Inspired To oreatsr Activity.

The Sunshine Club of Denver or
ganized at the home Of Mrs. Mamie
Dosher (now Of Berkeley. California;
on January End, 1906, under the lead
ership of Mrs. Esther H. Morris, Of
2949 Stout Street, daughter of the late
James H. Hubbard, continues its good
work in the service It gives to hu-
manity and the carrying out of its
propaganda: The lifting Of the fallen
and the cheering Of the faint. Adher-
ing strictly to the truisms of the
pages of Holy Writ, HE that II great
est among you shall be your servant"
and void of any attempt at ostenta-
tfon, this little band Of workers for
more than twelve years has impressed
the community by individual as well
aid, comfort and restore those that
are in need and those that are fallen.
Working zealously and assiduously in
this cause, the members Of the Sun
shine Club are ever readyto do their
part whether in association with
others or otherwise, and cannot help
in doing justice to itself from men
tioning its untiring effort in the fol-
lowing, faithful service rendered by
Mrs. Josephine Cassells Of Nineteenth
and Ogden Street, a pioneer resident
Of this city. popular and highly re-
spected by all classes in the communi-
ty and one Of its members, who dem
onstrated real service in the taking
care of an old lady in the manner of
providing food, clothing and none
tary allowances for this unfortunate
woman. after her daughter had turned
her back on her. Ten years have
passed and this recipient still has a
ray of sunshine from our worthy club
member, and while we enter the So
cial sphere of Club life and partici-
pate in its pleasures. yet the greatest
pleasure and the beautiful idea of our
organization find q cheerful activity
In the larger and broader usefulness
and sacrificing service we render to
humanity. Our band, though few. is
sincere and earnest, being filed with
an enthusiasm that makes us love our
neighbors as ourselves. and our corps
of workers having from time to time
gotten from the public the indorse-
ment OF appreciation for unstinted
service, feel up-lifted and greatly in
spired from the impression establish
ed by the National Association Of
Women's Clubs in its eleventh bieE-
NAL session held here this week and
pledge their rededication and reconse-
Grafton to the uplift Of fallen humani-
ty. continuing our motto: Lifting
as We climb" still engaging with a
firm grasp and strong mind in The
Cause that lacks assistance.
The wrong that needs resistance,
The future in the distance,
And the good that We can do"

SEEGER MAKES A DISCOVERY

Manager Seeger of the Seeger-
Bundle company made a remarkable
discovery that will interest all of the
business men of Blackfoot and Ba-
salt. He registered for service in the
hay fields and worked when and
where he was sent by the farm
bureau, got.fagged and got over It.
got his second wind and got into the
swing OF the work, got corns on his
palms, stayed away from town and
from his store nearly all week and
Saturday and part of the next week,
and when he came back he found
the store was still there. That
wasn't all, the employees we're ali
there and they hadn't run of with
the safe nor the bank vaults at either
corner Of the block. BY looking over
the Nsalesrecord he found they must
have had the store open and been
selling goods rgiht along and bank
ing the money.
Seeger had theory that this
might be done, and Trego had hid
out nearly all spring, merely coming
home Saturday evening to get clean
socks, and the newspaper went right
on better than when he was around,
80 Seeger is pretty sure now. When
he hears other merchants SAYING
they can't get away at all he be-
iieves 1t, but he knows there are ex-
ceptions.
It's mighty fine to have good help. |

F. H. Kubicek, cashier of the new

WILSON BRIDGE
is DEDICATED

PARIS, July 14.-Drizzling rain
failed to dampen the enthusiasm
with which Bastile day was cele-
brated here today or. to interfere
with the splendid pageant in which
sixteen nations fighting for the
worlds freedom were represented.
The heart of France beat especially
warmly toward America. This was
manifested in manifold ways, par
ticularly in the thunderous ovations
given to American soldiers wherever
they appeared. The British and
Czecho-Slovaks shared the warmest
acclaim of the populace.
In the town Of Lyons an impress
siye ceremony marked the inaugura-
t1on OF Wilson bridge. With typical
French courtesy, the mayor of Lyons.
M. Herriol, insisted that troops of
the American expeditionary army be
the first to cross the bridge. United
States Ambassador Sharp, in an elo-
quent speech, pictured the bridge as
a symbol Of the linking of France
with America for all time.
General Pershing sent the follow
Ing message to Premier Clemenceau:
Upon the occasion of July IA, the
day which symbolizes French spirit
and determination, I renew the ex-
preston OF our admiration of the
splendid courage of the French peo-
PIE and the valor of the French SOL
liers.
