COEUR D’ ALENE, Idaho, (UP)Folks in Idaho are now preparing for an influx of bashful grooms and blushing brides, since the state “gin marriage’’ law has l»een repealed, and the three day clause discarded. Repeal of the law came in the last session of the state legislature, and was pushed by business and hotel men who pointed to a falling off in trade derived from couples eloping quietly from Washiigton. It is the fond hope that Idaho’s Gretna Green status will prove more successful to the state financially than did the six months residence law regatding divorces, Boise and ( oeur T Alene had hoped to become the divorce capitals of the country, but Reno, Nev., doesn’t seem to be feeling the competition any.

I was sitting in the lamp glow in a reminiscent mood With an antiquated clothing for my mental attitude When days long since forgotten crowded into vistic view Found me idly, slowly wondering if they really all were true. If the new of realization had so soon effaced the old Snatching from us all the glamour of the stories we've been told, Crowding back the old time picture progress covers in her stride Till we most forgot her being with our flash and show of pride. Can it be this goodly gathering from its homes round here about Are the offsprings of one family, can there be a grain of doubt ? Can it be that we are gathered in a stone’s throw of the place Where my grandfather chose to linger, cast his fortune, set his face? Travel worn for journey brought hhn with a scanty earthly load From a home across the state line o’er a long and tedious road. Seeking home where fortune favored in a wilder, newer state; Knowing not of dealt out hardships, knowing not of what his fate Here, amid the wild surroundings, from the forest’s stately trees Logs were fashioned into home nests, fanned by fortune’s kindly breeze. Days and months, the years and seasons all had passed in long array, Still the trees were unmolested till the coming of his day. Slow untiring manhood labored that these mighty trees give place To the broad and rolling acres that our growing crops now grace. Through the forests here and yonder, paths and roadways were a need, So to this he bent with fervor, made a thoroughfare for his steed. Simple food, but food it must he in a new and barren land; Gotten always in one fashion—by a ' steady working hand. Comforts few and trials many, courage though we cannot know. As we follow in the footsteps of nur peets of long ago. To this scene of future promise, rode a maiden, kind and true, Who in time became his helpmate, jn time my grandma, too. Here they toiled and worked together. built a home of timely worth, Fearless in their every effort, guarding honor 'round this hearth. Try as best we may to picture early life through which they grew, We can hardly reach the limit of the hardships which they knew. Born of zeal which knew no flinching when a task they found to do. Greater courage, more enduring, we find now in very few. Wise it was no doubt in passing that our grandsires did take l.eave Of their childhood homes and playgrounds much as it did make them grieve, For the promise held to meet them was a life filled to the brim Of the worthwhile things of living if ’twas met with honest vim Here it stands: The johi log cabin, enter in with reverent head, Deep and wi le you see the fireplace where a hungry group were fed.
