More People Are NoW
Reading the Holy Bible
100000 Copies of the Good Book
Were Distributed Last Year.

A few years ago it was case of
Bibles, Bibles everywhere, but not a
thing to read. But now many millions
of people, Hindus and Chinese, and
even some Americans, are discovering
that the book can be read with both
profit and pleasure.
Frank Hurt Mann, secretary of the
American Bible Society, declared to-
day that his organization alone dis
tributed 100000 Bibles during 1922.
About 30,O0O,O00 were distributed in
all.
Hundreds of thousands, according
to Mann, went to the Far East. He
thinks that one reason for the great
increase in sales is due to the fact
that the opponents of Eastern civill-
cation wish to see and study the book
upon which they believe Western civ
ilization is largely founded.
The popularity of the Bible is
greater than ever before.

RIP VAN WINKLE AND "A
SCHOOL OF TODAY
MARY Nell FittS)

hid Won ever try to imagine just
what a modern Rip Van Winkle
would think if he were suddenly
weakened today after having slept Tor
nrrhans fftv wears? How astonished
he T6nld be to find himself in the
midst of the complicated lie OF this
twentieth Gentry! He would be great
" astonished at all OF the modern IN
yentions, pullman trains, street cars
automobiles, telephones, aeroplahes
and wireless telegraphy, but great as
his surprise would be at all these
wonders it would probably be no
greater than his establishment on Wis
ting a really modern school,
The school that Rip Van Wlnkle
knew when he was a boy was the
little red school house" where ne
had reading and writing and nth
metic, taught to the tune Of hickory
stick" The school of his time appeal
ed to very few boys, for they had no
conveniences. The first thing that old
Rip would notice would be the dit,
ferent kinds of boys and girls, and
second he would notice the different
kinds of education. In the little red
school house. to which he went there
were only a few books and only few
kinds of things to learn. But today
not only are there spelling, arithmetic
and Latin, but everything in the great
and wonderful world OF nature, bust
ness and industry. The third great dis
covery, greatest Of all to Rip Van IA
Wrinkle, was that the teachers regard
ed lust the training of the mind as
very small part of education. They
told him that they educated the heart
as well as the head and produced, tne,
big-hearted, noble boys and developed
ambition as well as cultivated the
memory.
Rib Van Wrinkle was very, much
impressed by all that was told him
about the new methods Of teaching,
and the results were SO wonderful that
he wanted to see the work done with
hic own ewes

LATAH TO CARE
FOR 40 ORPHANS
LITTLE ARMENIAN SUFFERERS
ON MERCY OF AMERICA-MOS.

Forty-six among Americas huge
foster family Of orphan children in
bible lands and neighboring countries
children who have been robbed of
their parents by war, massacres, or
by sickness and starvation during de-
portations-have been thrown upon
the mercies of Latah county resi-
dents.
This number from among more than
a quarter of million homeless and
destitute little boys and girls who
have thus been left stranded by the
hideous tragedies Of Asia Minor, have
been assigned to this county for a
years help as Latah county's share
in the national child-saving program
of Near East relief.
Under the general leadership of Tim
Sullivan of this city, the fund-gather-
ing effort, with the above goal in
view, is being launched in all Sec
tions of the county this week. e. c..
Newberry, field director for the Near
East relief will visit practically every
town in the county during his stay
here.
Moscow has accepted responsibility
for 23 Of the orphans--one half of
the entire county allotment-as its
part in the benevolent enterprise.
Potlatch comes next with five of the
orphans to care for. Troy and Gene
see have each been asked to raise q
sufficient fund for four of the orphans,
while Juliaetta and Kendrick have
three orphans each, as their quotas.
The people of Bovill are asked to
finance the care of two orphans, and
Deary, Harvard, and Princeton have
quotas of one orphan each.
Sixty dollars is required for the |
care of each orphan for one year in |
an orphanage of the Near East relief. |
Through a rigid enforcement of self
help program, under which all but |
the very smallest children Of the re-
lief orphanages are required to assist
in caring for themselves, this SIS per
month or $50 per year for each child
not only provides food, shelter and
clothes, but every child is given tea

BUS occupations in order that they
will become entirely self-supportiAg

AVIATORS COVERED
BYESANDS OF DESERT

San Diego, Calif.-(A. P.)-" Cover
ed by the shifting sands of the de-
sert," is the unofficial verdict of the
fate of Col. Francis Marshall and
Lieut.. Charles Webber, army avia-
tors who have been missing since
December 7, 1922, ACCORDING ~ mem
bers of searching party headed by
Major Theodore Macaulay of Rock
we'll Field, here, who have just ended
frultless search for the two men.
Major Macaulay says that since
January II, he and his party have
thoroughly explored the mountain
Businesses and desert wastes of nor
thern Sonora, Mexico, and southwes-
tern Arizona. No trace of the army
aviators was found by the govern
ment party.
Major Macaulay says his search re-
vealed the fact that Col. Marshall and
Lieut.. Webber never topped the Grow
Ter mountain in their intended flight
from San Diego to Fort Huachuca,
near Tucson, Ariz. Their flight was
traced from Rockwell Field to point
near the Growler mountain range, but
beyond this point the party could
elicit no information from ranchers
and cowboys that would tend to show
the plane had proceeded further east
ward, Major Macaulay said.
The government searching party
was unanimous in stating that the
fate of the two army officers probably
will remain forever mystery. The
sands of the Ajo desert prob
ably has covered men and plane for
ever, the army searchers stated.
The final chapter to the tragedy
vas written In Washington, D. c., last
week, according to word received here,
when memorial services were held for
he two army officers. Many promin-
snt officials of the United States
lrmy attended, including the secre-
airy of war, General Pershing, and |
1rs. Francis Marshall, widow of the |
ost colonel, who travelled from her !
lome in Wisconsin to attend the me-
norial exercises.

BEST GOVERNED
COUNTY in STATE
REPORT OF EXPERT ACCOUNT
ANTS ON LATAH'S FINANCES
COUNTY FIFTH IN STATE.

The auditing firm of Byron Defen-
bach & Sons, Inc, have completed
their fifth biennial audit of the re-
cords of Latah county, and have filed
their report with the Board of Com
missioners. Previous reports made
by the same concern run back as far
as 1907, and taken together form an
interesting financial history of the
county.
Viewed as a financial organization,
Latah is of considerable Importance.
1t has an assessed valuation of $21,-
100000 and is the sixth county in
Idaho.
Its total cash receipts from all
sources per annum has reached over
100000, of which about SO per cent
comes from direct taxation, five per
cent from auto licenses, and nine per
cent from sundry fees and earnings.
Assessed valuation in 1907 was $14,-
100000, but while the valuation of all
property has increased only so per
cent, the total tax rolls have grown
about 230 per cent cash received about
$50 per cent. Receipts of cash in
1910 were 100000 as against $716,0O0
in 1922.
Best Governed County.
Notwithstanding this tremendous
increase in taxation, this firm of audi
tors has always maintained that La
tab is the best governed county in the
state and this claim they again re-
peat.
1t is clear that the increased ex-
penditures for public service are not
caused by excessive costs of strictly
county operation. While in 1910 1t
cost $53, 900 to operate the county
activities, it had grown to only $71,-
900 in 1922, an increase of some 25
per cent in county whose wealth had
grown SO per cent in the same period.
The specific cost of most of the
county offices remains about the same
as IL years ago. 1t cost only 800
more to operate the auditors office
in 1922 than in 1910. The only offices
showing any marked Increase are
those Of the assessor and treasurer.
In earlier years it was the custom to
combine the cost of these two posi-
tions in all statistical tables. This
combined cost in 1910 was $4,000, and |
in 1922 $4,000, an increase of so per
cent. The auditors ascribe this in I
crease to the chaneg in law making |
the treasurer tax collector instead of
the assessor, change made in 1912 |
Mr.. Defenbach pronounces this change
a mistake, not justified by any real
evil of the former system.
The great increase in costs lies in
for public schools, roads,
and state government.
School Costs Increase.
The cost of schools has grown from
100000 in 1910 to $270,O00 in 1922,
IN increase of $50 per cent. 1t is
stated that the cost of schools is
growing more rapidly than any other
)hase of public expense, the care of
he poor being close friend.
State taxes have also increased $50
,er cent, from $4,000 to $145, 900.
)wing to constant changes in the
Dad district and highway laws, it Is
ound difficult to compare costs, but ;
he increase has been very great. {
A careful comparison Of department
osts with group of four other ,
Ounties, all somewhat smaller than 7
.atah, makes a fine showing for this ,
ounty. The following table gives the I
ost of operation in Latah; also aver G

County Free Of Debt.
In the matter of present financial
condition the county has an enviable
distinction. 1t has no bonded debt
whatever, and on January 8, 1922, had
practically no outstanding warrants,
while the cash in the treasury
amounted to $290,000. Practically no
interest is paid on warrants at any
time, and the earnings from interest
on bank balances furnishes an an
nual income of some $500.

10000 Will See
Football Game
In Tiger Arena
BY HENRY L. FARRELL
United Press Staff Correspori dent

PRINCETON. n. j., Oct. 49,
Princeton, from the youngest fresh
man to the senior leader, does not
entertain any fancies that it takes
an all-American team to win foot
ball game.
After last years experience when
a Tiger eleven, in which only in
tense loyalty could see the makings
of team at the start of the season,
swept through the schedule unde-
feated, the Nassau campus was con-
vinced that spirit was the main
thing for victory.
; While most of the wise minds of
the east are willing to show their
sympathy by sitting on the mourn
er's bench as the great Notre Dame
squad heads into Jersey for the big
gest game of the east tomorrow,
Princeton is not considering acting
as ~" '"+t a. any kind of a woke.
Tho Princeton campus considers
the Mick eleven which downed
the powerful ARMY eleven last week
as a serious rival but not a word
or 1T mas been allowed to reach the
ears of the squad or Coach Roper.
From the advance sale of tickets
it is considered that 10000 specta-
tors will be in the stadium tomor-
row.
