TOURIST PARK
CHARGE PLANS
UNDERGO FIRE
Opposition of Business
Men Crops Out to Pro-
posal; Merchants Reg
lister Opposition.

Proposals by the present city admin
istration to inaugurate a charge tour
ist park plan in Caldwell were given
severe setback this week when the
Retail Merchants association formally
authorized a resolution opposing the
plan that will be submitted to the city
council. Jess Gowen, secretary of the
Kiwanis club, followed with his weekly
letter appealing for continuation Of
a free park because of arguments OF
hospitality.
Discussion of the subject has be-
come OF widespread interest Plans
are under way to give business men
and others an opportunity to express
their opinions at the next regular
Commercial Club meeting. which will
be held next Tuesday evening.
Led by R. c. Paisley, the Retail
Merchants Tuesday vetoed the charge
park plan. Together with the author
lied resolution of opposition, a COM
mittee was appointed to thoroughly
investigate the matter. On this COM
mittee are Mr.. Paisley, Carl Tyler and
Charles Austin.
Mr.. Gowen's letter, which was word
ed to include only his own personal
opinion, regardless of the club view
point, stated the matter as follows:
"A real tourist park or auto camp
ground in Caldwell where tourists can
feel they are welcome will do won-
ders toward advertising our city. To
have such a park as they will like. il
is not essential that it shall contain
every luxury they might have in a
first class hotel. On the contrary. such
if they are too numcr-
Gus. dctract instead of add to its at
Accommodations such as
facilities for cooking and bathing. can
be installed and furnished in such
way that the expense will be mini
mum.
1--WE have just joined in movement
TO advertise the Boise valley to the
outside world. We are urging folks
to visit us. Can we keep on advertis-
ng Caldwel's hospitality, friendship,
and helpfulness il we charge them for
staying a night or two in our tourist
park2
The thing to do is to make park
which is comfortable, not luxurious;
get these people out here and say tol
hem: Here is what we have for you;
you are welcome to it and we hope
you will like it, We can't sell Cald-
we'll to them or to anyone else IL we
start charging them to even make an
into our city"
The matter of charging small fee
o tourists using the park has occas-
oncd much discussion here since the
formation OF the Idaho Oregon Auto
Tourists Park association a week ago.
This was formed for the purpose of
a per diem rate for the use
,f parks by tourists. Caldwell city Of
iciaIs, who attended the meeting at

ormed, voted in favor OF per diem

INSPIRING TALK
FEATURES LAST
COLLEGE EVENT
Clendenning Declares
Religion and Science
Not Incompatible; Is
Seniors Graduated.

Twenty-eight seniors OF the College
of Idaho were svsdustsd from that in
stitution Thursday morning as the
climax of the weeks commencement
exercises. The largest crowd that has
ever attended College of Idaho COM
mencement exercise listened Thursday
morning to an exceptionally strong ad-
dress by the Rev. ]. A. Glendenning,
pastor of the First Methodist church
of Boise
Science and religion are not incom-
patible," declared the speaker. in dis
cussing this much talked of subJcc.
and pointing out to College Of Idaho
seniors, that are graduates from 4
Christian institution, it was their re-
sponsibility to carry to the world a
lesson that Christianity and science
may go forward hand in hand.
"Call men rationalized mud if v'u
wish, I do not care" declared Rev.
Glendenning. 81 do not care so long
as man cIings to ideals and faith.
Presumed intellectual superiority is
based on lack of facts. There is no
conflict between Christianity and the
last finding OF science because there
can be no conflict of truth. 1t is .he
mission of religion to give reasonable
and spiritual interpretations and apply
common sense and dignity to the facts
of life. II is the function of science to
provide these facts.
The one ultimate lesson of the war
is that we cannot build material civ
ilization upon an immaterial founda-
ton. Religion is indispensable to the
progress of the world. Religion and
science are not opposed, they are COM
plemehtary forces. | believe that in
the light of these facts, problems that
are so sorely trying us today will he
solved.
THE old order is changing" the
speaker said in closing. He admon-
ished members of the senior class to
carry on that the new order might be
directed correctly, that the best era Of
the worlds history is in the future IN
the younger generations of today. as
suming their responsibility, will but
make it so.
In presenting diplomas, indicative
of B. A. degrees conferred upon 2S
members of the class, DR.. w. ]. Boone.
president of the college. asked mem-
bers OF the class to bear in mind
that they would be world debtors, ow-
ing the world something of service,
rather than creditors, seeking what The
world might give. He asked, too, that
members of the class carry with them
through life an optimism, song of
good cheer" and pointed out in con-
cIusion that as the doughboy's grave
in France was marked "For your to-
morrow. we gave our today" il was
the duty OF citizens OF today to insure
a good heritage for those OF tomorrow.

TWO OF WRECKED
VESSELS MAY BE
SAVED FOR j. s.
BY United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, Cal, September
1.-Two of the eight vessels which
went ashore in the Santa Barbara
channel during Saturday night s
fog may be salvaged, it was learned
today.
The destroyer Chauncey, the least
damaged of the wrecked destroyer
fleet, was the object of salvaging
operation of a wreeking crew from
the Mare Island Navy Yard, which
arrived at Point Arguello today.
Plans are under way for the i'm
mediate floating of the vessel but
the other six destroyer are to be
left to their fate on the rocks. The
freighter. Cuba, which went ashore
on San Miguel Island only few
miles away, may possibly be saved
by the tug Peacock, which left San
Pedro today. Captain Holland of
the disabled boat, is remaining on
the island until this last chance of
saving the vessel either proves sue
cessful or is abandoned.
Meanwhile naval officials prepar-
ed today to give evidence concern
ing the destroyer disaster to the
special board of inquiry set up at
San Diego. Motion pictures taken
of the wrecked vessels from navy
airplanes are to be flashed on the
screen for the benefit of the invest
igators.
The work of recovering the dead
is progressing slowly and was
again impeded last night by fresh
thunderstorm which Unexpectedly
broke along the coast. Under the
fitful flashes of lightning, search
ing parties secured the barren reef
but no additions were made to the
three bodies already recovered.
Twenty men are still missing, ac-
cording to the revised official ca
sualty list, and an attempt may be
uade today to break into the hull
of the destroyer Young, where most
of them are supposed to be.

ers in the public school In the
hearing today of the injunction
suit brought by the Fisk Ieach-
ers' Agency and others to prevent
the enforcement of the law limit
ing employment agencies fees, pass
I'd bv the recent Legislature.
One of the principal witnesses
was William Payne, owner OF the
Fisk agency in Los Angeles. On
cross examination by Deputy At
tornev General Widney, Payne ad.
mitted that he paid 20 per cent OF
his gross receipts to Everett "
Fisk and company of Boston, pc
cause of the advantages it confers
in nation wide advertising cam
paigns. He pays three salaries IN
his local office, he said. He said
the new law would wipe out his
business through decreasing the
margin to a point where 1t would
not be profitable to operate.
The state contends that proper
lv managed employment agency can
do business on ten per cent com
mission basis and make good pro
fits. Among the witnesses will be
Fred Dohrman of San Francisco,
manager of the Ten Percent com,
munity placement plan bureau, ana
nresident of the San Francisco board
of education. Dohrman says he has
been running his bureau for four
wears on a ten per cent basis ana

A Hero of Norway.

When Peder Vessel was n boy in
town on the coast of Norway no
one felt sorry for him because he ran
about the streets in rags and looked
like a homeless waif. Instead, they
felt sorry for his father. a wealthy
alderman, and his seventeen brothers
and sisters. bcause Peder disgraced
them by running the good clothes his
father bought him. They did not
know that he was going to make
them very proud of him when he grew
up and was made admiral of fleet
and made nobleman by King Fred
erik, with the title of "Thundershield.
Peder loved the sea and adven-
ture, and as soon as he was old
enough he entered the navy. When
he was eighteen he was made com
mander of a small boat, and soon
after of an eighteen-gun frigate. He
proved himself so capable that the
king choose him from among fifty
older men for captaincy
Peder liked hard jobs and there
were plenty of them, for Norway was
being attacked on all sides. He al
ways overcame difficulties and rarely
lost a battle. and when only twenty
six the king made him admiral.
He did not die as he wished-in
battle on the sea he loved-but he
was killed in a duel on land when
only thirty years old.

that was pretty good, and one city
fellow reached down in his pocket
and gave a five-dollar gold piece to
Diggs as the prize. So Diggs went
off smackin' his lips over that gilt
term coin, and all the time he was
fish'n' he'd keep 1ookin' at it. One
day he was shinin' it up on his coat

and up come a big mouthed black
bass f1oppin' on his line. 1t seemed
almost in the act of gettin' away, SO
Diggs snatched at it, and if that coin
didn't drop out straight into the
mouth of the bass as the fish got
away. And Diggs had lost both the
prize and the fish.
Bout q week later I was cleanin'
some fish, and when / slit open a big
bass I'd caught there lay that five-
dollar gold piece. Which all goes
to show that the best fisherman some
