most inviting place tor campers and tourists
to spend their vacation and enjoy nature in
all her glory.
Mount Hyndman, the highest peak in
Idaho, which is about l3, 900 fe I, is found
within easy reach of the end OF tine railroad
at Kerchum. The wild and groresque
mountain scenery on all sides leads travel
in Switzerland. There are three rivers of
inestmable value for irrigation in the val
leys, they are the Salmon, the Boise, and
the Payette. These streams, together with
number of smaller ones, swarm with
trout and other game fish. Which is also
equally true of the lakes-some sixty in
number. The Reddish, found in bu, few
places in America, is common here. And
after which the largest of the lakes is
named.
The Chinook and Colorado river salmon
ascend the streams by shooting the rapids
and leaping The falls. until they reach their
favorite spawning grounds in the head wat
ers of the Salmon river in the Sawtooth
mountains of Idaho, more than !, 600 miles
from the sea-. And for those who wish to
hunt big game, there is no need TO go
to the forests of Canada, for these play
grounds afford ample opportunity for the
Nimrod. Among the wild animals to be
found in this section are the mountain sheep
and goat, elk, moose, antelope, deer and
bear, including the silver tip, cinnamon,
the brown and the grizzly bears.
There is no excuse for any one who is
out for pleasure trip, TO not enjoy his
outing to the fullest extent, on any one
of the Fairgrounds that Uncle Sam has
provided for his immense family, where
nature takes you by the hand and helps
you on the road to good health under the
shadows Of the snow-capped mountains.

In Autumn

Now the sassafras is golden,
And the nipples crimson dyed.
While the blushing of the beeches
Se,s aelow the mountain-slde.
Now the goldenrods have faded
To a tint of sober gray,
Where their royal banners faunted
BY the dusty travelled way.
Open chestnut. burs are falling
On the grasses growing sere,
And the hollow winds are calling
Through the chambers of the year.
In the lowlands smoke of asters,
Hillside pastures brown and bare,
GhostIy this.le-down a-drifting
Though the hazy MONDAY air.
So TIE woodlands drop their glory
Royal vesture, robe and crown;
And the red leaves lisp story
In the still air falling down.

A Child's Thanks

For all the happy days I've had,
For all the hours that I've been glad,
And every hower picked in spring,
And every bird that heard sing,
For all the sunshine and the rain
That made the summers loss and gain.
For all the school I've struggled through,
For Saturdays and Sundays, TOO.
For peace and honor, for the good
Our country stands for-and has stood
For those love and hold most dear
And all my friends both far and near
For home, and food, and care. and clothes,
For days delight, and nights repose,
For every single lovely thing
That freigh,s my precious mem'ry string
I'm thankful as a child can be;
Thanksgiving Day means this to me,
And when l stop TO think, it's clear
I'm thankful for the whole bright year

Lifters and Leaners

There are two kinds of people on earth
to-day,
Just two kinds of people, no more, ! say;
No, the rich and the poor. for to count a
mans wealth
You must first know the state of his con-
science and health;
Not the humble and proud, for in life 5
little span
Who puts on the vain airs is not counted
man;
Not the happy and sad, for the swift
flying years
Bring each man his laughter and each
man his tears.
MOI The two kinds of people on earth
Are the people who lift and the people
who lean.
Wherever you 60 you will find the
worlds masses
Are always divided in just the two
classes.
And, oddly enough, you will find, too,
wean
There's only one litter to twenty who
lean.
In which class are you? Are you easing
the load
Of overlaxed lifters who toll down the
road,
Or are you the leaner, who lets others
bear
Your portion of labor and worry and
carer

Chautauqua Report

The Chautauqua Circle held its fourth
regular meeting for the 1915 season in the

Mr. J. S presided over the meeting. The
roll call disclosed all members present and
President Mr.. ]. S. stated that there were
at present thirty-three active members, and
many Others seeking application for men,

be read at the next two consecutive meet
ings.
The first paper, subject: Salesman
Ship by Mr.. c. R. S., in which the au-
thor covered eight important factors in
salesmanship was very instructive. MIR. c
R. S. delved deeply into the science and
art of salesmanship and his diction and de-
livery were excellent. This subject gave
cause for considerable discussion. especially
on the so called order-taker which was very
ably solved by Mr.. F. c., who also has
had considerable experience in the craft of
professional salesnanshiP. Mr.. S. E. C's.
enlightened talk was also very interesting,
in fact, the subject was quite thoroughly
th,eshed out. Mr.. c. r. S. has made
salesmanshp his profession for almost
twenty years and his actual experience has
taught him that craftsmanship is the biggest
influence on life today for it has given US
our education and made possible the high
standard of living which we have today;
and to quote Henry Ford, the greatest auto.
mobile king in the world. craftsmanship,
after all, stands for sales, science and sam.

The next business on the program was
quite surprise and a real treat. One
could easily see by the smiling coun,enance
of the President in introducing the Quar-
tette that our much sought-for mission had
''Sweet Cider Time, When You Were
NJ ne,' with sweet melody and harmony,
to which the Circle heartily applauded, and
10 which Mr.. S. d. our noted tenor re-
sponded very swee,ly with "River Shan
non.'
This new feature and privilege is greatly
appreciated and welcomed by the Circle,
for it gives them thrill AID greater enthu-
siasm, thus making it more of an entertain
ment by combining the social with business
topics; also evoking a deeper interest in
making ours a more progressive chautauqua.
The second paper, subject: emperor
William of Germany" by Mr.. E. E. E.,
in which the writer traced back into history
to show why the Germans are fighters. and
what and who started them. Also gener-
al history of the Kaiser and the men back
of him was given. This paper also gave
considerable discussion which was both in
,eresting and very instructive, and doubly
so, because of the great war.
the Cri,ic was next called upon, and he
gave a very pleasing report, and saying
"the Quartet,e was elegant" and he won
dered why it was no, started before.
There being only few moments left be-
gore closing, the President was obliged to
postpone Mr.. F. BIS paper until the next
meeting saying he was very glad that we
had fine Quartette and would expect
song at every meeting. Adjournment.

about somebody of the name of Anne
AS the song was repeated at irregular
