DOWNEN WRITES INSURANCE
MANY ATTEND STOCK SHOW
Hundreds of Pullman people tool
advantage of the excellent fall
weather to attend the Northwest
Live Stock show at Lewiston last
Sunday, and incidentally to make
their first trip down the new Lewis
ton hill road. While the stock show
met with the heartiest approval, it
was the wonderful engineering ac
complishment manifested by the hill
road which caused words of admira
tion and surprise to be spoken by
every one of the excursionists. Wind
ing over the hills which have here
tofore baffled engineering science,
the new highway represents a mar
vel of engineering skill. The high
way is a great credit to -Lewiston
and the state of Idaho, and will prove
a valuable advertising medium for
the entire Northwest.

when Mask and Dagger, the honor
ary dramatic society, will present the
corned} "When the Devil Was ill,"
by Charles McEvoy. Miss Augusta
Rozlskey, dramatic Instructor at the
college is directing the play which
bids fair to equal the successes of
college plays In the past.
'.'When the Devil Was 111" is a
comedy somewhat In the nature of a
satire, full of action, and clever and
amusing situations. The lines afford
ample opportunities for good char
acter work and appropriate stage set
tings, ('buries McEvoy is an Eng
lish author and for this reason the
play has only been seen a few times
in this country, but enjoyed a long
and successful run at the noted Play
goer's theatre in England. The plot
has to do with the ridiculous and im
practical nature lovers attempting to
carry out their ideals of living.
The cast is composed of Bill Rob
inson of Spokane, Harold Truax of
rekoa, Gordon Cook, Win. Mathews.
Betty Anderson, Leona Doerr, Mar
garet Wendler, all of Spokane; Ray

organization. In this lecture Dr.
Qolder will use more pictures and
discuss some matters not covered in
his first lecture.
in view of the present crisis in
Russia, authoratlve information re
garding the conditions and senti
ment of the people is of deep inter
est to everyone. Dr. Goldef's obser
vations made in Petrograd during
the recent revolution enable him to
Interpret the events transpiring there
with clearness and understanding
and to forecast the future with some
degree of accuracy.
The price of admission will be GO
cents.
TALKS ON ROAD MATTERS
Dr. A. 1". Archer, who attended
the recent road meeting in Lewiston.
gave an interesting account of the
accomplishments of the meeting be
fore the chamber of commerce at the
Tuesday session, He called atten
tion, Incidentally, to the fact that
Lewiston and the state of Idaho have
made good with a vengeance their
promise to complete the road up the
Lewiston hill, but that Washington
is perceptibly derelict in its duty in
that it has not yet completed its very
small part of the agreement to con
nect the hill road with the Washing
ton highway. While the Lewiston
hill road now stands as a fitting
monumental tribute to road achieve
ments of the twentieth century, the
Washington part of the road is in a
deplorable condition, with every In
dication that it will not ho com
pleted this fall.
PAY HIGH TRIBUTES
TO NORTHWEST SOLDIERS
The Charlotte News, published at
Charlotte, N. c, recently gave over
nearly an entire issue to tributes
from many citizens to the boys of the
Northwest who were tenanting Camp
Green. A dozen Pullman hoys are
Included In the Camp Green con
tingent, and the words of commenda
tion spoken by the prominent citi
zens of Charlotte through the col
umns of the newspaper can not hut
bring great joy to the people of this
city, who pride themselves upon
sending to the front the best speci
mens of physical and moral man
hood to In found in any of the many
army camps.
The mayor of the city, other high
officials, and many citizens spoke in
the highest terms of the character of
the young manhood thai came from
the great Northwest.

property will become delinquent on

MOVIES TO SHOW
MILITARY CAMP LIFE
Training and Geuerul Activities of
Soldiers Will Me Depicted in
Motion Pictures
That the people "back home" are
entitled to know everything regard
ing the training and general welfare
of the soldiers comprising the Na
tional army has been Impressed upon
the War Department to such an ex
tent that the authorities have author
ized the Military Training Camps as
sociation of the United States to pro
duce a one-reel motion picture which
is to be distributed broadcast and
presented by the motion picture the
atres of the United Slates.
The second reason for the wide
presentation of the picture is to dem
onstrate that probably for the Oral
time in history the officers of the
national army have been selected up
on merit and without reference to
political and personal preference.
Tho picture, which is entitled
"Who Leads the National Army?" is
being distributed with the hearty co
operation of nearly all of the lead
ing film distributing companies and
is being put out in exactly the same
manner as any other one-reel sub
ject, the exhibitors of the country
paying the usual rental price and the
money derived from the rental of the
picture being used for patriotic pur
poses, chiefly in preparing future of
ficers.
Arrangements have been made
with George Stephenson, manager of
the Pullman movie houses, to show
the pictures in Pullman. Exact dates
for their appearance will be made
later.
Muddy Condition of the Field Aids
Materially in Holding W. S. C.
Team to a 0 to 0 Score
For almost two* tense but joyless
quarters it was the most asinine
football battle royal for which Ore
gon Agricultural College and Wash
ington State College have given par
ticipants in the past many years.
Twenty-two mud-begrimed and fight
ing athletes had flung themselves at
each other in a vain hope to cross
that No-Man's land and traverse
the goal line of the enemy. Toward
the end of the opening half, the
Crimson' and Gray was advancing
steadily but the cranky old blunder
buss officiously toted by the import
ant gentleman on the sidelines, bel
lowed forth half-time and the Aggies
trotted off to their quarters while
the Diet/, tribe, true to custom,
squatted around Chief Lonestar on
the north end of the gridiron. We
could only snatch an occasional word
from the speech of the chief to his
warriors, but we knew, when play
was resumed, that he is an orator
tor there was that old fierceness and
consistency in attack which lias
downed opposing elevens for three
years past. The ball was rushed to
the Orange and Black 18-yard line
and then came the crisis— and en
tered Si Stites, hero.
Of course, we had left behind Ben.
ton Bangs— and considerable hopes
of victory. The field was soggy and
miry, and on such a gridiron Ben
ton would have scintillated. Hut he
wasn't there to lead the attack, and
of course, kind reader, you should
know that SI, Hamilton and Benton
all eat at the same fret. Now, a lit
tle logic and jurisprudence will re
veal the motive on the part of Si
and Ham, who made victory possible
•—Benton absent, Ol' SI blocking the
punt and Hamilton carrying it over.
Of course, Si denies these allegations
and declares that although he is
aged he occasionally has young
ideas. But, nevertheless, it won the
game for XV. S. C.
