The Home Circle
thoughts from the Editorial Pen


Questions Mothers Can Answer.
Some Of the neighborhood ques-
tons which might be controlled by
the cooperation of the mothers are:
Why is there a different standard
Of action and ideals for the boys than
for the girls?
Can the night street corner boys
be kept az homer
Why was home good enough until
he was ten, eleven or twelve years
old, when he answered the call of the
street?
Why do the girls consider it their
place 10 be st home?
VIII this double standard of action
for the girls and boys ever conflict?
Chiefly Boy Problem.
l believe the neighborhood prob
lem is chiefly boy problem. The
boys life is divided into three peri
DDS, infancy from birth to six years
Of age, childhood from six to twelve
and the adolescent period from
twelve years 10 manhood. The try
ing time in the government of a boy
is in the adolescence. One-third of
all the population OF this city is in
the adolesceat age. and SO you see
We are dealing with one-third of all
the people.
Why should parents relax the reins
of guidance FOR the boy in his teens.
when he is in the most critical stage
the street gang" stage? This re-
Taxation is not intentional on the part
of the parents, it Is only that the boy
himself feels the call OF the street
and the gang and the parent fails to
90 with him. In way the gang
spirit is legitimate, but the father
should in spirit 80 with the boy and
the mother and the home should re-
ceiye the gang. Recall in memory
the pleasures of your young days
when you went with a crowd and
have sympathy with your child in
that same enjoyment.
Boys Club Meets at Home.
The best type of boys club in the
world meets in the home kitchen or
in the living room. The evening
lamp is the homes lighthouse and the
hour after sunset is the Sabbath of
the day. The evening hour and the
home ought to be made SO that the
children will love it. The parents
should provide books and papers and
magazines and games for school-day
evenings. On Friday and Saturday
evenings extra social affairs may be
held, an occasional party and a meet
ing of the crowd or the gang in some
home under careful supervision. The
boys and girls ought to meet together
in these evenings and there should be
an understanding and a neighbor-
: hood standard for going home in
time, so every mother would know
Just when the children would be at
home.
Do you know your boys friends?
Do you ever take time to bake an ex-
tra loaf of raisin bread or an extra
pan of ginger bread SO your boy can
share with his friends, who will by
that token know that mother is also
their friend?

Gabriel Steagall has com.
menced an action in the district
court against w. r. Pierce and
the Atlas Tie company to collect
the sum of S76.5O alleged to be
due for stumpage for $4,000 feet
of saw logs which the said Pierce
cut on the lands of the plaintiff.
Ii is alleged that Pierce sold the
logs to the Atlas Tie company and
that they we're delivered at Chat
colet and so mixed with other logs
belonging to the company that
they could not be separated.
The plaintiff further alleges
that he has taken the necessary
steps required by law to hold a
lien on the logs for the purchase
price and asks for judgment for
S76.5O, the price of the logs, Si.00
fees paid for filing the lien and
for fifty dollars attorney fees and
that the lien on the logs be fore
closed. C. S. Malone of Plum
mer is the attorney for the plain
tiff.

The show has not been as sue
|cessful for the past two years as
the promoters could desire and
it was thought one reason for this
was that the association was not
of a permanent nature and had
no money back Of it with which
Go meet possible deficits. II was
decided to remedy this by max
ng the association permanent and
charge membership fee.
A meeting for the purpose or
organizing a permanent associa-
tion will be held at the same
place Monday evening, December

are interested in fancy poultry
will be present and join the as
sociation and take part in the or
ganization.

He says that business is booming
in the east, factorys and manu-
featuring plants are all working
overtime and that the railroads
are having a great deal Of trouble
il handling the freight which is
offered them.
Speaking of politics he said
that there was no question but
what Wilson would be renOminat-
ed by the democrats. He stated
that Bryan would not oppose Will
son but would cOntine himself to
doing all in his power to prevent
the passage by Congress of any
legislation to increase the army
or navy or to take steps to pre-
pare this country for war.
Mr.. Elder states that Wilson
is very strong with everyone in

the general impression in the
east that Wilson will win easily
in a campaign for his reelection.

Harry Brdden
Killed In Wreck
PHIL DAWSON IS BADLY INJURED
Car Loaded With Logs Jumps The Track On
BranSOH'S Logging Railroad

Harry Braden, a brakeman on
G. A. Branson's logging railway,
lost his life and another brake
man, Phil Dawson, was badly in
jured in an accident which oc-
cured on that road shortly after
twelve o'clock Friday night.
The two men we're on the night
crew and were bringing out a
load of logs. The accident oc-
cured about three-quarters of a
mile from Santa and at the foot
OF an eight per cent grade. The
crew had the train we'll under
control coming down the grade
but just before they reached the
bottom they ran into place
where the rails were covered with
light dry snow and the brakes re-
fusd to hold. The two brake
men were on the front Of the rear
car and this car jumped the
track. AS the car wheels struck
the ties it was brought up short
throwing a portion of the logs
off. The men jumped but were
caught by the falling logs.
Braden was killed instantly, his
body being badly crushed and
mangled. DawsOn's right arm
and left collar bone were broken,
and his face was cut and bruised
so that he was hardly recognizable
and he was badly bruised about
the body. The two men were
taken to Santa and DR.. Platt was
sent for. They we're brought to
this city Saturday afternoon on a
freight, Dawson being taken to
Platt's hospital and Braden to
Mulcahy's undertaking parlors.
Dawson's home is in COeur d.
Alene, where he has a sister and
two brothers. They had been
notified of the accident and came
up on the noon boat and were here
when he was brought in. AL
though his injuries are serious,
he is doing nicely and will recover
unless complications set in.
< Braden was a young man about
NJ years old and unmarried. AL
though he was we'll known here,
but very little seems to be known
of his relatives. It was thought
that he had relatives in Duluth
and Mr.. Branson wired the chief
OF police Of that city asking that
they be looked up. He received
a reply Sunday from James Bra
den, father of the dead man, ask
ing that the remains be shipped
tc that city for burial and they
were sent there Monday.
