School Notes

A small portable motion picture
machine has been purchased for the
school. It is to be paid for by ad-
missions to entertainments to be
given in the auditorium and not by
district funds. The school manage
ment was encouraged to take this
step in the interest Of education by
some of the leading citizens of
Kendrick. 1t is sign of progress.
Practically eighty per cent of what
we know we learn through the sense
of sight. 1t is thus evident that
good motion pictures can be made
to serve a most valuable purpose In
education.
The films that will be used most
ly are those furE ished by the U. S.
Government. which now has a de.
partment of "Visual Education. :"
These films cover a large range OF
subjects. The public is invited to
attend the entertainments and thus
help the pupils and teachers to pay
for the machine, besides getting
valuable information.
The machine was not bought
primarily for commercial purposes
and is not intended in anv way to
conflict with the regular motion
picture theatre. 1t was bought for
school and community educational
purposes. 1t was given try out
Wednesday evening and proved very
successful, IN spite of the poor
screen used.
1t is hoped by different entertain
ments not only to pay for the
motion picture protector but to pur
chase school phonograph, which
can be wheeled to any room in the
building.
Owing to the crowded condition
in the primary room it was fount
necessary to secure assistance. II
order to have an accredited higl
school it is necessary to have &C
credited elementary work as ;
foundation. The crowded condition
in the primary room has been re
lieved by fitting up a room in tn
basement and putting it in charg
of Mrs. Keller. who has been secur
ed for the remainder of the year a
a small salary.
The large number of children il
the lower grades is due to the fac
that many Of the younger children
were not returned to school las
year after the influenza epidemic
This condition will probably no
exist next year.

Has Fine Cattle

William Cox of American Ridge
purchased fine, 14-months-old
Ayershlre bull, from prominent
breeder at Wenatchee, Wash. Mr..
Cox has been breeding up herd of
thoroughbred Ayershire cattle for
nearly ten years and now has some
Of the finest stock of this breed in
the state. His herd is not large
but is made up of very fine stock.
Mr.. Cox says that with proper
management small herd of dairy
cattle can be made to pay very
nice profit, on a ranch which is used
principally for raising grain. Keep
ing the small dairy herd compels
the owner to keep at least small
portion Of his place seeded to some
forage crop. This builds up part
of the land each year and the
manure can he used on the land
that is being cropped to grain. He
says that just as much grain can be
raised on less land that is thus bet
ter cared for than by continually
cropping the entire place to grain
year after year.
Mr.. Cox believes that it is now
only a question of short time
until the raising of more livestock
will be followed extensively in the
Potlatch. He says the farmers are
going to be forced to do this, as a
matter of self-preservation, whether
they wish to or not. He sold nearly
eleven hundred dollars worth of
buttertat last year from his small
herd and supplied two families with
butter and cream besides. He is
making dairying pay and has made
it pay for a good many years.
Mr.. Cox is one of the best posted
farmers, along all lines, in the Pot
latch country. He studies farming
from practical standpoint and his
success is good indication that his
knowledge has been put to good
use. While his dairying IS in the
nature OF side issue to his farm
ing operations, he has successfully
demonstrated that this industry car
be profitably carried on as side.

talents was insistent. But Evans
was restless. dissatisfied. He travel

SIX Of them, in each as close stud
ent of social, industrial and polite
al life as he has been in Eng land.
Into "What America Means to Me"

the sanest criticism and the most
fervent tribute to America that has
been heard In many years.

Bought Bakers Store

N. B. Long & Sons closed deal
this week whereby they take over
the entire stock of general mer-
chandlse and fixtures of the Baker
Department Store. The store COM
prises large stock of dry goods,
clothing, shoes and groceries and
when combined with the present
stock of groceries and meats of the
new firm, will make a very large
general merchandise stock. The
store will be conducted under the
name of N. B. Long & Sons. Mar
vim Long, who is now working in a
large general store at Athena,
Oregon, will become a member of
the firm. He and Tom will have
charge of the dry goods, clothing
and shoe department of the store
and Today and his father will have
charge of the groceries and meats.
The stock of groceries in the new
ly purchased store will be combined
with that of the old N. B. Long e.
Sons stock and the meat and gro
ceries handled on one side Of the
store and the dry goods etc., on the
other side.
N. B. Long & Sons also purchas-
ed the building containing their
new stock, from E. P. Atchison.
This building, together with their
former headquarters, will make a
store room with floor space of 60
by 100 feet. An arch will be cut
between the two buildings, throw
ing the two rooms into one, but
divided by partition. They ex-
pect to put in very comfortable
ladies' rest room and make num-
ber of substantial improvements in
the store room.
Invoicing of the newly purchased
stock will beign Monday and as
soon as it is completed, N. B. Long
& Sons will take over the business.
Marvin Long is expected here the
first of the week.
The taking over of the Baker
Store will eliminate one grocery
! stock in Kendrick, leaving three
large grocery stocks, which is
enough for town the size of Kend-
rick.
N. B. Long & Sons have lived
here good many years, have a
wide acquaintance throughout the
Potlatch country and have always
been interested in the progress of
this section. They are live wires
and it is foregone conclusion that
they will prosper in their larger
undertaking.
Mr.. Baker said his selling out so
suddenly was as much of surprise
to him as it was to everyone else.
He does not like the general mer-
chandise business and has had it in
r mind for some time to dispose Of
his stock. He has followed the
= grain business greater part of his
life and likes it better than the
mercantile business.

very near future if the plans OF

closed a deal with Homer Grove for
the purchase of the confectionery
store which Mr.. Grove has conduct
for the past several months. Mr..
Heacox is familiar with the line of
business and he and Mrs. Heacox
have been very busy the past few
days Strengthening up and arrang-
ing things to suit their fancy.

doubtless build up splendid trade

Troy News: Messrs. Carl T. An
derson and T. H. Christie express
ed themselves as favoring the idea
of inviting Mr.. Harland, specialist
in education, to come to Troy and
spend several days surveying our
schools. Mr.. Harland is a teacher
in the Lewiston Normal, but is now
released from class work to spend
all his time in schools asking for
his services. This man is able to
examine our grades including high
school and determine how we'll our
grades are graded and where the
weak places are. His results and
suggestions will be valuable to
both the superintendent and teach
ers as they will be better able to
bring every class up to standard
grade Of work every branch of
study. Mr.. Harland will cost the
district nothing but living expenses
while here.

The French people, realizing the
great Importance Of the entry of

Sixty of these pamphlets were
