| The INTERESTINGLY School Twilight
baseball league is fast forming and
several of the Sunday Schools al
ready have their teams shaped-up
and nearly ready to launch their
attack on the other teams for the
championship of the county. The
schedule of games will be announced
next week, and the first games will
be played the following week, just
after school is out and the books lay
ed aside for the summer.
The first of the "Y" tennis-courts
is now in use and the first games
were played Monday afternoon by
Dick Yost and C. w. Koyl, "Y.M."
Secretary, with Yost getting the
small end of the horn. Effort will be
put forth to get some business men
to offer a loving cup or suitable
prize for the best single player in
the town and one for the two best
doubles players. The winners will be
found after the running-off of a
tournament under the leadership Of
the "Y" athletic department. AS fast
as the demand for tennis courts in
creases, and warrents, the "Y" will
get one or two more courts ready
and gradually improve them each
day with watering, rolling and level
| ing.
OF fundamental and primary i'm
portance to the 'Y", as we'll as to
the entire life of the Community is
the annual meeting of the Y. M. c.
A. on Friday evening of this week in
the "Y" at seven-thirty o'clock sharp.
The strongest officers possible must
be elected from the floor of the meet
ing, as we'll as eight men to- the
| Board of Directors, the Board which
controls the policy of the Associa-
ton and elects the General Secretary
each year.
The debt Of the ''Y" building has
been reduced twenty-five hundred
dollars lately making the balance
seventy-five hundred. Efforts are be-
ing made to collect in at once the re-
mainder of the seven thousand due
this year of the $21, 900 pledged in
order that the debt may be still fur
Their reduced and retired as fast as
possible and the running expenses OF
the Association not impaired. This
Summer will see the real trial of the
"Y" finances and everyone in the
Community should have some vital
part in furthering the work with and
for the boys and girls of Payette.
A strong Y. M. C. A. here will be a
powerful magnet in bringing families
here. 1t has been well said and writ
ten that: "Ill fares the land to hast
ening ills of prey, where wealth ac-
cumulates, and, BOYS and GIRLS
decay" By our work for and with
the boys and girls of this community
let us turn all eyes unto Payette, and
then watch Payette grow and truly
prosper.
The "Wic-Wic" Club at the "Y"
is the latest II you want to know
something about this live club of
girls you will have to ask one or
more of the following: Pauline Pence
President; Violette Swank, Vice
President; LaDona Swank; Eva Will
son; Dorothy Reed; Mildred Holmes;
Lucille Loughrey, Sec.-Treas.; Hazel
Brubaker; Esther Orcutt; and Edna
Blomstrom This is the one club and
affair in the new and virile "Y" that
the General Secretary knows nothing
about and with all his threats and
tactful inquiries has failed to secure
any information about. Miss Rawl-
ings the "Y' woman is MUM" and
so are these girls. A big, rollicking
night of nights, to be called the
MAY FROLIC" is also on foot, c.
w. X. learns, for girls and women
only, and he has already been told
that his presence is not desired at
this particular girls function of fun
and pun. Alright gals, keep your
old "Frolic'' and remember that it
is boys and men only at the STAG
MIX" early in May. All girls caught
peeping will have their pretty locks
locked
