An exchange says: A number OF
our exchanges have been speculat-
ing en- what would happen if the
government took over the news
papers. Well, the first thing the
subscription price would be raised
about so per cent and the sheriff
would be kept busy chasing delin-
quents. The next step would be to
raise wages Is per cent and the
editors who hadn't had cent in
six months they could call their
own, would be placed on salary.
The merchants who fail to get their
ad copy in until press day would be
hauled up before the council OF de,
tense and our linotype man who
hired out for two weeks and quit
his job in a week would be sent tt
Leavenworth for about ten years as
a deserter. 1t looks like a gooc
proposition and we are for it.

The Potlatch country could fur


The Potlatch country could fur
nish some splendid farm products
for an agricultural exhibit this sea-
son. Potatoes and nearly all late
vegetables are above the ordinary,
both in size and quality. The writer
has never seen or heard of country
where such large variety of vege-
tables, fruits, grasses and grains
can be grown as right here in the
Potlatch. The editor of the Latah
County Press is even boosting the
raising of sugar beets in that local
ity. OF course they can be grown
here successfully and the same can
be said of almost everything else
that grows.

This wonderfully rich farming
country is gradually falling farther
behind every other progressive COM
munity in the land in the matter of
permanent road building. There
is 20 other country that needs good
roads any more than this. The
grades that have been used for the
past twenty-five years were all right
twenty-five years ago but it would
seem that where everything else has
progressed in such a splendid man.
ner, roads, the most needed i'm
provement of all, should be rebuilt
and made to conform to the require
ments of these modern times.
Leland and Cameron started fine
thing when they almost unanimous
ly voted to form a good roads dis
trict. Their further progress will
be watched with considerable in
terest. If the progressive people or
the Potlatch ridge bond the district
and build hard surfaced road t.
Kendrick, their nearest railroad
centre, it will be the beginning Of
lone of the greatest boosts this sec
tion Of the country has ever exper
fenced. Other ridges will fall il
line and build permanent roads al
soon as the ice is broken" Coco
roads districts seem to be the onl!
solution to permanent road build
ing and the natural topography O.
the country would indicate tina
each ridge will have to solve it
own problem. The resources of tn
various ridges are more than suffic
lent to warrant permanent road con
struction and it is only question
of a short time until farmers will
demand the organization Of goo'
roads districts.

The location of Kendrick is nat
ural beauty spot. The town itself,
could be made very slightly place
if every property owner would take
pride in putting his place in pre-
sentable condition. There are a
number Of old sheds around town
that ought by all means to be torn
down. They give the town ''poor
white trash" appearance that cannot
be remedled by the few individuals
who try to keep their property ur
to standard. A little cleaning ur
and a coat of paint will do won
dres tor place.

Letter From California

The following letter was written
to Guy Lewis from H. A. Walker.
who drove by car from here:
Los Angeles, Nov. 13.
well we have finally reached our
destination, which is in southern
California in the suburbs of Los
Angeles. Am working for an Over
land dealer. My car now registers
on the speedometer 6l6O miles and
was 34OO whenI left home. Have
been gone Sc days. Car worked
just fine, all the wayne trouble at
all. Used 2 gallons of oil for the
trip and while touring | averaged
26 and nine-tenths miles to the gall
Ion of gas.
We took in on our trip Portland,
Frisco, Los Angeles, San Diego,
Long Beach, Seal Beach, Venice,
Santa Monica and other places. At
all of the beaches you can see any
amount of bathers and they stay all
winter. We go to some beach every
Sunday.
have fair job and get 70 cents
an hour for hours. Living here l
think is a little cheaper. House
rent, with furniture, costs us $50
per month.
Say, talk about roads, you ought
to see them. From Frisco to San
Diego. nearly 500 miles, all pave
ment and just think of it-30 miles
speed limit! Over that means the
jug for from 80 days to 6 months
Awful. And believe me they know
how fast you are running too.
We are living in an orange
country, in fact the prettiest part
of California and we Travelled the
whole length of the state.

ship only when she is under steam.
She may for a while be coursed out
Of line, but she can be ruddered
into safe harbor. But steamless
ship can only be tossed by the waves
and at last cast upon the rock to
perish.
So is it with a man without moral
and spiritual purpose and energy
fleeing, not knowing where.
Everybody loves man with a
purpose; oh friend, be man, a man
impelled by pure and right motives.
Heed not to any plan to defraud
your brother, your home, your
church and your God. Let not your
better judgement be overcome with
evil and you will never have to flee
from man.
II. Finding God.
God is consuming fire to sin,
redeeming spirit to broken and a
contrlte heart. He never passes a
penitent sinner who is alone, for
saken in the world without extend
ing a vision to him. His word is
come to me with all your sins, come
with all your failures, come with
all your disbursements, come just
as you find yourself out in the dark
on the mountain, with only the
stars as your companions, come.
Seek me, call upon me, knock for
me and | will be found. Twill dir
ect you, l will make your life a sue
cess. This is Gods way of dealing
with men who have failed. He
saved Lincoln, Greenfield, Cough,
Bunyon, Gypsy Smith and Moody
and He will save you, dear friend.
But lest l forget, let US look for a
minute at this Jew, Jacob, who
found God. The very first thing he
wanted to do was to give God a
trade, one-tenth 1.-THE for the bless
ing. This was as it should be, give
back to God of his own, over which
He has made you Steward. He was
a generous giver. There are three
kinds of givers, the flint, the sponge
and the honeycomb. The flint must
be hammered and then only gives
chips and spark. The sponge must
be squeezed and then gives gener-
ously just as you squeeze. hard or
light. The honeycomb gives over
flowing with sweetness and gives al
ways cheerfully.
When we find God may we, Jacob
like, covenant to give God his
share. 1t is true his is day and
, time of giving, with the seven great
war causes, oh how we have been
giving, but do not forget the God
of heaven who gives you so bounti
. fully to give, give Him his 1.-THE
and you will have enough left tc
pay all your debts and obligations
too.
!, Find God, find Him now and to
. day covenant with him like Jcot
did. Do it now.
Let not the price of labor or pro
q ducts cause you to take away from
God that which is his own and you
\ will prosper and be happy.

Sermon by DR. Smith

Fleeing From Man-Finding God.
Text-"And Jacob went out from
Beersheba and Jacob awoke out of
his sleep and he said surely the
Lord is in this place." Gen. %: 10
and 16.
Jacob was failure and later be-
came success. 1t is almost as
difficult to be real failure as it is
to become real success.
Jacobs adviser. his mother, was a
very selfish INSCRIPTIONS person.
Had little or no regard for truth
or honesty, simply assuming that
any means justified the desire.
Eishonor. lying, deceiving, steal
ing all o. K with her only that she
win. Jacob thus in the hands OF
even his mother became a wretched
failure, an outcast and fugatiye
from justice.
Thus many men and women in
their hour of temptation become
loosers and must flee for their lives
yes fee-but where? From JUS
tice. being pinched, being haunted
and scarce know where to go or to
whom to go, they just aimlessly
go out into friendless world, hop.
ing against hope, at last weary
worn, sad and hungry lay dowr
any where to rest.
Then if God ever was believed in
it ever prayed to, for success OF
ever asked for mercy, then prayer
yes heart yearning prayer goes ur
to God and even then, God mer
