few days ago, one of these big
high "sanisity" affairs where it
took six months to construct the
wedding cake, which cost several
hundred dollars and measured
fourteen feet high and forty feet
around, and all the guests were
supposed to take a piece of said
cake and poke it under their pill
lows before retiring at night, so
no harm would come to them or
something to that effect. But
the most of us guys would rath-
err tuck some of that cake be-
meath our belts, instead of polk
ing it under our pillows.

THE sHAwKEY SCHOOL

This SCHOOL was named in
honor of our efficient state SUI
perintendent, but | am convinc-
ed that if he knew what dis
isatfaction is created here am
he would not feel highly
honored.
1t seems that the Board of Ed
ucation manages to create dis
satisfaction in at least one rooms
Last year it was room 2., this
year it seems to be room L.
1t seems to me that if the
Board would ask the trustees to
recommend the teachers, much
of this dissatisfaction would be
avoided.
Wolf Run and Sugar Creek
schools were consolidated in
travail and in travail they have
existed.
1t seems now that the object of
the powers that be" is to take
the school entirely out Of local
control and that all the people
will have to do will be to "pay
the bill"
Tax payers better wake up"
i want to say a wsrd in all kind
ness to the Board of Education
of Barker District; treat the
people atShawkey with the same
consideration that you do those
at Junior and Dartmoor.
The people at Shawkey are
iuct as competent to manage
their school, as any in the coun-
ty.
Four ifferentteachers applied
for room |, and one Of the trus-
tees remarked that ''The most
unsatisfactory applicants was
selected"
We hope, the difficulties at
this place may be amically adj
justed and that better work will
be done than was last year.

WAR"

have just landed my lockers
on a notable newspaper article
writtenby "Geezer" who claims
that war is necessary. This
same "Geezer" also makes the
bold statement, to wit: "How
Could We Get Along Without
WARP" Now in my opinion, if
common sense was the school
man in the worlds big school
house.
"Geezers" of this brand would
most likely be occupying a posi-
tion down about a foot from the
tail end of the class, and would
probably be trying to argue with
the schoolmanthat 2 and 2 makes
3 or that z was the first letter of
the alphabet.
"How Could. We Get Along
Without WARP" Yes indeed !!
How could we get along without
cutworms in our cabbage patch?
How could we raise Taters if it
wasn't for the 'tater-bugs? And
how in the thunder could we
sleep if it wasn't for a million
he'd bugs crawling over us? Or
how in the dickens could we see
in the dark if it wasn't for John
D.? And how long could we live
if all the flies and skeeters had
been "swatted"? 1t seems almost
impossible that in this day and
age of enlightment that any one
would uphold this bloody butch
cry and say that this wholesale
murder of oneanother was nee
essary or that we couldn't get
along without it. It is almost a
year since the nations of Europe
fell upon each other, at the be-
hest of their blood thirsty rulers
in the most terrible war that ev-
err deluged the earth with blood,
and yet the end Of this bloody
struggle is nowhere in sight,
nearly tenmillion men have been
killed and wounded in the Euo-
pean war, and this is not the on
ly cost, just think of themothers,
widows and orphans that will
! look in vain for the return of
son, husbanr and father. Just
thing of the thousands of men
that have been butchered in the
bloom of youth and manhood.
/ We can shut our eyes and let the
past rise before us, we see them
part with those they love. Some
are walking for the last time in
quiet woody places with the
maidensthey adore. We hear the
/ whisperings and the sweetvoices
of eternal love as they lingering
/ ly part for ever. Others are
bending over cradles kissing
babies that are asleep, some are
receiving blessings from old men
and fond loving mothers. We
see the husbands part from
wives, we see the wife standing
in the doorway with thebabe in
her arm-standing in the sun
light sobbing as he kisses her
good-by, he is gone and for ever.
Oh haste the day when neither
heart, voice nor pen shall be
|; dumb in partraying war as it
really is. Maythetime soon
come when soldiers will realize
that they have nothing against
each other, and have nothing TIC
1 fight for.

FULLY ORGANIZED
Lieutenant H. c. FOOks, COmmandant,
Looking Forward to Successful
Year-SOOn Have Outdoor Rifle
Range

The battalion of cadets at the Uni
versity of Idaho is once more
an actuality. Lieutenant Fooks is
looking forward to a successful year,
every commissioned officer with the
exception of Cadet Captain Morrison,
has reported for duty and the number
of men who compose the battalion
has increased considerably over the
number at this time last year. Cap
tain Morrison is expected to resume
his military work at the close of the
football season.
Lieutenant Fooks is planning on a
revival of the somewhat neglected
work on the outdoor rifle range. A
number of years ago this was an i'm
portant element in the military work
here, but at present only an old, bull
let-battered, crumbling pile of rocks
back of the athletic field marks the
scene of past activity. The equip
ment for it's re-establishment is pro-
vided by the federal government and
it is only matter of ordering and
installing the three targets which
Lieutenant Fooks plans on utilizing.
An immediate tryout is planned, to
fill existing vacancies in the COM
missioned staff, and several promo
tions are in order.

Fifteen 7 ear-Old Son of j. M. MallOy
Of Or0finO Started Out to See the
World But His Tour Cut Short by
Sheriff Campbell

Sheriff Campbell is gaining some
reputation for getting them comm
OF goin'"! Wednesday the sheriff
spent a strenuous day in the noun
evening shadows had fallen, to find a
hurry-up call from Orofino asking
that he apprehend Mark, the 15-year-
old son of Deputy Assessor J. M. NAL
10y, Of that city, who, chafing under
paternal restraint, had turned his
nose toward Moscow and the great, big
and weary the sheriff set out to do
what the judge issuing the warrant
commanded. Figuring that he would
get his man comm" he went to Joel,
inspected the various fiat and box
cars making up the NJ P.'s night
freight, took the evidence of the said
foiled but undaunted. Setting his
hirelings on the trail of the much
wanted 15-year-old, the sheriff yester-
day bethought himself to enjoy the at
fractions of the Colfax fair, whence he
set out with congenial party in the
Silent-Knight.
Hardly had the party left Moscow
until it passed a youth trudging along
the higway burdened with suitcase,
his eyes, to the front as though he
might be carrying the banner Excel
sior." In passing the sheriff sat up
and took notice. Illuminating he said,
II believe that's the kid | want I'll
get him goin'' Chaffeur Armbruster,
overhearing The sheriff's monologue,
asked why? received the eXplana
tion,. reversed for half mile, and
soon had the tourists hearty thanks
for a proffered ride. 1t soon all came
out The tourist was the much-want-
ed 15-year-old and after a rest at
Pullman was picked up by the sheriff's
party on their return from COlfaX, and
today his (the tourist's) brother came !
to Moscow, accompanied the youth to
his home, where there was no doubt |
a happy family reunion.
