 tire
Mir. Carroll Takes Possession Today
 Thirteen Years In Putnam

This morning when Willis B. Car roll walked into the place of business on Main street conducted under the name of Donahue's Drug Store. he did so under conditions different than has been the case during the past 1S years. Yesterday James F. Donahue owned the store. Today MT. Carroll | Is proprietor, Mir. Donahue having sold his interests to the young man who had worked for him since 1910.
 Putnam's newest merchant is thor oughly familiar with every detail of l his exacting business, and it is with the most cordial and hearty good wishes for much success, extended by wide circle of admiring friends and aequaintances, that he starts out on 1 his new venture.
 Pharmacy College Graduate
 Mir. Carroll is a graduate of the Rhode Island College of Pharmacy and has been with Donahue's Drug Store for 13 years. Since 1912 he has been registered pharmacist Mir Carroll has served his city we'll as a member of the common council, hav- ing been an alderman during Mayor A. W. Marcy's administration. He has also served as member of the school committee, retiring after six years. He is a member of the Knights of Columbus fraternity and is treasurer of Cargill Council of Putnam.
 Mir. Carroll Gets Lease
 It is stated that the lease Mir. Don- ahue had for the corner store space in the block that the Stoumbehs Brothers are to erect on the site of the Donahue block that was burned on Feb. 22, has passed to Mr. Carroll, who will move his business there whenever the new store space is ready.
 Mir. Donahue has been in business in Putnam for 14 years. Few of the city's business men are more widely known or enjoyed more satisfactory patronage. He has enjoyed success and has well earned the rest he pro poses to give himself. While his fu- ture plans are net settled upon, Mir. Donahue will probably leave town.

JUDGE WALLACE SCALES
DIES AT PORTLAND

Lewiston, Idaho.-Judge Wallace \
Scales, 81, Judge of the 10Th judicial
district since it was created in 1917
died Sunday night at Portland. ac-
cording to word received here Al
though Judge Scales went to PCrt-
land a month ago for treatment in :;
sanitarium for leakage of the heart,
his death comes as shock as he
had kept in close touch with his ju-
dicial duties by correspondence up to
within two days ago.
Judge Scales was born in North
Carolina and was member of
prominent family of that state. He
came to Idaho about 80 years ago,
opening a law office in Grangeville.
He had served as prosecuting attor-
ney of Idaho county and was a promi-
nent democrat.
When the 10th judicial district was
created in 1917 Judge Scales was ap-
pointed to the bench by Governor
Moses Alexander. Judge Scales was
twice reelected, defeating B. F.
Tweedy in 1918 and Miles S. John
son in 1922.
Judge Scales is survived by his
widow and a brother, Rear Admiral
Scales, who was formerly superin-
tendent of the naval academy at An
napolis and a leader of the United
States navy.

STATE PROHIBITION
TICKET PREDICTED
GOVERNOR MOORE BELIEVES UN-
LIKELY-SAYS ISSUE REVOLVES
AROUND ENFORCEMENT

There will be a prohibition party
in Idaho in 1924, with a full ticket
in the field, is the prediction of Silas
Luttrell of Boise, who was a candi-
date for governor in 1906 on this
ticket. Mr.. Luttrell made his predic-
tiOn on the strength of a dispatch
from Washington recently, saying the
party would have national ticket in
the 1924 campaign, says the Idaho
Statesman.
Records of the secretary of states
office show there has not been a pro-
hibition party in Idaho since 1914,
when E. r. HeadIey was a candidate
for governor on the ticket He re-
ceIved 1896 votes, while Moses Alex
ander, the successful candidate, re-
ceived 47,618. Going backward from
1914, the prohibition party had
state ticket every campaign back to
and including 1900, except in the
of 1910.
Governor c. c. Moore, however.
thinks there will be no 'sdry" party
in Idaho. Prohibition is not an issue
in this state, he said
The whole question of prohibition
now revolves around the matter OF
enforcing the law as it now exists"
ne said, land the one big determining
factor in enforcing this law as well
as any law, is the will of the people.
There would never be any air
planes alighting outside Boise, deliv-
ering liquor, and there would never
De any liquor brought to Boise in
automobiles or in any other way, III
he people of Boise. as a unit, or even
10 per cent of the people, wanted the
law enforced.
"The people of the country are di-
,ided into three distinct classes on
his prohibition question. The first
,lass is made up of law defiers. per
IONS who wilfully break the law and
10 it intentionally There is the sec
md class, which winks at the law
md says to itself. 1T is all right to /
axe drink if it is offered Then |
here is the class of people who favor /
trict enforcement of the law.
No, this question of prohibition is
lot a party issue, and I repeat that
do not think there will be a prohi-
ition party in Idaho in 1924"

VACATION PERIOD
OF II DAYS Set
HOLIDAYS FOR STUDENTS START
FRIDAY CONTINUING TO
JANUARY 2

Christmas vacation opens Friday,
December 21, at the University of
Idaho for run Of II days and with
many campus activities in prospect,
Three more days and three week
ends characterize this holiday season
as one of unusual length and, to
judge from popular opinion, one of
exceptional significance.
The old campus observance of
Christmas with the tall, beautifully
lighted fir tree and the singing of
sacred carols, which are becoming
traditional In the university, will be
repeated this year. Commencing
Tuesday this giant fir will be festoon-
ed with .coIored lights every night
until after Christmas.
Students Sing Carols
Then, the day before vacation op-
ems, all students will gather around
the big tree and sing the old carols.
Practice and enthusiasm will be
gained by the singing of the carols
in the various campus groups at din
ner for several preceding evenings.
Most of the students will spend the
whole vacation in their own homes,
but for those remaining at the uni
versity many attractive affairs are
being planned.
Social Gatherings Planned
If the prohibition of the larger
social gatherings, placed on the
to safeguard against scarlet
FEVER, is lifted, many small dancing
parties at the various houses will be
arranged while informal dancing ev-
cry evening will probably be in or
Ter. Big Christmas dinners are plan
ned almost everywhere, and at the
dormitories. Forney and
halls, Christmas trees
and cozy fireside breakfasts will fig
IRE strongly.
The singing of Christmas carols
around the campus Christmas tree
was started on the suggestion of Miss
Permea1 ]. Feach, dean of women,
now on leave of absence in Boise on
account of sickness.
