Among the Grangevillers who saw the sights in town Tuesday were Sheriff Yates, Postmaster Wisener and Auctioneer Zuver. The sheriff also visited Ferdinand that day on official business. E. E.

About a score of local K. of P. boys went to Grangeville Tues- day night and assisted the lodge of that place to initlate two new members from Cottonwood— Prof. W. A. Lustie and C. Work- man. After the lodge work a fine banquet was enjoyed by all Mr. and Mrs, Geo, F.

A few months ago Max was operated upon at Rochester, Minn., by the famous surgeons, Mayo Brothers, but not making the expected recovery it was decided, asa last resort, to try the Baltimore hospital, which ‘is considered the best in Amer- ica. However, it is hardly prob- able that Max can recover, as long sickness has weakened him to such extent that recovery (iy Oe Page tat Po for Built air tight with rivets, not fastened It’s the gether with stove bolts and putty. * more fuel it uses, the harder it is to get results. If ranges aren’t SUPPOSED to be air tight, why are the seams’ and joints of the common steel range plastered up with stove put-_ ty?

Comparison of Soldiers’ Pay The American second-class pri- vate receiving his foreign-ser- vice pay of $33 a month will be a plutocrat compared with the French soldier who draws $1.50 every 30 days, scarcely enough ettes; but the French soldier’s wage is, in its turn, princely with the 82c a month which Russia al- lows its privates. Great Britian is the most’generous, paying its privates $7.60 a month at home with an additional allowance in foreign fields. Germany pays her soldiers from 6c to 20c a day. The French government has re- vised its scale of pay since the outbreak of war and the man in the first line trenches now re- ceives a franc a day ($6.00 per month,) but all others still re- ceive 25 centimes (five cents) per Q > The pay of the American cap- tain compares favorably with that of a British colonel, a French brigadier-general, a German brigadier-general, an Austrian brigadier-genergl and an Italian lieutenant-general. pada Ss About a dozen local basket ball shooters met Tuesday and organ- ized a team, which will be known as the Cottonwood Basketball Club.
