aI-rnN1nRmE ACCIDENTS.

Shortly after dark Saturday eNen>
ing D. o. Bulls while coming to Pay
cite bv way of the Washoe road was
struck by a Ford car driven by Har-
old Levers. resulting in considerabl bic
damage to both cars. When nearing
the Washoe School house Mr.. Bulls
seeing a car coming toward town at
a high rate of speed pulled to one
side Just in time to be struck by the
Levers car. II seems young Levers
pulled to the right and fearing the
danger of going into the deep ditch
swung back to the left when both
cars came together. Fortunately no
one was hurt.
A few hours later, two cars came
together near the same place. We
have not learned who the drivers
were. but understand the accident
was due to fast driving and consid-
erable damage done.
The following morning Mr.. Bulls
was the victim of another accident at
the same place. Mr.. Will Griggs
who had purchased a COW of Mr..
Bulls started with the COW to the
Shamberger ranch. After going some
little distance Mr.. Griggs decided to
walk and lead the COW while Mr..
Bulls drove on with the car and
when near the Washoe School house
was over-taken by Herman Smith
accompanied BY his two little sisters.
Young Smith in an endeavor to pass
between Mr.. Bulls and the big ditch
in the west side of the road, struck
the car driven by Mr.. Bulls causing
bOth cars TO go over into the ditch to-
gether with all of the occupants in
Guiding Mr.. Grigg's little boy. there
being about three feet of water in
the ditch all were well soaked but
no one seriously injured. A truck
from Payette was sent for and both
cars taken from the ditch badly
smashed.
No criticism is offered other than
fast driving is usually the cause of
auto accidents.

MORTH OF MENTION

An exhibit at the pavilion during
Home Products Week, that is well
worthy of mention was the drawing
by We're Blair, who is taking instruc-
tions in this line OF work The draw
ing was in the form of display ad-
vertisements of the different home
product institutions of Payette. The
work was his own original ideas, and
was very artistically done. We're has
a natural talent in this line and is
making rapid progress in CONNER
cial drawing and we predict for him
success in the near future. He should
be complimented for his spirit shown
and the interest taken in boosting

In e close and exciting game Sun
day Payette lost 10 Caldwell s to 1.
Payette scored twice in the first in
ming and twice in the third on clean
hitting and maintained a lead OF
to 3 until the last of the eighth when
Caldwell, assisted By walk, slow
hit through the infield and fly to
the outfield that should have been
an easy out. scored three runs.
Though Hazeltine, pitching for
Payette, issued five passes, he was
very effective until the eighth and
helped the scoring with three hits In
three trips to the plate. Graves, who
succeeded HazeItine with one out
and two men on in the eighth looked
mighty good and with tighter field
ing would have held the hard hitting
Caldwell tribe scoreless.

Near the end of his life he joyously
accepted Christ as his Savior.

PARMA VS.. PAYETTE

Don't forget the ball game Sunday,
May Z, Parma VS.. Payette. After
the game you will say? 81 am glad
l saw the game-How could they
do it?"
Parma has a wonderful team again
this year, but Payette fans feel that
the Payette club will win Sunday.
This is the opinion of fans that saw
Payette play in Caldwell last Sunday.
Our team is under a new captain,
and will probably show new and
better lineup next Sunday than you
have seen in Payette for several
new players and old
players playing new positions.
The cold weather has kept our
pitchers arms sore, but they expect
to be in good shape by Sunday, and
we believe they will convince you
that they "have the goods.
