San Francisco by lone robber was
the third that took place on the same
train within two months. The robber
escaped. Both postal inspectors and

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

Owing to so many other meetings
and places to go, the attendance al
the Chamber of Commerce Friday
evening, was rather small, however
the few that did attend held quite
an interesting meeting. The new
President, R. D. Bradshaw, after
calling the meeting to order, gave a
little talk outlining some of his views
as to the future work of the Chamber,
which was followed by the discussion
of several important matters. Per-
haps the most important was the
question of labor in caring for the
fruit crop which at this time promises
to be exceptionally large. If the
season continues without any further
frosts, the thinning of apples may be
serious proposition unless suffi-
cient help can be obtained,
At the next regular meeting Fri
day, June 1st, an invitation is ex-
tended to the fruit growers of this
section to be present to discuss the
labor situation,

FAREWELL RECEPTION

Mr.. and Mrs. E. w. Dunn and fam-
ily, who are soon to leave Payette
were given a farewell reception by a
few of their intimate Iowa friends, at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Thompson near Fruitland, on Tues
day evening of this week. There
were about 25 present, and a most
enjoyable time was had, the only
trouble seemed to be, every body
wanted to talk at the same time, the
Editor couldn't get word in edge
ways. Sandwiches, coffee, cake and
ice cream were served and Cabling
continued until after twelve o'clock.
Mr. and Mrs. Dunn will leave the
last of this week for Pine Valley
where they will remain for few
weeks. For the present they have no
definite location in view. They are
a splendid family and we regret very
much their leaving Payette.

MOTORCYCLE TAKES A FLOP

w. F. Sherwood cut rather a nasty
figure in a motorcycle demonstration,
on his way to Weiser last Monday
that would have been a humdinger on
the serene. He was going about so
per hour and suddenly run into a
newly graveled place in the road
when the machine and its rider didn't
seem to agree on which way they
were going, Billy however, continued
on down the highway, moving several
yards of gravel out of the road, while
the wheel cut across toward Jones
and landed in big ditch full of
water, the motor still running at high
speed and the rear wheel throwing
water fifty feet in the air, sufficient
to irrigate 40 acres of ground. 1t was
a lucky spill after all. Mr.. Sherwood
pulled himself together and, found
only few patches of hide missing
and the machine only slightly in
jured. With the assistance of farm
er nearby, the machine was removed
from the ditch and the journey con-
tinVed as though nothing had hap
pened.

CITY COUNCIL
ENTERTA|NS

In response to an invitation sent
out by the Mayor and City Council
Of this city, a joint meeting of the
city officials of Weiser, Ontario, New
Plymouth and Payette was held at
the city hall last Tuesday evening for
the purpose of discussing matters of
general interest to the above men
toned cities.
One of the principal subjects
brought up for discussion was the
maintenance of the tourist auto
parks, it being the sense of the meet
ing that charge should be made for
parks supported by the cities.
The desire was expressed that a
permanent organization be perfected
embracing the various towns through
this section for the discussion of mat
ters of mutual interest. The four
Mayors present were appointed a COM
mittee to invite the city councils,
president of chamber of Commerce,
president of Kwanis club and Rotary
clubs of Baker, Huntington, Weiser,
Payette, New Plymouth, Nyssa,
Parma, Caldwell, Nampa and Boise to
meet at Payette, May 31st., in joint
meeting to regulate auto parks, traf-
fic regulations and numbr of other
important matters. Those present

TEAM
IN FIRST PLACE
WESTERN IDAHO LEAGUE

Still maintaining their reputation
as the big guns of the league this
year and ability to terroriZe any old
pitcher, Payette decisively defeated
Emmett at Payette last Sunday, thus
retaining their position as leaders of
the league, and incidentally, being
the sole occupant of first place now,
Weiser being defeated at Boise Sun
day, dropped down to second place.
"Chink" Alexander, the old reli-
able, was at his best again, inspiring
confidence in the team by his ability
when in tight place. AS shown by
the summary, he struck out eleven
men and got 2 two base hits. "Hosey"
Shafer at shortstop and Bird at first
base played their positions perfectly
and the big stickwork was featured
by homerun by Perry, three bag
gers by Brooks, LaMear and Perry,
and two base hits by Alexander and
one each by Shake and Lattig. Lattig
our 'ten second" man also stole two
bases successfully. The errors Pay
cite made Sunday proved rather cost
ly, and If these can be eliminated, the
pennant is as good as ours now.
Intense interest in the welfare of
the Payette club has been created by
their showing, not only by the people
of Payette, but by the entire county
as was evidenced Sunday by the at
tendance from the surrounding COM
munities, all strong for Payette. APP
proI.nately 900 people saw the game
An addition of forty feet to the
grandstand is planned to handle the !
crowds and is certainly a necessity.
Weiser plays here next Sunday and |
with the traditional rivalry so marked
between these towns, both having
good teams, a good game may be
looked forward to. Payette is de-
termined to stay in first place and
Weiser is determined to avenge the
defeat handed .them-hx-R -Roise last
sunday. Don't miss this game.
The summary follows:

FITTING PROGRAM To- BE
HELD HERE MEMORIAL DAY

i Folks! we are planning on having
the greatest Memorial Day in the
| history of Payette. We expect an
enormous crowd, people from Weiser,
Ontario, Fruitland, New Plymouth,
Emmett, Parma, Caldwell, Nampa,
Boise, and other surrounding cities
are invited to come. An excellent
program has been arranged for in ad-
dition to the ceremonies at the ceme-
terry in the morning and unveiling of
the "doughboy'' in the afternoon.
To properly prepare for this event,
and in order to show that we are
really patriotic and appreciate what
has been done in the past for us pre-
serving the integrity of our country
it is desired and specially requested
that all HOMES AND BUSINESS
HOUSES BE DECORATED TO THE
LIMIT. Display the flag wherever
possible, if you have mast put up
the flag in this manner, draw it to
the top then drop it to half mast and
keep it there until noon, draw it to
the top for the rest of the day and
take it down NOT LATER THAN
SUN-DOWN. When the flag is draped
from building the proper side must
be displayed to public view. In
case the flag is suspended with the
stripes running perpendicular the
blue field should be in the upper
hand corner. When it is suspended
with the stripes running horizontal,
the field should be in the upper left
hand corner If the flag should be
used as a stand cover nothing but
the bible is permitted to be laid on
it, 1t is better however, not to use
the flag in this manner, bunting
should be used instead. Bunting may
be used and draped in any manner as
it is not the United States Colors.
Great preparations are being made |
for fine parade We want as many
patriotic floats entered as possible, |
business houses and fraternaI and !
civic societies are urged to enter |
floats of a nature that will depict the |
historical events of our country. |
People. we solicit your valued coop
GRAFTON in putting this over big. Do
not hesitate to come forward and |
show your patriotism and public spir-
it by assisting on this eventful day.

concert by the Payette County Band
was much enjoyed by a good or owd.
Inc band received many compliments
Tor the excellent music, but somehow
there was lack Of expressing their ap-
probation which is usually shown by
a good hearty applause, good
hearty hand clap at the close of each
number will give the boys a little in
sp1ration and encouragement. They
did splendidly and it was certainly
fine to have Saturday evening con-

like good music to put pep in a town.
