Governor Extends Sympathy To Family State Representative Robert H. Heller today received a telephone call from Gov. Henry F. Schrh Iter asking him to convey the governors sympathy to the Mattie Young family. Miss Young, who died Monday morning, was a former school teacher of the governor. Gov. Schricker also asked Rep. Heller to tell the family of Miss Young that is would be impossible for him to attend the funeral services Wednesday because of an extradition hearing. The Danger of Delay Satan, eager to break up a revival meeting on earth, asked bis helpers what they would suggest. One said: "I would tell the people there Is no God. no devil, no heaven, no hell; so why not eat. drink and be merry?" “You need not go." said Satan, “no one would believe you." A shrewder imp said: "Let me tell them the Bible is only partially true. There is a God and a heaven, but no devil and no hell. Live as you please: yon will be eternally happy.” "Only a few would believe that.” replied Satan. The shrewdest imp said: ”1 would tell that the Bible is all true: you must choose between God and Satan: but there Is no hurry.” "Go." said Satan, "you have the system.” Fish Farming Pays Lewiston.

E. Hamilton Community House in that city, to Carl i ' C. Pumphrey, president of the De- ' catur Memorial Foundation.
