and 81 days.
She was the eldest child of Mr.. and
Mrs. John II. Sanford, of this city

She moved with her parents to Mos

On August 30, 1898, she was united in
marriage to A. s. Carley at Genessee,
Idaho, and they made their home at

Mother-the sweetest word in the
English language, and Mrs. Carley was
all that the word implies. May her
spirit visit the scenes of her reserva-
tion home and still be a guiding hand
to the father and children and the rel
atives who are left to mourn her un-
timely death.

PYTHIAN SISTERS HONOR WASH
INGToN'S BIRTHDAY.

Last Thursday evening the Frater-
nal Hall in this city was scene of
beauty and a joy for all who attended
the Washington Birthday reception
given by the local lodge of Pythian
Sisters. This popular gathering place
has been graccd by many another well
ordered PARTY during the present sea
son, but this one stood prominent
among the best.
The national colors dominated in the
decorations; flags were placed to ad-
vantage along the walls and red, white
and blue streamers made a beautiful
canopy Of the ceiling, and in the table
decorations, candles and bric-a-brac of
the period were artistically and effec-
lively used. At the head of the hall
was suspended large portrait of the
father of his country, framed in the
national colors.
The guests were received by Fred
Smith and Mrs. Leo. Robertson, well
made up and costumed as General
Washington and Martha Washington,
while Mrs. P. w. Mitchell and Mrs.
Mac Scofield and E. w. Chaplin, in
black-face and appropriately dressed,
as maids and butler of the
household.
Following well appointed intro
ductory program, progressive pinochle
received an hours close attention, and
there after the gentlemen chose their
partners for luncheon, which was not
only a very satisfying part of the pro
gram but exceedingly pretty in the
soft glow of the candle lights
Dancing, with the Virginia Reel, the
ninuet and kindred steps dominating,
Tiled the balance of that very full
evening.

BASKET BALL MEET
FULL OF SURPRISES.
FIRST Honors to Culdesac With Grange
vile Second, Nezperce Drop
ping to Fifth Place.

The following story of the confer
ence was taken from Sundays Lewis
ton Tribune:
Culdesac last night defeated Grange
vile in the final game of the basket
ball tournament with the score of 81
| to Is. J. E. Kincaid presented the sill
yer cup, which is the gift of the Lew
iston Commercial club, to the winning
team, complimenting them for their
efficiency and team work. In his re-
marks he commended the support
which the Culdesac community had
given the team throughout the season.
Those who have followed the games
of the last few days are united IN the
belief that the score of the final game
was not truly representative of the
comparative strength of the Culdesac
team and those teams which have been
eliminated during the day. The run
ners-up, the Grangeville team, by the
arrangement of the schedule had been
forced to play three elimination games
during the day, while Culdesac had not
played an elimination game since Fri
day night. In previous games the four
teams which were eliminated Satur-
day, Nezperce, Lewiston, Lapwai and
Grangeville, had shown that they were
able to play brand of basketball OF
championship calibre.
The games of the day were all close
excepting the final game. Grangeville
first defeated Nezperce by score OF
2S to 25. This was followed by 20
to 2s victory of Lapwai over Lewis
ton. Only one matched game was
played in the afternoon. In this game
Grangeville defeated Lapwais the
score being 90 to 20. Lapwai was
handicapped by the loss of Types, who
had received broken collar bone in
the Lewiston game.
Last nights game, although the
score was large and the outcome was
never in doubt, was not devoid Of SEN
sations. The playing of Pettibone, the
fast little forward of the Grangeville
team, was much commented upon. The
strength of the Culdesac team was in
evidence in the accurate basket shoot
ing and their ability to advance the
ball down the floor. The fatigue of
the Grangeville team as result of the
two preceding contests of the day was
quite evident although the players did
not cease to fight until the final
whistle blew.
Culdcsac won the trophy and the
right to contest Moscow's right to
play in the State tournament at Mos
cow two weeks hence by winning four
games. Both Lapwai and Grangeville
played five games during the series.
The relative standing of the teams,
with the number of games won and
lest, follows:

FEELING NEED OF HEALTH SER
VICE.

In the present prevalence of sick
ness throughout Lewis county the need
of the public health service is being
felt more or less acutely in all sections,
and the demand for its reestabishment
is growing stronger as its value is
brought home to us.
On Monday call for help was sent
from Winchester to the Red Cross
headquarters at Lewiston, and this was
responded to promptly by Miss Huer-
mann, who as a registered nurse work
ing under the direction of the Red
Cross, has charge of the social service
work in Lewiston. When she arrived
in Winchester she found an utter lack
of organization and proceeded to do
the best she could along this line on
so short a-notice A number of cases
of flu were reported, and while they
were not serious, conditions were such
that turn requiring heroic handling
might come at any time She sugges
ted the provision of pneumonia jackets
and other emergency supplies for that
field by the Red Cross
Mrs. Lydon, secretary of the Lewis
ton chapter, was gotten on the phone
and when questioned about assistance
for Lewis county in possible emer-
gency, stated that the headquarters
would be found ready to do all pos
sible, but its service would be much
more effective if there was local
county health service to work through;
that the many calls from all sections
made it impossible for the headquar-
ters to cover all the territory with
personal service, such as those coun-
ties having county nurses had the ad-
vantage of. She stated that the chap
ter headquarters was so desirous of
having the services reestablished in
Lewis county that they would strain
a point and provide funds for the Red
Cross IS share of the expense, as was
done under the original. contract, de-
spite the fact that this county had
only $421.5o of its $500
quota in the 1921 Red Cross Roll Call
Many people of the county only just
now seem to have come to full reah
zation that the health service was ac-
tually done away with, and with our
doctors being worked to a frazzle and
the end of this epidemic not yet in
sight the silent urge for the reinstate-
ment of the service is ceasing to be
silent and men and women are step
ping into the open and demanding to
know why, and how the thing can be
most quickly remedied. To secure the
remedy, the Red Cross organization in
his community has prepared and will
circulate petition to the board of
county commissioners for reinstate-
nent of the public health nurse, and
t is understood the organization in the
several other communities of the coun-
y are preparing to do likewise.

Grandma, v0rhies Answers Summons

e@aiAco f&1AS W ClS sSullllliou
After full life of usefulness Mrs
Rosanna Vorhies peacefully closed he
eyes in eternal sleep at her home il
this city at GAS O'Clock Tuesday
evening, February 27; death resulting
from the infirmities incident to ole
age. She had been in declining health
for long period.
Members of the family viii depart
Friday morning with the remains for
Athene, Oregon, the old home of the
family, and there the funeral will be
held and she viii be laid to rest be-
side her husband, W. D. Vorhies, who
preceded her to the grave some 20
years ago.
"Grandma" vorhies, as she was
falniliarly called by the many who
knew and loved her, was born in Ohio
in August, 1841. At the age of IL she
married Mr.. Vorhies, and they came
west 81 years ago, locating at Athene,
Ore. In 1904, two years after the
death of her husband, she came to this
prairie and located on a farm seven
miles southwest of Nezperce, living
there until May, 1920, when she pur-
chased and moved into the home in
Nezperce which she occupied until the
end.
Mr.. and Mrs. Vorhies were the par
ents of eleven children, seven sons and
four daughters, of whom one daughter
and Three sons survive: Mrs. Henry
Meiners, of southwest of this place;
Sam Vorhies, of this city, Joe Vorhies,
near Greer, and Earl Vorhies, of Troy,
Mont. Mrs. Meiners and Sam were at
her bedside when the end come, and
Mr.. and Mrs. Joe Vorhies arrived here
as soon as possible after receiving the
sad news. Earl will join the funeral
party in Athene.
Thus another good woman of the
pioneer days, the type of womanhood
md motherhood whom all men most
admire and love, who did its wonder
'ul share in the development of our
great land, goes on to her reward,
which is in heaven. And though she
s beyond physical cognizance, the in
luence of her life here and spirit over
here will ever urge the nobler, higher
motives of those who knew and loved
Ter.

probably Higher Hail Rates.

Parties returning from the confer
ence of insurance men recently held in
California, are of the opinion that
rates through this and the Lewiston
section viii be higher on hail insur-
ance during the current year, though
nothing definite has as yet been given
out on the matter. It is stated that
grain men in Montana now are requir.
ed to pay as high as Is and IS per
cent.

Basket Ball Team to Spokane.

The Nezperce High School basket
ball team left Tuesday for Spokane
where they will represent the third
district in the Inland Empire tourna-
ment held in that city March 2, 3 and
4. The team was accompanied by
Supt Rantz, Prof. Terry and Coach
Rice.
Although the team suffered defeat
at Lewiston the boys have the highest
average in this district. They have
not lost heart and expect to come back
this trip with the bacon.

The tournament from the beginning
was full of surprises. Kooskia, which
had been touted as the Ozark horse, -
was eliminated without winning d
game. The largest score of the game
was made when Lapwai defeated Cot
tonwood, Sc to 20. Many had pre-
dicted that the race for first place
would lie between Nezperce and Guide
sac with the odds slightly in favor OF
Nezperce. However, Nezperce finish
ed fifth, having won only one game,
that from Kooskia. Not much was
expected from Grangeville and Lap
wal because of their previous records.
although the former had defeated Gull
desac once. A further handicap of
these teams was that they both had
men out of the game because of sick
ness. However, Grangeville, with two
of its regular players at home sick
with influenza, finished second and
I.apwai, with one man out, was close
third.
Financially the tournament which
was in charge of the Normal, was a
success. Much credit for the success
is due to the chairman of the COM
mittee, Guy d. Barnett, of the Nor
NAL faculty. The receipts of the tour
nament, after local and general ex-
penses are cared for, will be divided
among the visiting teams to defray
their expenses.

HELP ASSESSOR WITH AGRICUL-
TURAL INFORMATION.

When Assessor Ratliff or any of his
staff call on you for agricultural data,
You should respond freely with what
you have. The following extract from
letter recently received by him from
Governor Davis explains why:
Ny attention has been called to the
books which have been mailed to you
by the immigration Department for
collection of the 1921 Agricultural
Statistics 1t is realized that you are
working under difficulties in the col
lection of this information, but I am
sure you will put forth every effort
to make complete report if you un-
derstand how many calls there are for
the figures you report.
For instance, we are using them in
our fight before the Interstate Com
merce Commission to secure lower
freight rates. Our state Public Utili-
ties Commission uses your report in
basing demands on the railroads to fur
nish sufficient cars to move our crops.
Just yesterday, the War Finance Cor
poration wanted complete acreage and
production reports for irrigated and
nonirrigated land so as to make plans
to finance Idaho farmers this year. In
addition there are innumerable calls
from business organizations and indi-
viduals all over the United States, who
want to locate with US, for accurate
information of opportunities in the
various counties.

W. A. Burghardt Hurt In Runaway.

A letter received by Emanuel Carey
the first of this week, from his son,
Earl, at Loughheed, Alberta, stated
that the latter's father-in-law, w. A.
Burghardt, was seriously injured by
being run down by a runaway team
near that city on February IS. The
injuries sustained were bad cut from
the knee to the ankle of one of his
legs and internal bruises.
1t seems Earl and Mr.. Burghardt
were out riding in cutter when a
runaway team came up-in their rear
and ran them down, ploughing right
through their rig. Earl got clear of the
wreck without injury, but the rough
shod horses knocked Mr.. .Burghardt
down and the shoe of one of them tore
his leg and then one of the animals
rolled on him, and he had to be pulled
from underneath the jumble. Just how
badly he was injured internally was
not known at the time the letter was
but since no later word has
been received it is presumed he is re
covering.
The injured man was for many yearS
one of the best known and most pro.
yressive pioneer farmers in the Moh
Ter section, but for the past several
years has been located in Northern
Montana and Alberta. His many prai-
rie friends regret his misfortune, but
are hopeful of his pulling through
without permanent injury.
