of it, read how he destroyed
three thousand of them to
prove his wrath, the Evangel-
list said,
"He gave as other Scripture
references, Gal. 5:21, defining
the Greek word 'Komos' which
is translated here 'reveling'
and in Romans 1913 .rioting.'
He showed That when they IN
dulged in 'komos' they did every
thing that is done in the modern
day dance. He stressed the fact
that God said that, they which
do such things shall not inherit
the kingdom of Cog AS 9TH
er Bible evidence he gave Job
21:11-15, where the word
dance is used, and the word
grave rendered in this passage
taken from the Hebrew WORD
'Sheol,' which he said was the
Hebrew worG for He'll. After
all Bible evidence was in, the
Evangelist gave evidence from
the churches showing that as y
denomination the evangelical
bodies are united against the
dance, and then he brought up
evidence from men Of the world,
who after conversion, are al
ways the dances bitterest enc
mics. He gave some startling
figures, showing that more than
seventy-five per cent of all of
the fallen wome of the United
States ascribe their fall to the
0ance. This, the evangelist
said, means that for one to in
dulge in this bit of worldly
pleasure, must take chances
that are great enough to con-
vince any thinking person of its
evil. He said that a matron of
a home for falle women says
that Z of every 10 coming there
say they fell on account of the
dance.
"ln his closing appeal he urg-
ed the people to be fair with
the girl who falls on account Of
the dance. To not kick her
down and with outstretched
arms receive the boy back into
their midst, only to permit him
to drag another pure, sweet girl
to a brothel's He'll. When the
appeal was made for all who
would take stand against the
daf ce, at least seven-eighths of
tne large congregation of peo-
pie stood to their feet"

WHAT FLINT THINKS OF
THE MOSCOW CONFERENCE.
Says Only One Plan Considered,
Matters We're Cut and Dried
Before Hand.

To The Chronicle: The Mos
cow wheat price conference was
what a prominent farmer called
it, another fizzle."
The writer was there as a dele.
gate from Camas prairie, one of
the great wheat growing sec-
tions of the northwest. Like
dozens Of others, interested in
this vital problem, l left my
work to journey to Moscow in
the hope that something might
be accomplished and an organic
ed movement started to get
solidly behind some one measure
which will tide the wheat grow
ers over the present emergency,
some measure fair to all parties
concerned and one logical enough
to secure the support which any
measure of relief must secure
before it can be put into opera
ton. This l understood was
the purpose of the Moscow con-
ference. But insead of sitting
the proposed plans Of relief and
giving the delegates a chance to
voice their opinions as to the
best and most practical plan of
relief, there was but one meas
ure considered, the matter was
cut and dried and the resolutions
prepared before the delegates
arrived in the city, save for
small amendment which was Of
fered from the floor.
If the wheat farmer is to re-
ceive relief from the present
distressing situation we must
quit playing politics. Commercial
clubs, chambers of commerce,
farm organizations, office hold
ers and individuals must cease
to see in conferences a chance to
advertise and keep themselves be-
fore the public.
We must forget self, get down
to brass tacks, work and unite to
let. the country as a whole know
that all we ask is q square deal
without regard to what the
measure might be called. The
delegates left the Moscow con-
ference with no more definite
plan of action formulated than
when they left home, with no
start toward an organization to
back up and push through any
measure of relief, with no
scheme to get their neighbors az
home united on this great ques-
ton, only a resolution and an
allie oratorial review of candi-
tions which we already know,
too well, to exist.
Will some Moses arrange a
conference or convention that
will get us somewhere in this
matter Of wheat price?
Yours for action,
w. w. FLINT.

HORSE STUMBLES.

Saturday evening while John
Morarity was running his horse
to quickly arrive at the spot
where a tree was burning rapidly
that was hit by lightning and set
on fire on his ranch near West
lake, the horse stumbled at the
bottom Of cluvert throwing
Mr.. Morarity to the ground with
a hard force which badly shook
him up and disfigured his face.
Mr.. Morarity fell on his neck and
shoulders and the accident re-
suited in leaving his neck very
stiff and sore. He was in Cot
tonwood, Monday and while here
received medical treatments.
Mr.. Morarity belives he was
fortunate in escaping with no
serious results.

AUTO HITS BRIDGE.

While returning tuesday
evening from Uniontown, Wash,
where he had gone to get August
Wensman to assist him in har-
vest, Barney Westhoff ran into
a bridge five miles west of Craig
mont, damaging his car to some
extent. Mr.. Westhoff, who was
driving was also shaken up, so
much so that DR.. Shinnick was
called to Craigmont, where the
party was taken after the acci-
dent. Defective lights were the
cause Of the accident. The place
where the car collided with the
bridge is considered dangerous
by motorists at the best. Ben
Wensman, who accompanied Mr..
Westhoff to Uniontown was also
in the car.

AVOID SMUT
EXPLOSION
SUGGESTIONS FOR THE PRE-
vENTION OF SMUT EX-
PLOSIN IN SEPARATORS

(By Hoarac Sykes, Fire Pre-
vention Engineer, with North
western Mutual Fire ASSN
Safeguarding a grain separa-
tor from smut or dust explosion
is one of the most important
things necessary to be done in
the protection of our grain
crops, both standing grain, and
grain in the sack if near the
separator; because it frequently
happens that a separator fire
communicates to the grain caus-
ing a loss many times greater
than that of the separator.
1t will be well to first under
stand something of the nature of
a dust explosion, because to
many it seems an incredible
thing. Smut, wheat, straw, and
chaff, ar call combustible sub
stances. That is they will burn
readily, just as a piece of paper,
or block of wood. In large pro-
portions they burn slowly, but
chip will burn quicker than a
block, and a shaving quicker
than a chip, and a fine particle
of wood quicker than a shaving.
And so the finer the particle the
quicker it is consumed by fire.
A particle Of combustible mater
ial so fine that it will float sus-
pended in the air will burn in
simultaneously. Thus when the
air is charged with dust, or in
other words sufficiently filled SO
that the flame from one dust
particle can communicate to
and ignite it's neighboring parti-
cles, the flame can spread
rapidly through the entire dust
area. The rapidity of the flame,
or violence of the explosion will
depend upon the fineness of the
particles of dust and their proper
proportion with air.
1t is apparent therefore, that
the prevention of the dust ex-
rlosion is dependent upon one of
two things, either the removal of
the dust or the removal of the
spark. flame, or heat, that ig-
mites it.
The removal Of the dust can be
accomplished in two ways. By
the installation of a suction far
immediately back of the cylinder
of the machine so the dust is
drawn out mechanically. or il
can he ACCOMPLISHED in a limited
way by leaving al possible holes
doors, and openings in the sep
arator open while threshing
This will permit some of the dust
to escape and possibly keep the
dust mixture in the machine
thin enough to be non-iinflam.
axle. Another practical method
for the removal of the dust from
the machine is to stop feeding

VISITS BROTHER.

Emma A. Jensen, of Washing
ton, D. c., sister of Jacob Jen-
sen, who arrived in Cottonwood
last week to visit with her bro
ther whom she had not seen for
20 years, left this morning for
her home. Miss Jensen arrived
here unbeknown to her brother
and when she arrived at his
home he did not recognize her.
She is a teacher in the Central
High school of Washington, d.
c., one of the finest and most
modern high schools in the ma
ton. The lady came here from
San Francisco-Oakland where
she attended the convention of
the National Education Associa-
ton, she having represented the
High School Teachers Associa-
ton of Washington, D. G.
Miss Jensen also visited other
points of interest while in the
west among them being the
University of Berkley, Leland
Stanford University. At Mt
Hamilton she had an opportuni-
ty to look at the skies thru 9
world famous telescope located
at this point.
One of theamusing incidents
of her trip was the big bakeo
potatoe she received on the N
P. between Spokane and Seattle
And coming to Cottonwood she
was greatly impressed by tht
Culdesac hill and the grain fields
that one sees as soon as yol
reach the summit. Mr.. Jenser
and his wife have taken hel
over the entire prairie and tt
points of interest which sh'
greatly enjoyed. Her visit was
cut short due to the fact tha'
she must return in time to taxi
up her school work.

EMPIRE NATIONAL OF LEW
ISTON NOW OWNED BY
LEWISTON MEN.
(Lewiston Tlibune.)

The circumstances of July 26
last, centering in the disappear
ance of George Basket, book
keeper at the Empire National
bank, and the recovery of his
body from the Snake river five
days later, after the manipula-
ton of his accounts at the bank
had been discovered, were
brought to a virtual termina-
ton last night with the an
nouncement that the deficit
totaled $27,186.97, and that the
bank had not only provided the
sum out of new funds but had
otherwise fortified it's position
by adding other funds to it's re-
serves as well as a strong line of
new stockholders who have
thus manifested their conf
dence in the affairs of the bank
and its management. An assess
ment of $50 per share on the
stockholders of the bank brings
in an excess over the deficit of
$4,000 and increases it's free
working capital to $145, 1000,
while the stock held by Charles
H. Chace of Stanton, Neb., has
been sold by him to local busi-
ness men whose names give ad-
ded prestige to the institution.
E. M. Ehrhardt, president of
the Empire National bank an
nounced the new developments
as follows:

GETS INSURANCE.

A small fire broke out in 4
grain field belonging to John
Terlhaar, Thursday of last week
and destroyed 6 shocks of grain.
The fire was caused from the
sparks of passing threshing
machine engine. Mr.. Terhaar had
his grain insured with the Cen
ersl Fire Insurance Co., for
which company the Farmers
Union is local agent. Mr.. Terhaar
reported his fire, and Monday OF
this week an adjuster for the
company allowed him $7.04 for
his lost grain.

SCHOOL PROSPECTS.

Faith in the future promises well
for results. Mr.. Moll, Mrs. West
over, Mrs. Schroeder and Miss
Cameron, need. no introduction.
BY nature and temperament, we
believe there is and will be no
call, of school or community wei
fare, to which they will not en-
Enthusiastically and whole heart
edly respond.
There is every reason to be-
lieve that their loyalty and con-
cern for the general welfare,
will be supplemented by equal
unselfishness on the part of
each of the new teachers to be.
That undefinable something we
call a great soul, is always and
every where the worlds surest
and promptest conqueror. The
superintendent at least, who is
the ony one so far, to have a
basis on which to form an esti-
mate, has no hesitancy in saying
that each of the new teachers
has personality of that high
type which it is always pleas
ure to know. Sincerity, unself-
ishness, the ideal of service and
the approach of grown up pro-
blems in grown up way, are
breathed in every line of the
correspondence of each. We are
sure that each Of them adopted
Cottonwood when she signed a
contract to come here, and we
sre a poor prophet if Cottonwood
does not adopt each of them
when they come.
Following fancy for moment
we hardly know, if we could
throw off a couple score OF
years, whether we would elect
to be a boy of Is taking English
and Spanish under Miss Flora
Meyer, a girl of Is taking domes
tic science under Miss Mary L
Greenwood, a seventh or eighth
grader working under Mrs
Glenna Stewart or a first or sec
ond grader doing primary under
Miss Frances Allen. Breathin,
deeply of enthusiasm, each o
these new coming teachers look
to us like the human incarna
tion of a million dollars.
All in all we expect to conduc
a school better at every leve
: than that of last year, and twic
: as good in music, because we Wi
have s teachers instead of three

: We courteously ask that tn

HURRY?

What's your hurry, anyhow,
Racing down the street?
Driving like lGnatic,
Soaring folks you meet,
You will get there some day,
If you take your time,
Better be a little late
Than commit a crime.
Where'd you get the idea
That you owned the town,
Speeding like a maniac,
Knocking people down?
Are things so important
In the world you live
That you have to take away
Life you cannot give?
Don't you suppose to other folks
Life is dear and sweet
And like you, they've got right
To be upon the street?
Better drive little slow
Though it isn't fun,
Than to worry later
For the harm you've done.
