Stamey Spark Arrester.

F. Stamey has invented a device
which he calls the "Stamey Spark Ar
rester," and has just received his
patent from the United States patent
office. This device is a very prac-
teal arrangement which will elm
mate all danger of fire from sparks
falling from the smoke stacks of
threshing machine engines, railroad
locomotives or other steam engines
where there is danger of fire. This is
very simple arrangement-an at
tachment that can easily be attached
to any smoke stack with but little
trouble or expense and will overcome
one of the great dangers in operating
steam power. Mr.. Stamey has al
ready received several letters from
people who are interested in his in
vention, and if it is properly handled
we believe there is a fortune in it
for him.

SCHOOL VERSES
AMUSEMENT

There should be no "versus" in the
above heading. Amusement and re,
creation are as important and neces.
sary in the proper development OF
young people as is school work itself
There are times when amusement and
recreation should have first place, and
there are times when other important
things should have right of way.
1t is needless to call the attention
Of the school patrons to the fact that
we have lost one-fifth of the school
year by reason of quarantine regula-
ticns. If the work of the year is to
nc completed the schools must have
the closest cooperation of the home
throughout the year. The teachers
are willing to work overtime in an
effort to make up the loss, but with
out cooperation from the home the
teachers efforts will not accomplish
the desired results.
1t is not only desirable, but neces-
sayr, if we round out the years work,
that each pupil in the High School,
and possibly the upper Grammar
grades, shall establish, with the CO.
operation of the parents, program
OF regular home study which shall
necessitate the child's staying at
home regularly on school-day even
ings, reserving only Friday and Sat
urday evenings for amusements. 1t is
just as easy and just as convenient
to arrange functions designed for the
recreation and amusement of school
pupils for Friday evenings as for any
onther evening.
The attention of patrons is thus
called to the fact that with their CO. /
operation in this matter, we can yet
complete the years work in very |
good shape, but that without this CO.
operation we shall not be able to
finish the outline of work for the
year.
II is an old story, and strangely be- |
ieved by many parents, for the pupil
to say, 81 get all my lessons in school
and do not need to bring my books
nume," but you will always note that !
inc report card of such pupil never
Tres him up in the A column. Such a
pupil is never at his best. Our motto !!
.lig year must be, Every Fellow at
His Best All the Time" This means
lot only plenty of work, but also
plenty of sleep. The home study pro-
gram should not require more than
rom one hour to one and one-half
rours, and the time of retiring on
'chool-day evenings should never be
ater than ten o'clock for any grow
ng young person engaged daily in
mental effort. In a fatigued body
here must inevitably be fatigued
rind, incapable of sustained effort,
while in a rested and refreshed body
here will be an active, alert mind
ready to grasp, in full measure, the
lays work.
Let US all, teacher, pupil and pa
ron pull together this year and do
A years work in spite of the handicap
Of loss of time.

CLUB
DO|NGs

Since the first meeting in Septem-
to the present completes half the
icycle of regular meetings, and the
program as planned for apparent re-
sons has not been filled but Monday
saw a return of old time interest as
more than fifty were in attendance.
| Lest we forget, there is an unwritten
law that ministers wives are always
welcome to the club meetings, priv
ileged members, club meetings second
and fourth Mondays.
The club is much interested in help
ling the Canteen at Huntington, and
will be as long as one is maintained
there. If you could hear the praise
Iof the soldiers and sailors in regard
to canteens you would look through
your store again for good things to
leave at the library, where the com
nlittee will send them on. Cards
written will be mailed for them so
money is acceptable.
Another noteworthy work of the
club women is The Loan School Air
ship Fund in which every live club
in the state is interested.
The fund is nearing the eight thou
sand dollar mark and is available tol
students in the junior and senior
years. This fund applies only to the
state University. Aside from what
the club gives directly, Payette's |
share reported through the club is:
Senior class 1918, s1OO; Mrs. Henry
Erwin, $100; Mrs. John McGlinchey, !
500. Mrs. Ira Tweedy will give in
structions to any student in the county
low to secure the loan.
With desire to win the war para
mount with the library committee, sill
ent on the finance question, has re-
duced that fund to almost the minus
quantity, but series of entertain
nents are under way and every one
interested is invited to help each in
her own way chain parties, card
parties at a 25 cent rate, a dance
or dinner, and remember the money
S for reading for the boys when they
,omc.
Club members welcomed Mrs. ]. L.

INFLUENZA CLAIMS
YOUNG MAN

The body of Dewitt A. Bigelow,
eldest son of Mr.. and Mrs. Millard F.
Bigelow, arrived in Payette Sunday
morning from Oxbow, Oregon, where
the young man had been for several
months working in the mining camp,
and was taken sick while there and
passed away after but a few days
illness. Dewitt was a young man full
OF ambition and after registering for
service in the army and was exempted
to be called at any time, went to
work at the mining camp near Oxbow,
where it would be convenient to re-
turn when called. He was taken with
influenza about a week ago and
passed away January 25th at the age
os 10 years months and 2 days. He
was a graduate from the high school
at Woodburn, Oregon, in 1917, and
shortly after came with his parents
to Payette, where he made many
friends among the younger people
who will regret his early departure
in life.
Besides father and mother he
leaves to mourn his death two brothers,
dwight E. and Russell NJ, and two
sisters Blanch and Belva, all of whom
are living at home. Funeral services
were conducted by Rev. H. K. Wallis
at Riverside cemetery Monday after
noon at a P NJ, where the body was
laid to rest.

Figures given out by the govern
ment up to January 18th give the to-

war continued another year or two.

LABOR BUREAUS
TO Be CONTINUED

INDIANAPOLIS, March 20. - In
order to maintain a barometer" OF
changing labor conditions, the United
States employment service has an
nounced that the service of commit
nifty labor boards would be continued
Indefinitely. A demand for informa-
ton as to the unemployment situation
the country over it is said, Influenced
the decision to continue weekly bulle-
tins from the service to large en-
ployers, public officials and others iu-
terested
Reports for the week ending March
25, indicate a slight improvement in
the number Of unemployed, although
The area of unemployment remains
practically unchanged. OF 1872 cities
reporting, only 7.3 per cent show d
shortage of labor, 6S per cent sur
plus of labor and 24.7 report the sup
ply and demand about equal.
In the reports from the middle west
seven Indiana cities show large sur
plus, which is less in Indianapolis
than for the preceding week, but
greater in Evansville and Gary, with
South Bend, Terre Haute and Ham
mond about stationary.
Reports from over the state indi-
cate a general improvement in the
status Of discharged soldiers, sailors
and marines. There appear to be
fewer registrations for employment
and a more general application on the
part of employers to take their or
ganization men with military records.
There are still many unplaced men,
however, and the activity of the bu
reau is in nowise slackened.

dian girl, by Joseph M. Schenck. The
story is by George Scarborough. 1t
was directed by Sidney A. Franklin.
Wetona, the daughter of Quannah,
chief of a tribe of the Comanches, is
chosen to act as vestal virgin at a
Corn Dance to be given in connection
with some ancient rites that the tribe
is contemplating holding. She refuses
to accept the offer. saying that she is
not fit to bring food to the Holy Spirit
She tells her father that no girl that
has loved the way she has is worthy
of such an honor. Her father is
amazed. For the first time he real
ICES that his daughter is not the KIND
of a girl she ought to be. Wetonas
mother was white woman and in &C
cordance with her dying wish Wetona
has been brought up as white girl.
She tells her father that her lover
is white man but will not tell him
his name. Quannah decides to find
out who he is and then kill him. Wet
ona goes to John Hardin, agent of the
reservation, to beg him to save the
life of. her lover.
While they are talking, Quannah en-
ers and thinks that Hardin is his
daughters lover. Hardin, who really
loves Wetona, but has never told her
so, decides to marry her in order to
save her. Later it is learned that
Anthony Wells is the man that
wronged Wetona. Wetona has since
learned what kind of a man Tont
really is and with her fathers forgive
ness and Hardin's love she is again
made happy.
