PRESIDENT HARDING PICTURES
IDEAL NEWSPAPER.

The ideal newspaper, as seen By
President Harding, a newspaper man
himself, is the latest contribution to
the literature of the profession.
The Seattle Press Club publishes an
annual paper called the Camera. For
the latest number, the President con-
tributed the following very interesting
piece:
"a great share Of the criticism of
newspapers and their makers, that
comes from the outside Of the profes-
sion, is unfair and misleading, because
it is not based on thorough under
standing of the difficult conditions un-
der which newspaper men work.
''If were going to prescribe a
method of giving particular town an
ideal newspaper, would begin by pro-
viding the kind of town that would
know how to cooperate with the
makers of that kind of newspaper.
I would not have, for instance, a COM
munity of people who pretended they
did not like newspaper publicity when
they really did like it. would popu-
late this ideal town with people who
would know how to talk to newspaper
men. All you newspaper men will
know exactly what I mean.
ri would have the people of this
model town understand that it is not
only possible but usually desirable
to have many free condolences with
the newspaper men and the assurance
that the right kind of newspaper men
and this model newspaper would en-
ploy only that hnd-would always
protect condolences.
sfI would have the town recognize
fully how useful the newspaper was
capable of being to it, and would
have the newspaper inspired by pur-
pose of giving the fullest measure of
service to its community.
s'T would have an editorial staff
courageous enough to differ from the
moment 8 trend of public opinion, or
what was made to seem public opinion
at the moment; and wise enough to
maintain its best Judgment to the ut
most extent possible in the interest Of
the community, but without precipi-
tating schism and factionalism. /"

CLOSE CALL FOR FAMILY
WHEN HOME BURNS
Awakened BY Flames Judge Ellis
Rescues Children and Escapes
Burning Home In Nick
of Time.

The second visitation of the frey
demon came to the family of Probate
Judge Goo. H. Ellis about IL o'clock
last Saturday night, when his resi-
dence and its entire contents were
burned and the family escaped in their
night clothes just before the floor of
the second story gave way and the
house became seething mass of
flames. Mr.. and Mrs. Ellis and his
four children made their way bare
footed to the home of Jas. A. Spriggs,
neighbor, and the alarm was given,
but by the time the firemen got their
eyes well open the place was entirely
developed and there was little to do
but watch the spectacle and prevent
the fire 's spread. 1t is presumed the
first started from spark from or an
|overheated kitchen stove.
1t seems the family had finished its
round Of Saturday night baths about
10 'clock and retired, the kitchen be-
ing used for the bathroom. Judge
Ellis was the last bather, and he
states that while hot fire had been
kept up in the stove, he thought ho
shut up the dampers and left all safe.
The house was two-story frame, and
Mr.. and Mrs. Ellis slept in bedroom
Just off the kitchen and the four
children in rooms above. About mid
night he was awakened by flames and
smoke breaking through the partition
just above his head and, arousing his
wife, he quickly arose to investigate.
Thinking first of his children, he rush
ed to the door leading to the stairway
which led up out of the kitchen, and
was confronted with such fury of
flame that he slamed the door, and
scarcely conscious of what followed
children uppermost, he rushed into the
open and to the rear of the house
where he somehow gained the roof of
shed which gave him access to a
second-story window. This he burst
through with his hands and received
several severe cuts and scratches. He
made his way to his Oldest son bed
and found him awake and getting into
a pair of overalls. Appraising him of
the imminent danger and having him
jump from side window, the Judge
threw him some bedding and then
poked the other three dazed children
out and quickly followed them. The
floor which they had just left gave
way and there was no chance to save
anything else.
The family was made as comfort
able as possible and later taken to the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Harland Moser,
where they spent Sunday, and where
all day long friends dropped in to con-
gratulate them on their escape and
leave donations to meet their immed-
late need. On Monday they moved
into the 0. A. Ware residence, which
was furnished, and the lodges, churches
and individuals have since been gen.
erously helping to make them comfort
able.
Insurance to the amount of $1,000
was carried on the residence and $500
on the contents.

Forest Grazing Fees Payable In In
stallments

AS a measure of relief to livestock
owners who have suffered from the
widespread depression in the cattle
and sheep industry, the Secretary of
Agriculture, on the recommendation of
the forest service, has waived the re-
quirement that grazing fees on stock
using national forest ranges be paid
80 days in advance of the beginning of
the grazing period. Under the new
regulation stockmen this year will be
permitted to pay the amount of fees
due in two installments, first payment
to be made on or before the date the
stock enters the national forest, and
final payment on or before December
/, 1922, without interest on the de-
ferred amount
In 1921 over $4,000 livestock owners
grazed 2,129,50O cattle and horses, and
1855 sheep and goats largely in
the national forests of the Western
States.

Miss Scott, of the High School facul
| ty, returned last Monday after :,
weeks absence on account of the flu
The gym has been converted into a
tennis court since the closing of the
basket ball season, and several of the
students have taken up tennis as a
pastime.
The senior class is still living in
hopes, for the diplomas have already
been selected
Nearly all the students are back
again in school, and the flu epidemic
is practically at an end.
The big Hard Time Party which was
staged in the H. s. gymnasium last
Friday night, under the auspices of the
Sophomore class, was a grand success.
Everyone came dressed in old clothes,
prepared for good time. The gym
was prettily decorated with carrots,
onions and cabbage, which shows the
good taste of the said class. One of
the features of the entertainment was
a mock marriage, which furnished
amusement for everybody.
Who said the Sophs were the only
live bunch in the schools Wait until
you see the senior class play, "And
Home Came Ted,' then decide for
yourself.
The seniors are practicing their play
regularly, but are somewhat handicap
ped this week because Alonzo Spriggs
and Sarah Johnson, both members of
the cast, are absent on account of i'll
ness.
