HARRINGTON PLAY
WILL Be PRESENTED
UNIVERSITY TALENT WILL
PRESENT "CLARENCE" FOL-
LOWING INAUGURATION.

Clarence" the new Booth Tarking-
ton comedy, will be presented at the
University of Idaho March 80, the
night of President A. H. Upham's in
auguration, by the dramitc section of
the English club.
The play first saw light in New
York two years ago where it played
an extended engagement. It instantly
won national recognition as one of
exceptional merit. Simultaneously, a
leading Chicago company produced it
and the comment on the relative
merits of the two organizations en-
gagged critics attention for several
months.
Larger towns of the northwest and
coast states last summer saw the
comedy presented by the Chicago
company which made hurried west
ern tour. The scrip has not yet been
released to stock companies and only
q few amateur organizations have
been permitted to use it and then
only by paying royalty.
Booth Harrington, the playwright, is
also the creator of "Penrod," Seven
teen," the "Man from Indiana" "The
Circus" and a number of other
stories as well as several big plays.

DANGER OF FOREST
FIRES IN IDAHO
EXPERT DECLARES RISK GREAT
Err HERE THAN IN MANY
OTHER FOREST DISTRICTS.

That the fire hazard in the forests
of northern Idaho is worse than In
any other section of the United
States is the statement made today
by G. c. Delavan, fire assistant on
the Occur d'Alene national forest, In
an address on Fire Profession" be-
fore forestry students of the Univer-
sity of Idaho today.
Although north Idaho's rainfall is
more abundant than in many other
sections, there is practically none
during the months of July and Aug
ust, when forest fires are at their
heighth, said Mr.. Delavan. During
this period, high westerly winds
sweep the timbered sections, having
a powerful drying effect" To illus
trate the typical condition in this Sec
tion, Mr. Delavan declared that "ob-
servations actually show that the
relative humidity in Spokane in the
summer time is less than that of the
Sahara desert.
eve have the minimum of rainfall
and humidity occurring when the
winds, temperature, sunshine and
evaporation are greatest, combina-
tion of factors which puts the forests
said.
California has similar climatic
conditions but it's forests are of a
more open character and the amount
of inflammable material on the ground
is much less. In north Idaho the
frequent spring and fall rains give
rise to very dense type of forest
which creates an abundance of in
material and enables the
fires to burn fiercely and spread
rapidly.
Care and active cooperation on
the part of the public in extinguish-
ing all fires discovered and enforcing
the state and federal forest fire laws,
will aid much in decreasing the huge
toll taken annually by forest fires"
the speaker concluded.
Mr.. Delavan recently made de-
tailed investigation of the clamitic
factors affecting the fire hazard of
the northern region, in conjunction
with J. A. Larsen, U. S. forest ex-
aminer of the Priest river experiment
station.

jack knife, thinking them entirely
dead, but the operation became pain
full, proving that there was still life,
and he desisted awaiting further de-
velopments. He was rescued after IL
days of suffering and privation that
would have driven most men to sui
eide or insanity. He was brought out
on toboggan by seven men from
Pierce, leaving his cabin at Z a. M,
coming over French Mountains and
reaching Pierce about noon and ar
irving at Weippe in the afternoon.
After a nights rest he was taken to
Greer and reached Orofino this morn
ing, where he is comfortably resting
at the Shoemaker hospital, cheerfully
awaiting the action of DR.. Horswill.
His limbs were frozen while he
was on French Mountain, about
p. M on Christmas day and he stated
that the painful sensations of freezing
regularly occur about the same hour
each day.

RACE R|OT|MG IN
SPRINGFIELD OHIO
TROUBLE BETWEEN WHITES
AND BLACKS CALLS OUT
MILITIA-QUIET NOW.

Springfield, Ohio-(By A. P)-
Springfield is quiet this morning,
following night of disorder in which
a policeman and negro were wound
ed in an interchange of shots between
police and negroes. Nearly 80 ar
rests were made. Three companies
of Ohio national guardsmen are on
duty here today.
Sheriff Placed in Charge
At a conference of the state mill
tia and city and county officers today
Sheriff Jones was placed in full
charge of the situation. He issued
orders forbidding all public meetings
after 6 p. m. and the cessation Of all
traffic, including street cars, after
that hour.
Trouble Started Last Night
Race disorders broke out here
shortly before IL o'clock last night
following the shooting of Policeman
Joseph Ryan by negro who was be-
ing searched for firearms. Immedi-
ately after the shooting of Ryan two
machine gun companies, held in
readiness here since early last even
ing in anticipation of trouble follow
ing an attack by a negro Monday on
11-year-old Marge Ferneau, were
called out.
At 80 O'Clock this morning firing
had ceased and the city was reported
quiet. Large crowds of whites which
had been on the streets had been dis
banded by the police.

FARM ACCOUNT BOOKS
READY FOR FARMERS
UNIVERSITY EXTENSION SER
VICE HAS PREPARED SOME
GOOD ACCOUNT BOOKS.

The new farm account books are
now available for distribution by the
university extension division, accord.
ng to G. G. Taylor, farm manage
ment demonstrator. The account
books which are being distributed
this year are somewhat different
from those which were being dis
tributed during 1920. The new ac-
count books have been standardized
and the books which are being put out
in Idaho for use this year are the
same as those being distributed in
most of the other western states and
the New England states; and with
certain notifications they are the
same as are being distributed through
out the middle western states, says
Mr.. Taylor.
"The new Idaho farm account
book" he says, was standardized by
the American Farm Bureau Fedora
ton representatives and the depart
ment of agriculture representatives
in Washington, D. c., who had in con-
ference with them the income tax di-
vision representatives, so that the
new farm account book not only
satisfies the farmers requirements of
simplicity and clearness, but also
satisfies the income tax requirements
for making out income tax state
ments. In fact, the income tax di-
vision has ruled that copy Of the
summary page from this account
book constitute part of the income
tax report taking the place of the
blank which they called 104OF.
'3The greatest use which will be
made of the farm account book is not
for reporting income tax, but for
studying the farm business in order
to put the farming industry on
paying business basis. Farmers who
have attended recent demonstrations
conducted by the university extension
division state that the new farm ac-
count book is by far the simplest ac-
count book which has ever been de-
signed and are unanimous in their
hearty endorsement Of it's use. Copies
of the new account books may be Sc
cured upon application to your coun-
ty agricultural agent or to the uni
versity extension division at Boise.
They are being distributed at 15c
each. which is exactly the cost of

PACKERS EMPLOYEES
REFUSE TO STRIKE
DESPITE CUT IN WAGES Eff
FECTIVE TODAY MEN REMAIN
AT WORK IN OMAHA.

Omaha, Neb.-(By A. P.)-Pack-
, ing employees here, numbering about
5000 men, went to work as usual to-
day despite wage reductions effective
today, according to reports by pack
ing house managers and union Off
cials.
Says Vote Is Being Taken
Chicago-With more than 100000
employees in the packing industry
balloting on a proposed strike, wage
decreases amounting to 1914 and Is
percent, together with readjust-
ment of working hours went into eff
feet today.
Both the packers and union Off
Gals yesterday agreed to meet Secre-
tary of Labor Davis, who offered his
services as mediator, in the hope OF
averting strike. Tonight represent
atives of both sides said there was
little prospect of agreement.
Union leaders pointed out that the
packers, in agreeing to send two
representatives to Washington, had
said 1--WE assume that the justice and
necessity of wage cuts will not be at
issue; nor can there justly be an issue
on the matter Of hours" According
to representatives of the men, this
left nothing to be discussed.
I'VE know the packers are hoping
some of our men will engage in a
runaway strike tomorrow" said Den
mis- Lane, of the meat cutters and
butcher workers, "and in fact we
have evidence that they are aggrava-
ting them. However, the internation-
al officers have warned our member
ship to remain on the job until after
the vote has been taken and until the
international executive board has is
sued strike instructions.
when the strike occurs it will be
national and will have occurred be-
cause of the packers repudiating an
agreement with the government and
because Of their desire for a strike
to accomplish the purpose of destroy
ing the workers organization and un-
loading at profiteering prices the,
enormous quantitiec of meat now in
cold storage, which they bought at
the lowest prices paid for livestock
since 1915"
A meeting of the union leaders to
take action on the proposed strike
will be held here Wednesday. By that
time the result of the strike balloting
will be known, it is expected.
A parade in which thousands of
workers took part was
held in the district known as back
Of the yards" Sunday The marchers
wore banners, some reading: ssMust
labor pay the war debit" Making
the workday longer makes more un-
"Was the war for de-
nocracy a failure?"
Later there was a mass meeting |
addressed by union leaders who urg-
I'd the men not to precipitate pre-
nature strike, but to await the result |
# the strike ballot.
A stencil bomb broke up meeting |
If negro stockyards employees who
yesterday announced they would not
AXE part in a strike.
1t is said that negroes compose 40
percent of the stockyards employees.

METHOD|STS START
REVIVAL MEETINGS
REV. DR. PERRY, POPULAR
PASTOR, ASSISTED BY LAY
MEN, TO CONDUCT THEM.

Special evangelistic meetings be
gan Sunday at the Methodist Episco
pal church, with a fine interest
There were large congregations botl
morning and evening and the whole
atmosphere was one of inspiration.
A large chorus choir filled the choil
loft to capacity. And their work un
der the leadership of Mr.. H. D. Mar.
tin promises to be one of the rea
features of the meeting
In the morning DR.. Perry preached
from the text ''Then the spirit said
unto Philip, go near and join thysel1
to this chariot and Philip ran thi-
ther."
Herewith follows some of the
things that he said:
"A genuine love for men and So
licitude for their salvation is the at
titude of every true Christian man.
God has chosen to convict and
save the world through men.
Jesus Christ looked upon human
ity as miner looks upon rich ledge
of gold. He saw the rich possibilities
of every human life. Those who are
really Christians will have the same
attitude that Christ had. Never q
day goes by but that each one has the
opportunity to join the chariot Of an
unsaved life. Every vocation and every
avocation offers an opportunity. The
hand that holds the saw, the axe, the
spade, the trowel must be the hand
that knows how to point the way to
Jesus Christ. The brain that sweats
over intricate problems of state must
be the brain that knows how to weave
into the warp and woof of human life
the will of God.
1T is noticeable that people were
coming to Christ. He
drew them. 1t is a great blessing
when any church has such spiritual
power that it makes people hungry
and they are drawn to it.
There are several qualifications
for those who would win men to the
Christian life.
clean body, clean thoughts, tempers
controlled, clean principles. The
Holy Spirit will thus come and burn
out the dross if we will let Him do so.
"2. The winner of Men needs to
have faith in men. 1t is the folks
who have faith that do things. This
is Cne victory that OVercOmeth the
world, even your faith Men out of
touch with God become cynics. They
lose their faith in man. Whenever
we see those who believe most in men
we see those who believe most in God.
"3. The winner Of men must pray.
Not say his prayers but pray A
nan prays for the thing he most de-
sires. And if he does this he will
work as intensely as he prays.
"A. The one who wins men to
Christ will bein earnest. The winning
If men is not task for languid souls.

;umed of passion to win men. We

leart man in this people be prodomi-

HALF OF WHITMAN
COUNTY WHEAT HELD
PALOU USE WAREHOUSES; HOLD
FORTY PER CENT OF 1920
CROP-TRADED FARMS
(PalouSe Republicl

With the middle of March almOs
here, there is still in the hands Of
the PalouSe farmers many thousands
of bushels of wheat-the greatest per
centage of the crop ever held at this
time of the year 1t is estimated BY
men in touch with the situation that
at least fifty per cent of the crop in
Whitman county is still owned by the
producers. At Pa1ouse, where selling
has been little more general than al
many other points in the county, the
estimated residue, according to H. R.
Hechtner, manager of the Farmers
Union company, is about 40 per cent
The selling, since the price started
down, has been in small lots, as the in
dividual happened to need the returns
from his crop, or came to the cOnclu-
sion that the price was not likely to
advance.
While many hope that there will be
an advance about April or May in the
market, there is nothing just now to
indicate any marked change either up
or down. While the market, for the
past two or more months, has changed
almost daily, the changes have kept
within a few cents, going down few
cents today, and gaining a few cents
tomorrow, the change either way not
having reached ten cents on the bu-
shell in many weeks. Local quotations
yesterday were $1.20 for Red Russian,
$123 for club and $1.25 for forty-fold.
PalOuse Men Trade Land.
Two Palouse men, c. e. Day and
E. J. Paulson, made an exchange of
farm land this week which seems to
be entirely satisfactory to both. The
land involved in the transaction is a
half section near Kennedy Ford, which
Mr.. Day has owned for some time, and
which he trades to Mr. Paulson for 103
acres, just northwest of this city.
There is considerable livestock and
machinery included in the trade. The
Paulson property is improved with a
bungalow house, electrically lighted
and modern, while the land secured in
the trade by Mr.. Paulson is good farm
and grazing land and will enable him
to operate more extensively Ernest
Day will move to the Palouse farm
and will farm it for his father.

Mild Cases Of Flu.
There are a number Of case of what
is generally believed to be influenza,

very much like the grip of former

aches and pains and run some tenn
