Willie Minor met with a serious
accident last Thursday just after
noon which resulted in the loss
of the little finger on his left
hand. Willie had climed on the
windmill tower about eight feet
and was going to look into She
supply tank to see about the
water and leaning ont from the
tower put his, knee against a
brace. The brace br.ke and he
fell. the ring that he was wear
ing on this finger caught on the
tower and his weight was sus-
pended on that finger with the
result that the flesh was all torn
off. Drs. Powers and Patterson
amputated the finger close to the
kuuckle joint and he seems to be
getting along al right ut this
time.
Willie waa formerly Of the
north east part Of this county.

We attended the show at the
school house Monday night given
by home talent, the school house
was crowded to its utmost. The
play was superb, the music fine,
and the players acted their part
to perfection, it would be a.hard
matter to say which player acted
their part the best. They all did
their parts so well that anyone
would ihave thought them pro
fessionals. What we need here
is good opera house so when
anything of this kind comes up
they will have a good place to
stage it and plenty of room for
the players to do their part of
the work, aud the audience have
plenty of room. the plays given
by our local talent are being her
aided over the country, and our
farmers are coming in in their
automobiles to attend these plays
after their days work in the field.

showed that he or she was game
and their interest in the game at
hand was so keen that onlookers
were filed with such admiration
as to give them the very best of
attention.
The eighth grade spelling was
especially interesting. Nearly
every contestant was perfect on
the list Of three hundred words
given them in the district con-
tests. Then came the real test in
spelling. Several went down on
the first twenty-five words, but q
few were determined to stay.
Finally only three were left, then
after using about all the spelling
books in the school building.
Prof. Sadler suggested the die
tionary. It seemed that nothing
would stop them. Even at the
end, it was fatigue and not their
inability to spell that downed the
two and left a winner.
Miss Ethel Boyd was the hon
ored one, and she deserves to be
called the champiOn Speller of
our schools.
The spelling was indeed fine.
but we must not omit the arith-
metic. Add! Subtract! Multiply!
Divide! Ready. Begin! 2,49,?
TX 4,s36, 479, 4s3, Finished!
1t was exciting and interesting
as we'll as instructive, and when
the dust had rolled away, Master
Harold Melton, of First View.
was crowned the victor of the
Eighth grade, with mark of
one hundred per cent.
The spelling was good, the ci-
phering made it better. and on
top of this the ladies served a
basket dinner in the Domestic
Science room that helped to make
the day. the best that ever good,
intellectual people could wish for.
Those who are interested in
our public schools do not hesitate
to say that this is the biggest
step ever taken in the county to-
wards drawing the school boards
parents, teachers and pupils into
one big circle of harmony, lead
ing to the Standardization of our
schools and the betternent of all
concerned.
We do not know who deserves
the most praise, but we are go
ing to venture that our county
superintendent has done her
share, and that the school boards
have done their share. and that
the parents have done their share
and that the pupils have done
their share, so if the holding of
an annual spelling, arithmetic, or
reading contest does not become
a permanent institution. it will
be the fault of the uninterested
person alone.
In conclusion we will say that
the scholars (even those who did
not VIM, deserve much credit,
for they tried their best, and had
they been before their own school
they would not have failed.
That is what these contests are
for, to educate them, and have
them come before the public and
tell what they know and not get
illustrated just because there are
strangers present. Keep up
courage, and success will crown
your efforts.

Last Friday evening Mr.. and
Mrs. Roy Post, Of Oriska, had
the misfortune to lose all their
household goods and building by
fire, also their little three year
old baby boy. 1t seems that the
baby had gone to sleep and the
mother laid him on the bed, and
went out to look after some
chores and when she was return
ing she discovered the house was
on fire. She ran to the house for
her baby, but the fire had made
such headway that she dared
not venture in, but Mr.. Post
did but could not find him
where he had been left. After
the fire his body was found in
another part of the building bad
ly burned. 1t is supposed the
fire was caused by an incubator
which was in the house. The re
mains were brought to Cheyenne
Wells last Saturday and inferred
in the cemetery at this place.
The bereaved parents have the
sympathy of all in their deep af-

CARELESSNESS
CAUSE OF fire

Carelessness and neglect were two
causes which combined to start dis
astrous downtown fire at 1928 Fort
street this morning in the S. Harada

ages resulting.
The Central fire department, just a
block up the street, was quickly on
the scene when the alarm was turned
in about $50 o'clock and prompt ac-
ton kept the flames from spreading
to the Yokohama curio Gtore, mauka,
and the Moto Kimura florist shop,

The flame crept across the rear and
entered the Honolulu Bazaar, where
not so much damage was done.

After the youngsters sores have
been healed and her health has been
