MEET
WITH CHAMBER

In response to invitations sent out,
quite a good representation of farm
ers were in attendance at the chamber
Of commerce meeting last Friday
evening. After short business
session and a few remarks by some
of the members, the meeting was
turned over to the visitors, giving
them an opportunity to express their
views as to how the club might
further the interest of the farming
community, l. w. Kenward, A. A.
Stettler, Fred Harper T. o. Ady, Jay
Keefer, and others among the visit
ors present responded to the invita-
tion presenting some important mat
ters for the action of the club, which
the chamber will handle through the
committees of the organization. II
seems to be quite unanimous among
those who spoke, that the farmers
were lacking in organization which is
perhaps in a great measure true.
Ine chamDer, however is more lnitn
pleased to lend their oranization and
assist in any matters that are be'ie-
ficial to the farming community, and
extend standing invitation at all
their meetings for the producers OF
this community to meet with them,
members of the club, or not
and present any problem
Of interest for their consideration
and assistance The club rooms are
also open and free for any meeting
to be held by the farmers of this COM
munity, and also rest room for the
women and children, who visit Pay
cite. /

health and happiness Mr.. Luther
has been a remarkable man in his
younger days strong and powerful

INTERESTING HIGH
SCHOOL NOTES

]
The Payette teams added three
more wins" to their long string Of
victories last Friday and Saturday
nights when they sailed forth VIII
their do or die" spirit and uncon
querable fight and defeated the Wei
ser and New Plymouth basket bal
teams.
Friday night the boys team played
at Weiser and won by a score OF 19
to 12. This game proved to be the
most spectacular one played yet this
season, even surprising the game
played with Weiser in the early part
Of the season, in interest. Both teams
showed good form and had fine team
work and snappy passing. The Pay
cite boys proved to be too much for
the Weiserites. The continual use of
the bouncing pass, by the Payette
team, was one of the reasons Pay
cite won. The Weiser players were
baffled to find Payette getting away
with so many bouncing passes, but
could not break them up.
Coach Jacobson's team was some
what off form in the game with New
Plymouth Saturday night. This was
due to the game the night before, and
the fact that the fellows were neces-
sarily out late. One of Payette's
star forwards was too lame to don
suit but nevertheless the game was
Payette's from the first, although
New Plymouth put up plucky fight.
The score was, Payette 29, New Ply
mouth 8.
The Payette girls easily defeated
the New Plymouth girls by a score
of 23 to g. The girls have not lost
a game this season and have five In
games chalked up to
their credit. They are getting a
tighter cinch on the championship
every game, and basket ball fans say
-ear this year ever seen in action on
