Hyu Club to "Tall Timber

After having a delightful luncheon
on the lawn at the D. Hanna resi-
dence, Thursday afternoon, the ladies
of the Hyu Club decided to go to
"Idler's Rest" the summer home Of
Mr.. and Mrs C. H. Patton, in the
timber six miles northeast of town,
and have dinner there. 1t was 4
o'clock when they left Moscow in sew
eral cars, but it is only 20-minutes
drive to the beautiful shady resort at
elders Rest" and the guests felt we'll
repaid for the trip. After having
dinner there they spent several hours
in the timber and returned to Mos
cow late at night. The bright, warm
sunshine of the afternoon, following
the rain of the morning, had dried
the trees and weather conditions w u
ideal. All who attended both N#
luncheon and the dinner report h
had delightful time.

TALKED TO TEACHERS
PIONEER SCHOOL TEACHER OF

THE SUMMER SCHOOL.

Miss L. L. West E. 1916 Eighth
Ave-, Spokane, who confessed herself
to be "the oldest old maid in the state
of Washington, addressed the sum-
mer school Students of the University
of Idaho at assembly this morning.
She offered evidence to substantiate
her claim to the age championship by
saying she was 70 years old
81 made my first visit to Moscow
43 years ago." said Miss West. cat
that time we thought the Palouse hills
didn't amount to anything, but now
believe that with all the improve
ment that has been made we have
only begun to see what can be accom-
plished by the hand of man."
Next to the conscientious mother,
according to Miss West, the conscien-
tious teacher occupies the most i'm
portant position in the world. Neces-
sary qualifications for teachers she
listed as aptness to teach, personality,
ability to read character, disciplinary
ability and scholarship.
Miss West visited Moscow to attend
the fertieth anniversary of the found
ing of the Baptist Women's Mission
ary society here. She presided at the
time of the organization 40 years
ago. The reunion meetiny was held
at the j. G. Bessee residence in the

MOSCOW MATRON BALKED
ON PAYING GUARANTEE

An amusing incident occurred in
Moscow few days ago, in connection
with the settling up Of the guarantee
for the Chautauqua. A minister who
had taken deep interest in the
Chautauqua called on well known
Moscow matron, and asked her to pay
81 as her share to make up the de-
ficiency to the Chautauqua organiza-
tion, which "takes no chances" but
makes people guarantee them a good
profit before visiting a town. The
woman, prominent member of the
Methodist church, refused to "dig up"
81 to help the wandering Snowman.
The minister tried to awaken the
Methodist lady's sympathy by say
ing "This man, (the Chautauqua pro-
moter) is a poor man with a wife and
seven children and he needs the
money" This failed to move the heart
of the good Methodist sister who nev-
er refuses to do her part to help her
church, her neighbors or any one in
need, and she replied: "I did not ask
him to come to Moscow. / did not in
vite him here. / only attended Chau-
tauqua once and left then before the
program was over and I will not pay
81 or any sum to help these people,"
The minister tried another scheme,
which also failed: eff you don't pay
it I'll have to-" he said. do you
want me to pay this money out my
own pocket?" The woman refused to
be moved by this appeal, and did not
come across" with the Sd. The min
lister dipped deep into his pocket and
dug up 81 and paid it to the "poor
man with seven children and left the
residence of the woman saying: "II
had to pay for that woman" The
woman, still unmoved, fired this part
ing shot at the retiring minister. II
did not ask you to pay it and / don't |
thank you for having paid it." The /
story leaked out" and is creating
much amusement among those who
did not fall for the Chautauqua guar

"Oil on Untroubled Waters

N. G. Gilbertson, who has a fine
farm four miles east of Moscow, was
in town Friday and made inquiries
about having the water on his farm
analyzed to ascertain if there is soil
in it. Mr.. Gilbertson says when he
takes water from his well, which is 20
feet deep, and let's the water stand a
while an oily substance rises to the
surface of the water. He has several
springs on his place and the water
from these, when allowed to stand
still, is covered with an oily substance
Mr.. Gilbertson said he had noticed
this for years, but thought nothing of
it until the talk about oil in this coun-
try aroused his interest and made him
think possibly this is the outcrop-
pings or leak from a vein of OIL He
plans to bring some Of the water to
Moscow and have it analysed at the
University of Idaho to ascertain what
is in the substance that rises to the
surface.

CHILD JURY FINDS
OWLS SHOULD LIVE
HARDING PUTS CUES
TION UP TO YOUNGSTERS
WHO RENDER VERDICT.

WASHINGTON-(By A. P.)-Th,
owls can live. The John Burrough
Club jury appointed by Presiden
Harding when visiting the White
House some time ago to consider the
question says so and the jury so re
ported today in a memorandum filet
by the youngsters with George B
Christian, Jr., the presidents secre
tary. The finding of the jury is basec
upon the clubs investigation and up
on hundreds of briefs filed with the
American Forestry Association fo1
the club from every section of the
country.
These briefs took up every phase of
owl values as pest destroyers to their
man beings. Some of the writers call
ed upon President Harding to get rid
of the owls at once if there are any in
the White House grounds and predict
ed all kinds of bad luck, for his adj
ministration. The John| Burroughs
Club however considered only the
economic value of the owls, for the
question put to them by Judge"
Harding was in regard to birds that
preyed on other birds being allowed
to live.
The finding of the jury filed at the
White House today follows:
I'm spite of the fact that these
birds destroy others of their own
ilk, they have to their credit and de-
fense of their lives the fact that they
are of much economic value and have
certain other qualities in their favor.
eve shall take for instance, the
crow, whose value in lessening the
number of harmful insects was so
great that for a long time scientists
working for the government were un-
able to say whether his bad acts
counterbalanced his good deeds.
"Next we take the Great Horned
but even he, kills rats, mice and other
rodents.
'Finally we come to the Coopers
and Sharp-Skinned Hawks, who, es-
pecially the Coopers Hawk, have
brought wrath and hate upon the
heads of even the less destructive
birds of prey of the country.
"But then, can we convict whole
class Of Gods creatures because few
have been known to slaughter their
own kind? Can that inexorable law
Of nature, "The survival of the fit
test," which has been since the world
began be broken by us who owe so
much to it, even unto our very exist
ence? Do we put sentence of death
On all bears because few have been
known to eat domestic animals? We
kill them if we know they are guilty,
that is all. If we destroy the feather
I'd murderers we must also pass SEN
,ence on the parasitic vine, which en-
circles and saps the life from the
sturdy forest tree!
NAY, it is not for US to do these |
;hings, if it were Gods will they
should perish, it would be NECESSARY
or US to pit our puny selves against
he countless flocks DER our nation
lerefore we, the John Burroughs
Club of Forest School, wish to state
o His Honor, the President of the |
United States, sitting as a Judge In
his case, that these birds should not
lie, but should be allowed to remain
live in their native haunts, with no
egislatives sentence hanging, a bread
menace, over their heads Signed:

Mr.. Munson is a pioneer of 35 years

ber of responsible positions. He
served two terms in the state legis-
lature, was state land appraiser un-
