Throngs Gather
on Opening Night
of ,49 Sholo
DELEGATION FROM LEWISTON
ADDS TO CRowD-TWo
MORE NIGHTS

| The AZ show Is on.
Opening Thursday night and TO con.
tinue until early Sunday morning,
Grangeville S third annual Days of 40
under the auspices of the Cowboy band,
is proving most successful and pop.
ular affair.
A delegation of more than fifty
business men and their ladies from Lew
iston attended the show Thursday
night, in addition to hundreds of per
sons from all parts of Idaho county.
Old and young together enjoyed the
entertainment. Those who were not
interested in the dance hall, found en-
tertainment galore in the gambling
den, where all the games of chance of
the old-time west were played with
phoney money. Roulette, poker, black.
jack and faro provided splendid enter
tainment for the oldtimers, who were
afforded an opportunity to again live
the days of yesteryear when the west
was young and far more gay than it is
today.
An interesting feature of the Thurs
day night entertainment was the old
folks dance, in which many old mar
ried folk participated, to their greatest
enjoyment, in quadrille, while three
fiddlers fiddled with all their might
in a fiddling contest, which, after a
half hour s continuous fiddling, was de.
clared a draw, and the prize of SIS was
divided equally among the fiddlers
three. The fiddlers were Joe Hazel
fiddlers. The fddlers were Joe Hazel
baker, Emil VonBerge and Fred Cross.
Striking costumes were those worn
by l.. NJ. Harris and Sheldon ombbs, !
both of whom were dressed to imper-
senate tin-horn gamblers, while Mrs.
AN. Dyer and Miss Helen Erskine were
dressed in old fashioned attire. There |
were numerous cowboys in chaps and !
Tammany Vincnt was dressed as an In
dian chieftain.
About the dance hall were many
signs, home made, calling attention to
the several attractions, and bearing
on conduct permissible dur
the evening. In one corner Of the dance
hall was a bar, where squirrel whiskey,
snake poison and other appetising
drinks were served. In another corner
was bandstand, from which the Cow
Doy orchestra rendered dance music dur.
ng the evening.
The Lewiston delegation, which ar
lived Thursday night in special sleep
sr, was met at the train by the band
md automobiles, and conveyed to the
lance hall.
Here is a list of the Lewiston per
IONS who attended, as furnished by one
member of the party.

CRANCEWL[E MAY EXPERIENCE
BUILDING BOOM THIS SUMNER

Rumors of another business block
also are afloat, but so far no announ-
cement has been made.
A city hall probably will be erected
some time within the year. A site has
not been selected, but several locations
are in view.
Plans are beginning to take shape
for the erection of a memorial to the
soldiers and sailors from Idaho county.
Whether this memorial viii be in the
nature of a monument or a building,
is left with the committee appointed for
the purpose of raising funds for the
structure.

CHATTING OVER THE GARDEN
WAL l.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: This past
winter has certainly been appreciated
by those doing their own laundry work,
scarcely a blue Monday, and the
clothes drying quite as in the good
summer days.
Our lobster cactus blossomed for IL
weeks. Maybe that was giving its
brightness in return for the mild wea-
Their.
With the best of care some plants
will die during the short winter days,
but as longer days and sunshine come
they respond with much less w.
ent seed to test their fertility. Toma-
toes planted the middle of February,
are growing very well, somewhat to my
surprise and satisfaction.
The dwarf tree tomatoes are COM
ing up from seed cultivated for good
sized fruit; they will be just right for
small reeeptacles.
l have two veterans in the cellar, a
pansv and chard root that are two
yea = old and indicate growth for an
other season.
Not far from the city there is field
well stocked with stones. Last year a
man decided to purchase some and the
owner gave the price at so cents a
load; all went we'll until the third
load, and then the price had advanced
to one dollar; and the reason given
was that on account of the war stones
had gone up.

THE OLD LOVE SONG.

Play it slowly, sing it lowly,
Old familiar tune,
once 1t ran in dance and dimple
Like a brook in June:
Now it sobs along the measures
With a sound of tears;
Dear old voices echo through it,
Vanished with the years.
Play II slowly--it is holy
As an evening hymn.
Morning gladness hushed to sadness
Fills IL 10 the brim.
Memories come within the music,
Stealing through the bars;
Thoughts within it's quiet spaces
Rise and set like stars.
Ripple, ripple. goes the love song
Til. in slowing time,
Early sweetness grown completeness
Floods its every rhyme;
Who together learn the music
Life and death unfold
Know that love is but beginning
Until love is old
Singing. singing through the roses
Went our lovers twain
Was there ever such a rose time,
Could there be again?

REVERENCE FOR GODS MESSEN
GER Z

Dear Social Corner Friends: Is rev.
erence for the sanctuary and it's SER
vices on the Sabbath taught by ex-
ample and precept as earnestly as it
used to be fifty years ago?
1t seems to me that there is not that
reverent and undivided attendance
given to the preaching of Gods word
in the Sunday services by whole fami-
lies that there used to be. Is it owing
to laxness of home teaching?
We are living at such a high rate
of speed. and events are moving so
rapidly, that it seems as if some peo-
pie had no time for church services, or
communion with God.
In the 46th Psalm it says: BE still
and know that 1 am God" 1t seems as
if it would be well for everybody to
remember that God reigns and that we
must give an account of our time,
whether we have tried to glorify God
or whether We have just lived for self,
without trying to honor Him for all
of the loving kindness manifested to
U.S.
| If everyone could realize what a
great difference the religion of the
Savior makes in this homeland of ours.
| methinks every one would be willing
| to receive the messages from the
| Gospels by the preaching of Gods
word in the sanctuary.
1t would seem as if no one in this
| enlightened land could be SO migrate
full to God for His great goodness in
giving His son to die for them they
would be Indifferent to the offers OF
mercy and messages of love that they
may hear in the sanctuary from Gods
word by the faithful preacher And
yet, how many turn a deaf ear ever
while they may be in the sanctuary
and do not receive the message. Some
even are SO irreverent that they viii
even while the messenger of God is
| pleading with them. as well as others
to accept of salvation, they will be
trying to attract others attention By
whispering, or in other ways to draw
their attention from the speaker who
| is faithfully trying to win them to lis
ten to the offers of pardon and love
from the Savior who died for them.
1t seem as if there must have beer
great lack of good teaching and prop.

NEW YORk'S GREAT MILITARY
.1RECEPTION

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner:
1t was not with the sadness of fare
we'll that / watched the stream of
victorious marchers that filled the
streets of this great city this morning,
but with the tense feeling of exultation
that was everywhere manifest and
most evident in the smiling faces of
the boys who were the heroes of this
historic parade.
Long before shutdown last evening
every form of decoration or welcome
that could be devised III honor of our
boys who have returned from the bat
tleiields of France was in process of
contamination.
At o'clock this morning, the streets
were thronged and at s o'clock it was
impossible to even obtain standing
room on Fifth avenue 1t certainly
was day of triumph for the boys.
The sunshine smiled on them and the
winds lightly waited the bouquets and
flags that were thrown from the tower
ing office windows and fell around
them in showers.
The Arch of Victory. erected for this
occasion. festooned with colored bal
looms, was the most elaborate display
along the line and the gathering point
of the many thousands who had come
to extend a, welcome to our boys who
| had gone over the top The flag
draped grounds at the public library at
AID street were reserved for the
wounded soldiers who, at the call to
arms, marched with as light a step and
glowing eye in the lines ready for ser
vice over there" as the boys who to-
day walked lightly forward and have
returned unsCathed from the horrors
of battle.
At 59th street arches were erected
hanging from which were long pen
dants upon which the light from pow
erful searchlights by night and the
sunlight by day reflected rainbow col
orings, flashing with the brilliancy
that would emanate from masses OF
, diamonds This was known as the
"Jcwelled Portal or the Crystal
| Gateway"
At 10 o'clock the masses of people
blocked every inch of standing space
on Fifth avenue, the street was clear
ed of traffic and the sunshine glittered
on the white surface of the street as il
1t were a golden pathway. Above were
floating miles of f1aGs and bunting. and
in the distance could be seen the white
outlines of the Arch of Victory.
At the head of the parade was car
lied the caisson. adorned with ever
greens and drapej III black in honor OF
the dead. bearing in gold stars the
number of the boys who were sleep
ing over there Following came The
long lines of automobiles, two abreast
carrying the wounded soldiers; ther
came the various regiments marchin2
in half battalion units. each soldier il
full uniform, with light pack. canteer
and gas mask hanging at his side, will
rife and cvercoat. Each unit carried
placard to identify it. And this parade
one of the greatest demonstration!
ever witnessed in this great city, for
mally celebrates the close of thu
worlds greatest war

A GOOD LESSON.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: I
was quite interested in the various let
taEs regarding the sentiments of the
Ninth Anniversary of the Social Cor
ner department. 1t proves the sugces-
ton of the poem of recent date, Give
out the best you have, and the best
will come back to YOU
what the Social Corner means to me-
l would acknowledge many helpful
ideas, often interesting personal letters
that brings US closer into the homes OF
our writer's.
The club meetings are a strong fea-
ture, for through them we meet for
acquaintance which develops many
new friendships.
Also, it is a pleasure to enjoy a 81
lent attraction for all those whom we
have not had the privilege of a per
sonal greeting. They are to us friends
| unseen" whose written thoughts we
admire.
We have always learned that friend

value a friend of long standing. We

some lines, mistakes may occur or
! both sides. but the real friendship vii
| continue to exist. When we give out
the best we have we may more read
| lily see and enjoy the best others give
| out to us.
| This reminds me of a little story o.
a small boy, who was learning his les
son on this topic, or, whatever yol
give, its equivalent will return" HI
was out of doors, and playing around
and using his voice, shouting in a 'ner-

| he heard a similar response. He con.
| tinued to call, asking, who and wher,
his seemingly new friend was, but tt
no satisfaction, only a continued mock
cry of his own words. This enrage(
the little chap, so that he began to cal

bad names" and asked her to come GU
and help find this intruder.

young son, out into the yard, telling
him she would find the boy who ha.
called him bad names, without havin
to seek for him. Then she instracte
him to call to the invisible with kin

MY MORNING CALLER.

What are you doing today?" is her
greeting as she seated herself in the
| cosiest corner of my kitchen, where /
| with a large ironing to do, and little
cooking also, am very busy.
Upon receiving my answer to her
question she settled herself for the
morning.
Excusing myself, I keep on with my
work.
| We discuss the weather. She tells
me how much house cleaning she will
be obliged to do.
! 1 outline what would like to have
done in the way of repairing inside the
| house.
| We compare notes on crocheting,
talk over the latest styles in suits and
| hats, and SO on and on.
Finishing the ironing, in the mean
time, take the bread from the oven,
and then turning to her, I ask her to
go up stairs with me while do the
work there, thinking this will be bet
ter than leaving her down stairs alone.
Up stairs we go, she following me
from room to room, as I put them to
rights talking volubly.
CHANGING at the clock on our return
to the kitchen I see that it is time for
me to go about preparations for din
ner.
She reseats herself, to my dismay,
with the remark that it is only eleven
O'clock" and that her husband will not
be home to dinner"
| l step from kitchen to pantry and
from pantry to dining room, and in a
half hour or SO the dinner is well I'M

Perceiving this she exclaims, start
ing up: We'll, l must be going!"
Of course, invite her to stay to din
ner, but thanking me, she declines, put
ting on her coat and tying a scarf
around her head, she gets as far as the
door, where she stands, perhaps, ter
minutes with her hand on the knob
; telling me of the encroachment on hel
property of her neighbours hens, tc

door we stand there possibly five min
utes longer, exchanging amenities: Fl

URIC ACID IN MEAT
CLOGS THE KIDNEYS
Take a Glass Of Salts II Your Back
Hurts or Bladder Bothers

II you must have your meat every
day, eat it, but flush your kidneys
with salts occasionally, says a noted
authority who tells us that meat
forms uric acid which almost paral-
Yves the kidneys in their efforts to
expel it from the blood. They become
sluggish and weaken, then you suffer
with a dull misery in the kidney re-
gion, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach
sours, tongue is coated, and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full
of sediment the channels often get
sore and irritated, obliging you to
seek relief two or three times during
the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the body's urinous waste, get four
ounces of Jad Salts from any pharm-
acy here; take tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush
and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also
to neutralize the acids in urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending blad-
der weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot
injure, and makes a delightful effer-
vescent lithia water drink.
