From Tenkean, Cavendish, We

Miss Countryman, director of nurs
lng activities for the Idaho Antl
Tuberculo-ls association, has be:n
doing public health work out over
the county the past two weeks. Las.
week an inspection was held à Cav
endish to determine the phy.Jca
condition of the children. This week
has been spent at Fraser and We ;

In visiting the rural communitl s
Miss Countryman remarked that th :
women in the rural disrtict were
wearing more sensible shoes tha.
the average women in the city and
small town and placed special em
phasis on the care of the feet. No
part of the body is more shamefully
abused than the feet. Just compar :
the baby's rosy, graceful, flexible
foot with the knobby, awkward ug
ly deformities that babies' feet are
turned into later in life.
Of course the ideal thing is to go
without shoes but since in modern
civilized life they ars a necessity,
the problem is to get shoes tlia* w.H
keep the natural shape
strengthen the foot. It is a goto
idea to stand on a she t of papet
and by tracing with a pencil around
the foot you can be sure to buy a
shoe whose sole is as broad and it ng
as the foot. Of course, extra lengt i
should be allowed for the little foot
to grow. The same precaution ap
plies to -.stockings.
The heel should always be low
and broad, and the soles flexible.
We have all noticed the women
trying to walk in the extremely
high heel shoe and how much diffi
culty she experiences especially on
the board walks.
The child should be taught to
beep his feet clean, the nails shoul 1
be kept short. If the ankles sen
weak, have him practice for five
minutes a day; first rising slowly
on the toes, then descending; sec
ond. stretching first the toes and
then the heels as far as possible;
third rubbing the ankles. The wro.ig
kind of shoes often is the cause ot
broken arches and weak back
which disturb the general health.
The United States Public Health
Service puts out the following sug
gestions on how to keep well.
1. Ventilate every room you oc
and
cupy.
2. Wear loose, porous clothing
suited to season weather and occu
pation.
5. If you are an Indoor worker,
he sure to get recreation out doors.
4. Sleep In the fresh atr always;
in the open If you can.
6. Hold your handkerchief over
both your nose and mouth when you
cough or sneeze and Insist that
others do so, too.
6. Always wash your hands befor ;

Obituary
Lewis Allen Davis was born at Wal
lula, Washington, December 31. 1889,
to Henry A. and Addie W. Davis. His
early childhood was spent at the place
of hts birth. When the boy was 8 years
old hts mother died, leaving him and
a brother to the care of hts father.
The young man was converted and
united with the M. E. Church south
at Staley, Wash.
His education was received in the
public schools, from which he'gradu
ated. He then spent three years as
a student at Whitman College. Dur
ing this time he united with the United
Brethren church, which honored him
with an exhorter'» license, but he nev
er filled an appointment.
After leaving Whitman College, the
young man spent some time in Idaho,
w here he again united with the M. E.
Church south. With the call of the
ministry urging him on, be went to
Milton, Oregon, to attend Columbia
College. During this time he received
an appointment as student-pastor at
Richland, Oregon, which charge he
served one year. In June, 1920, In
completed bis studies at Columbia Col
lege. The following September he was
appointed pastor of the Methodist
church at Gilbert, Idaho, which charge
he served with fidelity and with great
acceptability until the time of his
death, which occurred by accidental
drowning in a mill pond, on Monday
afternoon, July 11, 1921.

Mr. Davis had the spirit of Hie mar
tyr and the courage of a lion. This
accounts for his reticence in talking
alxmt his physical weaknesses. He
was the type of man who never knew
defeat until he was completely fam
ished and subdued. For ten months
he served untiringly the people of the
Gilbert neighborhood. He regarded It
as no odious task to sei-ve; to spend
and be spent for the cause of his high
calling in Christ Jesus. His spiritual
devotion was complete, It consumed
hiiu, body and soul,

religious experience was always an
inspiration.
Such a life, however short, is not
lived in vain. The Godly life that he
lived in this neighborhood will he the
common talk of all who knew him,
and it will Inspire other* to emulate
his example. Dying, he yet speaketh.
We have met here to pay a loving
tribute to his saiutly life. But it would
appear to me that the best and noblest
tribute that we could possibly pay to
him would be for some young man or
woman to dedicate his or her life to
the cause which our brother was so
early called to lay aside and assume
a higher one ir. heaven. Who will

SIX IDE FINED

Judge Fines Each $5 and Costa, and
Give Each a 30 Days Jail Sen
tence Which He Suspends
Six young men were arrested last
week for criminally disturbing the
peace, and were arranged before Pro
bate Judge S. M. Snyder on Monday
for examination. They all plead guilty
and were fined $5 and costs and 30
days in jail. The jail sentence waa
suspended on nil the offenders and
each placed under probation for one
year.
The probationary period plan eon
cieved by Judge Snyder is a very Ju
dicious arrangement, and will hold the
young men under restraint for one
year, and accomplish much better re
snlts than jail confinement for a short
period of 30 days that would be a con
siderable expense to the county.
VII LAGE BUYS STATE LAND

Orofino last Friday, to conduct the
sale of state land to the Village of Or»*

A tract of ten acres was purchased
