like Santa Claus with Christmas
packages. The Ellsworth postolhce

morning mail. City carriers Will
make but one delivery, in the fore
noon, and if their trip is not com
pleted at ~ noon, they may STOP
wherever they are, and the mail Will
not be distributed until the follow
ing day. Only a sufficient number OF
clerks will be kept on duty at the
postoffice on the afternoon OF CHRIST
mas day to insure the dispatch Oh
frst-class mail Whatever the sltua-
ton, after II O'Clock on Christmas
day. no carrier shall be worked, ana
no clerks except as above speclf1ed.
After $50 a. m. on Christmas day
all first-class mail must be deposited
in the postofiice to insure its despatch
nv the afternoon mail. DO your
Christmas mailing early; don't ex-
meet the carrier to extend his trip
after - o'clock on Christmas day,
and. last but not least, don't kick
at the Ellsworth postmaster. These
are department orders; he would be
more accommodating if he could.

Of about so players at the beginning
Of the season, with only few ex-
perienced players to form the nu-
cleus of the team. From tnis he has
built a team which mas thus lar ira
proved in every game played. The
team has been going at top speed
this week in preparation tor the
Mandan game. Two hour scrlmmages
have been the rule.
The Mandan game is expected to
be the closest and hardest fought
game of the season, Including. the
contest in Mandan in which the 10
Gals nosed out victory. Man1an
will have her full strength in the
game Saturday, two of he- stars haV-
ing been out in the first contest. A
slight dose of over.confdence would
work havoc with the Bismarck
"Demons" and Coach Houser has Civ
en- them to understand that they go
into the game on even terms. but at
a disadvantage, in that Mandan has
the most to gain by victory. The
local high school rooters, realizing
the Importance of the contest, are
planning to support the team strong
er than ever before.
The game will be called at $3.50

Ruth's Record
Most Remarkable
In Big League

New York, Oct. 25.--An analysis OF
the batting performance OF BABE

compiled one Of the most remarkable

league history, despite the fact that
he failed 20 itad the American

The complete record Of the Babe,
however, and the story of his versa
tile greatness--the work that earned
him the crown of the most valuable
American League Ibayer-show him
as the big star of the year.
Walked III Times.
Unofficial records Tor the 1923 sea-
son show that Babe Ruth participant
ed in the entire schedule of the
| Yankees 152 games, a record in it
self for. Ruth. The figures also show
| that he was at bat $50 official times
that he scored 151 runs and made zoe
safe hits, giving him batting aver
age of 1874. r.
In addition to this remarkable bat.
ting average Ruth was passed by
American League pitchers III times
If these were figured as base hits
, and counted in his times at bat as
was done in the old American Asso
citation in 1887, they would give Rutf
total of 691 times at bat with 37t
hits for batting average of .544.

SULLIVAN HEADS NEAR
EAST RELIEF Committee

A number of persons interested in
the Near East relief campaign, now
under way in Moscow, met at the
home of Mrs. J. J. Day, Saturday af-
ternoon to consider details in con-
nection with the work. Those present
were Mrs. Day, Mrs. A. H. Upham,
Mrs. G. j. Orland, Mrs. Fred Bell,
Mrs. L. F. Parsons, Mr.. and Mrs. R.
S. Butterfield, Rev. Wayne S. Snoddy,
Tim Sullivan, and e. G. Newberry,
field representative for the Near East
relief organization.
R. S. Butterfield presided and Tim
Sullivan was elected chairman of the
Latah County Near East Relief COM
mittee. After some consideration it
was decided to ask each organization
in the county-churches fraternal So
cieties, etc.-for sufficient money to
support one Armenian orphan for
year, and not to solicit individuals,
unless it should become necessary, to
complete the county's allotment of
$2760. The expense of caring for each
child for one year is $50, the Latah
county quota thus providing for 46
children in the Near East relief or
phanagges in Asia Minor and Greece.
Contributions toward the fund, from
the various organizations, should be
turned in to the First National bank,
this city, which has been selected as
depository for the fund.
Mr.. Newberry has been in Moscow
for the past week, and on Sunday met
with several church organizations,
making short talks and interesting
them in the work 1t is not antici-
pated that there will be any difficulty
in securing Latah county's quota, the
sum required, when divided among the
various organizations, being compara-
lively small.

MANY FARMERS SEE
SEED PoTATOES SORTED

Fifty farmers, representing prac-
tically all sections of Latah county
that are interested in growing certi-
fled seed potatoes, attended the sort
ing demonstration that was conducted
at the Washburn-W Wilson Seed store
in Moscow, Saturday, by e. R. Ben
nett, who has charge of the certifica-
ton of seed potatoes in Idaho. The
demonstration was conducted under
the direction of County Agent 0. S.
Fletcher.
Lots of Melted Gem potatoes grown
by farmers of various sections of the
county were run over the big grader
belonging to the seed firm and the
good seed selected out by Mr.. Bennett
and farmers assisting him for the
experience. After the Gems had
been sorted, sacks of Early Ohios,
Bliss Triumphs, and Idaho Rurals
were sorted.
AS the sorting proceeded, Mr.. Ben
nett took time to explain what types
would be accepted and what would
be rejected, and why. He also dis
cussed the business of growing GER
titled seed potatoes at some length
and showed that while the production
of seed potatoes is not especially
difficult, one must realize that it
takes more care to produce certified
seed potatoes than it does to produce
commercial potatoes.
Mr.. Bennett, or someone deputized
by him, will inspect potatoes for GER
tificatiOn as soon as farmers have
sorted and apply for inspection.
