many years 1t is nexpcable, Also in view OF the fact
that the people who attended the early nauSuras were
compelled to ride by stage carriage or horseback for many
days in the cold before reaching Washington.
Next to the mystery of what caused the date to be
fixed the mystery to why Congress does not submit to
the States constitutional amendment changing the date OF
nauguratons of Presidents to later in the sprng-some
where between April Is and May 49, when better weather
at least higher temperatures, is assured.
The question of a change has been repeatedly before
Congress- but for the statesmen there do not
realize the dangers of March weather to the ncom

come to Washington to witness the inspiring event.

For older and serious people there is another

to control themselves individually That important
thought u.s. what will the finished work of Father Time

What wonders will be worked by human beings as
whole in the thousands perhaps Millions of centuries that
are ahead of us this planet?
To what heights of knowledge justice, power and
inspiration will the human rise eventually?
1t will conquer all MATERIAL difficulties, of course
talking to its neghbors in space controlling this earth and
its climate rgatng every desert draining every swamp
It will eliminate the three sisters, IGNORANCE Pow

What else will the mind of accomplish? Many

went out to gather cocoanuts. TAX
ing with them a pet monkey. They
gathered cocoanuts all day long, heap
ed them in a big pile, and lay Aowu
to sleep under a spreading banyan
tree. One of the soldiers woke up
and decided that he wouldn't trust
his sleeping companions, but would
secure his share OF the cocoanuts at
once. He divided them in Ave piles
and found he had one cocoanut left
over which he gave the monkey. He
took one OF the piles away and hid
Il: rolled the cocoanuts Of the other
four piles back into a single heap
and went back to sleep. Soon the
second soldier awoke and had the
same thought He sorted the remain
ing coconnuts into Ave equal piles and
again there was an odd cocoanut
which he threw to the monkey. He
took one pile aside and heaped the
others into a single pile and went
back to sleep. In due turn the third.
fourth and NTH soldiers all did the
same thing, and each time the mon

the nve soldiers divided the pile
which still remained into Ave equal
shares, and this time there was NOT
cocoanut left over for the monkey.

Bakery Changed Location

The management of the Electric
Bakery changed location this week
and now have headquarters in the
room formerly used as a dining
room for the Hotel Kendrlck. They
have added a cafe to the regular
business, which includes lunch
counter and tables for regular
meals. Lunches will be served at
all hours.
The oven is being moved to a
room IN the rear of the building,
and will be ready for baking the
first of the week.
A back-bar is being made by the
Kendrick Furniture Company, which
will extend the full length of the
lunch counter. When completed it
will be a very attractive part of
the cafe equipment.
The arrangement of the fixtures
gives the room very pleasing ap-

Close Game Friday

+ The basketball game last Friday
night at the local gymnasium, be-
tween Orotino and Kendrick high
schools, was fought twice to a draw
before final score of 81 to 10 IN
tavor of kendrlck decided the
game. With tied score at the
end of the second half, the game
was continued for five minutes and
again tie resulted the score stand
ing 10 to 10. Five more minutes
were allowed and at the end of this
period Kendrick secured two more
points and won.
1t was one of the most hotly con-
tested games ever played here.
While the playing was not bril-
liant on the part of either team,
what was lacking in team work was
fully made up in hard fast playing.
Fred FIaig easily outplayed any
other man on either team. At Gen.
ter he was the foundation of the
local team and deserves credit for
his headwork and consistent play
ing.
Both teams played an exceptional
ly clean game and the decisions of
the Orofino referee and Hendricks
umpire were prefectIy fair. The
teams were so evenly matched that
many thought it ought to be de-
clared tie, but by extending the
game Kendrlck finally won out.
