Big Airship Exhibition Friday.

Nezperce business men yester-
day made up a purse of 5000 to
have Lieut.. Kelso give an airship
exhibition here tomorrow--Fri-
ay-afternoon and evening. This
will be free to all, and everybody
is invited to come out and see the
show.
The stunt flights will take place
at 3 and Z p. M, and passenger
flights will be made at any other
time during the afternoon.
Lieut.. Kelso has been doing
aerial stunts at Lewiston and 9TH
er points in the Lewiston country
during the past week. and some Of
our townspeople have seen his
work and know it to be the real
thing-with all the dives, dips,
flipflops, etc, practiced in the war
zone. And the lieutenant does
not spend a lot Of time suffering
around before he starts on a
flight. When it's time to take the
air, he takes it.
He is also flying at other points
on the prairie this week, including
Vollmer-Ilo, Winchester, Cotton
wood and Grangeville.
He makes special passenger-car-
rying trips, and any who have
that feeling Of wanting to be "up
in the air" will here get an op-
portunity to satisfy it.
The flights will be made from
the johnson grain field at the
northeast corner of town, this be-
ing the nearest-in point providing
ample starting and landing area.

East and West Survey Progress
ing.

DR.. j. +. Bridwell and j. f. Bet
tbs, commissioners of the Kamiah
Highway District, and Secretary
Rehberg were in Nezperce Tues
day in conference with the coun-
ty commissioners as to funding
the survey Of the prairie link of
the Lewis and Clark and North
and South highways.
As a result Of this conference,
it was agreed that the county
would take care Of the expense of
the survey on that portion of the
road which extends through the
Kamiah Highway district. This
however. will be largely
born by the state in the final set
tlement after the road is built.
This highway link, from Kam-
iah to Ilo, is on the state schedule
and crew Of surveyors has been
at work on it for some time. Be-
ginning the survey at lilo they
have covered about half the dis
tance, now being in this vicinity.
The eastern half of the job will
be much heavier, however, since
it includes the grade from the
prairie into the Kamiah valley. 1t
was because of this heavier grade
work, which is all in the Kamiah
Highway district, that the COM
felt justified in calling
on the county for assistance.

LEWIS COUNTY TO
HAVE R. G. NURSE.
Progressiveness of County Main
tanned When Commission
ers Close Compact for
Health Betterment.

Lewis county is in compact with
1.-THE Red Cross organization to pro-
vide a trained nurse for this pro-
gressive commonwealth at $2500
per year. the Red Cross to pay
$1,000 of this amount and the
county. $500.
The plan is meeting with favor
by the wide-awake counties all
over the country-just as the
farmer agent idea has--and a
number of such nurses have al
ready been located in various Sec
tions Of the northwest.
The party chosen for the work
is to be a regular Red Cross nurse
who has had special training in
public health service, and the du-
ties Of the office require prompt
answers to calls from any part of
the county, the inspection Of
schools and the pupils to the end
that conditions be kept sanitary,
and the organization of work in
cases Of epidemic. such as the in
fluenza scourge which struck us
last fall. While the headquarters
of the nurse will naturally be at
the county seat, all parts Of the
county will have equal claim on
the service to be rendered, and as
each district experiences the ben
efits to be gained through such Of
flee, little question will be left in
the public mind as to the value
and advisability of its establish
ment here.

Nezperce Club Workers Win al
Spokane.

h Misses Marjorie Miller and Eli
4 zabeth Wade, accompanied by
: Miss Near. county club leader, re.
: turned Saturday evening from
: Spokane, where they were in at.
tendance at the Interstate Fair for
several days.
/ The Lewis county club repre-
''sentatives were very royalty en-
tertained with about so or 60 9TH
ers. from Idaho, Washington and
| Oregon by the Fair Association at
a club camp nicely located on the
grounds. Mrs. w. L. Tenant act
led as chaperon of the camp, and
was very admirably assisted by
Miss Margaret Mahoney of the Y.
w, G. A.
The club members not only had
all the privileges of the Fair, so
| far as the Fair Association was
concerned. but were entertained
I by numerous concerns, such as
The Davenport, The Crescent, Tru-
Blue Biscuit Co., and by auto rides
|about the city. a visit at one of
the public markets and plunge
in the pool Of the Lewis and Clark
high school.
Elizabeth Wade together with
Calvin Pease. of Weiser, composed
the Idaho Judging Team and won
second place in the Interstate
Judging Contest, Oregon winning
first place. Miss Wade attracted
considerable attention at her work
for the reason that it is rather
novel to have 12-year-old girls
JUDGING poultry and also for the
reason that she displayed excep-
tional ability and earnestness in
her phase Of the work.
Lewis County Boys and Girls
Clubs also displayed very credit
able exhibits in sewing and gar
den products.
A trip Of this kind is a wonder
full opportunity for the boys and
girls and Of great benefit, both ed
lcationally and socially. They
not only become acquainted with
what the boys and girls of other
states are doing, but come in
ouch with men and women who
ire experts in their various lines
# work.

Mrs John Harris Hurt in Auto
Spill.

Mrs. John Harris and her three
year-old daughter were caught be-
meath their auto when it overturn-
ed on the road three miles north
east of town last Monday after
noon and but for the timely arriv-
al on the scene and assistance of
,E. Schubert and G.. j. Miller would
doubtless have been crushed to
death. AS it is. they are little the
worse off for the exciting exper-
ience.
Mrs. Harris was driving the car,
in which she and the child were
alone. when she lost control and in
swerving from the road the ma
chine upset. pinning both the oc-
cupants beneath it. Mr.. Seubert
happened to see the accident and
hastened to the spot, but was un-
able to extrieate the victims. In
a short time G. J. Miller happen
ed to come that way. and the two
men succeeded in lifting the car
and removing the woman and
child They were brought to Nez-
perez and given medical atten-
ton, and though internal injur-
les were at first indicated, they
have made sufficient recovery to
show there were no serious hurts.

Pershing Receives Becoming Wei

er honor than any foreign poten-
tate or power could confer the
thanks of the worlds greatest
democracy to the man who plan
ned the decisive blow in democra-
cy s supreme fight against tyran-
ny.
The stern faced soldier who had
maintained his iron self control
amid the shambles Of the Meuse
and the blood drenched forest of
Argonne, was not proof against
the tribute of praise and gratitude
which roared from hundreds Of
thousands Of the throats and
hearts Of his fellow citizens.
His voice trembled with emo
tion as he responded to the greet
ings extended by Secretary of
War Baker in his own behalf and
that Of the president as well as
the welcoming addresses Of rep
resentatives of the senate and
house. the state and city.
As his car proceeded slowly
through the cheering multitudes
which iammed Broadway from
the Battery to the city hall, PERISH
ing attempted in vain to maintain
his composure. At first he re-
piled to the cheers with the stiff
salute which military etiquette de-
mands. but he was soon carried
away by the storm Of applause
which swept in great gusts about
him. Rising to his feet he waved
his cap above his head with a boy
ish gesture which told how deeply
he was stirred. while the grim
lines Of his bronzed face broke in
to smile which was as infectious
as it was rare.
1t was a proud moment for the |
great American soldier.
Just after the general walked |
down the gangplank at Hoboken
he received the first reward which |
a grateful country has to offer
him. In the name of the nation
Secretary of War Baker handed |
him his commission as full general
in the American army, a rank held
previously by only three men,
Grant, Sheridan and Sherman.
The warmth Of the general S re-
ception seems to increase as his
visit lengthens. The crowds in
front of his hotel became so nu-
merous that a large detail of po-
licemen on Tuesday was needed
to keep traffic moving and to per-
nit the official cars to pass to and
fro. 1t became known today that
General Pershing is being swamp

About eight or ten more are ex-

their high school work are the
ones that get a late start in en-

French, algebra. geometry, ply
sizes and many Of the other studies
it generally makes it impossible
for him to catch up with the class
and results in failure and discour-
Iagement.
