MAN MAKES GUN PLAY.

Last Tuesday evening about six
O'Clock excitement ran high for a
time in the neighborhood of the
Bancroft Hotel and Y. M. c. A. as
people were on their way home TO
supper. A scene appeared on the
vacant lot back of the Y. NJ c. A.,
that for a few minutes looked very
serious. Mr.. Austin Ayers, who with
his S-ypar old daughter have for
the past six weeks been boarding
at the D. B. Wilson home near the
"Y'', came from his work at the
usual time and when near the Post
Office saw at the rear of the VIII
son home his wife from whom he
has been separated since last spring,
and her sister and brother endsayor-
ing to make their escape with the
little girl who was screaming for
her papa and refusing to go, Mr..
Ayers ran around to the front of
the house, secured revolver and
soon appeared on the scene where
pitched battle with tongue lash
ing and flourishing of rocks and
fire arms took place in manner
that caused the on-lookers for a.
time to keep in the clear Finally in
reference was made by some of
the by-standers. Frank Golden, who
believing it wise to relieve the man
of his gun, grabbed him by the wrist
and by the help of others the gun
was taken away. The men were both
lodged in Jail and an investigation
made by County Attorney p Mon-s
roe Smock and Sheriff Hanigan. No
complaint was filed against any of
the parties. The child was given
over to her father and the other par
ties were discharged and told to-
leave town. Mrs. Ayers has filed
a suit for divorce in the Ada Coun-
ty Court where it will be decided as
to the custody Of the child. She and
her brother and sister have been liy- !
ing in Emmett since last spring.

MIGHT HAVE BEEN WORSE.

. John Hill had a little mishap last
Sunday evening while returning from
Church with his big new car load
ed with twelve people Just as he
was turning the corner by the
Ruth Moss place he met car
coming from the east and endeavor-
ing to miss the car, ran into a
telephone pole, badly damaging the
radiator and shaking up the occu-
pants of the car. However none of
-hem were hurt except small
child of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Hill.
who received quite a cut on the lip.
The accident might have been much
more serious if he had been running
at high rate of speed. 1t always
pays to keep your car under con-
troll at all places where an accident
might occur.

SCHOOL OPENING
LABOR SITUATION
SCHOOL OPENING IN HIGHER
GRADES MONDAY, OCT. |,
SHORTAGE OF LABOR.

! Schools will open in the sixth
gradc next Monday, but the seventh
and eighth grades and the higt
school will not bsgin until Monday,
October 1. The labor situation is So
abnormal that the packing house
managers unite in appealing for aid
until October l, if the prune crop
( is to be saved.
We must recognize that the do
ing of needful things with efficiency
is no small part of a good education.
If there is one thing the schools
need to emphasize more than an
other in these days it is the Cos
pei Of Work. No person, educated or
uneducated, has any right to be
useless in this old working world
The youth who will not gird up
his loins and do his share of the
worlds work will forever forfeit the
happiness which comes from a con-
seriousness of his usefulnes.
We need to change our views con-
cerning the purpose of education if
We have any noticn that education
is designed TO free us or our chill
dren from what are called, but mis-
called, menial employments. Educa-
tion is not to be regarded as insur-
ance against labor How will the
worlds work get done if education
takes men and women out of use
full and needful occupations and
makes them over into pseudo ladies'
and gentlemen of leisure? Educa-
tion should LESSEN the totality OF
fruitless drudgery in the world by
S curing more economic and intelIi.
gent direction Of human effort to-
ward fruitful results, but it is not
intended to release any one from
his share in the work that must be |
done if the world moves on.
If we idealize mere scholarship as
the only thing worth striving for /
and fail to emphasize the educative
value Of useful labor, the schQol
nay never hope for that cordial sym
Dathy and universal respect which
he public school should merit from
he practical man of affairs.
The prune crop Of this valley must
- taken care OF without delay or
much of it will be lost. Il
Let every young person in the
ommunity above sixth grade show
lis colors and his community spirit 4,
y presenting himself without de- 3;
ay either in the packing houses
r in the orchards for his share in I
he work that is now so necessary S
n this community, then enter school T

hat he has been of real use to his /

A MISTAKE,

A slight mistake occurred in set.
ting up the form for the Enterprise

seriously with some. The week prev.
ious We had an article headed AT
tention Yeomen" and last week the
same head was left in the form
mad notice to delinquent subscribers
to pay up was placed Immediately
under, which might be taken to
mean that we wanted the members
of the Yeomen lodge TO pay up.
