Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Teachout en-
tertained at dinner last Sunday for
Mr.. and Mrs. Ed. Zimmerman.
VIM. Anderson of the State Inspect
ion department of weights and meas
ures was visitor here Tuesday in his
regular line of duty.
Mrs. Chas. Teachout gave BIRTH
day party last Wednesday afternoon
to number of the high school
friends of her daughter, Hazel. It
was in honor of her daughters 18th
birthday.
The dance given by the Bachelors
Club in Anon Hall last Friday night
was great success. Supper was
served at the Hotel Richland at which
43 couples were amply provided for
with most satisfying spread.
In the absence of a pastor at the
M. E. church last Sunday, large
part of that congregation attended
services at the Evangelical church,
which were conducted by the pastor
of that church, Rev. G. w. Hoy.
Something went wrong with the
pumping plant which supplies water
to the business district and private
houses last week, necessitating the
overhauling of same. Messrs. Harry
Hutton, A. R. Long and A. S. Murray
completed the repairs within a day
and caved any serious delay.
A gasoline pumping plant has un-
til recently supplied the water for the
private water system in the large
house owned by M. o. Kitten of Long
Beach, California and occupied by F.
j. O'Brien. Now the gasoline power
has been desplaced by an electric mo-
tor and "engine trouble" is supposed
to have ceased.
Mrs. E. F. johnson and children will
leave next Saturday for Osborne,
Idaho, to make it their future home.
Osborne is suburb of the mining
town of Wallace and Mr.. johnson is
employed there as overseer on large
ranch owned by a mining company.
The many friends of the family here
abouts regret their leaving but wish
them all prosperity in their new home.
Herschel Jameson has bought the
gasoline power well drilling outfit
formerly owned by contractor Murray
and has it in operation now drilling a
well near the blacksmith shop Of
Jameson & Newell. The well, and
watering trough which will be placed
conveniently for the watering of
horses, is something that has been
very much needed in town and will be
appreciated by many ranchers.
C. S. Gibbs recently came here from
Idaho to live and engage in the real
estate business. A very few hours
only it took for him to become ac-
quainted with the local king of trad
ers, M. C. Poindexter, and last Tues
day Mr.. Poindexter traded to Mr..
Gibbs, the ranch which he very recent
ly got in trade from A. C. Lowery,
for 80 acres of land in Boise county,
Idaho; so acres of which is heavily
timbered and the balance in fine grass
pasture land, suitable for dairy pur-
poses. 1t is supposed that Mr.. Poin-
dexter will remain on the Lowery
place for a while, but you never can
tell.

Some weeks ago the well known
family of II. j. Hardt, moved away
from here, going overland, the OBJ
jective point being Lewiston, Idaho.
When near their destination a serious
runaway of their team occurred in
which Mrs. Hardt and small son
were badly injured. Mrs. Hardt hav-
ing both legs broken, and the boys
ribs broken and his back hurt, so bad
ly that his life was despaired of.
Private letters received by friends
here recently, give the information
that Mrs. Hardt is on the way to re-
vocery, as is also the boy, but that it
will be years before they will entirely
recover from the shock.

OF More Importance Than Is

Commenting on the theory. now so
popular. that educators should concen-
trate on the training OF hands rather
than the training OF minds. II the
young persons OF our land are to grow
into useful men and women, Mary
Leal Hardness, writing in the Allan
tic. gives il as her opinion that 1T is
a tremendous fallacy that the pos
SCISSOR OF only the trained hand can
hope with any well-founded confidence
to be included in that desirable com
pany which is both interesting and in
tcrested.

an to sweep a floor properly, | doubt

streets in the most dustless and sani-
tary manner known to science, | still

sources for elfentertainment In his

tual resources from which to draw
