BOY SCOUTS IN
YOUNG ARMENIA
Strangest Troop of All in Con-
StantjnopIe Being Made Into
Good Citizens.

American Boy Scout training Is aid
ing prominently in the rehabilitation
Of hundreds Of little Armenian boy
refugees from the Turkish massacres,
who have been organized into a scout
troop in COnstantinople as the solution
of one of the most troublesome prob
iems that confronted the Near East Re
lief workers in that city.
Hounded and driven for four years,
having seen their parents and relatives
slaughtered or worse by Turks and
Kurds and themselves forced to beg,
steal or do almost anything to exc out
the harest existence, these boys had
completely lost their moral sense when
they finally found refuge IN the Near
Cast Relief orphanges
The boys had been clad in rags for
so long that they had forgotten how to
take care of clothes. This was a tragedy
when the Near East Relief had need Of
every pair Of shoes and of every suit
of clothes for new boys constantly com
ing in.
Then the boys were organized as
Boy Scouts and given their uniforms.
They began to be careful of their
school clothes as we'll as of their uni
forms.
They had been so often hungry they
had come to steal without compunc-
tlon. When they first entered the or
phanages they continued to steal One
boy stole a purse from his American
teacher. For two or three weeks after
he became a Boy Scout he was obvious
ly uneasy. One day he came to her
with the purse in his hand.
81 don't want to give it back" he
said reluctantly. "But have to. I'm
a Boy Scout now"
To form more scout troops 10 trans
form these little unfortunates into
good citizens, Is one Of the reasons
why the Near East Relief, l Madison
avenue, New York city, is making its
appeal for funds.

the Near East Relief, formerly the
American Committee TOR Armenian and
Syrian Relief, to save as many Of
these people as possible At Eriyan,
the capital of the Armenian republic,
one hot meal is given out daily, and by
this relief alone the city's death rate
has been cut from a thousand daily to
an average of twenty. At Alexandra
pol, where the refugees from Turkish
Armenia were driven by thousands, the
situation is appalling, Miss Dakesan
says. 1t is to avert these wholesale
deaths that Near East Relief is making

WINTER HARD ONE.

Everett Rhoades received
word last Saturday evening that
his band of horses consisting of
81 head, which were placed in
the Selway country near the
Mont, line last fall did not fare
well there on account of the deep
snow and cold weather. Out of
the entire band only four horses
survive, according TO letter
which he received from a friend
in that section. Mr.. Rhoades
stated the horses were all young
animals and weighed around
the 1900 pound mark. Owing
to the scarcity of feed and the
high cost of the same Mr..
Rhoades took the second best
means of saving his horses but
owing to deep snow and cold
weather the horses were either
starved to death or frozen. Mr..
Rhoades wintered several horses
in Cottonwood which cost him
on on average of $50 a head for
feed.

PASS $4,000 MARK.

Automobile licenses issued in
Idaho have passed the $4,000
mark and the number is increas-
ing and will continue TO increase
until October. The lowest pric-
ed license in Idaho is that for the
Ford cars, which is SIS. The
fee probably averages $50 which
makes two-thirds of a million
dollars that have been paid for
automobile licenses so far this
year in Idaho. Washington has
passed the 100000 mark and lie
ense fees there will probably
average SIS. which means more
than 81 100000 that have been
paid for automobile licenses in
our neighhoring state to the
west. These sums ought to
provide some good roads for
both states.

LEWISTON WINS.

Lewiston did it! The city of
Lewiston last week made history
for its little city that will be re-
memhered for years to come by
its citizens as well as outside
points when it made the final
drive to raise $250,000 for half
million dollar hotel. More than
$4,000 was raised on the last
day of the drive and assures
that city of a hotel, second to
none in the country, and one
that will be of as much benefit
to the prairie people as to the
Lewiston citizens themselves.
So well did their plan work in
raising funds for the hotel that
several other cities throughout
the north west have taken SINH
lar steps to raise funds for
buildings.
With perhaps the exception of
the famous Lewiston Hill, Lew
iston will receive more publicity
from their recent undertaking
than from any other movement
ever attempted in that city since
its birth.
The loyal business men and
citizens who stood behind the
movement. and their city, are to
be congratulated on the splendid
success they made it, and other
cities and towns can well afford
to take a lesson in boosting, from
the Snake river metropolis.
Nothing seems impossible when
everyone puts his shoulder to
the wheel.

COTTONWOOD TO
REMAIN IN LEAGUE
LEAGUE WILL CONSIST OF
8 TEAMS-COTTONWOOD
TO GRANGEVILLE.

At a meeting of the various
managers of the Praire Baseball
League held at Grangeville last
Saturday the membership to the
league was increased from six to
eight teams, and under the new
plan Winchester and kooskia
will be admitted to the league.
A representative was present
from each town a member of the
league with the exception OF
kamiah.
Will Remain in League.
kamiah and Cottonwood will
not be excluded from the league
as was intimated in the Idaho
County Free Press of last week
and from all indications it was
not the sentiment of the meeting
at Grangeville to exclude these
two towns.
The article in the Free Press
caused no little comment here
and at kamiah, the result of
which only served to reopen an
old wound of rivalry between
Cottonwood and Grangeville,
which for the past few years has
been dormant and it is our hope
will continue to be so. After
matters had been fully explain
ed to the Cottonwood delegation
the matter was dropped and as
far as Cottonwood is concerned
it is hoped the same friendly
feeling will exist as has been the
case for the past few years.
Open Season at Grangeville.
The first game of the season
will be played at Grangeville be-
tween Grangeville and Cotton
