GLEANINGS

EXP. Atchlson returned Monday
morning from business trip to
Lewiston.
Mrs. A. v. Dunkle and little
daughter Jean, spent the first of the
week in Troy with her husband.
Zoe Fruchtl of Lenore was in
Kendrick last Saturday transacting
business.
VIM. Pemberton of Lewiston was
visiting his mother here last Satur-
day. He is now running the ice
plant at the Mutual Creamery in
Lewiston.
Alec Galloway is getting some
good yields on his ranch on Bear
Ridge. From 125 acres he harvest,
ed GOT sacks of beans. On account
of having insufficient help he ex-
poets to store the beans on his place
and take chance that there will be
enough snow so he can haul them to
market on a sled. Bean threshing,
seeding and blowing time are run
ming close together this season with
most everyone. Mr.. Galloway dug
400 sacks of fine potatoes from an
acre and quarter of land. Under
ordinary conditions this would be
profitable crop but the shortage of
labor is felt again as 1t takes con-
siderable time to harvest the pota-
toes.
A. w. Jones returned Monday
from Montana where he went for
the purpose of transacting business
in connection with some land he
purchased there a short time ago.
He states that the weather was fine
while he was there.
The first ten days of November
constitute the open season for Chin
ese pheasants. At the lower end of
Potlatch canyon these game birds
were to be found in large numbers
at the opening of the season hunt
ers were out in large numbers also.
Word comes from Portland that
the condition of Harry Grice is
much improved and that he is now
getting around on crutches. He
will completely recover from the
accident which he sustained when
he fell from a scaffolding while
working in the shipyards near Port
land.
Now that the election is over the
important matter before the people
of this precinct is to raise the quota
for the United War Work Fund. 1t
can easily be done if everyone does
his share. 1t has been long time
since contribution for war pur-
poses has been issued to support
the welfare work that cares for our
boys in the training camps and in
France.
Mr.. and Mrs. Howard Fenton and
two children arrived in Kendrick
last week from Uniontown. How
ard is looking after the interests of
the N. P. here while Agent Wilcox
is taking his annual hunting trip
in the wilds above Orofino.
Nearly all of the voters in Kend-
rick came out of the election booth
crying. This would no doubt be a
very gratifying sight to the by
ISLANDERS, that the election privilege
should be taken so seriously. How
ever, those who voted could tell the
Observation-Disclosures. So far as
known, all election officials surviv-
ed the effects of the fumes but it is
believed the flu died.
Mrs. Betsy Olson will hold a
public auction at her home tomor-
row for the purpose of disposing of
her household goods, preparatory to
leaving for Minnesota with her son.
DIR. Moser and Harry Stanton had
very unpleasant experience while
hunting up Pine Creek last Sunday.
A fox terrier which they had with
them, got caught in coyote trap.
DR.. Moser attempted to extricate
the dog from the trap and was sew
erely bitten in the hand. Harry
tried to assist the Doctor and the
dog bit him on the thumb, causing
quite painful wound. 1t is said
even the most peaceable dogs will
bite when caught in trap.
DR.. and Mrs. Smith received a
message a few days ago that Dr.
Patton while attending his patients
at the hospital in Silverton, Cali
fornia, was taken with the "f1u"
which soon developed pneumonia.
He was hurriedly brought back to
Denver and a second message an
nounces him to be improving.
M. V. Thomas, Charles w. Jessup
of Juliaetta and his son from Yak
ina, returned Saturday from a
hunting trip to the North Fork
country above Dent. They found
some good bird shooting but report
deer rather scarce in that locality.
1t is wonderful country, however
and week spent there is worth
while even if the l.unting is often
poor.
