Council Met Tuesday

At the meeting of the Village
Board last Tuesday evening there
were good many matters brought
up for discussion and referred to
the various committees of the coun-
Gil. 1t was decided to have the old
grandstand torn down at the ball
park and rebuilt if suitable loca-
tion could be secured. Plans are
on foot to some time change the
location of the road at the lower
end of town, so the grandstand
would have to be situated at place
that would not interfere with this
new road.
The building of the cement walk
in the lower end of town was also
discussed and referred to the proper
committee for action. The resid-
ents have until the first of May to
get construction work under way.
Most of those who have property
along this proposed new sidewalk
are very anxious to have 1t built
as they realize how greatly it will
improve their property.
The matter of securing a hose
cart for the school, house hill was
referred to the fire and building
committee. This committee was
ordered to secure a hose cart at
once and to get prices on fire
alarm for the town.
1t was suggested that an invita-.
ticn be extended to the "Get-To-
gether-Club" to call a meeting for
the purpose Of starting movement
toward improving the strip Of roae
between the town limits and tht
mouth of Wandcheer gulch. Thi
is one of the heaviest Travelled
pieces of road tributary to Kend
rick and is probably in the poores
shape of any. 1t needs attention
badly.
The Treasurer's report showed tn
finances of the town to be in
f1ourishlng condition.

For The Bench Farmers

County Agent Fletcher will be in
Kendrick next Thursday afternoon
for the purpose of holding squir-
rel poisoning demonstration. The
meeting will be held at the City
Hall and will be started at o'clock
sharp. All farmers who are inter-
ested in the destruction of the
squirrel pest are urged to be
present. Meetings will be held on
the various ridges tributary to
Kendrick in the near future.
Mr.. Fletcher states that it is very
important that everyone interested
in squirrel poisoning be present at
the meeting so that active work
might be started during the early
part of the season.
A meeting will also be held al
Juliaetta on Friday of next week.

Mrs. Louisa Callison

The death of Mrs. Louisa Callison,
wife of S. P. Callison, occurred at
Moscow hospital last Sunday, the
cause of her death being cancer.
She had been in the hospital over
two weeks before death came to
relieve her sufferings.
Mrs. Callison was born in Ken
lucky in 1855. She married Mr..
Callison in Kansas nearly fifty years
ago and was a devoted wife and
mother. In 1888, she and her hus-
band moved west and purchased
land on American ridge where they
made their home, until few years
ago when they retired from active
work on the farm to make their
home in Kendrlck.
Mrs. Collisions first thought was
always for her family and the inter-
ests of her friends. Her generous,
kindly disposition was demonstrate
ed during the activities of the Red
Cross while the war was in pro-
gress. Probably no other person
in this community worked as hard
as unselfishly, as devotedly as did
Mrs. Callison. Every idle minute
that she could spare from her house
work found her sewing, either al
home or at the Red Cross rooms
In this work she was leader ir
the community. A beautiful Rec
Cross floral emblem from the loca
branch of the organization was tht
last tribute from her friends wit
worked with her during the trying
times of the war.
The funeral was held from tn
Grice chapel, Tuesday afternoon a
2 o'clock and the services conducte'
at the cemetery at 2:30, by Rev. H
o. Perry. A large number o
friends from Kendrick, America
ridge and Troy attended the funeral
Mrs. Callison is survived by he
husband, one son, Ben Callison an
one daughter. Mrs. Frank Roberts

Baseball Meeting

At the baseball meeting held at
the town hall last Friday evening,
it was decided to organize a team
here this season. Manager Wilcox
was not reelected for this season,
but simply retained from last sea-
son. He reported the very pleasing
news that there was over forty
dollars in the treasury from last
years games. This is somewhat
better than a decfit and will be a
start toward financing the team.
The same suits that the boys had
last year will be made to serve one
more year, as it was estimated new
suits for the team now would cost
about 5000. Manager Wilcox is
writing a number of the neighbor-
ing towns to see if it is not possible
to form a six-team league. This
would make it comparatively
simple matter to secure games as
the schedule for the season woulC
be made up before the playing sea
son began.

Delbert Riggle Returned

Delbert Riggle, who has been IN
the U. S. Army for over two years,
returned home Tuesday night. He
spent six months of his service in
Manila and the rest of the time in
Siberia. 1t took him three months
of travel to get home. He kept a.
record of the distance travelled be-
tween stops and it totaled twelve
thousand miles. He was on the
water eighty days. The there
mometer registered so degrees be-
low zero when he left Siberia and
was l2O degrees above when he
reached Manila.
Delbert says the natural resources
IN the part of Siberia where he was
stationed are very extensive and
agricultural possibilities almost un-
limited. The people, however. are
very ignorant and have no partic-
ular incentive to work or raise more
than just what they have to have in
order to exist.
He said there was more fighting
there between the Americans and
peasants than the papers would lead
one to believe. Night raids on the
American camps were common.
Two different times men who were
doing sentry duty with him were
shot to death. Delbert received
a wound in one leg.
The Gazette would be very glad
to publish articles written by HIM.
telling some of his experiences and
the customs of the Russians and the
conditions in that country. They
would be very interesting to the
readers of this paper.

Where They Are At

Once upon time a man entered
a watchmaker's shop to have his
watch repaired. "When may l
have my watch?" asked the man.
I'm about six week." answered the
matchmaker. why the delay?"
the man inquired. "There is a
great scarcity of handspring re-
pairers," said the matchmaker.
And the man Jared forth, and slip
ped and fell upon the pavement,
which, owing to the scarcity of
shovelers, was icy.
The man tried to telephone to
the automobile service station, to
get his car, which had been promis-
ed to him that afternoon, but the
foreman told him that there was a
shortage of mechanics sand that he
could not have his car for two
weeks. 1t took the man 20 minutes
to get the service station by tele.
phone, owing to the shortage OF
telephone operators.
"Well." said the man "the sub
way is crowded: the streets are re-
plete with humnity; the restaurant:
brim with human beings. Surel,
the population is not dwindling.'
And he went to his Office ane
opened his mail. And it came tt
him, as in vision, for he said: I"
know what all these ex-watch
makers, ex-snow shovelers, ex
mechanics and ex-telephone opera
tors are doing. They are in tn

led, press agent business. - New

Poultry Cullin8 Great Work

The poultry culling demonstra-
tion given last Monday afternoon at
the j. G. Hamil place was bowling
success. Over one hundred people
gathered for the purpose of hearing
Prem Moore tell how to pick the
high-producing hens from the flock.
Conditions were ideal for the
demonstration. 1t was beautiful
day and the Hsmil ranch was locat-
ed just right to make it conven-
lent point to be reached either from
Juliaetta or kendrick. 1t is an
ideal place for chicken ranch as
it is we'll drained and is situated 50
that it gets plenty of sunshine.
Wm. McClelland of Southwick
brought coop of chickens from his
flock to be used for demonstration
purposes. He keeps an egg record
Of his hens, so was able to verify
Mr.. Moore's statements. Mr.. Moore
picked one of the poorest egg-pro-
ducing hens from his pen, told why
he knew it to be low producer and
then had the hen passed around
through the crowd so that everyone
could have an opportunity to put
into practice the points by which
the culling process is carried on.
He then picked high poduclng
hen from Mr.. Hamll's flock and
showed the difference between it's
bodily structure and that of the
first hen. After a comparison of
number of low producers and high
prodcuers, most of those who were
interested could easily distinguish
the difference in the fowls and had
no trouble in picking out the culls.
Some of those who "came to scott j,
remained to pray" Mr.. Moore
picked out two "culls" from the
flock and then chose one high-pro-
ducing hen. These three hens were
killed and dressed. An autopsy
showed beyond shadow of doubt
that Mr.. Moore was strictly ION to
his job" The two culls showed no
signs of ever having had any inten-
tion of laying, while the hen pick
ed as a high-producer was uncom-
fortably full of eggs.
County Agent Fletcher accompan-
led Mr.. Moore and he stated that
the demonstration was one of the
most successful from the standpoint
OF numbers, ever held in the state.
Mr.. Moore culled Mr.. HamiPs en-
tire flock, numbering 375 hens.
Out of this number he cuIled about
so low-producers, which. he said
was very good average.

Death of Rev. Emmel

Word was received here in a let
ter written to Mrs. Dammarell by
Mrs. H. B. Emmel. that an official
cablegram, just received, announc-
ed the death of Rev. Emmel, who
was a Y. M. C. A. secretary in ST.
IBERIA. Nothing except that his
death was sudden. was communi-
Gated to Mrs. Emmel in the cable
gram. She had received a letter
from her husband a short time ago
stating that he would be home in
April. The official news of his
death came soon after she received
this letter.
Mr.. Emmel was pastor of the
Methodist church here prior to hi:
going into Y. M. C. A. work about
two years ago. He was a splendid
fellow and made friends every
where. His death seems little
short of a tragedy as he leaves {
wife and four children One o.
the boys wrote to George Atchisor
last week and in the letter he said
"Oh. joy! daddy is coming home. !"

Sturdevant's House Burned

Last Tuesday evening at about
7:3O o'clock the home of the Leon
ard Sturdevant family caught fire
and was totally destroyed. The
house was located on bench on the
lower end Of American ridge just
short distance from town. Before
assistance could be secured the
building was a mass of flames.
Some of the household goods were
saved, but greater part of them
were burned.
The origin of the fire Is not
definitely known. 1t started in the
upstairs rooms and was discovered
by one of the children who was
playing outside and saw the flames
through one of the upper windows.
MIR. Sturdevant said he believed a
defective tlue was the cause of the
fire.
The house was two-story struc.
ture and at the present price OF
lumber would cost considerable te
replace. Although an old house il
was substantially built. 1t was In
sured to the amount of $4,000 anC
the household goods carried $500
insurance. There is no other build
ing on the place that can be useC
for living quarters.

Death of Ben Ward

Ben Ward, a former resident of
Potlatch ridge, died at Lewiston
last Monday from cancer of the
stomach. He had made his home in
Lewiston for the past twelve years,
but prior to that time resided on
Potlatch ridge, on the place now
owned by Enoch Harrison, which he
homesteaded. His father, Matt
Ward, was one of the first home.
steaders of Potlatch ridge, having
homesteaded what is now the Ber
Hoffman place, in the early pioneer
days.

development Of resources Of the archi-
pelago as that which is offered the
visitor at the carnival city.
In the evenings the carnival becomes
the center of Philippine and oriental
social activity. A huge open air audi
torium serves for the elaborate nightly
balls. and on its mammoth floor thou
sands of couples swing together to the
strains Of music furnished by the ia.
nous Constabulary and other military
bands. Probably at no other place in
the world will one see an equally i'm
pressive cosmopolitan spectacle.
The Manila visitor who can plan his
trip to arrive at the Pearl of the Orient
for carnival time may well deem him
self fortunate.
