Time TO LEND
A HELPING HAND
SOME FRIENDLY SUGGESTIONS
ARE OFFERED BY A PAY
ETTE BANKER.

Our community and Valley have
just suffered great calamity and
misfortune in the very great loss
of our fruit crops. For this, We all
are, of course, very sorry, but NOW
is the time to temper sorrow with
material help; and in order to help
iour neighbors, friends and the com
munity, we must face the difficulties
and the situation as MEN. We must
not look for personal gain from the
misfortune of our community, nor to
push nor pinch our n@ighbors just
because at this time they may not
De able to meet promptly tner
obligations, but we should lend
helping hand, and be brother at
this time in all the name lmples.
Give sympathy to all, and help IL
nancially to those we possibly can.
This does not mean that we should
empty our vaults and purses for the
mere asking, but We should help
willingly where help is needed. But
we should all make our requests for
help and assistance as the absolute
needs require.
This is not a matter of charity
by any means, but is the using OF
our strength and resources to meet
an emergency. Your Banks will not
press you, but will willingly help you;
your merchants are going to as
sist you all they possibly can, but
reduce your apparent requirements 10
real necessities, and then you Will
be surprised to know how really easy
this difficulty is going to be taken
care of. No MAN is going to take
any advantage of your misfortune.
We have seen Chicago rise from
her great ash pile, and San FRANCISCO
from the terrible destruction, all
within themselves, and to greater and
better achievements; so why should
we be discouraged over what in COM
parison to theirs is nothing. Be sad,
but not discouraged, and let US
arise above the situation with more
determined efforts, but with firm
resolve to not put all our eggs In
one basket again. Let fruit raising
predominate where it is best ntted'
but let us raise something else be-
sides fruit entirely. Run not entire
ly to one line of agriculture or horti-
culture production, but D1yERS1f- =
raise some grain, some VeeHRbles'
chickens, hogs and COWS, and when
you have gotten fairly well started
along these lines, then the sooner
will you reach that preparedness
state where misfortune to one line
or branch of our industry will not
affect US so seriously.
Look into the situation calmly and
thoroughly, and then decide what Is
best and the most reasonable IN the
future to do; and then put your
shoulders to the wheel, meet the
conditions as they are, and ouf
misfortunes of today may be tne
blessings of our future. But help one
another, consider one another, ana
tighten so far as possible the other
mans burden, and thereby be COM
fort and a help and a credit 10
your community and humanity IN
general.

CLASS OF THIRTY
YOUNG PEOPLE
RECEIVE DIPLOMAS AS GRADU-
ATES Of PAYETTE HIGH
SCHOOL.

f! The Commencement exercises o.
the Payette High School, which were
concluded Monday night with the
splendid address by President Mel
vim A. Brannon of the State Univer-
| sity at Moscow, musical exercises an6
the presentation of diplomas to a
class of thirty graduates by General
l.. V. Patch, clerk of the Payette
school board, rounded out another
and indeed one of the most success
full years in the history of our public
schools.
The complete calendar and program
published in this paper last week, be-
ginning with the Baccalaureate SER
mon which was delivered by Rev. G.
w. Barnes, pastor of the Methodist
church, before a very large audi
ence in the Amma Theatre, Sunday
evening, was carried out practically
as printed. The musical feature of
the program, under the direction of
Prof. Nelson, was exceptionally fine,
affording as it did, an opportunity for
of the remarkable progress that is
being made in that department. The
sermon by Rev. Barnes was both i'm
pressive and appropriate, carrying
with it a message to the young peo-
pie that should not soon be forgotten,
A vocal solo, "The Strength of the
Hills" by Miss Naomi Parsons, was
a very pleasing feature of the eve
ning's entertainment.
Monday evening the Emma Theatre
was again filled by an immense audi
ence that turned out to hear DR..
Brannon, enjoy the music and wit
ness the presentation of diplomas to
the thirty young ladies and gentle
men who had earned those honors
by having finished the High School
course. The address delivered by
DR.. Brannon was one of the best
that has ever been heard in this
city on such an occasion, and was so
applicable to both local and world
wide conditions as they now exist,
that it held the lange audience with
a grip of intense interest. DR..
Brannon is a man of broad ideas, ID
a forceful speaker and is so earnest
in the great work in which he Is en-
gagged, that he inspires respect and
enthusiasm wherever he comes In
contact with the people.
The High School orchestra and
glee club, and Miss Harlene Satoris,
with vocal solo, blossom Land"
all contributed to the program which
furnished an evening of most en-
joyable entertainment.
General Patch addressed the class
with brief but very appropriate re-
marks before the presentation of the
diplomas, the program concluding
with the High School chorus, La
Czarine," after which, while the
orchestra furnished inspiring music,
the parents, friends and well-wishers
of the graduates went forward and
showered their congratulations upon
them.

Every hundred yards there is some.

The country is mad with terror. An
aicny and chaos reign everywhere

Most OF 1t is due to the Roum1nian
Government itself which ordered all
civilians TO leave their homes as the
German armies advanced with al
most incredible swiftness.
It is to bring order out Of this
chaos that Gen. Won Tulff. former
