property of this
school to keep for all time, unless the
boys make good in athletics for the
next two years to come. There are
two reasons why success should re-
ward their efforts TO hang ON to the
cup now that they have it in their
possession. In the first place they
have the advantage of one year, and in
the next place the cup being before
their eyes will be an incentive for re-
newed effort to retain the elegant
piece of silverware. The cup is pres
ented by the county commissioners as
the engraved statement thereon an
nounces, and the school that wins at
the annual meets three successive
years is entitled to ownership. 1t is
prize worth working for, but so
tempting that it is going to make
every school put forth a little more
effort than ever before. The cup is
liable to pass around the circuit for a
number of years before it finally rests
in any one school. Oroville won out
last year, but that does not count.
The boys must win out for the next
two years in order to receive a deed
for it. They will try, and try hard.
That is all any school can do, but
from the fact that the Oroville athletes
have the edge of one year should spur
them on to redoubled effort. Here's
hoping that victory may perch upon
their banner next year, and the year
following so that the trophy may be
here for keeps.

BAND DANCE

The local band, that has done more
to advertise Oroville than any other
feature of the town, is arranging to
give dance Cn FridGy evening, May
21, the proceeds Of which are to be
applied to the purchase of additional.
uniforms. The band is steadily in
creasing in numbers, ard consequent
ly improving with growth. 1t is al
ready one of The largest country bands
in the eastern part of the state. The
new uniforms are needed for the new
members. Here is a cause that should
appeal to the entire community, and
every citizen who can afford to let
go of a dollar, whether he favors or is
opposed to dancing, should invest in
a ticket. The largest crowd of the
new year will be at the Orpheum on
the night Of May 21st

CONTRACT LET

At the council meeting Monday even
ing the contract for grading the sew
eral streets on the north side of the
track, and laying concrete sidewalks
or Main street, from Railroad avenue
to Central avenue, in improvement
district No. l, was let to Silke G. La
Plant, Of Colville, the lowest bidders.
The total cost of actual construction,
according to the bid, will be something
less than $4,000. In addition to con-
struction the town will have to meet
the expense of a supervising engineer
and incidental expenses, which will
materially increase the amount of
bond issue. 1t will be quite a tax on
lot owners within the district, but the
| improvement is much needed, will be
permanent and add very materially to
the value of abutting property. Prop
erty owners will pay off the tax in
annual installments, extending over
ten years. Interest must be added
which will increase the payments, and
the man with the means to pay the full
!, assessment at once is a lucky individ-
ual. Mr.. Silke will commence actual
progress within fortnight.

unpleasant talkative mood from too
much itsthewater.'
In the 5O-yard dash many of the
spectators picked Prince for seconu
and Richardson of Okanogan for third
but the judges found young Virgil
Dickson of Omak, in second place. In
the 220-yard dash, Baines crowded
Young, in spite of the fact that he
drew a poor lane and was obliged to
run in somewhat zigzag course.
with the meet already won, Oro-
vile entered a team in the relay simp-
ly for the benefit of the crowd. Prince
was handicapped by charley horse in
his leg all day and was in no shape
to take part in the relay, and the Oro-
Vile lads show true sportsnanship in
taking part in certain defeat to com
plete the program.
The events themselves were highly
interesting, otherwise it is. doubtful
whether many of the crowd would
ha-" &emained on the grounds, as the
program was drawn out until after
seven o'clock. Announced for 9:30,
the first event was not called until
11:15, and the afternoon program was
delayed until two o'clock. 1t is usual
for such events as the shot put, dis
Gus and pole vault to be run simultan-
eously with the sprints and other
track events, but as this was not done
the spectators were forced to await
the finish of the rather listless discus
throwing and shot putting in a cold
wind before the relay could be run.
The delays, in fairness to the officials,
was more the fault Of the local mana
cement through failure to complete
the proper preliminary arrangements.
f.. c. Quackenbush, who in his young
er days was a star in field meets at
Washington, d. c., made a competent
field marshal, and was ably assisted by
st. John of Riverside. Walt Pein Of

"Oroville brought home the cham
pionship cup donated for annual COM
petition by the county commissioners.
This cup will not remain in permanent
position of any school until it has been
won three consecutive years, but each
winning school will have his name
engraved on the cup. Okanogan won
Ia smaller relay cup to be competed
for yearly under the same conditions.
The winners of each event were given
bronze medals, with ribbons for sec
ond and third places, while Will Cole
was awarded the all around medal
for the most points scored Will
garnered 20 points and was followed
by Young with II, who was given a
medal also"

LIVELY HORSE SALE

A. A. Rutter and j. M. Clifton, of
Spokane, w. F. Franshaw, of Bozeman,
Montana, and B. F. Huges, of Kansas
City, a quaTtette of horse buyers, put
in a lively day in Oroville Tuesday.
They were here to buy horses for
shipment to Europe to be used for
the cavalry and artillery in the allied
armies, and the animals had to fill
certain requirements as to weight,
heighth and color in order to pass
muster. 1t was the liveliest day that
Oroville has seen for months, and the
crowd in town was almost as large
as collects at 4th of July celebra-
ton. The horses were inspected ac-
cepted or rejected at Crisman's barn,
and all day long horse owners and in
trested citizens hung about the prem
ises watching proceedings. A. A.
Rutter, pioneer horse man of east
ern Washington, who knows every
point about a horse from fetlock to
muzzle, would cast his eye over the
animal as led up, and his verdict was
final. When an animal was finally
accepted and the price agreed upon it
was tagged and branded with a small
U. The buyers picked up GA head,
and the price paid on the nail. Over
$1,000 was paid out, which is quite a
comfortable bunch of money to put in
circulation in locality where ready
money has been a stranger for months
The buyers secured fine lot of horses
and were so well pleased that they
will be back in Oroville and the ad-
jacent towns within about two weeks
Last week these same buyers picked
up two car loads at Okanogan. The
horses are shipped to Sheridan, Wyo-
ming, from there to New York and
from thence to France.

ed her best, and the best of all the
contestants according to the verdict
of the judges, was Miss Gertrude
Granger. Her task was a difficult one,
as she spoke in competition with a
number of clever speakers, who have
had more experience appearing in
public than the young champion.
Miss Granger's selection was The
Sioux Chiefs Daughter" and those
who had the pleasure of hearing her
speak in very complimentary terms
OF the dramatic force of the speaker,
her graceful attitude on the stage
and clearness of enunciation. Thus
in the tests of Drawn and the tests of
mental force the Oroville school came
off with flying colors. All honor to
the young lady who SO ably sustained
her part in placing Croville in the
winning column.
This paper has always maintained
that the relation of athletics to good
school work made for the benefit of
both scholars and the school. This
has been conspicuously demonstrated
during the past two years, since Oro-
Vile has appeared as a real competi-
tor in athletic exercises, as the school
has been on a higher standard than
ever before. Studies have not been
subordinate to the athletic features
and interest in sport has not marked
any falling off in the standard of the
scholars. Indeed, the school has i'm
proved as an educational institution
since athletics have been taken up in
earnest. Oroville will have an ac-
credited four year high school begin
ming with next term, and that position
has been gained through the exertions
OF those who have taken the most act
i've part in athletics. Moreover, with
a high standard record in athletics a
school has an attraction for young
men not possessed by schools that
eschew athletics, and it is safe to say
that winning the last two inter-
scholastic meets will be a big factor
in attracting bright and ambitious
boys to the Orovile high school next
year.

when Ed. Bensons team, attached to
heavy wagon, ran away from in
front of Vic Hagerman'G saloon and
collided with Amel Schultz's truck,

was a general mixup of horses and
wagons. The horses escaped with a
few scratches, but the wagons were
