she called you an idling Stacker. Yet,
while you were not in Khaki, you were

remain silent would cause her con-

WENT UP IN SMOKE

The mortgage and note which has
been a burden for so many years to
the Knights of Pythias has been paid
of and last Thursday night Delos
Lodge No. 2s celebrated the occasion
and as a part of the evening entertain
ment burned the note and mortgage
and scattered the ashes to the winds.
The history of the lodge as related
during the evening is one of long hard
struggle to possess their own Castle
Hall. The lodge here was instituted
22 years ago and q number of the
charter members are still living here
and active members. The lodge has
grown to more than hundred men,
bers now and is one OF the strongest
IN the state. 1t Is probably true that
no organization of any kind during
these past 20 years has exerted q
greater Influence for good for the
entire community than Delos Lodge

SELECTING AUTO PARK SITE

The committee appointed by the
commercial club section of the Bust
ness Mems Club reported three possi-
BILE locations. The first choice of the
committee is a block of ground in
Riverside addition near where the
HALEY road enters town. The second
choice is a tract on the south side Of
the Gooding road just beyond the
brick yards. The third selection is
the irregular strip of ground owned by
Mrs. OHare and Mrs. Murphy on the
north side of the tracks. The first and
third selections must be purchased
from their present owners. The
second selection belongs to L. ]. Mott
who offers TO donate the ground.
This is a matter in which every cit
izen of the town is vitality interested
and every one is asked to examine
these three sites before the club meets
next Monday evening and be prepared
to discuss the matter thoroughly.
The third location. the Murphy prop
erty, has the advantage of being
close up to town, a very desirable
feature OF an auto park. 1t has more
possibilities In 1t for the future than
possibly either OF the other two sites.
1t is now rough and unsightiy
piece of ground but its nearness to
town. its location by the river, its
ease of access give it possibilities for
the future not possessed by the other |
sites. This property could in time be |
built up to a most beautiful city park. !
Look all of these locations over and |
help decide this important matter for
the future of our city.
