Say buddy, can you beat it, a
chicken supper will be served by
the War Mothers at the Masquer-

dance.
For the Christmas dance the

The best meeting Of the year
was held at the Legion Club
Rooms last night when % Legion
aires were out. The question of
associate memberships was dis
cue sec FRO and con and vote
tai II recJlting in a unanimous
dee sion that the Legion was or
ganized and maintained solely for
ex-service men and that it should
remain on that basis. Further
emphasis was expressed on the
matter of keeping the Legion
Club Rooms free of gambling. It
is thoroughly realized by the Le-
gion members that such practices
are prohibited and in the past
much of the trouble along these
lines has been caused by outsid-
ers. Hereafter the privileges OF
the club room will only be enjoy
ed by non-members at the invita-
ton Of Legion members and at no
time will gambling practices be
permitted there.

Death Claims Frank w. Collins.

The sad news was received thi
morning that Frank w. Collins
had passed away during the nigh
at the Sacred Heart hospital il
Spokane, whence he was taken by
his wife and DR.. j. F. Gist OF
Tuesday with the hope of find
ing relief from an acute kidney
trouble.
Until four days ago Mr.. Collin,
was in normal health, and th'
malady, pronounced kidney gray
Ell, came upon him suddenly ant
there seemed no relief shortsof al
operation. The message announc
ing his death did not state wheth
er the operation had been per
formed.
The remains will be brought tt
Nezperce tomorrow (Friday) anS
funeral arrangements will bt
made after their arrival.
The deceased, who was 81
years of age, was born in Illinois
and came west in 1908 and short
ly thereafter engaged in farming
in this section. He married Miss
Ethel Booth, daughter of Senator
and Mrs. G. w. Booth, of this
city, in 1910 and they spent the
succeeding seven years farming
in southern idaho, thereafter re-
turning to this vicinity and max
ing their home on the Hotaline
homestead quarter northeast OF
town. Two sons were born to Mr..
and Mrs. Collins, and these, aged
six and eight years, and the wife
survive him.
His father resides at Myrtle
Idaho, and he has a brother and
three sisters living in Illinois
He was a member of the local
camp Of the Woodmen of the
World.
Frank Collins was q good citi-
zen, industrious and fair in his
dealings with men. He loved his
family and devoted his best ef-
forts to their welfare. His un-
timely end is sad blow to his
flowed ones; it brings distress tc
the community that knew him
and the sympathy which woulc
heal if it could wells up and goes
out to the sorely bereaved.

P. M. Harding Leads Electors.

The official report Of the vote
given the four Republican presi-
Dental electors in Idaho puts P.
NJ. Harding of Nezperce in tho
lead with 91,351 votes, Harry O.
McDougall, of Pocatello, second
with 8S,457, Mrs. Robert McCrea,
of Standpoint third, with 1920,
and R. j. Comstock, Of Rexburg,
fourth, with S7,959.
A lively rivalry has arisen
among the quartet as to which
one shall be given the honor of
delivering Idaho's Republican
vote to the electoral college when
that body convenes in Washing
ton for casting up the vote. That
our fellow townsman, P. M.
Harding, has first claim to this
honor is clearly evident, for the
reasons that he received hand
some majority over either of his
colleagues, that none have been
more faithful nor jealous in their
support Of the party than he, and
his kinship Of our president-elect
is consideration that not only
his own community but the state
should appreciate the value OF.
Lewis county stands out
strongly in her appeal for this
honor to be conferred upon Perry
M. Harding.

Geo. Reinhardt, Booster.

Geo. f. Reinhardt dropped into
this office Monday and paid for
nine subscriptions to The Herald
These include local members OF
his family and brothers and SIS
ters back in Illinois, his old home
state. Just little present nc
was making to the folks, was his
way Of putting it; but in reality
the act means much more and II
is suggestive of the spirit OF the
man toward his home town and
community. He appreciates wila'
a newspaper means to the locality
in which it is published. He is
glad to stand his share Of the ex-
pense of propagating the up
building influence Of the COM
munity paper. He has been an
upbuiider Of this neighborhood
since he set foot in it some quar-
ter Of century ago, and his SEED
are of the same quality. Nothing
fishy or noisy about George, but
he is solid and safe: the sort OF
citizen that anchors this y. >. A.
to it's firm foundation and keeps
it standing four-square to storms
that impotently beat upon Its
shores.

Nezperce Takes First Basketball
Game.

The Nezperce High School bas-
ketball team defeated the team
from Lapwai High last Saturday
night on the local floor by score
of 36-31. 1t was hard-fought
game and at no time was the vic
tory cinched for either side.
Hayes, the Lapwai captain,
started the grand march for the
visitors with a basket from back
Of center. This was followed by
a series Of long range basket
shooting from which the local
team dragged itself with the
short end Of a 17-16 score. A
shift in the Nezperce lineup ear
ly in the first half held in check
the landslide which Lapwai had
so well started. The local boys
failed to show the least signs Of
their last season form during the
entire. 20 minutes Of play, altho
there was a marked improvement
in basket shooting.
After the intermission Lapwai
was the first to score, thus gain
ing a 3-point lead, and with little
variation the score see-sawed
thru most of the last half. At the
middle of this period, which was
the only time the Nezperce team
showed its usual ability to carry
the ball, the local boys scored
four baskets in succession and
with them salted down the bacon
since Lapwai was unable to equal
the lead thus gained, The final
count showed Nezperse SO and
Lapwai 81.
1t was glaringly evident that
Nezperce was playing {its first
matched game Of the season be-
cause their floor work could not
be compared with the systematic
team play exhibited last year.
This was noticeable in the inabll-
ity of our guards to break up the
opponents advances as well as
the lack Of the offensive to func-
tion as a scoring machine.
Noah Hayes, the Indian captain
of Lapwai's five, was the bright
light and except for the never
ceasing fight of Elbert Stellmon,
the Nezperce captain, no member
of the local team merits special
mention.
The scoring for the two teams
was as follows:
Lapwai-Field baskets, Park
ms, 2; Calkins, 8; Hayes, 5;
Shaw. 4. Free throws, Parklns,
Is.
Nezperce-Field baskets, Ell
bert Stellmon, 6; Farrar 4; Gam,

MR.. CUPID STILL
ON ACTIVE LIST.
G. Rey Reinhardt and Miss Edith
M. Smith and Lester G.
Meiners and Miss Ruth
M. Smathers In
His Net.

AT the home Of the bride s par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. w. j. Smith,
in this city, at 600 o CLOCK on the
morning OF December is, was
solemnized the marriage Of G.
Rey Reinhardt and Miss Edith
Mae Smith. In the presence of
the immediate relatives OF the
two principals the ceremony was
performed by Rev. Geo. H. Ellis
of the Christian church. The
pretty bride was becomingly at
tired in a dress Of blue silk and
the groom wore conventional
black.
The wedding was beautiful III
its simplicity, and happily the
young pair bade their well-wish-
ers adieu as they took the early
morning train for a ten days
visit to Spokane and Coeur d.
Alene.
Thus again, in this union, are
two Of our best known and most
highly esteemed prairie families
joined. The bride, who is one of
our town S fairest and much adj
mired young ladies, is the eldest
daughter of Sheriff-elect and Mrs
w. j. Smith, recent graduate of
our high school and the possessori
of admirable qualities. The groom
is the second son Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Geo. +. Reinhardt, also recently
graduated from our high school
and, starting out with the "make-
good" evidence sticking out all
over him, he is conducting his
fathers farm east of this city,
and here he will take his bride to
i've happily ever after.
On the 18th instant Lester C.
Meiners and Miss Ruth Marion
5mathers were united in mar
tiage in Lewiston, whittier they
we're accompanied by the groom s
father, Martin Meiners, with this
happy end in view.
There were no frills about the
wedding, just the necessary for
NAL proceedings, and the party
returned to the Meiners home
southwest of this city, where the
young folks will reside through
the winter.
The bride, whose home was for
merly in Clifford, has been q resi-
dent of this section the past Is
months, and her charming per-
sonality and good qualities capti-
waited the young man she now
calls hunsband. He is the young
est son of Martin Meiners, one Of
our best known substantial farm
ers, who has been mother and
father to his three children since
the loss Of his wife some 16 year
ago, and who is to be congratulate
ed upon the success he has attain
ed in this respect.
The Herald extends all good
wishes to these latest victims Of
Cupid's bow and arrows.
