held under the auspices of the Baptist

successful meetings held in Swifton
for several years. The men were re

was imperative and the meeting clos
ed Sunday night. There were nearly
seventy conversions, a ndmber of the

“My first four weeks of camp life
in the service has been a very pleas
ant month. In our journey from Ar
kansas we passed through the Ozark
mountains. They compare very fav
orably in scenery with those of the
Rockies. Our journey took us through
the grain fields of Kansas, Nebraska'
and South Dakota and through the
western prairies. We were nearly
tv.'o days in crossing the Rockies. On
our journey we passed Custer’s fa
mous battlefield, Big Horn. Also
passed through several Indian reser
vations and were given as mu'h 1
ception by them as by the white peo
ple along the route.
Our camp is located on a beautiful
mountain slope covered with spruce,
fir and pine timber. The Columbia
river rushes hurriedly along below us.
The mountains nearby glitter with
the coming and going of day. The
most beautiful sight we behold is to
watch the distant mountain peaks
catch their caps of gold flung to
i them by the sprr before it is visible.

Taylor Dowell left last Saturday

The school board has had some real
difficulties to contend with in con

equipping it, and employing teachers.
Just now they are ■>Tery far from the
end of their troubles, especially the
last named condition. It is easy to
elect teachers but extremely diffi
cult to secure acceptance after elec
tion. At present there are two places
to be filled and they have no assur
ance that it will be done soon. The
first Monday in next month has been
f-=et as the time for school to begin.
Probably by that time everything
will be satisfactorily arranged and
' the school can proceed to the entire
satisfaction of all concerned.
