Dear Sir:
November s, 1921

Dear Sir:
Secretary of State Hughes has Just
wired Governor Davis personal re-
quest from President Harding. The
President is anxius to have all public
and church bells throughout the
United States tolled from 11:45 A.
NJ. to 12 o'clock noon, Washington
time, Armistice Day Mountain time
would be from 9:45 A. NJ. to 10 A.
NJ; This is to be followed by two
minutes of silent prayer in which the
President asks "All devout and
patriotic citizens of the United States
indulge in a period of silent thanks
to God for these valuable, valorous
lives and of supplication for his
divine mercies and for his blessings
upon our beloved country.
The late hour of this specific re-
quest to Governor Davis makes ii
necessary for him to delegate one
person in your county to either see
those responsible for the tolling of
the bells or telephoning them. and
he asks me to request particularly OF
you to assume this obligation so the
matter may be accomplished univer-
sally in Idaho. The Governor is
hopeful that this will reach you in
time to be published in your news
paper, as well as for you to person
ally request the action.
Sincerely yours,
FRANK W. CAPRON,
Secretary to the Governor.

CLIEE PLAYS DOG.

Clifford Hart bagged his limit
last Sunday and also enjoyed little
unusual experience when acting the
part of a retriever in bringing in one
of the birds that happened to fall
in the Payette river, he was more
intent on bagging the bord than
watching his steps, and fell into a
deep hole over his head and had to
swim several rods before landing,
but came out with the bird alright.
Cliff says the real enjoyment OF
playing dog, is putting on your
wet clothes after wringing them out
in a patch of cucklebUrrs.

The program for good roads in
District No. 2 of Payette county, as
outlined and now under construction
may finely terminate in a system OF
better highways. but it now looks
like the work being done is badly
scattered over so many miles OF
territory breaking up the original
hard surface and covering up the
gravel, that when the usual wet
weather sets in we are bound to
have considerable bad roads during
the comming winter. We are not
putting ourselves up as expert road
builders. but it seems like it would
have been a wise plan to have COM
pleted the work with a gravel sur
face as it was being built, confining
it to a smaller territory.
