DEAD OK FLAT

Mrs Oakley's Telephone, the
Home Talent Play given by the la.
dies of the Park Improvement Club.
Friday evening, May 14th, merited
the large audience which greeted its
production. The play was full of
comedy and kept the audience in
laughter throughout the perform
ance. The individual acting was par
excellent, each lady being Star
in her role.
The play was given under the di-
rection of Mrs. Tom Heslup who
deserves her full share of credit.
The following made up the cast:
Mrs. Roy Burrell, Mrs Walter Davis
Mrs. E. w. Tomlin and Miss Mabel
Smith.
Between acts the audience was
entertained with Scotch Ballads, rem
dered by Mrs. NJ. S. Wyard of Seat
tie, which were greatly enjoyed.
Ice cream cones were served after
the entertainment from which a
goodly sum was realized by the
Club.

painful but the doctor says he is do

CHAUTAUQUA
IS COMING

The first announcement of the
1920 Chautauqua program indicates
that the attractions to be presented
are of the same high standard which
has characterized Ellison-White pro-
grams in the past Music, lecture
and entertainment lovers apparent
ly have much in store for them dur
ing the week of June 29-July 5th,
the Chautauqua dates for Payette.
Lecturers of prominence are:
Judge George D. Alden of Massachu-
setts; Judge Fred G. Bale of Ohio;

with a spectacular costumed lecture
on the Orient; G. Whitfield Ray, F.
r. G. S., for fourteen years on ex-
ploration work in South America,
and E. B. Fish, the famed foe of
agitators in the Northwest.
A feature attraction which var
les from the regular line of Chau>
tauqua events is the production OF
the big New York Dramatic success,
"Kindling," by the Maurice Browne
Players on the fifth night. After
several years of band concerts this
will undoubtedly be welcome
change to most Chautauqua 'fans." +"
The music gives promise of an in,
teresting week Mary Adel Hays,
the New York soprano whom ELI
son-White brought to the South and
West in 1919, is to return again.
This year she comes as soloist with
Raul Pereira, the Portuguese violinist

ing a group of native Maori Singers,
the only organization of its kind in
America, with a lecture on New Zea-

CAMP GROUND
DEDICATED

The Payette Tourist Camp ground
was the scene of a large gathering
of Payette people Tuesday evening
who congregated to participate in a
real feed and jollification to dedi-
cate the grounds. 1t was a great sur
prise to NOSE of them upon arriving
to find the camping place so COM
pIctely equipped. Two large shower
baths and toilets, wash house with
stove, tubs, benches, wash boards and
registering place for visitors; all
kinds of campfire equipment, car
washing platform; the grounds cleo
tric lighted, water piped to all
buildings; nicely painted signs and
two large tables and benches. These
equipments with the beautiful maple
shade trees and carpet of blue grass
the camp ground presents a very
homelike place-one that we are
not afraid will be outclassed any
where. Mr.. Graft was the main spoke
in the wheel in getting a donation for
a greater part of the material and
labor in equipping the place and also
doing about four days work himself.
The howl for Camp Ground will
no longer be heard. About o'clock
the entertainment committee, COM
posed of ]. L. Wells, Tom Smith and
Earl Farber, sounded the dinner
horn which lined up the entire crowd
who passed by the table spread with
a real dutch lunch, cafeteria style,
with plate in hand to help yourself
to your hearts content. After the big
feed Attorney John H. Norris gave a
short talk which was followed by a
short business meeting by the MEM
bers.
1t was a very enjoyable evening
which we understand will be repeat
ed quite often during the summer.

MANY ATTEND REVIVAL
IL PROFESSIONS OF FAITH

Evangelist ]. E. Barbour preached
powerful sermon Friday evening
at the Church of God declaring the
Word of God that the wages of sin
is death" should alone save the world
Rev. Barbour said that:
Tonight you are working for
Jesus Christ or the Devil"
"The Devil wants you to be a kid
gloved Christian. Many men are so
low the Devil is ashamed of them"
THE Devil is liar, a cheat, and
fraud. If l am going to be a sinner
want the world to know it, and if
I am going to be a Christian, l want
to be an out and out man for Cod"
when the Church is gone the
world is gone"
"a sinner has absolutely nothing
for which to live"
There are more Christian women
than Christian men. A woman ought
to adore the gospel more than any
other creature. In India a woman is
less valuable than a cow"
Sunday was great day. From
morning until night there were in
teresting spiritual meetings with in
spring talks, prayers, and testimon-
les. There was a large congregation
at the Married Peoples meeting Sun
day afternoon. And Sunday night the
bethel was filled to overflowing.
The meetings continue to grow in
interest and are being held each eve
ming at 1880 o'clock. Thus far there
have been IL professions of faith.
The public is invited. Friday cottage
prayer meetings are being held in
the various sections of the city and
you are invited to the one in your
district.

FRANK BANNISTER

Frank Bannister was born in Iowa
in June 1850. and later moved with
his parents to Kansas. About the
year 1850 he came with his mother
and two brothers to Idaho, settling
on a homestead taken by his mother
on Little Willow Creek where they
remained until eleven years ago
when his mother died. Then he
came to Payette and was united in
marriage to Anna F. Stevens. He
at this time purchased the Frank
Creighton home on Lovers Lane
where they made their home until
the time of his death. Mr.. Bannister
health had been failing for some
time and the latter part of April he
went to Arizona thinking to find
relief, but the dread disease, the
great white plague, had too firm a
hold and the end came on Saturday,
May the Sth. His remains were brot
back to Payette where the funeral
services were held from the home
at 1880 Wednesday, May 18th, con
Quoted by Rev. H. K. Wallis, pastor
of the Methodist Church. Besides a
wife he leaves to mourn his depart
ure three brothers and one sister. OF
the deceased we can say he was a
man of good standing In the com
munity. He was honest and upright
in all his dealings and will be missed
by many friends in this vicinity.

TO COMBAT THE
GODDLING MOTH

Quite number of the growers
have arranged with Professor Long
ley of the Experimental Station of
the University of Idaho to do some
experimental work with the coddling
moth in this locality. Mr.. Longley is
here now and has the work nicely
under way. He has secured quite a
number of worms, or larya and has
them in cages under glass where he
can easily note their progress. He is
experimenting on the Fruitland
Bench, at Crystal Bottom and at
the Lowery orchard on the Heights.
At the Lowery place they are in ad,
vance of the other places. According
to the test being made Mr.. Longley
says it will be about II to Il days
before the first moth will make her
appearance, which would indicate the
first crop of worms will begin their
work in about three weeks. 1t is a
good plan to keep tab on these pests
to know just when to apply the spray
to receive the best results. Mr.. Long
ley is making his headquarters at
the Farm Bureau office 1t would ba
well to consult him from time to
time regarding this matter.

WHAT SHALL We
Do ABOUT II?

The question of paving the streets
of Payette is now one of the mali
topics for conversation. The PROPOSE
tion has been brought up before the
Mayor and City Council at different
times and also taken up by the Com.
mercial Club, but so far, nothing def
mite has been arrived at. At the regu-
lar meeting of the City Council Mon
day evening about fifty of the busi-
ness men and property owners met
for the purpose of discussing the
proposition and if possible arrive at
conclusions and a definite plan of
action. From the representation at
this meeting there is absolutely no
question but what the large majority
of the business men and property
owners effected by the proposed i'm
provement district are in favor of
paving, but considerable cold water
was thrown on the meeting by some
of the larger property holders who
say it is an imposition on the part
of the business men and others to
impose the expense upon the owners
at this time. After considerable dis
cussion City Attorney John H. Norris
outlined the only procedure accord
ing to law in the matter under the
present conditions which was to
bring before the City Council a petit
tion signed by 70 per cent of the
property holders effected by the
paving of streets. When this is done
action may be taken by the city au
thorities.
1t would seem that the property
owner who has business houses leas-
ed and expects to keep them occupied
is standing in his own light to oppose
permanent street improvement or
any other Improvement that will
make their property and the town
attractive to business men who. are
seeking lications The occupant of
the building should have some con-
sideration especially when he is
paying the bill. Business houses have
stood idle in Payette and may again
if other cities offer better induce
ments and show more push and pros
perity Payette has kept pace with
other towns so far, and in the lead
in some respects and we are not go
ing to fall behind at this time. Good
permanent improvement is not ex-
travagance 1t is a business PROPOSE
tion and will bring back value re-
ceived. The question of street paving
was brought up years ago and at
that time the same objections advanc-
ed: I'VE are not ready" and since
then we have spent the price of paw
ing in hauling dirt and gravel and
temporary repairs. A petition will be
circulated among the property own
ers and we don't believe they are go
ing to turn it down.

ANOTHER MISTAKE

In last weeks issue we published
the notice of the 50th wedding an,
niversary of Mr.. and Mrs. B. Cupper-
null and stated that the dinner was
given by the ladies of the w. R. c.
This was an error on our part. Mrs.
L. G. Prestel and Mrs. Harold Pres.
tel of Eugene, Oregon, who were
visiting at the Cuppernull home,
prepared the dinner.
