The tragic death of Mrs. Mary f.
C. Moore, age 81, and daughter, Miss
Margaret, age %, of Bissell, which
occurred in the sudden conflagration
of their home Tuesday, May 26th, is
noted as the passing of pioneers as
well as the manner in which the ac-
cident occurred. The Moores have re-
sided in Stevens county thirty years.
The father, in the cellar culling po-
tatoes, was attracted by roar which
he mistook for the passing OF an
automobile. Stepping to the door he
saw his home wrapped in fiamesv
while his wife who had been out
side, was rushing through the only
possible entrance to the rescue OF
their invalid daughter Margaret. No
sooner was she within when the
structure collapsed.
Added to the loss of life and home
were the earnings of the family.

COLv|LLE LOSES
Two GAMES
VALLEY WINS THE SUNDAY
GAME-CHEWELAH WINS
ON MONDAY
Local Team Goes to Springdale To-
morrOw-Valley Will Play at
Chewelah

The local team in the Stevens
County league celebrated Sunday and
Memorial day by dropping two games.
The first game was played in Val
ley Sunday and was lost in the first
two innings. Errors in plenty and
a few hits gave the Valley tossers
runs, although our prides played
air-tight ball the rest of the game
and by timely hitting showed over Z
runs, they could not overcome the
early advantage.
The Monday game in Chewelah
saw the locals invade the yard of
the Chewelah tossers and very in
teresting game was the result. Can
non, a recruit, started on the mound
for Chewelah, and although he show
ed wonderful speed, the locals easily
solved his delivery, and in the fourth
he went to the Showers" leaving
Colvile with three perfectly good
runs and "Jimmie" Spurgeon took
up the burden From then on Col
vile made no score. One lone bingle
in the remaining innings of the game
was Colville's share, while Chewelah
drove over seven runs and won the
game.
The principal complaint against the
Chewelah management is the very
inefficient umpiring permitted. While
the umpires seemed to be impartial
vet their decisions were so fearful
and wonderful as to discourage at
tennis at good ball playing. Our
suggestion is that a change be made
in this respect as the class OF ball
being shown in the league demands
more experienced refereeing.
These two games We're both hard
luck games to lose, but the boys are
on their toes and playing ball, ana
are hitting the ball and may be ex-
pected to give good account OF
themselves in future games.
Tomorrow, the schedule calls Tor
the presence of the local club at
Snrinpdale, while Valley plays at
Chewelah.

COUNTY NURSE MAKES
REPORT OF HER WORK

Miss w. G. Glolner, county tu-
berculosis nurse, who commenced her
work in Stevens county March Is,
makes the following report of her ac-
tivities during the two and one-half
months of her work:
Total number tubercular cases thus
far handled 38. suspects 8, moved
away 2, visits to patients 80, other
calls 100, total number visits 200,
health talks in schools and public
meetings as, schools visited AZ,
school children examined $50. Re
suits of school examinations-Chil-
dren found perfect 40, enlarged
lymph glands 33, goiter 81, nervous
diseases 3, skin diseases 4, defective
vision 80, eye disease /, ear disease
4, defective hearing IS, defective
teeth 1876, defective nasal breathing
27, enlarged tonsils 1856, poor men
tality 9, tubercular suspects 10.
In explanation of the above state
ment it would be well to say that
many of the children would have
passed a perfect examination but
for decayed teeth and decrepit tonsils.
1t is urged that the parents have
these defects remedied during the
summer vacation.
The following statement is issued
by DR.. Thomas D. Wood of the com
mittee on health problems of the ma
tional council of education:
Enlarged or diseased tonsils pro-
duce many of the unfavorable re
suits attributed to adenoids. The
two conditions are often associated
and it is difficult to distinguish be-
tween their effects. Enlarged and
diseased tonsils increase susceptible
ity to tonsillitis, quinsy, diphtheria,
rheumatism, tuberculosis, pneumonia
and other forms of infection.
The presence of enlarged tonsils
and adenoids in school children
should be known and when any dis
turbances of health can be attrib
uted to them by a competent physi
clan, the structures should be re
moved. Their absence in such case
is an unqualified advantage.
Defective Teeth-Direct Effects.
Pain of excruciating type result
ing in great loss of time and rest.
Foul breath with unsightly and
infiamed mouth.
Improper mastication of food.
Decay in sound teeth.
Decay of temporary teeth result
ing in unsound permanent teeth.
Infection of gland
Infection of the jaw bone.
Earache with otitis-media (middle
ear disease) and deafness.
Headache.
Disturbance in function of the eye.
Frequent digestive disturbance.
Indirect effects
Condition Of poor nutrition and less
resistance to disease.
Formation of a perfect bed for
growth of germs. This condition
with lowered resistance leads to in
creased frequency of infection with
pneumonia, diphtheria, etc.
General infections dangerous to
life in some cases.
Results which accompany defective
hearing.
Lowering of vitality and temporary
or permanent i'll health.

Especially noticeable, too, in con-
trast with the spirituality of the pa

of the ten little girls composing the
flag drill, which featured prominently
in the Memorial day exercises. The
movement of their youthful hands and
feet we're beautifully unified. Facial
expressions of pure joy, fuffiness of
babyish curls and white frocks, they

composing the drill were Catherine

day: america is bounded on the
north by the aurora borealis, the

"The development of the spirit of
patriotism from the national strains
of English, the German, the French,
the Scandinavian--in fact, the only
nation not represented in the cru
cible. America, is the Spanish-has
resulted in the right makes might
spirit of that actuated the Ameri
can soldier in every battle that has
been fought.
America is working out the prin-
ciples of democracy. 1t is the foun-
dation of the school system, the pur-
pose of the church, the principle on
which the 4th of July is founded,
L and the Memorial day services-all
the rich heritage left by tire people.
The amazing vitality that took the
youths of the country victorious
through the civil war characterizes
the veterans of today. And the civil
war was a young mans war accord
ing to the National Tribune relative
