HoNoRs FOR BRAVE SCOUTS.

During the year 1920 the national
court of honor of the Boy Scouts Of
America issued medals as follows to
scouts for conspicuous service in life
saving and first aid:
Two gold medals, Is silver medals,
II bronze medals. The gold medal
cases were particularly striking, in
volving the heroic rescue Of two chill
dren from burning building by
young assistant scoutmaster, George
Noble of Charlton, Ia, and another
remarkably self-forgetful and fine at
tempt on the part of scout, Joseph
Mardis of Troop No. l, East Liver
pool, to save his scOutmaster from a
fallen live wire at the imminent risk
of his own life. Nine of the silver
medal cases were water accidents, and
in each case the rescuer showed ex-
ceptional courage and clearheaded-
ness. The other silver medal cases
were live wire rescue, the rescue of
children from burning building and
from automobile and truck accidents.
The third scout law requires that a
scout shall be prepared at any time
to save life and help injured persons,
and the records of the court of honor
abundantly prove that the boys are
living up to this obligation in full
measure. In addition to these 81
medals already mentioned, 81 letters
Of commentator were sent by the
court of honor to boys who per-
formed deeds Of exceptional excel
lence in life saving and first aid, with
out risk to their own lives.

IDAHO OFFICIALS
ASKED TO CANADA

Canadian government officials
have strongly urged" Governor D.
w. Davis and w. G. Swendsen, state
commissioner of reclamation, to be
present at a conference to be held
at Creston, B. c., on June Is, for
the purpose of discussing the Koo-
tenai drainage project, affecting
some 10000 acres in Idaho and a
large tract of land in Canada.
Both Governor Davis and Mr..
Swendsen are out of town, but the
state commissioner Friday signified
by telephone his intention of attend
ing. He also hoped to arrange for
the presence Of the governor, who is
in Washington, supporting the recla-
nation bill which is now pending be-
fore congress, he said.
The project is favorable to both
the governor and the state reclama-
ton officer, and is also included in
the general program of the Western
States Reclamation association. c.
w. King Of Boomers Ferry, senator
from Boundary county during the
1921 session of the legislature, is
also actively interested in the
project.
Embraces $4,000 Acres
On the Idaho side of the project
embraces about $4,000 acres of land,
10000 of which could be reclaimed
by drainage. The land, which is
generally fiat, is completely flooded
about once every three years, and
partially during high waters on the
Kootenai river. The value of the
land now is about $40 to $40 per
acre, but if satisfactorily drained.
will increase to an average value Of
about 5000 per acre.
Works for the project will consist
of levees and drainage canals along
the Kootenai river, to keep the flood
waters from inundating the land.
On the Canadian side it will be neces-
sary to permanently lower the level
of Kootenai lake.-Boise Statesman.

DEADWOOD, S. D., May pa
novel business organization was
formed here last night to provide
Sunday baseball games to fans of
the Black Hills in compliance with
the Sunday blue laws. In a recent
decision, the supreme court said that
where an admission fee is charged,
Sunday baseball in South Dakota
was illegal. At the meeting last
night it was decided to form stock
company, the stockholders to be ad-
mitted free to all baseball games
played here. A legal opinion was
that this plan was in accord with the
"blue laws" and at the same time,
the organization can be financed

EUQENIC LAW

CHEYENNE, Wyo.-The law re-
curing every man who takes out a
marriage license in Wyoming to first
have a Doctors certificate as to his
physical condition became effective
in this state May. 20. The law was
passed by the last legislature.
The law provides, specifically, that
any county, clerk, before issuing a
marriage license, must demand a
certificate from the male applicant
signed by a duly licensed physician
and dated not more than ten days
prior to the date of application for
marriage license, certifying that said
male applicant is free from venereal
disease in communicable form.
1t is also provided that any person
leaving the state of Wyoming to be
married in another state with the
intention of evading the Wyoming
law shall be subject to fine of 800
and costs.
At the time the bill was originally
passed by the legislature there was
considerable heated debate over the
advisability of demanding physi-
clans certificates from both the male
and female, but it was finally de-
cided to require the male only to fur
nish such certificate.

QUIT TELLING FUNNY STORIES
Why Congressman Kelly Sacrificed
Humor on the Altar OF Serious
Craftsmanship.

Patrick Kelly, II representative in
congress from Michigan, says that lie
used to tell many stories in going
about In his political campaigns. The
audiences always liked them and went
away pleased. Telling them looked
Ike good politics.
Years later Kelly would meet n
man and he would say:
II have met you before. remem-
Der very well certain story you
told"
Then he would repeat the anecdote.
Kelly would ask him what else he re-
membered that had been said, and he
would be unable to remember thing
The congressman began to wonder If the
telling of stories prevented more seri-
Gus matters from finding Judgement
In the hearers mind.
He became fearful. He WAS not
sure, but he decided to lay off the
funny story. So was the possibility
of a multitude of good laughs sacri-
feed at the altar of serious states

VALUE OF PRACTICAL

STUDENTS IN EMERGENCY

Ten forestry students with w. J.
Morrill,. State Forester of the Colorado
Agricultural College, were recently
in Middle Park observing forestry
practice Of the United States Forestry
Service and their logging and milling
methods. In an emergency in which
all the hands at the Woods sawmill
near Fraser quit, the students stepped
in and successfully operated the mill
for q day and half until new crew
could be obtained.
They were living in cabins nearby
when so many of the operators left
that Mr.. Wood had the option Of
either closing down the mill until a
new crew could be recruited or shut
tirg down the logging operations to
provide men to run the mill.
The forestry students managed the
20, ,0O0-foot capacity mill except for
the sawyer, fler and engineer, and
turned out fair amount Of good lum-
ber during the next day and a half
when a new crew was secured.
