THE SCHOOL
BOND ELECTION

The School Bond election will b.
held on Saturday afternoon April IL
In the meantime it is desired that al
qualified voters should have all tht
information available.
I First. You are invited to visit the
High School in the present quarters
any time to acquaint yourself with the
actual conditions under which the
High School operates. Twelve years
ago there were SO pupils in the High
School. There are now about twoice
that number occupying the same quar-
ters that were occupied by the SO
( twelve years ago. There are 80
seats with desks in the Assembly
Room and the enrolment this year is
twice the number of seats. Draw
your own conclusions as to actual
necessity for more school room
Second. The School Board-will be
in session in the High School room on
Wednesday evening, April 9. They in
vite the general public to meet with
them to discuss the situation and they
will be in readiness to give out such
information as may be called for. In
the meantime see the general design
Of the proposed new building in the
window of Rezac's Pharmacy.
Who may vote at this election?
In order to clear the matter beyond
doubt, Attorney General. Black was
asked to state specifically the legal
qualifications of voters in School Bond
elections in Independent School Dis
tricts. He rules that in order to vote
at such election, one must be citizen
of the United States, must have re-
sided within the state six months and
within the county thirty days previous
to election and must be either a res
ident freeholder or resident house
holder within the district. Resident
fieeholders are holders of property,
and if the property is community prop
erty as it usually is, both husband and
wife may vote. Resident household
ers are heads of families and the At
torney General holds that the legis |
lature undoubtedly meant to includ-
both husband and wife as voters.
All property holders, whether mar
ried or single and all heads of fam
lies, whether property owners or not,
are therefore. qualified voters if thew
are citizens within the meaning of
The Constitution.

At THE SEWEL
SHEEP CAMP

Last Sunday afternoon was an ideal
day for the people to ride out and en-
JOY the sunshine and beautiful
weather. Many of the Payette peo-
pie visited the Sewell sreep shearing
camp just east of town. This is GER
tainly busy place. There were about
twenty men engaged in the operation
of the affairs at this camp, and to
those who had never witnessed a first
class shearing camp, it was quite a
sight. There were ten men operating
power machines which removed the
fleec from each sheep in less than two
minutes. Every man had his part to
do and so did every sheep, for when
the sheep had run the gauntlet and
was relieved of her winter coat, she
was turned loose to find her lamb
among a thousand bleating babies. 1t
was certainly noisy place.

MRS. RURD INJURED
IN AUTO ACCIDENT

Last Sunday evening while on their
way home from church, Mr.. and Mrs.
Claud Hurd who were riding in a one
horse buggy were struck by an auto
mobile and thrown to the ground and
both injured. The accident occurred
about nine o'clock in front of the w.
D. Case residence just south of town.
Mr.. Hurd had turned out in meeting
a car driven by Mrs, Walling when a
bunch of Joy riders from Weiser who
were returning from Ontario appar-
emily about three sheets in the wind,
ca ID b lind FLrs. Walling at q
furious rate, passed her car and swung
to the other side of the road striking
the front wheel of Mr.. Hurd's buggie
with such force that both Mr.. and
Mrs. Hurd were thrown from the rig
and the horse completely stripped of
the harness. The buggy was badly
smashed and Mrs. Hurd received
broken rib and otherwise badly
bruised. She was taken to her home
in Mrs. Walling's car and a doctor
summoned and while she was quite
badly hurt, it is thought she will re-
cover without any serious results. Mr..
Hurd received a cut on the hand and
a bruised shoulder but was not other
wis hurt. The joy-riders after stop
ping their car at some little distance,
came back to the scene but seem to
take but little interest in what they
had done, drove on to Payette after
having some repairs done on their
car drove up and down the streets
at a fast rate causing considerable
disturbance before returning to Weis-
err. TIE matter is being investigated
and it is quite likely the young men
will be given an opportunity to ex-
plain matters later.
The young men all returned to Pay
ette Wednesday and settled with Mr..
Hurd for $500, and plead guilty before
Judge Luther to charge of disorderly
conduct and was fined $1,000 each.

ARBOR DAY MEMORIALS. Many
states are building memorials to the
splendid work done by our soldier boys
and we most heartily commend the
action taken by the Payette School
Board in their planning to build their
rev school building as memorial
for our local boys, also to commend
the action of the Payette Portia Club
in their plan to put out road side
planting of trees between Payette and
the Fruitland bridge on what is known
as "The Erwin Memorial Mile on the
state highway. Many southern states
are planting hundreds of miles of road
side trees as fitting memorial and
we hope that some organization in this
county may take up the plan of road
side tree planting or of establishing
a park area somewhere in the center
of the County and provide for its
so that all county picnics
might be held in memorial park of
several acres extent,
We hope that individual ranchers
will put out more shade trees, espec-
tally dry land ranchers who can get
black locust trees started with q min
imum amount of water which will
greatly add to their ranches appear
ance and provide shade now SO much
needed on dry ranches.
