Los Angeles, Cal. April 12.-There
was time not so long ago when Los
Angeles was proud to be represented
by lady star of the fifth-now the
fourth or third industry-of the Unit
ed States, the making, distribution
and exhibition of motion pictures.
There was time when Hollywood
was the brightest jewel in the crown
of the City of the Angels. But that
was before divorce became the first
industry of the fifth industry-now
the fourth or the third-and when
one husband to a lady star of the
screen instead of five or four or three
was considered quite sufficient Now
times and customs have changed.
Take the case of Barbara LAMAR,
not only one of the most famous beau
ties of the screen, but virtually
brought up in Los Angeles and
brought up in the divorce courts four
or five times. Just now Barbara, in
all her radiant beauty and with not
a husband in sight. is somewhere east
of Los Angeles on special train with
members of all the chambers of COM
merce Of Southern California and the

particular, bearing the glad tidings

ability in the camps in Oklahoma and
Texas.
At the close Of the war. Bishop
Capers took charge of st. Paul's Mem
orial Church, which is situated right
at the center of Fort Sam Houston,
as the bishops church for army work,
appointing Mr.. Parkerson as his as
sistant with license to preach.
Mr.. Patterson has served the church
for nearly % years as a church-army
evangelist in England, as a S. p. G.
Catechist in the Diocese of Saskatche.
wan, Canada, and as a lay worker in
Nebraska and Wyoming before coming
to the diocese of West Texas.
He has shown exceptional ability in
recognizing the work of the parish
and has greatly cndeared himself Ia
the members of the congregation and
the officers and enlisted men Of the
army by his faithfulness and devotion
to duty. Mr.. Parkerson was borr

RUMMAGE SALE
TO CONTINUE

The ladies OF the Portia club have
staged another rummage sale with
wonderful success. During the fore
part of the week they accumulated
from donations, various articles In
the way of wearing apparel and
other useful articles, and on Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday the sale
was conducted in the. Payett.s Eat{en-
al hank building. The proceeds from
three days sale amounted to $4,000
which is a neat sum to add to the
building fund of the club.
If every person in the community
could realize the significance of a
rummage sale, there would be less
cast-off clothing and other accumu-
lations in the home, and less bond
fires where useful articles are often
destroyed. There are often out
grown clothing, or clothing a little
out of style and many other useful
articles that have become discarded,
that find welcome in homes where
they are needed. If you have net
been solicited there is yet time to
bring in anything you have to offer,
the sale will be continued all day
Saturday, November 18th. Don't
hesitate to bring any article you
have. If it is not convenient to make
delivery, call Mrs. R. A Crump,
chairman of the committee in charge,
however, it will be greatly appreciat-
ed if delivery is made.

P. /. S. BOYS
TO EDIT PAPER

Next week, this paper will be edit
ed by the boys of the Payette high
school who will no doubt give the
readers a better paper than they
usually find the Enterprise to be.
1t has been our desire for some time
to turn our boys loose to give tho
news and their views Of conditions
from the standpoint OF young men.
perhaps they can advance some ideas
for Improvement in the ways of older
men, at least we are going to give
them that opportunity. They have
the editors permission to become
personal if they see tit. Crack all
the jokes they like and no one is to
take offense. The boys and young
men have been the subject for much
discussion among the older men.
Now we will have a chance to hear
the young mems side of the question.

INDICATE HEAVY WINTER

From all indications we may look
for an early winter and early snow
fall, The corn husks are unusually
heavy which has long been under
stood as an indication of cold
winter. The deers that have been
brought down from the mountains
have an unusual heavy coat of hair
Many flocks of wild geese and brant
have been passing over on their
southward journey, all indicate a
hard winter and early heavy snow
fall: The snow on the high noun
tains at the present time is heavier
than common at this time of the
year. The Atlanta mail carriers out
of Mountain Home report progress
greatly hampered last week there
being at present four feet of snow
on the summit
Deep snow is not pleasant thing
to contend with, but plenty of irri-
CATION water, and good crops usual
ly follow.

BATTERY c WINS
FOOTBALL GAME

The football team from the local
artillery unit proved it's self too much
for the Fruitland All-stars, when it
won the Armistice day game at
Fruitland, by a 60 score.
Despite the fact that the Battery
&c" eleven was outweighed fifteen
pounds to the man, the play through
out the game was in Fruitland's ter
ritory and the guardsman's goal line
was never in danger.
Both teams were made up of high
school, ex-high school and ex-varsity
players, consequently though the
game was somewhat slow at times
due to lack of practice on either
side. the firm determination to win
and the accurate and vicious taekling
coupled with good sportsmanship dis
played by both elevens, made the
battle interesting from start to fin
ish.
A light snow fell during the first
I three periods of the game, but real
autumn sun Idahe spread its rays
oyer the gridiron as the closing
quarter drew to a close.

LOYAL CITIZENS

We have been hearing much about
loyal citizens" during the past few
weeks. and while the election is
over. the subject is still before US.
The person who sends Payette
dollar out of town for merchandise
which could be bought as profitably
at home is hindering progress in his
community. This is a subject much
discussed and perhaps looked upon
lightly by many, but is the one vital
principal that makes or brakes any
town and community. When quality
of goods are considered (say nothing
of the convenience and home mer-
chants guarantee) better values are
given by the Payette merchants than
the goods purchased of mail order
houses who send out catalogues full
of enticing pictues to allure the
prospective purchaser.
This was conclusively proven by
the writer's experience many years
ago while in the mercantile business.
Two ladies came into the store and
asked to try ON some coats. A per-
feet fit was found but the lady de-
clined to take the garment, saying,
"all she wanted was her size as she
was going to send to the mail order
house and produced the catalogue
showing the coat she had selected.
Fortunately the coats we had pur-
chased we're made by the same fac
tory as the ones shown in the cata-
logue, and still more fortunately. our
stock contained the coat she had
selected, sire and all, and at less
price than that given in the cata-
logue. both being marked in plain
figures. 1t is needless TO sav she
purchased the coat, saved on the
price. besides the express, a two
weeks wait. and uncertainty of salts
faction
It fs true the Payette merchants
make q profit on their goods, so does
the mail order houses. The profit of
the mall order house never comes
back 1t remains to help build up
the big cities. The profit Of the
home merchant stays at home and
helps build up the home community.
The Payette merchants bear a large
portion OF taxes and other con-
munity expenses while the mail or
der houses are in no way an asset
to the home community. If Won are
a loyal citizen you will try the home
first.

PORTIA NOTES

The Portia Club met in the dining
room of Hotel Bancroft last Monday
noon for the anniversary luncheon.
Plates were laid for forty. The
tables were beautifully decorated
with white and purple chrysanthe-
NUNS, the club colors.
After luncheon the members re-
tired to the club rooms for the busi-
ness and program. The meeting was
opened by singing America, the
Beautiful by the club.
Mrs. j. H. Helman was elected
director to fill the vacancy made by
the resignation of Mrs. R. D. Brad
shaw.
Mrs. R. A. Crump gave a report Of
the rummage sale. One hundred
fifty dollars are the proceeds thus
far. The sale will be continued next
Saturday.
Mrs. Bernard Eastman then gave
a group of songs in her usual pleas
ing manner much TO the delight of
all present.
A number on the program of un-
usual interest was the lecture on the
Holy Land by Mrs. Gatchell, who de-
scribed in very able and charming
way her recent visit to the Holy
Land. Portia was fortunate indeed,
to have this lecture and all who
missed it missed one OF the rarest
treats of the years programs.

HUNTERS SNOW BOUND

Many automobiles are snowbound
on the Weiser national forest, accor-
ing to information received Monday
at the Boise forestry Office from
Harley j. Helm. He has returned
just recently from a grazing recon
naissance on the Weiser, in which
he covered 10000 acres. Drivers
of automobiles were forced to aban-
don the machines when caught in
snowstorms. and in Mr.. Helms opin-
ion it will be spring before it will
be possible to drive the machines out.
Deer are plentiful on the forest,
according TO Mr.. Helm, and taking
advantage of the dry weather a few
weeks ago, many hunters drove to
fayorite spots at the opening of tho
season. A change of weather brought
snow, making roads impossible, In
some sections, said Mr.. Helm, the
snow is three feet deep.
