Widoseck made fine record as SOL

minute through Grass errors. Maize
Ball had been impressed originally
with the war record, of which she had
glowing accounts fro mher brother. a
comrade in arms of the unfortunate
Rob, who visited the Balls when the
war was done with and met Maize, And
now she was coming on from Ohio to
married to him. Che didn't arrive on
time, and the perils Of the trenches
faded into insignificance in Bobs mind
compared to the perils Of travel from
Ohio to New York. He got so alarmed
that he sent out description of her.
That was the fatal moment. For he de-
scribed her as having brown eyes and
weighing 14S pounds, Maize saw the
description at the home of her uncle
where she had stopped off to visit. And
she never finished the journey; she
wrote O letter instead. 1t was bad
enough to have her blue eyes called
brown by her own fiance; but l4S

MUCH INTEREST SHOWN IN
HOME PRODUCTS WEI

Home Products week caused con
Siderable stir in Payette, and espe
cially on Saturday when the street.
was crowded equal to a Fourth-of
July Celebration. The exhibits al
the Jacobsen building drew a crowd
during the entire. afternoon. The
exhibits were very creditable and
made good showing for the many
manufacturing plants of various
kinds. The furniture made by the
manual training class of the Payette
High School was strictly high class
work and received many compli
ments. All of the manufactured
goods was display of quality and
should create an incentive to pat.
ronize home institutions.
The parade was very good, and the
home products dinner in the evening
at the 'Y'' by the ladies of the Portia
Club would convince any one that
we could nicely live 365 days in the
year on the products grown at home.

The Washoe boys played Wood
Spur return game Sunday, Apri
18th, and treated them to the small
end of 10 to score, thereby wip
ing out the sting of the defeat Wood
Spur inflicted on them in the first
game. The game was snappy thru
out with lively rivalry on both sides,
but up to the 9Th inning Washoe was
able to hold Wood Spur down to
three runs when Secrest and Bosch
batteries for Washoe limbered up
their generosity and permitted Wood
Spur to gain five runs and although
this was their last score they livened
up enough to bold Washoe TO but 8
more runs for the rest of the game.
Dan Shamberger, Washoe's LETT

elbow about the seventh inning bat

HIS TIME ALL TOO SHORT
Dying Profiteer Could Not Make Com
plete Confession of lniquity In
One Brief Day.

Armin w. Riley, head of the flying
squadron" that hunts down prohteers
for the department of justice, told a
profteer story at Il Washington re-
ception.
"a sick profiteer," he said, was
told by his physician that he had only
a short time to live. Accordingly, he
expressed a desire to confess his SINS
and a divine was sent for.
1.-THE divine entered the dying prof
iteers chamber and the door was
closed. An hour, two hours, three
hours passed. Nothing was to be heard
by the attendant nurses and physi-
clans outside in the corridor save the
steady, monOtOnOus flow of the prof
itcer's confession, punCtured at brief
intervals by EXPLANATIONS Of horror
and Indignation on the part of the
divine.
Lunch was sent into the sickroom,
and the confession went on. The af-
ternoon waned. The sun set. Night
fell. The divine's dinner was carried
to him. And still the profiteer con-
tinued to confess.
"Haggard and unstrung, the divine
at last tOttered forth at daybreak.
"'Our unfortunate friend he said,
is no more. He worked very, very
hard; but at the time he passed
away he had only carried his cOnfes-
sion through the first year of the
war"
