Referring to the revolt, the report
says: The result proved anew that
Japan will not voluntarily grant Ko-

peninsula, will not interfere. Costly

Regarding the attitude OF the

BIOLOGY CLASS

The biology class has a member
ship of about so. The usual course
takes up the study of botany and in
sects, but Mr. Wilson, the new. in
structor, consented to let the class
study birds and trees at sometime
during the course. There are two
laboratory periods during the week
In good weather, these periods are
spent out of doors, in the observa-
ton of flowers, seeds, and insects.
The microscopes have been used in
the study of flowers. The school is
fortunate in having a number of
good, compound microscopes, which
were purchased before the era of
high prices. AT present, the class is
studying plant growth and nutrition.

the -Ioscow-Pullman high school
game, a pep rally was held on the
athletic field. The material for the
huge bon fire which was secured by
the freshman boys proved to be "A

Libby led number of yells, which
were followed by short talks from
Mr.. Gaiser and Coach Cook. Talks
were also made by members of the

the students serpentined from the
school building through Main street,
where they gave demonstration of
their pep by speeches and yells.

DIR. BROWN ADDRESSES SCHOOL

Dr.. T. X. Brown addressed the
students of the high school Monday
afternoon, concerning his wide ex-
perience as a missionary. Durins
his 40 years of life as a missionary
in Armenia, he has learned to know
that country we'll
He says that it is a magnificent
country. In the mountains there is
untold mineral wealth and there are
thousands of acres of arid lands
which. if irrigated. would produce
wonderfully. The condition of the
people is wretched as all develop
ment is opposed by the Turks.
The land now cultivated has been
under cultivation for 300 years. As
nothing is returned to the soil. the
crops harvested are pitifully small
The taxation is very heavy. The
church takes one-half of the whole
crop. The government takes one
fifth of what is left as rent. for the
Turks regard the people of Armenia
as only the occupants of the land.
while they are the owners. Then
the remaining two-fifths of the
whole crop is taxed. The people live
entirely on this remainder.
The missionaries have great diff
ficulty in reaching the people. The
Mohammedans put every conceivable
obstacle in the path of the mission
airy, to keep him from educating the
people. The people themselves are
the greatest obstacle however. for
they are so ignorant that they have
no desire for knowledge.

WHEAT GROWERS MEET
AT COLFAX TODAY
Farmers VIII Assemble at Court
House to Discuss Question of
Profitable Marketing of
Wheat

Every citizen in Whitman county
is interested in the wheat market.
Many level headed farmers and bust
ness men feel that the wheat indus

certain that no industry is safe that
faces a purely speculative and man
ipulated market We have faced a
speculative market tor more than
generation and growers are hard TO
find who are satisfied with the pres
ent market.
Thirteen hundred wheat growers
in Idaho and Washington have de
cided to do the thing that has saved
many agricultural industries in Eu-
rope and America and that Is to mar
ket their wheat through a purely CO.
Operative association.
The Washington and Idaho Wheat
Growers are now in active and sue
cessful operation. Under this plan,
the growers pool their wheat and
elect from their members board
who direct the afafirs of the organi-
cation. Every members wheat is

MOSCOW DEFEATS PULLMAN

The Pullman high school football
team was defeated last Friday by the
more experienced Moscow high
school eleven by a score Of $40.
However, Pullman was beaten in
points only. Her spirit is just as
poppy and undaunted as it ever was.
The Pullman rooters were able to
root to the last minute, although the
score was in favor of the opposite
side. In the first half only seven
points were made, but in the second
half 26 points were piled up by the
visitors.
Both sides played a hard clean
game. There were many rooters
from Moscow, and nearly all the
Pullman students were on the side
lines. The Pullman boys, however,
were greatly handicapped by the loss
OF some of their fist string men and
substitutes were called upon. AL
though inexperienced, the new mem
bers of the Pullman eleven are turn
ing out to be 1.-The regular stuff
and the old members are playing
better than ever.
The team is gaining rapidly in eX-
perience and hopes to win the re-
naming games on its schedule.

Many schools, churches and
chapels were Suilt throughout Arme-
MIA by the enterprise of the mission
aries. During the war most of these
we're burned ind the converts who
would not renounce Christianity
were brutally murdered. MANY stu
dents ana pensioners, whom DR..
Brown knew personally, were MUIR
dered.
He asks America to help the m,s
sionaries in their work. There is a
great opportunity, for the Turkish
government has crumbled. DR..
Brown hopes that work may be done
among the Mohammedans themselves
in the future.

MOSCOW HIGH PAINTS LETTERS

On Friday morning the high school
students, upon approaching the
school grounds, were confronted by
large, glazing white NJ H. S. letters,
which only added to the miserable
appearance of the cement walks
which lead to the high school build
ing. Their appearance caused many

guilty parties are not known.
