Chas. H. Butler is spending a few
days in town with his wife, formerly
Miss Ruth McCammon, at the Mccain

in the next draft from Stevens county

come any time between the LIST and
10th of September. He is perfectly
willing to 60 and do his part downing

The delegation of Orovilleans who
made an auto trip to the coast a fort
night ago, composed of DR.. and Mrs.
d. H. Lewis, Mr. and Mrs. s. B. Star

Fred c. Hart and Mrs. Robert Evans,
returned home the latter part of last
week via the railroad. 1t seems that
when they arrived on the coast they
found such demand for automobiles,
and such a shortage OF machines,
that they were able to readily dispose
of their cars at most attractive
figures. The three cars were sold
and new ones will be purchased so
soon as substitutes can be received
from the east.

TELLS ON THE KIDNEYS
Pullman People Have Found This tC

The strain of overwork tells on
weakened kidneys. The hurry and
worry of business men, the heavy
lifting and STOPPING of workmen, the
women's household cares, tend to
wear, weaken, and injure the kid

the poison from the blood and the
whole body suffers from the waste

SENIORS PRESENT
BONDS TO COLLEGE
Vice President Waller Accepts FLAG
for College From Stevens Hall
President Holland Accepts
Accepts Bond

The senior gift to the college was
announced Tuesday at the last chapel
of the year. Leslie Kienholz, presi-
dent of the senior class, presented a
800 Liberty Bond to Vice President
Waller, who represented the alumni
building fund. In pdesenting the
bond Mr.. KienhOlz explained that the
class wished to do something in ac-
cordance with the spirit of the times
and that it had decided to present
Liberty Bonds to the alumni building
fund, feeling that it would thus be
serving the country and the college
at the same time. Vice Presiednt
Waller thanked the class and compli-
mented it on the wisdom of the
choice in buying Liberty Bonds at
this time.
Miss Varian Carpenter, represent
ing the girls of Stevens Hall, pre-
sented the flag which has stood on
the right of the stage for the last few
weeks. President Holland accepted
the flag with very appropriate re-
marks of the significance of the flag.
1t is not the material in the flag
that makes it of value, he said, but
the sufferings and sacrifice and hard
ship endured by the founders of the
country that make the flag sacred.
He commented on the increased re-
spect with which the American peo-
pie regard the flag now.
A number of college songs were
sung and a few yells given, after
which the seniors, who appeared in
cap and gown, were allowed to pass
out for the last time.

Washington Joins Ranks

long ago Joined the ranks of the

functions, but non-commisisoned Of
ficers and privates could do as they
chose about the matter.

The new ruling will affect the old

farewell by Miss Luella Hopton i'm

TRACK TEAM AGAIN
WALLOPS IDAHO
Wind, Hail, and Rain Unable 10 Mar
the Determination ug Boilers
Men To Bring Home the Ba-
con--Irying High Man

con--Irving High Man
In track contest featured chiefly
by the rage of old Jupiter Pluyius
and his associates, the University OF
Idaho track squad last Saturday af-
ternoon went down to defeat at the
hands of the Washington State Col
lege cinder path athletes for the sec
ond time during the season, the win
ners thereby annoxing the conference
track title.
w. s. C. led the field in all but a
few very short periods of time, and
when the smoke of the battle had
cleared, and Captain Schactler and
his men were ready to wash the mud
of victory off their feet, the w. S. C.
team was holding down the long end
of a 1853 score. All dope was there
by spilled, as the least conservative
of dopesters regarded a bigger w.
S. c. victory than that won the pre-
ceding Saturday on the Idaho field
almost an impossibility.
A change in the tactics of Boilers
men was apparent in Saturday
meet. While w. S. c. took no less
than 10 first places in the meet at
Moscow and won mainly by virtue
of the abundance of fiye-point marks,
the team was not forced to rely
wholly on these points in Saturday
victory, as more men were entered,
and the majority of second and third
places easily fell into their hands, as
we'll as seven first places.
SchaCtler Stars
Captain Roy Schactler, performing
in his last meet for w. S. c., was
second high individual point winner
of the meet, 12A points being reg
istered by the speedy W. S. c. track
leader. Irving of Idaho, led was 49,,
while Jenne of w. S. c. was third,
with II tallies. Moe and Captain
Richmond of Idaho, and Ratchford
of W. S. G. tied for fourth place, each
having 10 points to his credit.
Schactler took first in the 440,
second in the 22O and century, and
finished the meet and his valuable
services on the varsity track squad
when he trotted in to the tape from
the relay amid cheers from the many
w. S. c rooters who had stayed with
the athletes through wind, hail, and
rain.
Ratchford again came through
with the calculated 10 points, being
unsurpassed in the half and the mile
runs. His running mate, Perry,
easily took second place in both
events, defeating Luttrop of Idaho
by good number OF yards in both
races.
Richmond, the Idaho captain and
veteran, was performing in great
style. negotiating the century in the
fast time of 101 and the 220 in %
flat. Captain Schactler ran a worthy
second to the Idaho speed merchant,
losing both events by inches.
The slow time registered in most
events was caused by the sogginess of
the track, which made the work of
the competing athsetes more like the
labor of mud horses than what it was
intended for.
