PORIIA ENTERTAINMENT
FLEASES A CROWDED HOUSE

The entertainment given by the
Portia Club last Thursday evening
was attended by crowded house
with many not able to find seats. II
was something different from the
usual line OF amusements, it was
strictly a comedy, and a good one at
that. The ladies certainly done a
good job in collecting from their
number good subjects to fill the
places, it was one continued laughter
from start to finish, just the kind or
an entertainment we all like to see.
To one who has done considerable
travelling many of the scenes on the
"Podunk Limited" were quite ma
tural. Had this been real travel
ing troup with $1.0O admission it
would have been pronounced high
classed show and worth the price of
admission. Some of the ladies were
so completely disguised in their
makeup it kept the crowd guessing
as to who they were. They all played
their parts well and we hope they
will give us another trip on the
''Podunk Limited" or some other
similar entertainment in the near
future II might be well for the
Chamber of Commerce to try their
band at a comedy entertainment and
see what they can do.

4 SAD DEATH

Paul Crane was born in Spring
field. Mo, July "a, 1907, and died
in Payette. Idaho, Feb. s, 1923. He
had lived in Payette about seven
years and srent much of that time
in the pubic schools but in 1922 he
had 10 give up his school work, for
then the dreaded disease had a
strong hold upon him
His school life was that of an
honorable, ambitious and aspiring
pupil, and school regulations. Cour-
tesy to his teachers and the many
kind deeds to his classmates made
,'im favorite with his grade. His
careful study kept him in excellent
class standing.
And now he is gone suddenly, after
months of pain, hidden for the great
ar part from others. 1t was hard for
him to lay down his active life, hard
for him to see his beloved classmates
continue striving for promotion, while
he must look forward, fearing in
action and i'll health. But always
when friends encoura ged him to be
brave he replied, II hope I can" But
God too him.
The pail bearers, true friends and
classmates dear, carried the casket
into the Baptist church followed by
the honorary pail bearers, a group of
six girl friends, the casket was laden
with beautiful offerings.
Paurs life was that of a sincere
Christian, beautifully lived and now
he has gone to his heavenly father to
receive his Masters greeting.
Many are his friends and school
mates who deeply feel the loss of one
so worthy and faithful to duty.
Our deepest sympathy is for the
loved ones left behind.
Dear is the spot where Christians /
sleep,
And sweet the strain which Angels
pour;
oh, why should we in anguish I
weep?
They are not lost, but gone before.

HANDS HIM A LEMON

We are sometimes handed a
lemon" when it doesn't take very
well, but the lemon handed Mr.. L.
p. Hiatt last week from his brother
A. W. Hiatt, of Donna, Texas, was
the real stuff, and real lemon. II
came by Parcel Post, neatly packed
in box, and weighed 33% ounces,
and is of the Ponarosa variety. 1t
resembles a football in size rather
than the lemons we are accustomed
to seeing in this country. Mr.. Hiatt
says, if he can rustic the sugar he
can find plenty of water in the Snake
river to make lemonade for the en-
tire community this coming Fourth
of-July.
