Mr. Kendall reported, the approxi- mately 1,200 delegates from Ore- gon, Washington, Northern Idaho, British Columbia, and Alaska, all being cared for exceptionally well. | Reporting on conditions as he was impresed by them, he declared that the most significant aspect he en- countered was that everyone, es- pecially the .farmers of Idaho, are looking toward the future, rather than grumbling about the present. Good crops were harvested in Ida- ho last year, prices were good, and prospects are fine for this year, he stated. “The theme expressed throughout the Conference,” he stated, a looking forward to an uplift, not just in material things and effects, | but also in spiritual and moral spheres, all combining toward a steadily brightening future, this in the midst of the war clouds hovering over Europe. “William Mineas, International President of Rotary, emphasized especially the feeling of harmony existing among Oriental nations and the United States. every speaker at the conference, ' pointed out that the tide of good- will and harmonious influence is on the flood.” ————————— iNtmcy May, Age 3.

The Dads were “hm\di-I |caped” by the forced absence of their prize slugger, but bore their loss stoically. Newmarker, Jr., of the Junior C‘v {of C. squad had a hurling record of from twelve to twenty strike-| outs per game behind him as he tped the slab for Sunday’s struggle, |but his face grew steadily redder as he toiled against the Dads. In fact, Faulkner, Jr., usually a heavy 'hitter, laid his slump in yester- |day’s battle to being blinded by the glare from pitcher Newmarker’s snozzle. But the € of C lads despaired not at being nosed out in yesterday's conflict. Philosophically accepting their defeat, they immediately chal- lenged the Dads to another game, to be played in 1945. | | Line-Ups | ! Dads: Harry Sperling, pitcher;| !Dave Wood, catcher; H. L.
