/. Although their lines extend much
farther to the westward than do those
of the Americans. the Japanese have
only a short voyage from Vladivo-
stok to their own country, so that
their evacuation of Siberia may be
completed early in the spring.
I. AS retreats are always highly dan
gerous to an army, involving sacri-

effort may be made to obtain protec-
ton for the retiring troops by an
agreement with the bolshevik leaders
in Siberia.
Gen. Seminoff. with his $4,000 Cos

face the steady eastward advance of
the bolshevik forces. At present he
holds a considerable portion of the

HIGH SCHOOL
GLEAN|NGS

On a muddy field, last Saturday,
the Intermountain Institute football
team gave the P. H. S. warriors quite
a surprise by defeating them 19 to 6
In the first few minutes of play the
Payette squad put the ball over the
line for their only touchdown, and
after that were not able to stop the
forward passes worked by their op-
ponents 10 a great advantage. The
individual Star of the game was
Walker, Institute left end, who show
ed remarkable speed in carrying
the ball. The fact that the Institute
played three ineligible players was
a great cause for the outcome of the
game. Payette was unfortunate in
losing Lester Patton, star full-back,
who was seriously injured in the
game with broken knee-cap.
Three teams were organized in the
High School to canvass the town
Armistice Day for the Red Cross
membership drive. The students on
these teams were excused from
school Thursday.
The football team, accompanied by
many other students, attended the
Idaho-Utah game at Boise Thursday.
The members of the team were for
tunate in obtaining free seats on the
side lines.
At an assembly Friday, Vernon
Patch gave short talk about the
University of Idaho and it's Football
team. He gave examples of the fight
ing spirit of the school and urged
students to attend the State Uniyer-
sity.
On account of the American Le-
gion entertainment, the Axe Staff
was asked to cancel the reception
planned for the Institute. The Wei
ser Team, however, was taken to
the entertainment and then to the
Legion dance, and everyone seemed
to have a good time. The High School
regretted very much that the recep-
tion could not be given but it was
thought best to cooperate with the
Legion

LIQUOR VENDOR

Last Saturday evening the Sheriffs

part of town, resulting in the arrest
of w. H. Wright, with several fruit
jars filled with moonshine whiskey
in his possession. The car Ia new

arraigned before Judge Luther on a
charge of violating the Prohibition

TWO INJURED IN FOOTBALL

Lester Patton and Oscar Grace
both received injuries in the foot
ball game here last Saturday while
playing with the Weiser Institute
boys. Young Patton received a bro
ken knee-cap and was taken to the
Y NJ. C. A. where a doctor was sum-
moned and reduced the fracture,
placing his leg in a plaster paris cast.
He was removed to his home the
next day. 1t will be some time how
ever before he can use the injured
leg. Young Grace received a dis
located wrist, requiring the atten-
ton of a Physician also. Just how
the accidents occurred would re-
quire some one better posted on foot
ball than the Editor of the Enter
prise. It's wonder that more are
not injured as it seems to be part
of the game to tramp the stuffin'
out of the other fellow.

A COMPLETE SURPRISE

When Mrs. L. C. Moore returned
to her home on Lovers Lane last
Friday promptly at twelve O'Clock
and hurried into the house to pre-
pare dinner for herself and Mr..
Moore. she was confronted with the
dining table pulled out full length,
loaded to the guards with every con-
ceivable good thing to eat, steaming
hot; covers laid for 16 and not a
soul in sight. Her bewilderment was
somewhat relieved however when
she entered the bedroom to lay off
her wraps and found it full of house
breakers, who. with Mr.. Moore had
planned the little joke. The joke was
all explained when a large cake was
discovered in the center of the table
decorated with 54 little candles. 1t
was then that Mrs Moore realized
she was entering upon the road to
another milestone in life's career.
It proved to be a very pleasant oc-
casion and the remainder of the day
was spent in jolly good time. Those
present besides Mr.. and Mrs. Moore
were: Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. W. Hezeltine,
Mr.. and Mrs. W. w. Thompson, Mr..
and Mrs Hutch. Mr. and Mrs. Joe
Platz, Miss Mildred Platz, Miss Ger
tie Cregor, Mrs. Geo. Barker and
