LODGE NEWS

On March Goth that most impress
i've degree, the Iniatory, was confer
red upon two splendid young men
Mr.. Frank H. Cram, the gentlemanly
! Manager of the Payette Cooperative
Co. Store, and Mr.. John Weeks, a
fine young MAJ. from near Payette.
A dozen live wires from Ontario
visited Payette at that time. They
seem to be imbued with the spirit
that spells success for any Lodge.
They are searching the highways and
byways, seeking to learn how they
may better discharge their obliga-
tions, in other words, seeking infor-
nation that will enable them to bet
ter exemplify the beautiful degrees
Of Oddfellowship. They had visited
with the Nyssa Lodge on Tuesday
night; were with Payette on,Wednes-
day night, and expected to visit Wei
ser on Thursday night. Responding
to an invitation TO again visit Pay
ette the statement was made that
they expected to see Payette's First
degree Staff put on the beautiful
work of the degree of Friendship at
the next meeting on April 9Th. Ice
cream and cake was served to make
the evening complete.
A cordial invitation was extended
the Subordinate and Rebekah lodges
by Rev. Clyde Walker of the Metho-
dist Church, TO attend an anniversary
sermon to be delivered by him at
that church at II a. m. April oath.
This invitation has been accepted by
the Lodge. Let every Oddfellow and
Rebekah that takes pride in the Or
der, and can possibly do so, be pres
ent at the hall at 1890 a m. on that
date, prepared to march in body to
the Church, and thus show our ap-
probation to the kindly pastor for
his invitation, and thereby aid in
the dissemination of the kindly fra
ternal spirit of Friendship, Love and
Truth, reinforced and stabalized by
the undying principles of Faith,
Hope and Charity.
Let our good works and kindly
deeds strengthen our Faith in each
other and in humanity, and let it so
guide and direct our daily walk of
life that Hope shall bend over our
path a bow bright with Immortality.
Charity. sweet charity, the gentlest
virtue of them all, how many sins
are committed in they name, yet our
Order is proud of its charity. In
every Grand Jurisdiction all over this
broad land has been reared noble edi-
fices for properly caring for the Or
der's aged and INDECENT, its widows
and it's orphans. Millions in money
are handled with care and diseres-
sion. Wherever sorrows cry is heard
there may be found the gentle influ-
ences of our Order. Orders like this.
like these, are what makes
Men and Nations great and noble.
They are character builders. The
Order strengthens the home life. The
destiny of the nation is foretold by
the character of its homes.
1t is hoped that the Grand Master
will soon announce the date for the
District Convention, in order that the
Committees may complete their final
arrangements.
1t is expected that Emmetsville No
II will bring their Staff and put on
one of the degrees in their usually !
splendid style.

!. R. WOODWARD
FOR MAYOR

At the convention held last Thurs,
day evening, /. X. Woodward was
nominated as candidate OF the Pro
gressiye Citizens Farty to succeed
himself as Mayor. The other candi-
dates nominated were as tonows:
Martin o. Luther for City Clerk; c.
L. Larson for Treasurer; Z. w.
Pease, and Chas. A. Smith as coun-
cianen for the 1st Ward; w. +. Sher-
wood and l.. w. Spaulding as coun-
cilmen for the End Ward; H. o.
Musgrove and w. M. Copeland as
councilmen Tor the 3rd Ward. All OF
these men are now representing the
City of Payette in the offices TO
which they were nominated as candi-
dates, except w. NJ. Copeland. While
Mr.. Copeland is a comparatively new
man in this community, he has shown
himself to be a man OF good judg-
ment ind business foresight. His
past record is clean and above board.
He will make a good councilman.
Councilman Smith who was recently
appointed on the council, has shown
real ability and adaptability in the
solving of the problems which con-
front a City Council. All the other
candidates are men who have served
the city well and faithfully for near
ly four years last past. They have
been confronted with problems such
as very few councils have been call
ed upon to meet. Four years ago,
when the present Mayor and these
councilmen took office, the City had
outstanding warrants amounting to
approximately $4,000. They found
that when the actual running expen-
ses of the city were considered there
were no funds with which to pay
these outstanding warrants. In other
words the city had overdrawn its
account to the extent of the above
amount. 1t neither had money to
pay with nor had any arrangements
been made to raise the funds neces-
sary to take care of this out standing
Indebtedness. These warrants were
drawing 79c interest. Many of them
were long past due. Suits were
threatened and something had to-
be done not only to take care of
these warrants but to keep the city
from again finding itself in similar
undesirable condition. The Council
determined to and did issue refund
ing &C; bonds to take care of these
out standing warrants. The levy
was raised so as to enable the city to
be run on a cash basis and also pro-
vide a sinking fund with which to
pay off the refunding bonds when
they become due. There is approx
mately S2500.OO in this fund now.
The interest rate was cut from 7fc to
Sc; the city was saved the cost, ex-
penses and embarrassment of the
threatened suits; the city has been
placed and run on a cash basis; the
city is accommodating a fund with
which to pay off its Indebtedness. A :
few of the ways in which the Council
have quietly and in businesslike
manner turned some of the losses in
to credit account for you will ap-
pear in the next issue of this paper. |
You need and want progressive
business administration. Watch this
space. Make your own investigation |
and draw your own conclusions. by
their works ye shall know them" is
not u erely a motto; it is a living
fact.

rESTIVITIES for the girl who is to
be married in June are now on
with vengeance. All her friends
will want to shower her and, of course,
they will want to do it in entirely new
and different ways. Here are some
that will be sure to make her say,
"Now, isn't this the best everI"
Kitchen showers are always popular,
especially where you wish to invite
friends who are not near enough or
have enough leisure to- make the things
which her best friends will like to bring
to the shower There are so many lit
tie inexpensive kitchen novelties that
no bride will ever buy for herself. but
always appreciated If this shower is
to be given at luncheon it can be ap-
propriately and rather uniquely served
right in the kitchen provided the room
is large enough. If not the dining ta-
bic can be set with an oldfashioned
red tablecloth, tiny dolls cook stove
for the centerpiece with real smoke
(from incense cubesl coming out of
the chimney, or the little stove could

while indoors pin as many pieces on
a line as it will conveniently hold, and
the line can be placed on the hooks
and a prop put under It in few min
utes, thus preventing a long stay out
in the cold.
To Preserve Peppers.
Select nice firm peppers. Wash
thoroughly; pack in glass fruit jar
whole. and cover with cold water Seal
and the peppers will keep firm, being
much more preferable than canned
vinegar.
An Accompanying Patch.
