PoRTIA CLUE NEWS.

Pleasant surprises are some o
the joys of life, and the club pro
grams are replete with surprises, be
sides being an educational force In
any community. Next Monday at the
usual hour, the Home Economics
Committee with Mrs. Stoughton
chairman, will put on unique pro
gram and large attendance is de,
sired, not only club members but
lady and gentlemen visitors are cor
daily invited.
There will be an exhibition of Ia
Dor7saying devices, a daintily APP
pointed table and-but come and see.
4 The last meeting of the club was
delight in every way. One of the
surprises was to find that a very
new club member was so much in
terested in the first meeting of the
year that she made a poem out of
the actual days work and it was
read by the secretary. Surely the
meeting is not dry, or prosy when
1t can be arranged to poetic meas
ure The name was not given, but
ask Mrs. Bulmer about it.
/ The arrangement of the General
Federation report was all that could
be desired. Four of the six delegates
were present, each lady told a GER
tain part, SO there was no repetition
m ct fhttp Mo nttl1 In
began her part when the special
train left Seattle, who, what and
when delegates boarded the train :,
and all the incidents of the trip,
pausing at Niagara to tell about that
and at Albany where the party
boarded The Robert Fulton, when
Mrs. Moss took UP the story and
pictured the steamer and the cities
and historical places down to the
Convention city. Mrs White told of
the struggle to get into the Armory
building where the convention was
to be held. She also told of the in
ner inwardness of the schemes to
elect an eastern woman President
and how the west finally won out
and Mrs. Josiah Cowles of Califor
MIA was elected Mrs. Wilson told
of how the Convention, twenty thou
sand strong, for seven cents per got
round trip tickets to visit the great
inventor, Edison. She described his
palatial home and at last the wiz
ard himself, and when he said,'I am
much interested in Idaho,' she knew
that he really knew that group rep
resented Idaho. Mrs. McGlinchey
made very interesting story of
what she is not going to say at
Twin Falls, and perhaps when some
time the other two delegates report
she will give another talk to the
club
Bertha Stull5 Green, state legisla-|
tive chairman, desires the club to
study bill. that will be proposed to
the next legislature, concerning the
primary referendum and recall. It
will be taken up and discussed at
the state convention, at Twin Falls.
and delegates are requested to find
out what the club thinks about 1t.
Remember, Mrs Stoughton never
does things in half-hearted way
and that the next meeting merits a
house full.

The President himself has tried +

The President himself has tried to
appropriate for his own advantage
the sentiment of america first" The
Democrats have tried to make his sup
port an act Of piety, by adopting
"Thank God for Wilson,, as slogan.
Mr.. Hughes, with rare courage, frank
ness and penetration, is exposing the
f1imsy foundation for the claims of
Wilsonian infallibility. He is laying
bare record of extravaganza, parti-
sanship, sectionalism, incompetence,
wrongheadedness, vaccillation and in
sincerity which destroys the attempt
TO make joss out of the President.
The Democrats must come out of their
ecstatic trance and defend their stew
ardship. The President is to be put
on the stump. We are to hear some
thing beside Delphic prose poems.-

Political lettings.

The Houston Post reasons that II
was easier for its own beloved De
mocracy to endorse the Presidents
Mexican policy than to define 1t.
J While he was about 1t Senator
! James Hamilton Lewis also might
( have explained that the Rome that
was too proud to fight" died rather
disastrous death.
"In all fairness" asks the Boston
Transcript. Shouldn't the expense or
financing Carranza be borne by the
Democratic campaign committee?"
Democrats really haven't any OBJ
lection to big appropriations for army
and navy and internal improvements
They expect the Republicans = rustic
the revenue to foot the bills for the
next four years.
Hughes says he would like six
months to investigate the Administra-
ton, but the Administration figures
he's doing very well as it Is.
Yes, and the same policies that have
filled Judge Hughes and others with
"a deep sense of shame" have sent
many other Americans to their graves.
The President has changed his mind
about sending more troops to the bor-
der, thus running true to form.
When Tom Taggart talks economy
to them, It is time the Democrats
stopped their extravaganza.
The Hughes smile is beginning to
attract favorable attention.
President Entertains Five Progress
sives.-Headline. Others he simply
amuses.
Democratic papers chide Hughes be-
cause he says he is 100 per cent. a
candidate" The Wilson papers nat
urally prefer fifty-fifty candidate.
The President says he has no inter-
est In any political party, except as
an instrument Of achievement" II
that's 1t, then how did he happen to
select such a poor instrument as tho

EMPTY PHRASES INSTEAD
OF CONCRETE ACTION.

Not once has President Wilson
squareIy placed before the Am
erican people the question which
Abraham Lincoln put before the
American people in 1860; what
Is our duty2 Not once has he
appealed to moral idealism, to
the stern enthusiasm of strong
men for the right. On the con-
trary, he has employed every
Evolutionary device to Iuli to
sleep our sense of duty, to make
US content with words instead
Of deeds, to make our moral
idealism and enthusiasm evap-
crate in empty phrases instead
of being reduced to concrete
action.-From the speech Of Col.
Theodore Roosevelt, delivered at

Business the nation over is de
manding national prohibition. Care
full tests have proven that efficiency
is reduced by even the smallest in
diligence in alcoholic stimulents; the
drinker may think he is more eff
Gent but he is like the crazy man

thinks he is making tremendous
speed because his feet are moving
and the wheels are going round.
Why should not Idaho help bust
ness and the individual worker by
helping it's citizenship to the largest
efficiency. Vote for the Constitution
al amendment. Vote Yes.
The Booze peddier in Idaho is
one of the meanest men ON earth.
Anybody who puts him out Of bust

BASE BALL

day to get Elkton's scalp, and the way
they opened up in the first inning, it
looked as if they We're going to do it.
They seemed to take to "Joe" Clay
and put two runs across in the first
inning. That looked good to them
and Elkton rooters We're blue. But in
Elkton's half of that same inning the
home boys got busy with the stick and
rang up good, healthy tallies-and
that was different. Then things set
tied down into tirst-class ball game,
with Elkton holding the lead all the
way through and winning out by a 6
to 3 score. The fielding features of
the game were sensational catches by
Johnnie" Jones and Bump" Marcus.
