In st. Joe Section.
Only two small fires, 40 and 80
acres, were not under control in the
ST. Joe forest last night, Supervisor
Haines reported, and these were ex-
pected to yield to the rain in that
section last night although the pre-
cipitation was less general there. In
the Marble creek country, adjoining
the government reserve, the rain
mounted to little less than a cloud
burst, lumberman arriving in Spokane
from that district this morning de-
clared. Fires which threatened the
extremely valuable timber in this
great white pine belt were thus ex-
tinguished.
There was no rain in the Clearwa-
ter, Selway or Nez Perez forests up
to a. M today, according to reports
to Manager F. R. Ingalsbe of the
Spokane employment office. Fires in
those three reserves were still burn
ing with undiminished ferocity. Forty
men will be sent from Spokane to
Orofino tomorrow morning. They
will be employed in the Clearwater

THROUGHOUT NORTHERN
IDAHO TIMBER BELTS

SPOKANE.-Gr forest fires
which have been raging for weeks in
the forests of northern Idaho were
broken up Sunday night and Monday
morning by heavy rain which prac-
tically eliminated the fire hazard in
the extreme upper end of the pan
handle, but which declined in effect
iveness to the south.
In the Selway, Clearwater and Nez
Perez forests of central Idaho, where
the fires have been burning with lit
tie restraint in almost inaccessible
timber, there was no material change
In the Pend Oreille forest, farthest
north of the Idaho group, the rain
was such that the big fires were al
most extinguished, although few
snags will probably be burning until
snow falls. Some of the blades which
were put out of the running are:
Pack river, 10000 acres.
Burnt, creek, 200 acres.

CIRCUS employees
ARE COSMOPOLITAN
AGENBECK- WALLACE CIRCUS
HAS EMPLOYEES FROM MANY
FOREIGN COUNTRIES

7 Circus life is not without it's re-
ward The work is hard but the life
is in the open The fields and the
trees are green. The skies distil
health for all nature. Husbands,
wives, sons, daughters, uncles, and
aunts travel together Like the
snails they take their homes around
with them. These homes are the
sleeping cars. Necessarily, they are
modest in space, but they are made
to bloom cheerily by genuine do
nestle pride.
The most wonderful circus train in
the world is owned by Hagenbeck-
Wallace Shows Combined. It is a
tower of Babel. The one thousand
people speak almost every language
under the sun. The social side Of
this big family is interesting. There
are card clubs, woman's club, clown
society, cosmopolitan club and base
ball team.
The feminine touch of refinement is
to be seen about the living parts of
the CIRCUS tents as we'll as in the cars.
The dressing tents have no hardwood
floors, but soft carpets are spread.
over the grass, and on these each
artist gathers her little party. The
cosmopolitan club was started last
season. Very few of it's members
speak English and they stumble hope
lessly. 1t is polyglot crowd, work
ing far from home and needing such
fellowship. At present they are
learning to speak English under the
guidance of a little American rider
There are fifty children with the
show. Many are the sons and the
daughters of performers; in sense
born to the business. Others are the
children of relatives. Some are APP
prenticed The boys and girls go to
the circus school and study with
greater zest because of splendid
health and six months sep
aration from school routine Their
teachers are furnished by the man
agement.

thing that will be noted is its vast

From these five fires approximate
lily 500 men will be released as soor
las sthe danger is thought to be thor
oughly past. The Pack river fire
(which has been burning for weeks
without once being put under con-
troll, is so large that it will take days
to determine how completely it has
been subdued. The Jordan Greek
fire, which broke away few days
ago after having been under control
for more than a week, will also re-
quire considerable exploration.
"The danger is practically over in
this forest said Supervisor Ryan of
the Pend Grille reserve. eve could
have a bad season yet, but we do not
anticipate any great trouble. Only
a long drouth could bring back the
critical condition. 1t rained hard all
night and is still raining this morn
ing"
The .Kaniksu forest, almost as far
north as the Pend Oreille, also re-
ceived good soaking. The fires in
this forest were not as large as those
in the adjoining timber, and they are
reported out of danger.
Rain fell over most of the Occur
d'Alene forest, although not with
enough force to penetrate the dense
timber in some parts, according to
Supervisor Wolff. The precipitation
was sufficient, however to render the
situation much less dangerous. The
downpour on the Bear Creek fire,
near Enaville, which a crew of 300
men had been unable to halt, was
heavy enough to render it almost
powerless. and it will be speedily put

CONTRIBUTION BOX

EDITOR OF Star-M1rrOr:
Dear Sir:-From some of your re-
cent editorials the public may think
that the w. c. T. u. took up their
present drive with no right or au-
thority to do so.
Please allow US to explain that we
went to the officers of the chamber of
commerce from. whom we understood
there would be no objection to such
a drive but they advised us to wait
until little later because they felt
we would have better success, which
we did.
For the first time in our existence
we have asked the general public to
help us in raising small sum for
our work.
The Moscow W. G. T. U. have
worked for and given to the Red
Cross and every other drive, taken
Liberty Bonds, have given many sons
to the service of our country, two
of whom and one husband sacrificed
their lives to help win the war and
we do not feel that we are doing
anything out of place to ask our
friends for help. If we should ask
any one who is not friendly to our
cause he has right to refuse with
out getting angry. Our friends are
being loyal. About one half the
needed sum has already been raised.
Regarding the work of the National
W. C. T. U. against tobacco, what is
being attempted is to make it impos-
sible for growing boys to ruin their
physical and mental faculties by the
use of cigarettes as thousands are
now doing.
In this drive we stipulated no sum
for any one to give. This is a free
will Offering.

Of well filed stockings And then the most alarming
Santa wired that the Gingerbread Men,
whom he employed drive his reindeer since the route
got too big for him aone had struck for higher
wages which he could not possibly afford to give.
"What shall do?" exclaimed Lump-o'- o'-Sugar, who
you will remember, had married Cup-o'C Coffee and
had dear little boy named Demi-Tasse. "Demi-
Tasse has been good all year, and have told him that
Santa Claus would surely bring him lovely thngs
"Ill go and the head Of the Gingerbread Mems

IL can't make him call OFF the strike on account Of

so Cup-o- Coffee put his tickest fur overcoat,

Man But nothing that Cup-o' Coffee could say had
slightest effect him. ats all very talk about

never would have had any jobs at all And, anyway

to say, they could find scarcely any, most of them
mad lown away to whatever land it is Christmas
