A PRETTY HOME WEDDING

A very pretty home wedding was
solemniZed at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. II. w. Duvall at high noon on
Feb. 5, 1916, when their only daugh-
ire, Mary, was united in marriage to
Mr.. Frank Farnham Of Ross. To the
strains of the wedding march, played
by Miss Vera Rutherford, cousin of the
groom, unattended took their places
beneath canopy of blue and white
and large wedding bell. Their past
or, Rev. Peer, read the ceremony thar
united these two popular young peo-
pie for life.
The ceremony was witnessed by
about 45 relatives and close friends.
After congratulations, delicious
wedding dinner was served.
The bride wore white messaline,
with shadow lace draperies, and the
groom wore the conventional black.
The bride has grown to womanhood
in our community, and Is we'll known
by all. She is of sweet disposition,
we'll fitted to adorn the home of the
man of her choice. The groom, a
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Farnham
of Ross is prosperous young farmer.
After a short visit with relatives In
Dallas Co., they will be at home to
their friends on a farm near Gray,
after March LIST. They were the re-
cipients of many lovely and useful
presents.
They start on life's journey togeth-
er, amid the congratulations and best
wishes of all their friends. A very in
teresting feature Of the wedding was
that 1t occurred on the 38th anniver-
sary of the marriage of Mr.. and Mrs.
H. w. Duvall, parents of the bride.

THE NATIONAL WEEK OF
SONG FOR SCHOOLS

The week including Washington's
birthday has been decided upon for
the National Week or Song. In this
country we wish to give recognition
also of Lincoln's birthday. So in. our
exercises of that week, let us not for
get the Great Emancipator" Many
of the schools in this country will
celebrate the birthday of these great
men. Let the schools sing, the COM
munities sing, let us all sing We
hope we can have the Community
Songs that they are having in some
of our states. Yes, let US sing and let
us not forget to give thanks that we
live in America and surely let US no,
forget to pray earnestly to Almighty
God for our suffering brothers and
sisters across the water in whatever
country they may be. Teachers, II is
to be hoped you will not fail to give
some recognition of this week and
try to send home some lessons of real
patriotism. Ella M. Stearns, Co. Supt.

SPECIAL ELECTION SOON

The citizens of Audubon should not
lose sight OF the importance to the
whole community OF the election to be
held the 18th of this month. The
question to be voted on at that time
Is whether the town shall issue
$4,000. worth of bonds for the pur-
pose Of extending the water mains Of
Audubon. A part of the funds will
probably be used to replace some Of
the mains which have been in use
for many years and are not in good
condition. The matter has been very
thoroughly discussed and consider
ed by the Town Council and they de-
cided that as matter Of equity and
justice to all taxpayers the water
system should be so extended that
every one who desired would have
access thereto without being requir-
ed to lay private pipes for long dis
tances. 1t is the intention of the
council to lay private mains in every
street which has been traversed by
the sewer SO that the sewer user will
be able to connect directly Herewith.
This plan was very earnestly recon-
mended by the sewer engineer, Mr..
Edquist, and has been followed by
the council. All the properly of the
town which is plated must bear its
share of the water taxes and there
are many properties which have no
access to the city water and 1t re-
quires very liberal statement or
the facts to say that they are with
in the fire protected district. Gu,
present water system has been built
by piecemeal and was not the result
of any comprehensive plan. Conse-
quently we have all kinds of mains
and connections and prior to last
year there was no complete circuit
in the whole system; every end was
what is known as a dead end", in
other words, there was no circula-
ton save when water was being
drawn. Water experts say that any
system to be thoroughly safe and eff
ficient should have complete cir
culating system. The plans now on
file call for connections of practi-
cally all parts and an elimination of
so far as is possible, all dead ends.
We believe that 1t is to the inter-
ests of the town and its people that
this measure be carried out.
A Taxpayer.

Our recent experiences with Ger
many with regard to her policy of sub
marine warfare should be enlighten-
ing to the more ardent opponents to
preparedness. The statement of Am
bassadOr Gerard, to the effect that
Germany thought we were bluffing, is,
in itself, evidence that our relations
with other countries are affected by
what they think we would do about
any matter under discussion, which
presumes that we would be able to do
something.
If whether or not we would act has
any influence on international affairs
it is not unreasonable to assume that
whether or not we could act would
be matter for consideration. 1t is
as likely that another nation would
take advantage of our inability to
fight as readily as of our unwilling
ness 10 fight.

The waist department has been
very rude at Williamson's. 1t has
pushed and showed and crowded other
departments clear off the shelves and
around the corners. 1t has grown so
fast that it is practically unruly in
its conuct and threatens to put sew
eral adjacent departments to flight
this spring. Talk about capturing the
enemy's trenches. The waist depart
ment has seized nearly the whole
works on one side of the big ready
to-wear department; and it has got
the whole battalion on the run.
Coats, however, have refused to
any honors to the aggres-
siye waists. More and better coats
are sold at Williamsons than at any
other place in the Palouse country.
Last week coats were sent to buyers
in Spokane. Think of that And along
with the order went a corset and two
waists.
