Clubs Hold Joint
Meeting At Boomers

In response to invitations from the
Bonners Ferry chamber of commerce
delegations from the Libby and Troy
commercial clubs met with the Bon
ners Ferry organization Monday night
Those attending from Libby were E
NJ. Boyes, preident Of the Libby club;
E E. Jaqueth, Carleton Joughin, NJ F
Gay, E w. Oylear and w. F. Kienitz
In the Troy delegation were P. A. Pet
erson, P. ]. Friesinger, Earl Angel, J.
B. Farris and Perry Wilson. F. P. Gar
ely of Eureka was also present.
The meeting was called largely to
discuss conditions arising over the re-
port that highway officials have ap-
proved the building Of new road
from Manicke to Trout creek on the
Thompson Falls highway. If this road
is built 1t will divert great amount
Of tourist travel that would otherwise
come through this district, and there
fore Boomers Ferry, Troy, Libby, Rex
ford, Eureka, Fortine, Whitefish and
other communities along this section of
the I. R. highway do not look with
much favor on the Manicke- Trout
Greek proposition
Those opposed to the present con-
struction Of the Manicke- Trout Creek
road take the stand that present
highways ought to be completed be-
tore any new construction Is started
and that finished highway ought to
b. completed to CONNECT with The hiah-
way nsar the Idaho state line before
any new routes are considered. Some
have argued that the Manicke- Trout
Creek road would give q north and
south connection between the Thomp-
son Falls route and the r. r. highway.
This argument loses its force as
north and south connection already ex-
lists in the Noxon- Bull Lake road. BY
the very nature OF the country the
Manicke- Trout Creek route must prove
expensive construction and objection
is made against starting expensive new
construction when all the money avail
able is needed for completing trunk
line highways on which large sums
OF money have already been COM
pleted.
The Montana delegation to the Bon
ners Ferry meeting called the Idaho
mems attention to the we'll known fact
that the state of Idaho had spent thou
sands Of dollars in constructing a
standardized highway to the Montana
line west of Troy and that the money
invested therein would be practically
a loss until completed highway is
finished through the Kootenai canyon
connecting with the Idaho highway
system.
The Idaho men were quick to see
the importance of the stand taken by
the visitors from Montana and prom
ised to use what influence they had
to keep construction progressing on the
highway through this section. They
could readily see that the matter in
volved was of equal importance to
their own welfare.
The Bonners Ferry organization
proved excellent hosts. A chicken din
ner was served to the visitors before
consideration of business matters, and
in every way a cordial welcome was
extended to the Montana delegations.

4 GOOD STORY

To Judge from the average book or
motion picture dealing with newspaper
work, no editor is happy unless he has
first class murder to deal with, or fail-
ing that, good snappy scandal, dis
aster or some sort of crusade.
Such incidents must be handled be
cause they are news, but it does not nee
essarily follow that they are the most
desirable news.
One Of the most interesting pieces of
news. and one that was most pleasant to
publish, was printed in this paper last
week. with no glaring headlines, and in
deed it was rather incOnspicuous.
We refer to the flfty-third wedding
anniversary OF Mr. and Mrs. Sam James
of this city.
From November IA, 1877, this happy
couple has lived together. sharing the
iovs and sorrows of married life with
each other and keeping alive the love
and mutual respect of which united them
53 years ago.
In these days when marriage Is taken
on and thrown off as one dons and doffs
a garment, it is refreshing indeed to be-
come acquainted with a case where vows
really meant something and were not
idle words.
We are not acquainted with Mr.. and
Mrs James, but it is indeed q pleasure TO
extend to them personally and on behalf
of this publication, our hearty congrat
ulations accompanied by the wish that
there will be many more anniversaries
allotted to them and that each succeed
ing wear may add to their happiness.

Creomulsion IS made to give supreme
help for coughs from colds that worry
you. 1t combines seven helps in one
the best helps known TO science. 1t is
for quick relief, for safety.
But careful people, more and more,
use it for every cough that starts. No
one knows where a cough may lead. No
one can tell which factor will do most.
That depends on the type of cold.
Creomulsion costs Sl.25-a little more
than lesser helps. But it means the u,-
most help, And it costs you nothing if
it fails to bring the quick relief You
seek. Your druggist guarantees it. Use
it for safety's sake.
