HARRY WYATT WAS BRUISED
WHILE TRIMMING TREES

Harry Wyatt was injured last
Saturday afternoon while trimming
shade trees at the home of Irving
d. Sill on north Elm street. The
branches of the trees interfered with
the telephone wires and it became
necessary to cut out some of the
limbs.
Mr.. Wyatt was standing in a
crotch of the tree about 30 feet from
the ground, knee hooked over limb,
and had partially sawed another
limb when a gust of wind blew the
partially sawed limb and it fell on
Wyatt's knee, pinning him to the
tree, where he had to remain for
two hours before he could be rescued,
in spite of the fact that men were
working all the time in an attempt
to get him to the ground.
Ray Markham, mail carrier, first
attempted the rescue, but after a
considerable time spent in the tree
had to be assisted to the ground him
self at which time he collapsed due
to his strained position in the tree
and exposure to cold rain during
the noon hour as result of which
his clothing was soaked. However,
Markham was able to walk again
in a few hours after getting warm
and dry and resting.
Irving Sill next attempted the
rescue and with the help of another
man, so tied the branches of the
tree that Wyatt could be taken to
the ground He was given medical
attention at the Sill home where he
remained over night. The next
morning he was taken to his home
where he is suffering from bruises
but no broken bones.

A LOCAL STUDIO SECURES
THE AGENCY FOR STRADIVARl

One of the latest monographs on
the market is the Stradivara named
after Antonio Stradivari because of
the similarity of the sounding board
of the Stradivarius violin and the
sounding board or tone chamber of
the Stradivari monograph, which is
made of edge grained spruce such
as is used in the fine violins and in
pianos. This particular wood has the
quality of giving a richer timbre to
musical tone than any other ma
terial. The sound board Of this
phonograph, made of this edge grain
ed spruce, extends the full width and
depth of the cabinet and is free from
contact with any metal, swinging
clear at the back and sides, allowing
the fullest vibration.
Selecting the name Stradivari for
the name of their machine, the
makers strive, like Stradivari of old,
the master craftsman of violin
making. to make their instruments
perfect aMd to make them the high
est embodiment OF musical craftman-
ship uong monographs. Each step
of the manufacture is systematized
for quality production. The work
men are picked and specially trained
for their work.
This machine is manufactured by
the Pacific Phonograph Co. of Port
land, Oregon, and distributed through
the Brauer Frank Co. of Portland,
a six million dollar corporation. The
tone chamber is patented and there
fore cannot be found in any other
instrument. The machine is made
in the regular standard phonograph
styles and in period designs. There
are six different styles of the ma
chine, each style having a different
price and name. Melody" "Har-
mony," Chopin" beethoven" "Mo-
zart," and "Vcrdi" are the names of
the styles, the Verdi" being in
period design priced the highest.
There are nov Two agencies
for this phonograph in Stevens
county, the Baker Studio of Colville
and the Chewelah Drug Company.

John F. Peddycord, son of G. w.
Peddycord of the Bank of Colville,
who is attending Kemper Military
School, Boonville, Mo-, is one of the
star players on the conference cham
pion eleven. Peddy, as he is popu-
larly known by the cadets, went into
football this season with the deter
mination to win his place and help
win the championship. He displayed
excellent ability and won his place
on the team with ease in all the
games played. Peddycord always
carried the ball for gain. On going
to Kemper in 1917, he went out for
basketball. In 1920 he won his place
on the first team; in the same year
he made the first team in track and
broke the Missouri State Conference
record for the low hurdles. His
coach and all the Judges said that he
was the premier hurdler of the con-

COOPERATION OF LEGION
IDEA OF COUNTY UNIT

The first meeting of the different
posts of Stevens county for the pur
pose Of organizing county unit of
the American Legion was held in
Chewelah, on the 2nd day of Decem-
Der, with delegates present from
Chewelah, Colville and Valley posts,
and with promises of cooperation and
support from Northport and Spring
dale
The need of this county unit has
been felt for some time in Stevens
county, as it has been very difficult
for the individual posts to carry on
the work of this organization without
assistance and cooperation from the
other posts in the county.
The local post has found it a diff
cult undertaking for them to handle
the different celebrations, which it is
the peculiar province for them to
undertake-for example, Memorial
day, Fourth of July and Armistice
day, or other occasions which should
be taken care of by this body, and
it is felt that if the different posts
will cooperate and work for one big
celebration for the entire county on
these days much more good could be
accomplished with less effort if the
different posts will unite and hold
the celebration at point most agree
able to all of the posts concerned,
and this post having charge of the
celebration can receive aid and help
from the other posts, and by joining
their numbers and efforts both the
community in general and the DIFF
ferent posts will receive much more
benefit on these different occasions.
For instance, it has been felt that
during the coming year if the Val
ley post would entertain the people
and Legion of the other posts on
such day as Washington's birth
day or Memorial day, and meetings
be held at Northport and Springdale
when occasions seem best, and Che
welah take charge of the 4th of
July celebration and Colvile the Ar
mistice day program that much more
success will be obtained and better
feeling will result among the mem
bers of the Legion and the public in
general will receive much more bene-
fit and enjoyment from the combined
efforts of all, than has been the case
from the efforts of the local posts in
the past.
This idea of the county unit has
met with favor wherever discussed
and there is no doubt but that the
plan will take some more definite
form in the very near future, and
its good results will readily be seen.
The new county officers have been
invited to Colville on December II
to attend the regular meeting, and
it is expected that the Valley post
soon after the first of the year will
be the host to the county, and a big
celebration is being talked of, which
will possibly be held on Washington's
birthday.
The lists of county officers and
committeeman were published last
week.
