that will Do your heart good q have

work and do something worth while.
There are several nice houses here to
my credit, and they are all well built
and substantial" +t, 10.
1t is worth while to love our work
so well that we will not want to quit

pride that is not measured by the

Postmaster Crammette of Aberdeen,
Wash, the Washington Post states.
"The government itself is to blame
for this cry, because it has shown
anything but businesslike methods in
the construction of many of its
buildings.
Take, for instance, the new post
office at Aberdeen, which is now un-
der construction. The limestone that
is being used is being shipped to
Washington state all the way from
Indiana, because Indiana limestone
is called for in the specifications, and
yet we nave quarries in Washington
state that produce just as good a
quality of stone as is found in the
Hoosier state. The specifications
also call for southern pine for the
floors, and large quantity of this
pine has been sent diagonally across
the continent from one end to the
other-that is, from Florida to
Washington-to build the floors of
the new post Office. Yet we have in
Washington better quality of pine
flooring, the Douglas fir, which is
not only preferred by builders, but
which has proved its superiority for
this work. The government, how
ever, has to go 10 the expense of ship
ping material four thousand or five
thousand miles just because someone

EAST CLAIMS BIGGEST CAT
Brownie corrivean o. Roxbury, Mass.
Woman, Weighs Forty
Pounds.

Brownie is supposed to be the big
gest pet house cat in New England.
Brownie weighs forty pounds and
he is as big as a man round the
waist, that is, he's as big as some
men and a whole lot bigger than the
ordinary cat. Brownies exact waist
measure is thirty inches, and within
that vast feline circumference beats
great feline heart that is true blue
to Mrs. Alice Corriveau Of Roxbury.
Brownie is a coon cat and his
tremendous avoirdupois was not built
up on too much food. He eats light
ly twice day with a drink Of
warmed milk night and morning.
He refuses cold milk or water.
This winter while his mistress was
visiting several weeks in New York,
Brownie boarded at the Angel Me-
mortal Animal hospital of the s. P.
c. A. Mrs. Marion P. Frost, who
has charge of the pets boarding de-
partment of the hospital, says
Brownie is positively the biggest cat
she has ever seen-and one Of the
best.
Mrs. Corriveau intends to enter
her Brownie, who is nine years old,
in the next cat show in Boston. If
they have any heavyweight class in a
cat show, the management might
just as well mail the blue ribbon
to Brownie Corriveau now and have
that much off their minds.-Boston

IDAHO BOY MADE
CENSOR OF NEWS
AT THE BORDER
Important Duty Assigned to
First Lieutenant Otto l..
Brunzell, Native Son of
Owyhee County.
(staff Correspondence

Emmett, April 15.-First Lieutenant
Otto L. Brunzell, a native son of Idaho,
having been born near Silver City in
Owyhee county in 1879, has the distinc-
ton of being the first officer named as
censor of American army news on the
Mexican border. He is the first Amer
lean censor to say what news concern
ing the movements of the army shall
be withheld from the public. He is q
member of the Twentieth infantry sta
toned with the army at Columbus, N.
M.
First Lieutenant Brunzell is grad
uate of the College of Idaho at Cald-
wen. and later graduated from the
University of Idaho at Moscow. From
his boyhood up he always had the
army in view, and kept the army In
view throughout his school years at
the College of Idaho and the Univer-
sity of Idaho. He received his ap-
pointment to the United States mill
tary academy at West Point from
United States Senator Shoup. He
graduated from West Point in 1904
For a number of years he was sta
toned at Fort Russell, Wyo. and for
three years served in the Philippines
having returned from there in June,
1915.
Lieutenant Brunzell is said to be the
only native born son of Idaho who, as
a graduate of West Point is now in
active army service. After the Mexi-
can trouble is over it is expected he
will be stationed at Fort Douglas at
Salt Lake.
His parents, Mr.. and Mrs. ]. M
Brunzell, are living at Brunzell, Owy-
hee county, where Mr.. Brunzell has
been the postmaster for % years. They
are among the oldest settlers in Owy-
hee county. They naturally take a
justifiable pride in the steady prog
ress their son is making in Uncle

.SAXONS HAVE PART
IN VILLA CHASE
FL Paso Dealer Donates
Cars to the Quarter
master Corps.

Saxon motor cars are playing a part
In the chase of the United States
troops after Pancho Villa, bandit and
Mexican revolution leader.
Just as the sturdy race which gave
them their name always played a prom.
inent part in the warfare of the Brit
ish Isles and the northern part of
Europe, SO are the motor cars giving
their best to the service Of Uncle Sam
along the sluggish Rio Grande. At FL
Paso, Tex, where a large number of
troops have been stationed since the
border mobilization in 1918, three Sax
on motor cars were sold to United
States army officers before the pursuit
of Villa and they were used by the Of
ficers for trips about the border.
First Lieutenant Guy H. Wyman of
the Eighth cavalry is the owner of a
Saxon Six and Second Lieutenants
welton NJ. Modisette and William A.
Robarg of the Fifteenth cavalry both
have Saxon Four roadsters.
Cars Pressed Into Service.
When the United States decided to
enter Mexico in pursuit of Villa and
the border was thrown into fever of
excitement, these three officers found
a practical use for their motor cars in
patrol duty and messenger service in
and about Ell Paso The cars were
pressed into service because they COW
cred ground faster than a horse and be-
cause the sand and mesquite of the
border country offered no obstruction
| to them.
| At the same time F. o. Gavin, Saxon
dealer at FL Paso, placed three other
| machines at the service of the govern
ment. He took cars from his stock for
this purpose and offered them to the
army officers. Mr.. Gavin hesitated a
bit at doing this but finally decided to
| give them without consulting the fac
| tory. When he wired what he had done
he had the unqualified approval Of III.
w. Ford, president and general manag-
er of the Saxon company
Mr.. Ford is strong believer in pre-
paredness and has himself taken an
active interest in the movement for
military training in this country. He
assured Mr.. Gavin that the Saxon COM
pany stood ready to help the govern
ment in its great task of supplying the
flying column Of General Pershing.
The cars which were loaned to the
army were all Saxon Skies and they
have found ready use in the quarter
master corps. One of them is being
used daily by major of that depart
ment and it has Travelled hundreds of
miles in the last two weeks.
The sturdy construction of the Saxon
motor cars makes them particularly
adaptable to the rough roads and
prairies of the border country, accord
| ing to Mr.. Gavin. Their light weight
permits them to travel through the
sand and their mechanical perfection
has given them reliability that is
needed for this sort of work. Except
for the motor truck companies there are
few motor cars being used by the
forces now in Mexico. The country
makes them less practical than horses
for messenger work. On the border the
motor car iG feasible and Saxon has it's
place It the top among the types in
use.

While there may be a numbes' of

the mileage 1t question whether
the additional expense is offset by the

1t is reasonable to assume, however

Would not advise using any foreign
