HEMORIAM

Roberta Jean Waite. the infant
daughter OF Kyle Waite, private at
Vancouver barracks, died Tuesday
morning at the home of its foster par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. Frank of Kimberly.
Mrs Waite, Robertas mother, died
during the early part OF June at Twin
Falls, and Mrs. Della Frank. sister of
Mrs Waite. Immediately adopted the
baby into her keeping
Mr.. and Mrs. Waite have a multi
tude of friends both in Twin Falls
and in Kimberly. And when Mrs.
Waite died, shortly following the
birth of little Roberta, grave love
went out from all for the little mother
less babe.
Mr.. Waite, who felt keenly the call
of his country, was constrained to en-
list his services for the cause Of hui
manity He bore the first great grief
patiently, but heavily and friends
await with anxious sympathy and sor-
row his second answer to the call of
his loved one, passed on before him.
Mr. Waite has been notified by tele-
graph of the death of his babe, and is
expected home soon.
Arrangements for the funeral ser
vices will be made later
Thus it is that little lives, their flu
ture unknown and only dreamed of by
fond parents pass into that great eter-
nifty, even against human judgment
and desires.
Whether the life was finished and
its work fulfilled or whether it was
caused to wither before the blossom
we do not know The tiny baby's
breath is as fragrant and truly bios
som in full bloom as the larger lily.
So perhaps a life so short and so
sweetly pure as little Roberta's so free
from the stains Of the world, and yul-
gar sin, and mems scOffings. was as
truly a life fulfilled, ready for the har-
vest as the life of the sage even of
that sweet old grandmother whole
life of four-score years is drawing to
its close.
Precious seeds of great importance
are often sown by little hands in a
very short time; and who knows or
dares to doubt that the few short days
of an infants life, now passed away
into immortality, have not brought
many nearer to the throne of grace,
into the kingdom of the father: and
that after all is the greatest work a
mortal man can do.

ALL DESIRING TO co ALLOW
ED TO LEAVE SCHOOL TO
GATHER FRUIT
Question Of Wages Is
Raised by Some
Boys Object to Working for $3.50
a day-Youthful Agitators Said
to be Showing Disposition to
Hurt Fruit.

All but about fifty of the local high
school students responded Tuesday OF
this week to a call from one of the
near by orchards, and obtained d
holiday from the school officials in
order that they might spend the day
picking fruit The call came from
the Pittman ranch, and most OF the
students responding were from among
the girls. School was not dismissed
but all who desired to go for the
purpose of working with the fruit
were given permission.
The necessity of food conservation
end of the prompt handling and pre-
serving of the products of the land in
the present crisis, is one of the main
burdens upon the mind of all people
in general and the students are quite
emphatic in their opinions concern
ing the matter Hence their eager
ness to supply the necessary help for
the fruit season.
Local orchardmen are complaining
against the attitude taken by their
youthful employees in regard to wages
and discipline. Recognizing the value
of labor in these times when so many
of the reliable men have gone into
the service of their country, most local
farmers have felt constrained to pay
as high wages as possible to those in
their employ, and as a result have
been paying even to their most youth
full helpers what might well be con
sidered under usual circumstances. a
good mans salary.
Just what kind of influence over
came some of the boys working in
some OF the local orchards close in is
hard to tell. but they showed an un-
mistakable spirit of dissatisfaction in
regard to their present income One
would imagine that $3.50 per day
would look pretty reasonable to the
average American boy, especially in
these times when the needs of the
country so demand his cooperation in
preserving the crops.
O. G. Zuck, in speaking of the mat
ter the first of this week complained
Of the impatience of his young en-
ployes What they do with their
money is hard to tell" said Mr. Zuck
Few of them can hardly wait until
Saturday night comes" Mr.. Zuck, al
so said that some of he Youngsters
who were engaged for picking and
handling the fruit in his orchard,
showed a remarkable spirit OF rebel
lion and downright meanness, injuring
the fruit, wasting their time, refus-
ing to work, and talking smartly to
the foreman. Finally it was consid-
cred necessary to discharge some Of
the most provoking, whereupon it was
soon discovered that the boys were
really striking or preparing to, for
higher wages.
An attempt is being made upon the
part of some fruit growers who have

ter received from them by Mr.. Ogg's
sister, Mrs. Noah Swearingen of Kim
berly, was mailed from Nebraska.
They are making the trip by automo-
bile. Seven years ago Mr.. Ogg made
visit to Kimberly and looked over
the Twin Falls tract, becoming so in
fatuated with the prospects of the
country, that he declared that as soon
as he could sell his farm in South Da-
kota he would come to Kimberly and
make that place his home. True to
his word after seven years, he has
sold his farm and is coming to live
on the Twin Falls tract. He will pur-
chase or rent as soon as he arrives.

ing of the surf at Waikiki, see the
plumy palms browsing by the shore, the
garlanded crags, and the leaping cas-
cades, and this music fills me with
the spirit of it's woodland solitudes. !"
A traveller writing to the New York
Sun from Honolulu says that every
one in Hawaiia can sing, that most of
! them play by ear, few of them being
able to read music; that Hawaiian
songs run TO harmony rather than
mere melody; that the singers glide
from one harmony to another-"deli-
cious chords" he calls them-and that
their hearts go into their songs-a
mist in their eyes when the song is
sad, but when the music rollicks their
eyes dance with their stamping feet.
