POSTAGE STAMP BOOKS ARE

7 BELIEVE that readers of The Journal
4 will find it convenient to use the little
postage stamp books which are on sale
at every postoffice and by every rural mail
carrier In this way one may always have
stamps handy, without the danger Of having
them curl in dry weather or stick together
in damp weather. These little books are
about and three-quarters by three inches
in size, and may be easily carried in vest
pocket, bill fold, pocket book or handbag.
Many folks have a place at home for these
stamp at once This may be in stamp or
stationery box, or in drawer or pigeon hole
of writing desk or books case.
Since the stamps are in perforated leaves,
one may be removed at a time leaving the
others fast in the book. Leaves Of paraffned
paper are inserted between the stamps, so
they cannot stick together.
Only one cent each is charged for pre-
pairing the stamp books, which sell as fol-
lows:
Book of t*enty-four one-cent stamps, Is
cents.
Book of twelve two-cent stamps, % cents.
Book Of twenty-four tWO-Cent stamps, 40
cents.
Twenty-four ones and twenty-four twos in
book, 70 cents.
Forty-eight two-cent stamps in book 81
cents.
However, one may avoid this extra ex-
pense, and still have stamps handy and in
good condition, by keeping some little book
in convenient place, and putting the
stamps when purchased between the leaves
of this book They Will not curl and viii
always be ready to use.

Robert E. Lee

"a
~ the American stage great drama of
the South in which the leading char
acter was Robert e. Lee. The actor who
undertook to portray Lee was a man of
genius; in stature, in weight, he was almost
counterpart of the Southern general; his
makeup was triumph of art and the
words placed in his mouth were manly and
sincere. Abroad, and in some sections of
America. the character and the drama were
accepted and praised; but the South rejected
them. Confederate veterans, sons and
daughters of Confederate veterans, yes. and
even the grandsons and granddaughter, rec
ognized the counterfeit. AS to the South the
enterprise was flat failure
Commenting this event a Northern
critic said, briefly and with no evident in
tention Of speaking an epigram, that the
trouble, the insurmountable difficulty. which
confronted the play, was that every South
erner, old and young, carried in his or her
heart a picture of the real Lee, and that art
man, no grander testimonial to faith and
love has ever been recorded
But there was another difficulty in the
path Of that drama, which had to do with
psychology The actor was forced to reduce
his character to the dimensions of living
manhood; to offer him in the form Of an
actual man, and from eucb anvironp,ont no
mind of the South has long since lifted Rob
ert E. Lee. Ordinary men, even men who
attain fame in our midst, diminish stature
with the years. Looking down the long per-
spectives we find ourselves often, amazed at
the dwarfing of figures that once appeared
gigantic among those of their generation.
How shrunken, how little and futile they
seem; how hollow their eloqueuce, how
puerile their wit. Time has estimated and
measured them and revealed their true pro-
portions. The great, the truly great, are
those who grow larger. as the perspective
deepens.
And therein is the problem that no art OF
the stage can solve. 1t is a task for art of
another kind, and the great sculptor, Gutzon
Borglum, has that art. Brought to the issue,
his psychology reacted to that Of the South
and he saw the great leader in a perspective
of mountains and of clouds, the figure of a
giant. With an unthinkable skill, with a
vision prophetic and with an energy hardly
conceivable, he has brought back and re
corded in proportions commensurate with ma
lures mighty environment, the head of the
South's great chieftain. When today the veil
is drawn aside, It will be as though the clouds
have neen parted, that once more we may
look Into the eyes OF our immortal dead
In giving first place, without debate, tc
Robert E. Lee, we of the South do lot forget

who justified his faith in them; but he wa;

M ODERN complex industrial life
M plunges everyone into a scientific
environment so that no one can
escape the deluge Of scientific terms. But
he may get them wrong. Each new discov-
cry starts a parasitic growth of pseudo
science.
There is north pole; but Cook didn't
discover it.
There is magnetism; but not animal
magnetism"
There is wireless teIegraphy; but that
does not prove telepathy
There are elections; but "electronic"
cures do not follow.
From miscellaneous reading in the papers
the average layman gets a confused, com
posite, half-digested impression to the eff
feet that Science Says"
People are descended from monkeys"
the sun is made Of radium; Mars is inhab-
tied by of canal diggers; the ancient
Mayas knew all about relatively; the earth
is getting hotter; the earth is getting
colder; the earth will be smashed up by
running into a comet; the average mental
age of Americans is thirteen; all progress
comes from a superior Nordic race; man
kind is losing all its teeth and hair; the
world is going to starve to death from over
pOpulatiOn; the world is going to die off
from race suicide; Conan Doyle proved the
existence of fairies; drinking sour milk or
grating goat glands will make everybody
live to $50; there is no soul; everybody has
two or three souls; according to Freud you
must give rein to every impulse die of a
complex; all rheumatism comes from bad
teeth; all diseases can be cured by ma
nipulating the backbone; Harvesting the
power of the tides will replace coal as a
source of power, etc. etc.
Some of these notions are false some are
hypothesis which may or may not be true,
some are truths badly expressed or placed
in misleading context. The result is that
the layman either becomes skeptical of all
science or credulously falls victim to the
first faker that can manipulate imposing
catchWords.
Not only do new superstitions crop up
from the soil fortified by genuine discovery,
but the old weeds still Iinger. Dream books,

MASS MEETING
SATURDAY FOR
CHEESE FACTORY

Upon the request OF several of oul
citizens we are publishing a call for
a general mass meeting at the court
house for next Saturday afternoon at
2:30. The meeting will take up flnd
discuss various matters of vital in
terest to property holders of the SAL
mon river section of Central Idaho.
An effort is to be made to induce
capital TO install a creamery and a
cheese factory here, thus giving the
farmer market for his dairy produ CT
and at the same time giving him a
better price for his hay.
A great amount of cream is ship
ped from Salmon river to Pocatello al
considerable greater expense than the
shipment of butter and cheese would
incur. We have the COWS and we
have the feed is the contention and a
creamery and cheese factory would
mean pay checks in countless num-
Der where none are received now.
A special invitation is extended to-
farmers of Pahsamaroi and the upper
Salmon river, as well as farmers in,
other outlying districts to attend.
Matters of importance to the min
ing industry will also be taken up at
the meeting and it is requested that
those interested in mining, as. well
as all business interests, attend.

CLUB
HOUSE IS Being
PLANNED HERE

A plan is being worked out by
school officials at Challis whereby
the eighth grade gradutes in outlying
districts may attend the Challis High
school at small expense.
The plan is to establish students
boarding club, where students may
live and furnish food materials from
the homes.
The Club will be- under the imme-
date supervision of an efficient ma
iron or "house mother, together with
the School Superintendent and Prin-
cipal.
The members of the Club will do
the work as planned and directed by
the matron. The school authorities
will guarantee a firm, but kindly dis
cipline and home-like conditions for
the students.
By having the members of the Club
do the work and furnish supplies, the
necessary cash expense for each one
will be very small.
Every boy and girl now should have.
at least a high school education, and
it is believed that the plan outlined
above will enable considerable num-
Der, in territory tributary to Challis,
to have the advantage of high school
The Challis High School is now an
accredited four year High School and
its new building affords excellent IA
cilities for doing good work in all de-
partment. An up-to-date practical
course will be offered and the commo-
dious gymnasium provides opportun-
ity for athletics and physical culture
work.
Send in your name now. You viii
incur no obligation and this early ac-
ton may be TO your benefit next Sep
TENDER when school opens.
A more complete detail of the plan
will be given TO anyone inquiring.

Giggling is sheep vacuity. so the
thing to do is to fill the void in
stantly with good stiff job. 1t is
fatal to say, What are you Eiggling
about?" That brings more giggles
They are giggling about nothing
nothing at all-and the senselessness
of such proceeding makes any in
tilligent person feel foolish and act
so. That's all. Give them a job
Never hint that you noticed the col
lapse of their dignity. Just reinstate
it.
Here, children-this pile of books
Tor dishes, or sticks, or whatnot) has
the big ones there. and you, Ellen,
take these over there, and here. Pc
ter, get a chair to stand on. Send
them all scurrying and put them to
work.
But laughter Is a different thing
Laughter is a healthy. hearty exer-
else of the soul and the body When
a child laughs he has given himself
up to gentleness and kindness and
good fellowship and fun. a child
cannot laugh with the slightest trace
OF anything ugly in his heart For
that reason a child's laughter Is to
be sought for and treasured.
Not that planning for 1T, setting
traps to catch 1T, laying trails to lure
1t, will ever capture it. Real laugh
ter comes unbidden and unguided. 1t
is as free as the bird on the wing or
the light breeze that f1utters the
petals of apple blossoms. 1t is
freeing of the soaring spirit of
child. We who listen wistfully to it's
ripping merriment know it as a SYM
boil Of a golden time gone by. Age
rarely laughs in the accents of child
hood. The golden quality has escaped
on the wings of the years.
Wise teachers and parents know
the vast space that divides laughter
from giggles. Their trained ears de-
tect 1T instantly, but they do not al
ways know what to do. Should
child laugh in school? Yes, of course,
School is part of everyday life and it
ought to be enriched with peals of
childish laughter.
But giggles? Giggles are a sign of
trouble. Intelligence is slumbering
| when giggles abound. Ride over the
top of them and give each giggler a
job that will set him to work, inde-
pendently of the group. The group
has lost the idea that was holding it
together and is reduced TO vagueness
and emptiness. The giggle is the
protest of the subm mind. Pull
the mind up with good smart job.
Ignore the giggles. Work kills
them.

Furniture I'm Relays

If Rome wasn't built in a day, nei-

So, If you're A bride. and if you're
buying those first pieces for your
home, don't succumb to the lure of
furniture in "sets"-buy it in relays.
The brides problem as she fur
nishes that first home usually re-
solves itself into this: Either she may
elect to have cheap suites in her
living room, her dining room, her
bedroom-which in all proba ability,
she hopes to replace later with bet
ter furniture-or she has the courage
to face those empty spaces in her
rooms which our American minds are
supposed to abhor-and she has the
even greater bravery required to let
the callers, who are sure to come in
a few days, face them, too,
However. furnishing in relays may
addition to courage and common
sense. the bride uses judgment. The
best solution of the difficulty is for
her to put most of the furniture
money available into just two or
three luxurious pieces, perhaps of
overStuffed furniture, fine enough to
compensate for the lack of such sup
posed "neceSsarieS' as sofas. day
beds. floor lamps. desks, handsome
rugs and knick knacks.
The bride might. for instance, start
with two truly beautiful chairs. fine
enough to raise the tone of the liv-
