of which we are hll justly proud.
We would like to see the opening
of the building made general Cen
trail Idaho affair for 1t certainly plac-
ces this section at the top in the ed
ucational centers Of the State.
We believe that the teachers will
exercise sufficient discipline to main
tain the building in first-class shape
and protect it from the abuse of any
scholars who might be Of destruc-
tive nature. And the parents OF the
scholars should cooperate with the
teachers in not only this respect, but
whenever it is at all possible to do so.
If this is done, our schools will be
much better and more will be accom-.
plished.
1t is the duty of every scholar to
help keep the building in excellent
condition and refrain from markir 6
cutting or in any other way marring
the beauty of this wonderfully bea u
tiful and convenient school
The scholars shonld remember that
the building has cost their parents q
lot Of money and should thank them
for giving them the advantages which
they in their childhood were denied,
for but few short years ago, the
school facilities of this section were
nothing compared with what they are

to become commonplace and thereby

pacity of approximately 300.
Last Saturday the beautiful drop

student body Of last year.
The Busy Workers Club have pur-
chased a fine large clock and placed
It in the building for the use of the
school. The clock cost these gener.
Gus little folks almost $4,000 and Ia

Willow Creek summit or majority for the Sal
mon river watershed in Custer County of 1906 thus
placing Challis the County Seat in the exact CEN
ter of population. From Challis to the southern
boundary line Of Custer county it is approximate
ly &c miles, from Challis to Stanley, it is ga miles,
from Challis to Custer it is "a miles; from Challis
to Goldburg it is SO miles; placing Chalis, the
county seat in the geographical center of the coun
ty. From Mackay to Stanley it is 120 miles;
from Mackay to the southern boundary of Custer
County it is only 9 miles; from Mackay to Sunol
it is 64 miles in the summer time and 79 miles in
the winter time; from Mackay to lower Round
valley it is 68 miles Mackay is in the extreme
southern portion Of Custer county and to get from
Mackay to upper Pahsamaroi valley in the winter
time it entails trip Of 12O miles.
This section Of Custer County, has, during the
past few years, advanced more rapidly than any
other section in the county, both in population and
IN wealth. A comparison of the public domain fill
ed upon and made proof on for ranch and stock
growing purposes, placing this land under taxa
ton, during the past three years puts this section
Tar IN the lead OF any other portion Of the county
IN this respect. Mining properties which have
been idle are operating again, and many new prop
pefties are opened up and are producers, where
few years ago, the land was under government
control and was therefore exempt from taxation.
This section OF the county now pays half Of the
than half 4 It is also very notable fact that ev-
en- during the past financial stringency the people
OF this section weathered the hard times as well,
If not better, than any other section in not only
the county, but the State as we'll.
During the past year, the County has acquired
very fine court house which could not be dupli-
Gated for $2O,OO0; Challis has erected $4,000
school building which is as fine as any in the
State and far surpasses any other school house lin
the county and the most of the school houses in the

The above facts and figures are given simply
to refute an unreliable and untrue statement which

Many dollars leave this section each

DEFIANCE, Ohio, May 2.-Defiance firemen, who thought they had been called out on every available sort of mission-from rescuing passengers in the gondolas of a gear damned Ferris wheel to dragging the rivers for a missing woman-received a new thrill when called into service to breakup a poker party which neighbors thought, was making too much noise.
 Answering the telephone alarm sounded at 4 a. m. by an excited woman, the fire laddies failed to They did, however, discover drawn They did, however, discover rawn shades and the telltale, "Hey Eddie!'

MOVIES

The principal attraction at the Empress Theatre for tonight at 8 sharp will be "Heliotrope," new Cosmopolitan Production. Like it's popular predecessor, "Humoresque," this is stirring story of a parents love for child. But while mother love is the primal motif in "Humo- resque," it is the sacrifice made by father to insure his daughters happiness that makes the chief ap- peal in "Heliotrope."
 Why should an innocent sprig of heliotrope placed upon the table occupied by a fashionably dressed woman and her escort at cabaret cause her to blanch with terror and pass swiftly from the gay crowd?
 Why did she barricade her door and stand ready with drawn revolv- CT, just because she sniffed the faint odor of heliotrope perfume in her room?
 When you see "Heliotrope," the feature attraction at the Empress theatre tonight you'll say that there was reason enough.
 This deeply appealing picture, adapted from the well known story by Richard Washburn Child, depicts the limits to which a father can go to protect the happiness of his daughter. Without for an instant descending into melodrama, it unfolds a plot that for sheer excitement has seldom been equalled. Wilfred Lytell, Fred erick Burton, Diana Allen and Julia Swane Gordon are included in the cast, and George D. Baker directed and wrote the continuity for the picture.

PHILADELPHIA, May 2.-Weston, the famous lon-distance "hiker," has nothing on the modern flapper, accord ing to Dr. Karl Heinstadt, noted Swiss physan, who is stopping here.
 "The average fox-trotter covers a mile and a quarter every twenty min utes." Dr. Heinstadt says. "The waltz, being much slower, covers only half that. The young woman who dances from 10 p. m. to 5 a. m., with half an hour for midnight lunch, ex- pends energy equivalent to that re- quired for a walk of thirty miles,"

WRESTLING HAS
 SUDDEN DROP WITH FANS

NEW YORK, May 2.-The noble art of atch-as-catch can, largely participated in by retired piano. movers, is dying a lingering death within the confines of the sovereign State of New York. The demise has not been proclaimed with official fi- nality, yet the end is ordained and predestined.
 If a coroner's report were ren- dered, the, verdict would be death by an overdose of legislation. The State Boxing Commission, vested with the power to control wrestling, foisted the system of flying and rolling falls upon the game, and they have eaten into it's vitals like can- cerous sore.
 Right at the moment wrestling is permitted by law, but you couldn't prove it by the number of shows that are held It is worth a pro- moter's financial life to put on a se- ries of bouts nowadays, so abortive to public taste have the flying and rolling falls become.
 MATCHMAKER IS HOPEFUL
 Until recently one Bill Wellman held down the dual role of match maker and promoter of wrestling matches at Madison Square Garden. Just now he is neither.
 Bill is hopeful soul but he doesn't carry optimism beyond the elastic limit of plain common sense He was a modern Atlas, but finding the burden irksome stepped from un- der Thus far there has been no crash, for the simple reason that in terest in the wrestling game is so trivial the sport can float in midair through it's own lack of weight.
 In all, Wellman promoted two shows. The first was a harvest, the second blight. In the former Stanis- laus Zbyszko defended his worlds heavyweight championship against Earl Caddock, and although some $25,0OO was taken in at the gate it would have been worth many times that amount to wrestling had the bout never been held.
 The Pole successfully defended his title, winning two out of three falls with the obnoxious roll" and twelve thousand fans went away vowing never to return. That was the blow that killed father.
 PROMOTER FINISHES SECOND
 A few weeks ago Wellman ven tured forth with another offering, and it was good one. Among those featured were Wladek Zbyszko, Strangler Lewis and Joe Stecher, all former champions. They would have drawn a capacity house under the old order. Not so this time. The sum of $S,O00 was in the box office when they counted the returns, and MT. Wellman finished a bad second on the meeting.
 Further, those who did attend the matches were as one in declaring that they would come no more.
 MT. Wellman is no mans sap. He put two and two together without any aid whatever from the adding machine and forthwith took it on the run.
 Thus far it has been a case of no Wellman, no wrestling Kindly omit
