Moscow Plans Big District

One-half of the $6,000,000 valua-
tion of the proposed new highway
district for Moscow and vicinity
lies in Moscow, according to an es-
innate made from figures given in
a table of the assessed valuation Of
all incorporated cities and villages
in Latah couty. compiled by Homer
E. Estes, county auditor. The total
valuation of real and personal prop
erty and of public utilities in Mos
COW, based on the 1916 assessment
rolls, is $3,127,1O
This means that should the pro-
posed highway district be formed,
Moscow would pay more than half
the cost of road improvement; but
all the money thus raised would be
spent in the vicinity of Moscow, in
stead of only small portion of it
being spent here and the remainder
at other places in the county at the
discretion of the county commits
sioners as under the present plan.
This phase should make the propo-
sition particularly appealing to
Moscow, as the money paid out by
Moscow for road improvements
would be concentrated within the
district Star Mirror.

May Sell Water System

The village council is seriously
contemplating the idea of purchas-
ing the water system and making
it the property of the town. DR..
Moser has signed up an agreement
to sell the plant for $500. A COM
mittee was appointed by the coun-
Gil to investigate the condition of
the plant and to report at an early
date. If the committee reports
favorably, and it is thought they
will, a bond election will be called
as soon as possible and the matter
will be put up to the voters of the
town.
The amount the town is now
paving for fire protection and for
water at the school house will
practically pay the interest on the
bonds and the town would have the
additional advantage of having
water for the park and for sprink-
ling the streets. 1t is estimated
that the bonds can be paid off in
not to exceed five years and after
they have been paid the water rates
can be placed at very low figure.

Masons Entertain

More than 100 people gathered
at the Fraternal Temple last Tues
day evening in response to invita-
tions sent out by Kendrick Lodge
No. 26, A. F. & A. M. The occa-
sion was in the nature of reunion
of the fraternity and it has been
customary to make the event an
annual affair.
The program was made up of the
following numbers: Flute solo.
Harold Thomas; cornet and from
bone duet, Glen Porter and O. E.
MACPHERSON; Reading, Miss Lola
Ware. An address by Dean FL
dredge of the University of Idaho,
on why l am a Mason" was very
much enjoyed and occasioned hearty
applause. He made many friends
in Kendrick. Past Grand Master
Francis Jenkins gave a talk in his
usual pleasing manner. His ad-
dress was short but full of interest
ing points concerning Masonry.
After listening to the program,
the crowd adjourned to the banquet
hall on the third floor, where Mr..
and Mrs. Brooke had prepared de-
lightful dinner. The tables were
fairly loaded with good things and
the service was everything that
could be desired.
After the banquet the lodge
room was turned over to those who
wished to dance or play cards. II
is needless to say that the rest o1
the evening was very much enjoyed
by everyone.
A number of Juliaetta and Ire!
people were present.

In his talk at the Good Roads
School at Moscow Wednesday morn
ing, DR.. L. l. Hewes made the state
ment that "gravel roads are cheap
er and as good as the best" He
cited the case of New Hampshire
which has three trunk roads made
of gravel and which carry the i'm
mense traffic of the northeastern
coast. These roads have proven
most satisfactory because they have
been built and maintained, not
worked and thereafter left to Prov.
idence.

Next Lyceum Number

DIR. Robert Sutcliffe will lecture
at the Grand Theatre next Friday
evening. This is the fourth num-
ber of the Lyceum course and prom
ises to be very interesting enter
tainment The subject of the lee
ture has not been announced but it
will be on a popular subject and
instructive.
Robert Sutcliffe was born in Eng
land. When but a lad he conducted
number of missions in hamlets
and villages. Because of his sue
cess in this line of work he was
placed in charge of one of the large
rescue organizations in the city of
London. DR.. Sutcliffe's audiences
were small at first but very soon
the building was packed each night.
News of the big work he was doing
reached Canada and he was called
to become Superintendent of evan
gelistic work in Charlottetown.
Six months after DR.. Sutcliffe had
taken his new position it was found
necessary to double the size of the
church edifce to accommodate the
crowds of people who came to hear
him.
From Canada he moved to the
New England States and became
pastor of several large and import
ant parishes. In the summer DR..
Sutcliffe gave Bible readings at
some of the big assemblies. He al
so served as Superintendent of
Schools and wrote for influential
newspapers.
During all these years he was
making a close study, both in Amer
lea and abroad, of social questions.
His intimate knowledge of these
matters is not so much the result
of reading as it is the outcome of
personal observation and experience.
His lectures on literary gems are
but so many windows through
which he invites, nay urges, his
audiences to look out upon life.
And then DR.. Sutcliffe came into
the lyceum. Although he has been
in the lyceum but two years he has
established himself and managers
have made a permanent place fol-
him.
He has an excellent personality
strong voice and a rare command
of the English language. What hi
says is the result of many years o:
practical experience and deel
thought. He presents his thought
? with a forcefulness that is postivel.
, invigorating.
DR.. Sutcliffe is popular becaus
he is interesting and instructive
and the hundreds of lecture engage
ments he has filled are concret
evidence of the fact that he "deliy
, ers the goods"

The last reports heard in regard
to the condition of Joday Long,
were to the effect that he is slowly
improving. While his condition is
still very serious. it is thought that
unless complications set in his re-

His Sensitive Soul.

George ChalliS. owner of q theater
in Muncie, Ind, believes that the crav-
ing for passes to shows becomes d ma
mia, and relates y case in point, ac-
cnrding to the indianapolis News. He
had been hesieged for weeks by man
for passes to show in the theator and
two or three times. just to get rid of
him, had passed him in, which only
seemed to make him the more il
siStent the next time, although Chal-
lis was under no obligation to him.
Finally the fellow struck Challis one
day when the latter was suffering from
the effects of poor house" the night
before, and, exasperated, he reached
down in his pocket and handing the
impOrtunfng one dollar, said, go
over there to the box office and buy
yourself a ticket like other people do"
Putting up, lis dignity ruffled and his
feelings apparently hurt, the other re-
piled, what do you take me fora
cheap skater" And then haughtily
walked away-with Challis' dollar in
his pocket.

Home Conversation.

Children hunger pcrpetualiy for new
ideas, They will learn with pleasure
from the lips of parents what they
deem drudgery to study in books; and
even if they have the misfortune to
be deprived of many educational ad
vantages they vii. grow up intelligent
if they enjoy in childhood the priv
ilege of listening daily to the CONVEX
satiOn of intelligent people. We some
times see parents who are the life Of
every company that they enter, dull,
silent and embarrassing at home among
their children. If they have not men
tai activity and mental stores Suffi-
Gent for both. let them first use what
they have for their own households.
A silent house is dull place for
young people, place from which they
will escape if they can. How much
useful information, on the other hand,
Is often given in pleasant family con-
versatiOn, and what unconscious, but
excellent mental training in lively So
cial argument; cultivate to the utmost
all the graceS of home conversation.

GERMANS BRIBED THE UMPIRE
Carl Emil Junck Tells How Teutons
Are Tricky in Other Ways
Than in War

Carl Emil Juncb, Il dye importer OF
Chicago, was talking about Germany.
THE German spirit today is tricky,
shifty and false he said. The Ger
mans today think it's clever to cheat.
Their war. with its violation Of every
war law and every international agree
ment. is cheating war.
Here is an illustration of the Ger
man spirit
"When l lived in Elberfeld l organ
lied a football team among the Fiber
field boys. Once when. the team was
to play a neighboring team, gave the
boys 100 marks to buy shoes, leg
guards or whatever would most help
them to win.
swell, they won, but their shoes and
leg guards were very old and shabby,
and l said to the captain after the
game:
"'Glad you licked 'em, though GER
tainly some of the decisions were close.
But what did you do with the money
l gave YOU:
THE captain answered with know
ing smile:
"You said, Herr Junck. that we
were to use the money in any way that
would best help us to win; so of course
we made a present of It to the UNI
pire."

Volcanoes Hottest on Surface.

Notwithstanding what schOolboOks
have said, it now appears that vol
cano is hottest on its surface rather
than below it. This is the conclusion
drawn by a scientist who has made ex-
tensive investigations i'll craters in Ha-
wait and has obtained samples of gases
and lava before they reached the air,
says Popular Mechanics Magazine.
Laboratory studies of these samples
make it appear probable that much of
the heat required to keep an open lava
basin in fluid condition is supplied by
the chemical action of the gases. From
these Investigations the scientist con.
cludes that in times Of great activity
the temperature at the surface OF e
volcano undoubtedly is higher thar
that below the surface,

What's the Use2

Il have been rejecting" said an old
timer, upon the case of the average
man, as his neighbors see him.
IF he is poor, he is bad manager
II he is prosperous, everyone wants to
do him favor.
IF he's in politics, it's for pork. If
he is not in politics, one can't place
him, and he's no good for his country.
IF he gives not to charity, then he's
Il stingy dog. If he does give, it's for
show.
IF he is active in religion, he is a
hypocrite. If he evinces no interest in
matters spiritual, he's hardened sin
ner.
II he shows affection, he's a sof:
sentimentalist. If he seems to care
for no one, he's cold-blooded
