GIVE FOOTBALL
BOYS BANQUET

| The foot ball season closed last
! Friday evening with banquet given
! by the Payette High School, in honor
of both the first and second teams.
About sixty were seated at the table in
the dining hall of the High School
building. 1t was one of the jolliest
crowds we have seen for some time.
The banquet was served by the
Domestic Science class and was GER
tainly we'll done.
Howard Anderson acted as toast
master, introducing Paul H. Walker
and Rev. Thomas Ashworth, who
spoke briefly on the benefits Of the
football team to the school and COM
munity. Professor Adams made the
presentation speech presenting 10
cash of the boys in the teams their
emblem for services rendered during
the seasons games. Harold Cram,
Captain of the first team very nicely
to the presentation speech. |
The High School orchestra rendered
several bautiful selections which made
the evening just little more en-
joyable.
Foot ball is one branch of the ath.
letics in our high school. Athletics is |
one of the most important branches
of our schools to-day. Physical
training is absolutely as necessary as
mental training. The young man or |
young woman who attains the high !
est education must have the physi-
cal ability to put it to use or they
have failed in their preparation for
a better life. The young man who
has accomplished high education
and is physically weak, is like
Ford with a 60-horse power en-
CINE. We should encourage the ath-
letics in our public schools.

CASE SETTLED

After long months Of litigation we
are informed that the Berding Island
ranch has now clear title and is
back in the hands of Mrs. Berding,
the Supreme Court having recently

the case. Natalie V. Berding We.
Northwestern Security Co., corpor-
alton and j. W. and w. B. Slick, filed
and tried in the district court some
two years ago, and appealed to the

back to the place or at least will coh'
duct the place as dairy and hog

HAPPENINGS
Who viii be the Enter Class
Basketball Champion

1t seems hard ito tell, but every
class intends to fight hard for it, 1
know little about the girls. AS for
the BOYS the Freshman are a small
but plueky bunch. The sophomores
have some good men although they
came last in, the race last year. The
Juniors have good chance as they
were forced into third place lost year
only after playing off tie game In
an extra five minutes in which this
years Senior class had better luck and
shot two baskets to their one, beat
ing them by two points. The Seniors
do not have Jim Butcher who starred
for them last year. He seemed 10
have good luck in dropping the ball
into the basket from the middle of
the floor. But they have Eddie Cob
lentz, the only first string. man from
last years fast quintet and he plays
guard. The opposing forwards will
not find it easy to get close up Shots
at the basket. If they are beaten the
winning team win have earned the
victory.
Lets go!

Football BANQUET,

The biggest event of the year came
off last Friday night, when a foot
ball banquet was given at the high
school.
Promptly at 1880 the program be-
gan when Vern Masonheimer played
mess cali on the bugle. The guests
then marched down the stairs to their
places double file. At each place was
a place card, the shape of a football,
and on the outside was the person S
name. At each place, where the
football men were to sit, the place
card had a picture of the player in
his football suit, on the front of it.
The high school orchestra furnish
ed the music while dinner was served.
Russell Anderson, who was toast
master, kept the guests in good hu-
NOR. After dinner there were few
speeches. Mr.. Walker talked on the
value of football in the high school.
Mr. Ashworth talked on the value of
football outside the school. Mr.
Adams then presented the letters TO
the players, telling few of each fell
lows good qualities on the gridiron.
For each one he had few words be-
ginning with the letter P to tell a
few of their characteristics. Harold
Cram made a speech, accepting the
letters on behalf of the football team,
Captain-elect Ficke gave short talk
on football prospects for next year.
Coach j. r. jacobson gave a talk and
presented Captain Cram with a
large chocolate football with P. H. S.
% on 1t in gold letters. He lifted
the chocolate shell of the football and
the upper part came off and the lower
half was found to contain delicious
chocolates which were passed around
to the guests.
After this the guests went to the
gym and Marciel Wells danced for us
the Butterfly dance. The orchestra
played few pieces and everyone
danced until the hour of eleven when
Vern Masonheimer blew taps. Every
one went home fully believing that
this was the best social event of the
year. Those present were. Coach

RESIDENT
EXPRESSES VIEWS
THOS. CUSACK co.
Omaha, Nebr.

Mr.. Will Wells,
Editor Payette Enterprise:
Payette, Idaho.
- Dear Mr.. Wells :--Have just read
the splendid appeal of Mr.. Ed c.
! Shellworth in your issue of Nov. 80,
under the heading why Payette
Should Have a Band" In as much
as the writer had the pleasure OF
spending a summer in this valley
playing baseball with the old Pay
cite Shamrocks in 1908, he naturally
feels at liberty to express his views
vital necessity of Real Band" TO
an onward community.
Great pains are put forth to see
that all fruit leaving this Famous
Valley" is uniform in size, wrapped
and inspected, and, to command d
top price, a favorable impression Is
sought, an attractive imprint of the
growers name is labelled on the
case, this practice is profitable, the
publicity gained pays big dividends.
The same civic pride that prompts
this action should assert itself by
Payette citizens in the organization
of town band. Good natured sell
fishness should be manifested in this
broad movement It's something To,
toot your horn about. A serious mis-
take is made when the old-time
spirit, for the old town Band is lost,
and to this loss we add, by refusing
to assist in the promotion of the
things that are essential to the
progress and mean SO much oward
The "too busy to do
attitude will cause Pay
cite to lose heritage it is rightfully
entitled to, from every man, woman
and child within its confines. Should
MT we revive the old Spirit? Suppose
we bury the old differences of opinion
that SO frequently arise and be gen-l
erous enough to admit that in some
Of the past controversies we may
have been wrong and that thu fellow
we now think isn't worth a tinkers
cuss may prove to be valuable asset
after all.
Get the Spirit, the Spirits the
thing.

READ THE ADVERTISEMENTS
IN TITS ISSTE

The Christmas spirit is on in full
swing, the Payette merchants were
never better prepared to give the
Christmas shopper real bargains. The
advertisements in this issue are worth
reading. The windcg displays are
self convincing OF the useful bar
gains Offered. The crowded stores
are evidence of the fact that there is
no better place to find real bargains
than OF. the home merchant.

many thousand dollars through their
splendid work in responding quickly

Paying a fancy price for a ball
player Immediately causes that in
dividual to be much talked
about person.
In most cases the publicity given
a player through the medium of
some club owner paying a fancy
price for him reacts to the detTi-
ment of the player.
The public Immediately gets an
impression of the player that COM
pares with the price paid for his
services. FaHdom at once decides
that a player able to command
such big money, ought to make
good from the start.
Detroit once had Babe" Pinelli.
The White Sox also looked him
over for a brief time Detroit turn
ed him back to the coast last year.
When he left the Tigers his part
ing words were:
I'll be back inside of two years
if making an effort will get me any
where. Maybe 1 will take a whirl
at the National league this time,
since I've had two cracks at the
American"
Pinelli certainly made good his
threat. He is back in the majors
inside of year, this time with the
National league. Cincinnati pail

$4,000 for him and gave several
players to boot.
George Sisler, recently back
from playing 10 weeks in the win
ter league on the coast, was asked
what he thought of Pinelii's
chances
Is Hustling Ball Player.
HE is a hustling ball player"
said Sisler, "and hustling ball play
ers always have a chance. There
is Jimmy Austin of our club for in
stance. They have been trying to
replace Jimmy at third for years,
but he always kept on hustling and
was a tough man to displace.
II hope Pinelli makes good. I be-
lieve he will. However, l saw sew
eral other infelders on the coast
who looked like $50. 900 PROPOSE
tions to me, based On present mar
ket values"
Then there is OiConnell for whom
the Giants paid $4,000. Major
league ball players who saw him
perform on the coast say he will
have to improve his fielding lot to
hold major league berth. They
admit he can hit.
Then there are the two pitchers,
Pillette and Johnson, for whom De-
troit paid $4,000 and a bunch of
players.
