1t is an astounding fact that the
fire losses in the United States and
Canada thus far reported for the pre-
sent year are more than $4,000, coo
over and above losses for tie same
period last year. Can it be possible
that we are growing even more care
less concerning III frightful fire
waste?
In these days Of high cost when
every effort should be made toward
rigid economy. when every resource
! should be most carefully hu>banded,
when production is So in need Of en-
enlargement, surely u people can
not afford 10 overlook tie constant
terrible loss Of life and destruction OF
property due to fire. over 1900 Eu.
man beings we're burned to death auC
more than 1000 were injured 10y tire
during the year 1919.
1t is estimated that - per cent o.
these fires are due to preventablC
causes. All we need IS a proper eau

AS TIE EDITOR SEES II.

a good citizen wants our opinion,
editorially expressed, as to the most
practical method Of stimulating a
greater interest in local affairs on the
part Of the public.
Years ago. when the present adult
generation were children, the attrac-
tioa that brought out regularly the
greatest number Of people was the
weekly meeting Of the old fashioned
debating society.
The members Of the society would
select a subject To be discussed, both
anirmatiYe.Y and negtiyeE
Then from their membership, by
vote. they would select the speakers
WHO would argue pros and cons OF the
subject. two taking the affirmative
side and two the negative. OF course
a time limit was placed upon each
speech.
A jury " five or seven people would
be selected TO render a decision at the
close ~ lAr ~peaklnP. ana the contest
ants would go to it, their partisans
roofing With lavish applause at every
telling int made.
More vital issues would be brought
ont in these public deba ties in one
night than would crop out in a year
of the ordinary routine Of life.
And incidentally we might remark
that some IL the most brilliant ora

If a family works in amity in its
aims and its purposes in life it sue
ceedj. If it disagrees, and is divided,
it degenerates into a number of sep.
crate units, without cohesion, and
eventually falls.
This town is one big family, with
members, or units.
A loyal spirit Of fraternity will weld
us together and enable us to wOrg in
diligently, energetically and cohesi-
gely for our common good, with ulti-
nate success as our assured reward.
The absence Of such a spirit will re-
duce us to the status of a collection of
units, without organization, without
definite purpose. and each exhaust
ing his energy and his in a
m re Of suspicion and cross purposes,
The issue cannot be evaded-it Is
one or the other.
Which do you prefer for this town?

Would YOU feel aggrleEed II we were
to tell you that you are chasing death
every day in the year?
But you are-we all are-for this is
a death chasing age in which we live.
We are rushing through life at too
rapid peed in our efforts to keep
pace with a g%alloping world.
The beacon light which we follow
is glaring, binding and blighting. 1t
is the light OF gold and more gold.
1t f~ascinates, and charms, and de-
moraliIes its victims until manly re-
s%istance to its SINISTER influences van
ishes in Il craving for the inordinate
pleasures which wealth alone can give
We stunt our bodies and ~stultify
our minds, and peril our souls in our
insatiate greed for more.
The pace we travel is one of mad.
ness, and the beacon VIZ follow is
lighted 10y the hand Of premature
death.
Life and tNe power to think and
act were given TO us for a purpose,
but the purpose was not n destruc'
tive to mind and body, and soul.
The vitality within our human
frame is limited, and when we strain
it beyond the point of wisdom we pass
the pinnacle Of eXistance and enter
upon the decline of life.
by defying the laws Of nature we
bring death UNNECESSARILY nearer by
acts wholly our own.
The beacon light is golden, but it
draws us steadily onward and down

Plav Well STAGED

On Friday evening the class in pub

school, under the able direction of
Mrs. G. W. Maxfield, presented the
pleasing comedy "The School Mis-
tress." The plot deals with the mani
pulstion of girls school of which
Miss Caroline Dyott, played by Miss
Ina Wilson, was owner, and in the
development Of the play, many anus
ing situations were we'll staged by the
amateurs. The froliesome stunts pull
ed off by the young lady students dur
ing the holidays, while the ex-spins-
ter, who had been secretly married,
was absent were a clever depletion of
the antics characteristic of girls
schools. The High School Orchestra
assisted, making the evening another
pleasant memory in this years ac-

Turn to the Right

Solid cement pedestals (P. P.) have
been set up by the city in the cente,
of Main street at the intersection of
Boise, Commercial, Washington and
Hayes avenues and also at the First
and Washington street intersection,
as a guide for motorists. The pedes-
tails will be painted white and each
of the four sides will contain the
sign Keep to the Right" A small
gas pipe has been placed through each
post and it is the plan of the city to
place red electric light thereon.
Many near-serious collisions have oc-
CURED recently through the careless
ness of auto drivers in cutting cor
ners, and stricter enforcement of the
traffic regulations will be required in
the future. The posts were moulded

Are Good Entertainers

Probably owing to the numerous en-
tertainments just preceding and SO
soon to follow, the appearance of the
Whitman College Glee Club last even
ing was greeted by a too-sman, but
very appreciative audience. The en-
tertainment given by the club was of
a thoroly high class, and was, in fact,
one Of the best Of its kind which En-
NETT has received. The work of Wal
ter Mueller, aecompanist, was q de-
light, both in concert and solo. The
Jazz orchestra added just enough of
the present day pep to suit the occa-
sion of snappy entertainment, while
the Joyful Jabbering Of Mr.. Harper
Joy furnished pleasing variety. We
venture to say the Whitman Glee Club
Will be warmly welcomed should they
return next year. The boys gener-
ously entertained the High school
students with several numbers during
the afternoon, and expressed great
pleasure in the kindly reception given
them.

dam PROJECT GIVEN
APPROVAL
Engineers Report Approves
Plans in Every Detail-In-
vestigations to Continue

The report of Engineer Wylie on the
Black Canyon dam project, eagerly
awaited by the land owners of the
Emmett Irrigation District, was read
at meeting held in Ideal Theater
Saturday, and was of such an optimis-
tic character as to evoke the most en-
thusiastic endorsement of the large
audience, practically all of whom are
land owners of the district.
The report was of most detailed
character, not only as to feasibility
and construction, but also as to esti-
mates of cost In respect to cost the
report coTroborated the estimates of
the originators of the plan to change
the location of the Canyon canal dam.
Engineer Wylie also gave a compre-
hensive survey of the condition of the
irrigation system above Black CANYON.
the improvements necessary to deliver
a sufficient supply of water in a rea-
sonable safe manner, and an estimate
OF the cost to complete the work. This
was placed at figure more than
100000 more than the estimated
cost of the proposed new dam.
At the conclusion of the report. it
was adopted without a dissenting
vote. A committee of Is was author
zed and elected to continue the in
