at the morn: mornings at seven; the |
hillside's dew-pearled; the lark's on
the wing; the snail's on the thorn;
Gods in his heaven-all's right with
the world
Spring has waved its magic wand
over Southern Idaho and changed
the alfalfa fields into emerald car
rets: has awakened the sleeping buds
with its tenderest caress and perfum-
ed the breezes and To- its halo is over
everything. and there is something
seems to say. Winters had its day"
The quiet of our neighborhood was
broken by the peal of wedding bells
last week when the marriage OF Miss
Maldin and Mr. Ricketts, was beauti-
fully solemnized by Mr.. Fletcher in
the village church where, after the
ceremony. the young people were en-
tertained at the hall. Best wishes
and congratulations attend the bride
and groom.
A great wave of sympathy for Mr..
and Mrs Hoffman of Jerome thrills
every heart in our community over
the sad drowning of their little son
and we are glad that the body could
be found and given to the parents to
tenderly lay away.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lynch Burks and
Messrs. Robert and Norwood Burks
Iax OF
Burks last week.
Mr.. and Mrs. Walburn attended the
Methodist church in Jerome on
Mothers Day
Mr.. and Mrs. Brayton and Mrs.
Reed attended services at the Metho-
dist church in Jerome on Mothers
Day. Mr.. Fletcher preached very
fine sermon and We wish that every
young man in the community could
have heard it, He preached on one
of the sublimest subjects, Mother"
for it is mother who enfolds the lit
tie lives with love and tenderness, as
a fragrance and so softly lines the
home nest and makes of 1t a haven
of rest"
We hope to induce the ministers
of Jerome to preach for us during
the summer months in the church
here, which has no regular pastor.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lynch Burks, Mr..
Dick Burks and Mrs. Reed dined with
Mrs. Adams on Sunday and in the af-
ternoon Mr.. Burks took the party in
Blue Lakes. The grandeur OF the
canyon simply overawes one on 60
ing down into it. The apple orchard
all abloom with the pink and white
petals falling all about US as sweet
as the gardens OF the Alhamb bra,
while the Blue Lakes like jewels nes-
tied in its heart.
Our people are very much inter
ested in the Chautauqua to be held
in Jerome and hope to be able to at
tend it all the time. but the farmers,
are as busy as the bees and perhaps
will not feel they can stop for a day
Chautauquas, i think, are real edu-
Gators and most entertaining. There
fore all should strive to make 1t a
success by going so that we can be
assured of 1t coming another year.
You perhaps have heard of Sou
thern hospitality and the welcome
filled homes there but nowhere have
! found warmer hospitality than in
some OF the homes here. The day
We arrived, so bitter cold. we stopped
at Mr.. Atwood's beautiful new home
and were so warmly welcomed, re-
freshed and sent on our way inspired
with the welcome given US by our
host and hostess. Since then we have
been entertained by the host and
hostess of the Idan-Ha, whose charm
ing home is like an oasis in the des-
ert here, so welcome filled, so ever
flowing with hospitality. Mr.. and
Mrs. Brayton seem to delight in open
ing their charming home to theii
friends and neighbors and all with
whom they come in touch. Theil
lives seem an Interpretation OF the
golden rule. Mr.. Brayton's most gra
cious act since coming to Idaho is
we think. the establishing of water
ing trough right at his gate. wher,
fresh water is pumped each day from
his well to furnish water for tn,
stock and sheep of his friends, neigh
bors and the wayfarer and strange
within his gates. This seems veril.

to those about him. IT'S this tina

ing of oneself to sweeten, to brighten
