TWICE during the month if Febru-
airy the Nation will have occasion to
offer prayers of gratitude for wise
leaders of the past. On the 22nd Of
February, which is the anniversary OF
the birth of George Washington, we
shall remember how this great and |
good patriot piloted the struggling col |
onies through the confusion Of the |
Revolution to safe harborage under
the Constitution of the United States. |
On the 18th day of the month we shall
renew our love Of Abraham Lincoln,
who held so true, kind, and wise q
course through all the bitterness o.
a civil war.
In one of his philosophicalhistor
cal addresses, Ambassador Bryce call
attention to the fact that the success
of great movements in momentous cri
SEES of the worlds history is always
due to the eoincident appearance o.
great leaders. Without Moses, the
Hebrew nation would probably have
perished in Egyptian slavery; without
Alexander the Great, western Asia
would have sunk in the degradation
Of the degenerate Persian Empire;
without Julius Caesar, Rome would
have fallen Lefore the northern hor
des four centuries earlier than she
did; without Cromwell, British con
stitutional liberty might not have
succeeded against absolutism; with.
out Napoleon, the French Revolution
would have ended in anarchy and left
the dynasties of Europe mistaken;
without WASHINGTON, the jealous
les and selfshness Of local leaders
would probably have made the Amer
lean Revolution failure; and with
out LINCOLN, the United States
would scarcely have survived the cri-
sis OF 1861.
On the day of his death, Abraham
Lincoln, this simple Western attor-
ney, who according to one party was
a vulgar joker, and whom the doctrin-
aires among his own supporters accus-
ed Of wanting every element of states
manship, was the most absolute rul.
er in Christendom, and this solely by
the hold his goodnatured sagactty had
laid on the hearts and understanding
Of his countfymen. Nor was this all
for it appeared that he had drawn the
great majority, not only OF his fel
lowcitizens, but. Of mankind also, to
) his side. So strong and so persua-
sive is honest manliness without q
single quality of romance or unreal
sentiment to help it! A civilian dur
ng times Of the most captivating mil,
ltary achievement, awkward, with
10 skill il the lower technicaltics oil
manners, he lett behind him fame
Beyond that Of any conqueror, the
memory of grace higher than tie
If outward person, and of gentle
nanliness deeper than mere breed
ng. Never before that startled April
morning did such plultitudes Of me-
he'd tears for the death Of ono the,
I'd never seen, as If with him a
"iendly presence had been taken a
ay from their lives, leaving then
older and darker. Never was funer-
lpanegyric 50 eloquent as the silent

But the next week
For the sake of his wife
They carried him up the aisle

Up and down the aisle

orsed its stand. In that issue 'ne
,on,t,i News said in discussing the
AVIATION address of John D. Robertson
tate tax agent:
ave should insist that the next

members of this commission De
elected instead Of appointed ana
that their terms alternate. we
can afford to abolish many OF our
existing commissions and some Oh
our boards and numerous Offices
to make way for this essential.
And in that connection the peo-
ple could further help themselves
by amending the constitution to
vest in this commission the pow
ers and duties of the state board
of equalization. 1t is no renee
ton on the present board or on
past boards to say that such a
step will remove the equalization
question, which has a direct bear
ing on taxation, from politics"
We can talk definitely about the
burdensome taxes and recite continu
,lly that the burden is getting to be
100 great to carry, but the only way
that we can hope to get relief is to
olace the entire issue of revenue and
taxation in the hands of men quail
fed to administer the power that We
can give them to reduce the taxing
powers of local boards, to regulate
the taxation on property and, mos
important Of all, see that each ant
every class of property pays its pro
portionate share into the Golfers o
this state and thus bear its rightfu
burden of taxation.
The assessors of Idaho have dom
well to call to the attention of tn
people of this state the fact that tn
commission must have sufficient pow
er to make it's work effective. The
wisely resolved comforting on tn
commission mot only the power Q

A tax commission will centralize a

ill place this important duty in tn
hands of men who understand tax;

JOLLY STREET

II tae yea: OF 1882. in little log
cabin, the first school in Jolly Street
community was conducted by Mr.. g.
4. Mills on the old DeWalt place.
The enrolment consisted Of about
twenty-five children. In short time
the school was moved to another log
cabin about half nile from the first
one, and still taught by Mr.. Mills.
After a few years, the interest OF
the people began to grow, SO they
built a small school house on Mr..
Singley's place and it was again
taught By Mr.. Mills with an increase
in enrolment.
This school house was used for
fourteen years, being taught at diff
erent times by j. W. Stone, Miss
Minnie Willingham, Rev. P; E. Liv-
ingston, W. 3. Boinest, Misses Lila
Wertz, Mary Lou Norris, and Eoline
Wertz. 7. E. Wicker. Waldo Rikard
ard Miss Sallie kibler.
In 1907 the school house was again
moved, and built on the DeWalt place
far from the present site. A one
class room house was built and the
first term was taught by Miss Eva
Bookman. After this term Mrs. Res.
sic Richardson and Miss Mae Amick
were the children's instructors.
Again in the year 1912 the people
Of Jolly Street awokc to the fact that
they must have a nice school hc2se
so as to give their children the same
advantage as other rural children
lad. So a new school house was
built a5out two hundred yards from
the old site. near the cross roads.
This lot of two acres was presented
to the people by Mesdames DeWalt
ard Hunter. AS these ladies were SO
generous, the people honured then, by
naming the school "Hunter-DeWalt." "
On this lot was built a modern two
room building which was occupied by
the teachers, Miss Amick and Miss
Lottye Halfacre
AS the number Of scholars in
creased so rapidly, the following year
the school house was re:nodeled. An
other class room and an auditorium
were built. 'Since then the school
has steadily improved.
Some of the later teachers were:
Mr.. D. L. Wedaman,. Misses Halfacre
and Settler, Prof. E. O. Counts,
Misses Lominack and Settler, Misses
Toy Rikard, Minnie Anaics and Hell
en- Wheeler, Rev. S. P. Kcon, Mrs.
Bo;nest and Mrs. Richardson.
At the present the corps of teach
ers is Mr.. 2. A. BolanG, Mrs. Boinest
and Mrs. Richardson.
1t is wonderful to notice how the
cause of education has advanced
since the school was first begun,
from the old log cabin 70 the modern
school house of today. This shows
that our people are awakening to the
realization of the needs Of education

MRS. MARSHALL HOSTESS
TO LADIES' AID SOCIETY

Mrs. John b. Marshall entertained
80 members of the Ladies' Aid So

her home yesterday.
Mrs. Cornelia Templeton Hatcher
spoke to the guests on the work ac-

four women were members of the big
committee at the Arms Conference.

mittees.
Mrs. Hatcher said that Mrs.
Thomas G. Winter, president OF the
general federation of clubs, and who
was a member of the conference, told
her that she considered the fact that
four women attended the conference
as members, the biggest thing woman
has yet been permitted to do.
The petition for disarmament, from
the w. G. r. u, received 100000 in
dividual signatures, representing two
and one-half million women IN the
United States, Mrs. Hatcher said.
