VALLEY VIEW GOLF CLUB

Member of the Valley View Club
were out zen masse" Sunday morn
ing on the course situated just east
of the city reservoir. The ideal
weather conditions prevailing at
this time and the excellent condition
of the course was largely responsible
for the turnout. Records are being
made and broken with such rapidity,
that it is hard to say to whom the
honors belong at the present time,
but rumors are to the effect that
the lady members of the club intend
to issue a challenge to the male
members for tournament to decide
whether their vaunted superiority is
reality or only a supposition on
their part.
Ontario has a golf club with a
membership of twenty-five and a
tournament will probably be ar
ranged with them later in the sea-
son.
The amount of inquiries being re-
ceived would indicate that this pas
time has taken hold of the popular
fancy in Payette and should lack of
knowledge of the game be consider
ed bar to a prospective member,
there are several members who have
acquired such a proficiency of the
game by now, that they are consid-
cred out of the beginners class.
and they are ready at all times to
impart valuable informatios cleaned
by them through bitter experience.
The club will heartily welcome new
members, and when it is considered
that the modest sum of fifteen dol
lars will furnish you with a COM
plete outfit and a membership In
what promises to be one of the lead
ing social diver sions of the town of
Payetto- apart from the healthful
recreation it affords, and the fact
that it can be played and enjoyed by
any person from eight to eighty, re-
gardless of sex, then it will be seen
that the cost is indeed very nominal.

HEALTH POSTER CONTEST

Under the auspices of the State
tuberculosis Association
More than one hundred children
in the Payette Schools submitted
Health Posters for the Interstate
Health Poster Contest, which is be-
ing conducted between the schools
in Warrington, Oregon, Montana
and Idaho.
The posters entered were excep-
tionally clever and artistic, and the
judges found it a greater task than
anticipated to select the six best
ones to represent the Payette
Schools. ---
In Boise, these six posters will
compete with those submitted from
other schools in the state There
the three best posters in each class
and division will be chosen and sent
to Spokane for the Interstate Con-
test.
Ten cash prizes are offered to the
schools submitting the ten best pos
ters in the Interstate Contest.
The pupils in the Payette Schools
who are fortunate in having their
posters selected for the State Con-
test are: Virginia Leigh, Wesley
Rose, Howard Bobbitt, Inez Equals.
Jack X. Norris and Fred Lane.

The association takes the position
that, as the highways are built by
the public and the Oregon Trail as

A fairly good attendance Of grang-

the afternoon open meeting which
was addressed by D. R. Hubbard on
the subject of a more equitable dis
tribution of the tax burden. Mr..
Hubbard has made a careful study
of the question and he very decided
" explained the Tax-Tangle, Farm
lands in many instances pay a tax
equal to half the gross earnings OF
the land, so the owner has nothing
left; the land is practically confiscat-
ed. Nine owners pay a small tax on
the net proceeds of the mines. Lum-
Der interests pay practically no
tax Fifty millions of dollars worth
of mining property in the state pays
no property tax, while the house
owner pays rent. for the shack that
shelters the family. The automc-
bile owner who drives a $4,000 car
pays the same as the one who drives
the verist ramshackle that cutters
the road If the weights are equal.
They pay on weight instead OF
worth. Many men with large in
comes pay no tax at all TO support
the state government. Income tax
is unpopular but it is fair. All taxes
are unpopular, but revenue is ne

great celebration on May L. When
the Portia Club will again make
every effort to bring the community
together for 1.-The Annual Apple
Blossom Festival" They are ex-
pecting to make it equally as worth
while, if not more so, as year ago.
Their wish is to only sponsor this
and let every part of the county and
community have hand in making
it a success. They will do all In
their power but every one must enter
in to make a bigger and bettr COM
munity in which to live. Let this be
one day when every faction may lay
aside their differences and come
in close. touch with each other.
One of the big features of the day
will be the crowning of the May
Queen by the Governor. She will be
chosen in the same way as a year
ago, by ballot. With each dollar
purchase at the stores in Payette
and. we hope in Friutland and New
Plymouth also, you will be entitled
to one vote for May Queen. We want
you to help us by remembering this
and ask for your votes or tickets, as
Portia gets one penny on every dol
lar for which ticket is given out
and with this money will finance the
big Festival" Any girls name
over 16 may be entered for Queen
and every section of the community
Is urged and expected to enter names
in this contest. The voting be-
gins on March goth and lasts to
April goth. The names so far en-
tered are: Bernice Hurd, Nancy Har-

1n the High School lawn there will
be several May pole dances, music,
parades, one in the morning and
evening, sports of all kinds and
many other ways OF entertainment,
IN which we will post you later. II

HOME SAVED BY
FIRE DEPARTMENT

The home of John Williamson on
Fifth street, was considerably dam
aged by fire last Monday about noon.
Fire was first discovered in the root
believed to have been caused by a
spark from the chimney which had
fallen in dry leaves in the gutter
The department quickly responded
to the alarm and arrived with the
chemical engine and extinguished
the blaze before any great damage
was done. The furniture was not
moved from the building or dam
aged. The damage to the building
which will probably not exceed two
to three hundred dollars, was COW
red by insurance.
