VOLUME 26. NUMBER 25. COTTONWOOD C COTTONWOOD, IDAHO, FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1918. FLEBRATION ~ JULY FOURTH Monastery. It is President Wilson’s desire and request that all citizens of the United States—native and for- eign born—unite in harmonious celebration on Independence Day—July 4th. No other celebration for this community having been announc- ed, the members of St. Mary’s church met last Sunday and ar- \ ranged fora grand and glorious > celebration to be held that day in the beautiful picnic grove near St. Michael’s” Monastery three miles west of town. A committee of 15 persons was chosen to make the necessary ar- rangements and superintend the numerous features of the program. There will be the usual speaking, singing, sports, bowling, shooting nd other entertainment usually seen at a celebration, including refreshments of all kinds. The Cottonwood band will furnish music for the occasion. An interesting feature of the program will be the decoration of a Service flag in honor of the nu- merous boys from St. Mary’s con- gregation. The new Bishop of Idaho, the Rt. Rev. Bishop Daniel M, Gor- man af Boise, successor to Msgr. A. Glorieux, will be the guest of the Monastery, and it is expected that he will honor the occasion with his presence and make a speech. Similar promises were made by Lieut. Governor Parker, Mayor J. V. Baker and other prominent citizens, oe body come and bring a basket of something good to eat. You can not celebrate with the proper spir-| it if youare hungry. Don’t get the basket. or- ill be Held in Grove at/Drafted Boys to Leave June 28 The 98 boys from Idaho county, called in the next draft, will,all meet at Grangeville next Thurs- day and leave next morning for Camp Lewis. .

In Honor of Julius Holthaus Forty of his young friends hon- ored Julius Holthaus Wednesday night with a surprise party at his pleasant home four miles east of town. Julius is in the next army draft and will leave for Camp Lewis next Friday morning. The house was beautifully dec- orated with the Stars and Stripes and the rooms ornamented with ferns, roses and carnations. The early part of the evening was spent on the lawn playing games, and the latter in playing cards, music and singing. Delicious re- freshments were served. Julius is one of our most popu- lar young men and well worthy the honor bestowed upon him by his friends, who wish him success on his perilous mission and a safe return. Soe Ea OSE The news from France and It- aly is more encouraging. The plucky little Italians have not on- ly stopped the big Austrian drive, but actually have started a drive themselves toward Vienna and say they will never stop until the Austrians are whipped to a finish. Today’s news from France is equally as encouraging. laiesschig lb apeetios ’ Death of Joseph Arnzen,’ After a lingering illness with a complication of ailments, the principal one of which was diabe- tes, Joseph Arnzen died Tuesday waning at his home in Cotton- The burial took place Thurs- day at 10 o’clock, the funeral ser- vices being conducted at the Catholic church by Father Willi- brord.
