SCHOOL LANDS N
NORTH TO Be SOLD
Dates Set for Sales in Six
Counties Total Of $500
Acres to Be Disposed of
in January.

For the first time in three years state
school land will be offered for sale
in the northern part of the state I'M
der the auspices of the state land de-
partment. A total of $500 acres will be
sold there during the month of Jan
uary. Walter Daggett, deputy state
land agent, has been authorized to
conduct the sale.
Owing to the fact that prior to two
years ago but 10000 acres Of state
school land could be sold in any one
year, the tate has been limited in dis
posing of these lands. Most of the
sales have been held in the southern
part of the state. The act regulating
the sale of school lands was amended
permitting $4,000 acres to be sold annu-
ally. Under the increase the northern
Idaho lands will reach the market.
They are appraised as high as SIS an
acre and are said to be excellent for
agricultural purposes. All Of the land
will be auctioned to the highest bidder

Seattle, Dec. II, 1916.-An address,
signed by zoo business men, was pre-
scented to H. c. Henry by committee
from the Anti Tuberculosis League Of

pressing appreciation for his services

Mr. Treat and DIR. Willis were spokes-
men for the committee.
The address said in part:
Your course Of conduct, thoughtful
and considerable, while yet consistent
ly firm, has endeared you 10 us all
Your presence in the counsels of the
league always means hope and cheer,
both to the helpless and to us who
have shared with you in their care.
When you first came among us we
knew You as the successful man of
business, the builder and financier. AS
we learned to know you, you are the
man touched with the needs of your
fellows. Your wealth is a means to
an end-its use the alienation of dis
tress. Your ear is keen to the cry of
suffering, your feet do not falter in the
path of duty. Men absorbed in great
business responsibilities. as we know,
too often pay scant heed in a per-
sonal way to the unfortunates about
them. But you 60 in person to their
aid. These things, with other charac-
teristics which to the public are more
conspicuous, rank you pre-eminent
among your fellows.

The board decided to add consider

in other departments will be made as

The matter of grounds received the
consideration OF the board, and 1t was
referred to the president, P. l.. Harmed
of GAINESVILLE, and C. C. Hanson, who
met in Mr.. Hanson's office to arrange
for the work.
President Harmed says that the
grounds and driveways need attention
and improvement. He added that the
only question is as to whether a con
tract for the work should be awarded
to a contractor or whether 1t should
be done by R. B. Cash, superintendent

she found 1t agreeable to meet Mr..

able to talk to someone against whom
she was under no necessity OF being
on her guard. But at the same time, a
