Roman Bricks,

When the preparations for rebuild
Ing the Campanile. In Venice, were un-
dertaken the archaeologists were af-
forded an opportunity to make some
interesting studies of the bricks. 1t
was found that they had been used In
arches, Notifications. the tops OF walls
and IN other ways before they were
built Into the campanile and that they
were not Venetian but Roman bricks
These ancient bricks were made in
slices, for I'm many the layers could be
seen undisturbed, 1t is said that bricks
made this way can bear a greater
weight than modern bricks The bricks
examined were Of the first century
One of them bore the imprint Of q
horseshoe, which may prove that RO-
mans used horseshoe like ours, al
though 1t is generally believed that
their horseshoes were strapped on. not
nailed.

morrow, number of ladies of the club
enjoyed their first get-together of the
season last Friday afternoon when Mrs.
G. A. Green, president of the club, in
vited them to her home for Hoover

and needlework gave color to the after
moons discussion which dealt chiefly
with plans for Red Cross work; inter
esting and efficient economies of the
home, the hostess concluding the hours
" according to Hoover with tea and
cakes, delicious cakes made from very
simple recipes. The tea table was cen.
tered with silver candelabrum hold
ing tawny yellow tapers and surrounded
with graceful sprays of autumn vines
and leaves. Runners of the deep yellow

the table. Mrs. Frank Morris, vice

LEWISTON PAPER TELLS
Of FREE PRESS SALE
TRIBUNE PRINTS STORY ON THE
TRANSFER OF GRANGEvIILE
NEWSPAPER BUSINESS.

Inc Following item taken from the
Lewiston Tribune of September 20, per
talns to the sale of the Idaho County
| Free Press:
F. Mr.. and Mrs. j. G.. Safely, of
Moline, Ill.,, arrived in Lewiston YES
terday enroute to Grangeville, where
Mr.. SafIey will locate as editor and
| proprietor of the Idaho County Free
| Press, having just closed the purchase
OF the property from l.. A. Wisener
Negotiations for the purchase have
been in progress for some time and were
closed a few days ago by telegraph.
For three years past, Mr.. Safely has
been telegraph editor of the Moline
Daily Dispatch and is an experienced
newspaper man. In 1912 he was on the
staff of the Boise Statesman at Boise
and then entered the state immigration
bureau, handling publicity work. 1t
was while he was with this department
that the publication, The Dawn of
Plenty, was issued. During a period
OF his newspaper career, he found OPP
portunity to send year at the state
university in 1913 and 1914.
Mr. Safely, during his Identified
ton with the state immigration depart
ment, became thoroughly informed rel
ative to conditions in all parts of Ida
no and in entering the Grangeville and
Idaho county newspaper field he does
so with full information relative to the
situation. He is a young man, full of
enterprise and with an abundance of
confidence i'll the future of the state,
and it is assured that the Free Press
will be maintained at it's present splen
did standard
1.-The Free Press is pioneer publ
cation of the state and has throughout
its career occupied deservedly CON
spicuous place in the field of Idaho
journalism. The newspaper was found.
ed thirty-two years ago by the Hon A.
F. Parker, who gave to it his talents
as a writer and thinker. Some years
ago he sold the property to Mr.. Me-
Broom, who conducted the plant several
years when in 1907 it was acquired by
l.. A. Wisener. Four years ago, Mr..
Wisener was appointed postmaster at
Grangeville and recently received a
second appointments for four Years.
He has felt for some time that the de.
mands of his official duties denied him
opportunity to give that attention to
the Free Press that the publication de-
sell. -
Comment by Moscow Paper.
The Daily Star Mirror at Moscow has
the following to say regarding the
sale of the Free Press:
-. c. Safely, who attended the Uni
versity of Idaho in 1913 and 1914 and
who has been connected with the Mo-
line Qll.) Daily Dispatch for some time
past, has purchased the Idaho County
Free Press published at Grangeville,
from l.. A. Wisener. Mr.. Wisener ac-
quired the property in 1907 and has
since conducted one of the really good
weekly newspapers of the state. He
was appointed postmaster at Grangeville
under President Wilson and wasrreeent-
ly reappointed for four years. His
growing official duties led to his sale
of the Free Press. Mr.. Safely has had
varied newspaper experience and as he
is young man of vigor and ambition
he will no doubt keep the Free Press
up to its high standard.
