Where have all our children gone? Two girls, in search of America School suppy lists Growing up in Orofino in the 1930s - Page 2A - Pages 10B - Page 8A - Page 10A 50 cents plus tax CLEARWATER TRIBUNE Volume 99, Number 32 Thursday, August 16, 2012 Two Sections Published every Thursday at Orofino, Idaho 83544 - Clearwater County - Second Class (USPS 117-340) Section One Firefighter dies near Aquarius Anne Veseth Anne Veseth, a 20-year-old Moscow native and a student at Lewis Clark State College, Lewiston, has been identified by the U.S. Forest Service as the firefighter killed Sunday afternoon, Aug. 12, while combating a wildfire near Aquarius Campground, about 15 miles northeast of Headquarters. Veseth was a seasonal firefighter for the Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forests. She was struck by a snag when a tree fell and crashed into another tree, causing a domino effect. She was part of a Forest Service crew on the Steep Corner fire, which was under the command of the Clearwater-Potlatch Timber Protective Association (CPTPA). The actual cause of death will be determined by the local county coroner but was initially reported as being caused by a falling tree or debris during suppression activities. Veseth, who was studying auto mechanics at LCSC, was in her second season as a wildland firefighter with the Clearwater-Nez Perce National Forests. She had been involved in fighting fires in both Arizona and Colorado already this year. Veseth was a Seven-day weather forecast WEDNESDAY-Sunny, with a high near 88 and a low around 53. Calm wind becoming northeast 5 to 8 mph in the afternoon. THURSDAY-Sunny, with a high near 89 and a low around 58. Northeast wind around 5 mph. FRIDAY-Sunny, with a high near 95 and a low around 55. SATURDAY-Sunny and hot, with a high near 98. SATURDAY NIGHT-A slight chance of showers and thunderstorms. Partly cloudy, with a low around 55. SUNDAY-A slight chance of showers and thunderstorms.

Mostly sunny, with a high near 89 and a low around 55. TUESDAY-Mostly sunny, with a high near 94. This weather forecast is provided by the National Weather Service in Missoula, MT. qualified level 2 Firefighter involved in initial attack and general wildfire duties for suppression, mop-up and other duties related to fighting wildfires. Veseth was the daughter of Claire Veseth, Moscow, and the late Roger Veseth. She was the winner of several academic scholarships her senior year at Moscow but told a Lewiston Tribune reporter in June 2010 that she didn’t want to sit and stare at a computer all day, explaining her choice to study auto mechanics. Veseth’s father died in a tubing accident in 2003 near his home in Moscow. According to U.S. Forest Service Chief Tom Tidwell, “The Forest Service family is in mourning following the tragic death of one of our firefighters in Idaho over the weekend. Our hearts go out to the family and friends of this brave young woman.” Regional Forester Faye Krueger echoed Tidwell’s sentiments in her own remarks, “We are devastated by the loss of this young woman. This is a stark reminder of the inherent dangers our men and women face every day on the fire lines of wildfires all over the country.” The Forest Service is assembling a team of investigators scheduled to arrive earlier this week. The primary purpose of the investigation is to understand how and why an accident occurred to prevent future incidents. It is critical to begin the investigation as soon as possible to ensure that important information is not lost, misplaced, or contaminated. These types of investigations can last from several weeks to a few months to thoroughly and accurately identify all factors in the case. Veseth was initially taken to Pine Hills Funeral Chapel in Orofino, and then later transported to Vassar-Rawls Funeral Home in Lewiston, where arrangements are pending. Of the 58 U.S. Forest Service wildland firefighter fatalities between 2002 and 2011, eight (14%) were Large Airtanker accidents; 22 (38%) were helicopter accidents; 10 (17%) were burnovers; 11 (19%) were driving accidents; two (3.5%) were heart attacks; two (3.5%) were hazard tree incidents; and three (5%) were from other causes such as a fall from a vehicle, fall from a structure, or being struck by a vehicle.

(See more photos page 10B.) E-911, may the force be with you By Alannah Allbrett Clearwater County has the latest electronic emergency response system in the country. The E-911, which is a true ”enhanced 911” system, tracks emergency calls via the Clearwater County Sheriff’s office. Over five years in the making, the system tells dispatchers who is on the line, pulls up a map of the caller’s location on a Camatron screen, shows nearby EMT and hospital services, and provides the caller’s location both graphically on a map and in written form. With, “just a few bumps in wiring issues” Sheriff Chris Goetz said the project went live Wednesday, Aug. 8, tying in calls from landlines for citizens of Clearwater County. Cassidian Communications is the company that manufactured the sophisticated monitoring equipment that is housed in a special room, kept at a constant 68 degrees for maximum efficiency. When a 911 emergency call comes in, a map automatically pops up on a computer screen for the dispatcher, indicating the caller’s whereabouts. The system uses a touch screen monitor that serves as virtual phone. Besides providing maps and location information, the system allows the dispatcher to forward calls with one touch, and they can pass on live information to other counties on the system. The E-911 system operates on a Windows 7 OS platform and has 24/7 technical support should something fail. A dispatcher may place conference calls to tie in police, fire and ambulance services, as well as hospitals, and utility companies in the event of power, flood, fire emergencies. Rex Ireland, of Frontier Communications, and Paul Stromberg of Cassidian were both on hand guiding the installation process Last Week's Weather Clearwater Tribune Online Poll VOICE YOUR OPINION Last week’s poll Campaign ads for this November’s election have been airing on TV for weeks.

The dispatcher also has at his/her disposal, a numeric keypad to physically enter phone numbers if necessary. That type of keypad is useful in the case of assisting a hearing impaired caller who might be contacting 911 services through specialized phone equipment. Many times dispatchers get callers who have dialed wrong numbers, such as a person calling the Department of Motor Vehicles when they need vehicle licensing instead. Sheriff Goetz said, as “good customer service” dispatchers can transfer those calls with one touch to the screen, saving the caller having to redial to get the right number. At present, cellular phones are not tracked on the new E-911 system, however, plans to include cell phones are nearing completion. By Aug. 28, Verizon Wireless,will be tied into the system, and Inland Cellular is scheduled to be onboard by late October 2012. This will allow law enforcement to track a reported drunk driver as that vehicle passes each milepost, even as they leave Clearwater County to enter Nez Perce County. Currently, there are still some dead zones between Kayler’s Bend (along Hwy. 12) to Lenore, where the system cannot operate. Based on a five year study on 911 call volumes in Clearwater County, two Camatron lines were deemed adequate to handle the calls. Nowadays, “redundancy” is the key goal of technology, so four lines were established to provide backup in the event of failure to part of any of the system.

Friday night while I was in the laundry room at home the toilet tried to flush on it’s own so I rattled the handle. When I walked away it made a strange noise so I took the lid off and put my hand in the water and pulled up the chain on the valve. Just then I saw a tiny snake slithering around the inside wall of the tank. I yelped, jumped and slammed the lid down as quickly as possible. What a shocker! The Phantom calmly came to my rescue bearing an almost empty iced coffee latte cup, a straw and rubber gloves. He took the lid off the toilet tank and the slithering little snake had moved to the oppostie side of the tank and was hanging off the handle inside the tank. The Phantom used the straw to flip the snake into the cup and popped on the lid. It was obvious the snake was trying to escape a watery death in the tank of a toilet. The Phantom said the snake was probably sitting on the valve and made it flush. I asked the Phantom later what he did with the snake and he said, “I took it to the airport and let it out by my hanger.” He said at first the snake didn’t want to leave the coffee cup which still had a little ice and coffee in it, but once he tapped the cup on the rocks the little guy slithered away into the night. He said, “He was just a little garden snake and won’t hurt anybody.” Now we are trying to figure out how the snake got in the tank of the toilet. The laundry room is downstairs and has a window that’s ground level.

The ark of God’s testament is in the holy of holies, the second apartment of the sanctuary. In the ministration of the earthly tabernacle, which served “unto the example and shadow of heavenly things,” this apartment was opened only upon the great Day of Atonement for the cleansing of the sanctuary. Therefore the announcement that the temple of God was opened in heaven and the ark of His testament was seen points to the opening of the most holy place of the heavenly sanctuary in 1844 as Christ entered there to perform the closing work of the atonement. Those who by faith followed their great High Priest as He entered upon His ministry in the most holy place, beheld the ark of His testament. As they had studied the subject of the sanctuary they had come to understand the Saviour’s change of ministration, and they saw that He was now officiating before the ark of God, pleading His blood in behalf of sinners. The ark in the tabernacle on earth contained the two tables of stone, upon which were inscribed the precepts of the law of God. The ark was merely a receptacle for the tables of the law, and the presence of these divine precepts gave to it its value and sacredness. When the temple of God was opened in heaven, the ark of His testament was seen. Within the holy of holies, in the sanctuary in heaven, the divine law is sacredly enshrined—the law that was spoken by God Himself amid the thunders of Sinai and written with His own finger on the tables of stone. The law of God in the sanctuary in heaven is the great original, of which the precepts inscribed upon the tables of stone and recorded by Moses in the Pentateuch were an unerring transcript. Those who arrived at an understanding of the important point were thus led to see the sacred, unchanging character of the divine law. They saw, as never before, the force of the Saviour’s words: “Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law.” Matthew 5:18. The law of God, being a revelation of His will, a transcript of His character, must forever endure, “as a faithful witness in heaven.” Not one command has been annulled; not a jot or tittle has been changed. Says the psalmist: “Forever, O Lord, Thy word is settled in heaven.” “All His commandments are sure. They stand fast for ever and ever.” Psalms 119:89; 111:7, 8. In the very bosom of the Decalogue is the fourth commandment, as it was first proclaimed: “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all they work: but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.” Exodus 2:8-11. The Spirit of God impressed the hearts of those students of His word. The conviction was urged upon them that they had ignorantly transgressed this precept by disregarding the Creator’s rest day. They began to examine the reasons for observing the first day of the week instead of the day which God had sanctified. They could find no evidence in the Scriptures that the fourth commandment had been abolished, or that the Sabbath had been changed; the blessing which first hallowed the seventh day had never been removed. They had been honestly seeking to know and to do God’s will; now, as they saw themselves transgressors of His law, sorrow filled their hearts, and they manifested their loyalty to God by keeping His Sabbath holy. Many and earnest were the efforts made to overthrow their faith. None could fail to see that if the earthly sanctuary was a figure or pattern of the heavenly, the law deposited in the ark on earth was an exact transcript of the law in the ark in heaven and that an acceptance of the truth concerning the heavenly sanctuary involved an acknowledgement of the claims of God’s law and the obligation of the Sabbath of the fourth commandment. Here was the secret of the bitter and determined opposition to the harmonious exposition of the Scriptures that revealed the ministration of Christ in the heavenly sanctuary. Men sought to close the door which God had opened, and to open the door which He had closed. But “He that openeth, and no man shutteth, and no man openeth,” had declared: “Behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it.” Revelation 3:7, 8. Christ had opened the door, or ministration, of the most holy place, light was shining from that open door of the sanctuary in heaven, and the fourth commandment was shown to be included in the law which is there enshrined; what God had established, no man could overthrow. Those who had accepted the light concerning the mediation of Christ and the perpetuity of the law of God found that these were the truths presented in Revelation 14. The messages of this chapter constitute a threefold warning which is to prepare the inhabitants of the earth for the Lord’s second coming. The announcement, “The hour of His judgment is come,” points to the closing work of Christ’s ministration for the salvation of men. It heralds a truth which must be proclaimed until the Saviour’s intercession shall cease and He shall return to the earth to take His people to Himself. The work of judgment which began in 1844 must continue until the cases of all are decided, both of the living and the dead; hence it will extend to the close of human probation. That men may be prepared to stand in the judgment, the message commands them to “fear God, and give glory to Him,” “and worship Him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.” The result of an acceptance of these messages is given in the word: “Here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.” In order to be prepared for the judgment, it is necessary that men should keep the law of God. That law will be the standard of character in the judgment. The apostle Paul declares, “As many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law, . . . in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ.” And he says that “the doers of the law shall be justified.” Romans 2:12-16. Faith is essential in order to the keeping of the law of God; for “without faith it is impossible to please Him.” And “whatsoever is not of faith is sin.” Hebrews 11:6; Romans 14:23. By the first angel, men are called upon to “fear God, and give glory to Him” and to worship Him as the Creator of the heavens and the earth. In order to do this, they must obey His law. Says the wise man: “Fear God, and keep His commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.” Ecclesiastes 12:13. Without obedience to His commandments no worship can be pleasing to God. “This is the love of God, that we keep His commandments.” “He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.” 1 John 5:3; Proverbs 28:9. The duty to worship God is based upon the fact that He is the Creator and that to Him all other beings owe their existence. And wherever, in the Bible, His claim to reverence and worship, above the gods of the heathen, is presented, there is cited the evidence of His creative power. “All the gods of the nations are idols: but the Lord made the heavens.” Psalm 96:5. “To whom then will ye liken Me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One. Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things.” “Thus saith the Lord that created the heavens; God Himself that formed the earth and made it: . . . I am the Lord; and there is none else.” Isaiah 40:25, 26; 45:18. Says the psalmist: “Know ye that the Lord He is God: it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves.” “O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.” Psalms 100:3; 95:6. And the holy beings who worship God in heaven state, as the reason why their homage is due to Him: “Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for Thou has created all things.” Revelation 4:11. In Revelation 14, men are called upon to worship the Creator; and the prophecy brings to view a class that, as the result of the threefold message, are keeping the commandments of God. One of these commandments points directly to God as the Creator. The fourth precept declares: “The seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: . . . for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.” Exodus 20:10, 11. Concerning the Sabbath, the Lord says, further, that it is “a sign, . . . that ye may know that I am the Lord your God.” Ezekiel 20:20. And the reason given is: For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.” Exodus 31:17. “The importance of the Sabbath as the memorial of creation is that is keeps ever present the true reason why worship is due to God”—because He is the Creator, and we are His creatures. “The Sabbath therefore lies at the very foundation of divine worship, for it teaches this great truth in the most impressive manner, and no other institution does this. The true ground of divine worship, not of that on the seventh day merely, but of all worship, is found in the distinction between the Creator and His creatures. This great fact can never become obsolete, and must never be forgotten.”—J. N. Andrews, History of the Sabbath, chapter 27. It was to keep this truth ever before the minds of men, that God instituted the Sabbath in Eden; and so long as the fact that He is our Creator continues to be a reason why we should worship Him, so long as the Sabbath will continue as its sign and memorial. Had the Sabbath been universally kept, man’s thoughts and affections would have been led to the Creator as the object of reverence and worship, and there would never have been an idolater, an atheist, or an infidel. The keeping of the Sabbath is a sign of loyalty to the true God, “Him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.” It follows that the message which commands men to worship God and keep His commandments will especially call upon them to keep the fourth commandment. In contrast to those who keep the commandments of God and have the faith of Jesus, the third angle points to another class, against whose errors a solemn and fearful warning is uttered: “If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God.” Revelation 14:9, 10. A correct interpretation of the symbols employed is necessary to an understanding of this message. What is represented by the beast, the image, the mark? The line of prophecy in which these symbols are found begins with Revelation 12, with the dragon that sought to destroy Christ at His birth. The dragon is said to be Satan (Revelation 12:9); he it was that moved upon Herod to put the Saviour to death. But the chief agent of Satan in making war upon Christ and His people during the first centuries of the Christian Era was the Roman Empire, in which paganism was the prevailing religion. Thus while the dragon, primarily, represents Satan, it is, in a secondary sense, a symbol of pagan Rome. In chapter 13 (verses 1-10) is described another beast, “like unto a leopard,” to which the dragon gave “his power, and his seat, and great authority.” This symbol, as most Protestants have believed, represents the papacy, which succeeded to the power and seat and authority once held by the ancient Roman empire. Of the leopardlike beast it is declared: “There was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies. . . .And he opened his mouth in blaspheme His name, and His tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.” This prophecy, which is nearly identical with the description of the little horn of Daniel 7, unquestionably points to the papacy. “Power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. “And, says the prophet, “I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death.” And again: “He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword.” The forty and two months are the same as the “time and times and the dividing of them,” three years and a half, or 1260 days, of Daniel 7—the time during which the papal power was to oppress God’s people. This period, as stated in preceding chapters, began with the supremacy of the papacy, A.D. 538, and terminated In 1798. At that time the pope was made captive by the French army, the papal power received its deadly wound, and the predition was fulfilled, “He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity.” At this point another symbol is introduced. Says the prophet: “I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb.” Verse II. Both the appearance of this beast and the manner of its rise indicate that the nation which it represents is unlike those presented under the preceding symbols. The great kingdoms that have ruled the world were presented to the prophet Daniel as beasts of prey, rising when “the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.” Daniel 7:2. In Revelation 17 an angel explained that waters represent “peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.” Revelation 17:15. Winds are a symbol of strife. The four winds of heaven striving upon the great sea represent the terrible scenes of conquest and revolution by which kingdoms have attained to power. But the beast with lamblike horns was seen “coming up out of the earth.” Instead of overthrowing other powers to establish itself, the nation thus represented must arise in territory previously unoccupied and grow up gradually and peacefully. It could not, then, arise among the crowded and struggling nationalities of the Old World—that turbulent sea of “peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.” It must be sought in the Western Continent. What nation of the New World was in 1798 rising into power, giving promise of strength and greatness, and attracting the attention of the world? The application of the symbol admits of no question. One nation, and only one, meets the specifications of this prophecy; it points unmistakably to the United States of America. Again and again the thought, almost the exact words, of the sacred writer has been unconsciously employed by the orator and the historian in describing the rise and growth of this nation. The beast was seen “coming up out of the earth;” and, according to the translators, the word here rendered “coming up” literally signifies “to grow or spring up as a plant.” And, as we have seen, the nation must arise in territory previously unoccupied. A prominent writer, describing the rise of the United States, speaks of “the mystery of her coming forth from vacancy,” and says: “Like a silent seed we grew into an empire.”—G.A. Townsend, The New World Compared with the old, page 462. A European journal in 1850 spoke of the United States as a wonderful empire, which was “emerging,” and “amid the silence of the earth daily adding to its power and pride.”—The Dublin Nation. Edward Everett, in an oration on the Pilgrim founders of this nation, said: “Did they look for a retired spot, inoffensive for its obscurity, and safe in its remoteness, where the little church of Leyden might enjoy the freedom of conscience? Behold the mighty regions over which, in peaceful conquest, . . . they have borne the banners of the cross!”—Speech delivered at Plymouth, Massachusetts, Dec. 22, 1824, page 11. “And he had two horns like a lamb.” The lamblike horns indicate youth, innocence, and gentleness, fitly representing the character of the United States when presented to the prophet as “coming up” in 1798. Among the Christian exiles who first fled to America and sought an asylum from royal oppression and priestly intolerance were many who determined to establish a government upon the broad foundation of civil and religious liberty. Their views found place in the Declaration of Independence, which sets forth the great truth that “all men are created equal” and endowed with the inalienable right to “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” And the Constitution guarantees to the people the right of self-government, providing that representatives elected by the popular vote shall enact and administer the laws. Freedom of religious faith was also granted, every man being permitted to worship God according to the dictates of his conscience. Republicanism and Protestantism became the fundamental principles of the nation. These principles are the secret of its power and prosperity. The oppressed and downtrodden throughout Christendom have turned to this land with interest and hope. Millions have sought its shores, and the United States has risen to a place among the most powerful nations of the earth. But the beast with lamblike horns “spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed; . . . saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did PAID ADVERTISEMENT 4A—Clearwater Tribune – Orofino, ID – AUGUST 16, 2012 live.” Revelation 13:11-14. The lamblike horns and dragon voice of the symbol point to a striking contradiction between the professions and the practice of the nation thus represented. The “speaking” of the nation is the action of its legislative and judicial authorities. By such action it will give the lie to those liberal and peaceful principles which it has put forth as the foundation of its policy. The prediction that it will speak “as a dragon” and exercise “all the power of the first beast” plainly foretells a development of the spirit of intolerance and persecution that was manifested by the nations represented by the dragon and the leopardlike beast. And the statement that the beast with two horns “causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast” indicates that the authority of this nation is to be exercised in enforcing some observance which shall be an act of homage to the papacy. Such action would be directly contrary to the principles of this government, to the genus of its free institutions, to the direct and solemn avowals of the Declaration of Independence, and to the Constitution. The founders of the nation wisely sought to guard against the employment of secular power on the part of the church, with its inevitable result—intolerance and persecution. The Constitution provides that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,” and that “no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office of public trust under the United States.” Only in flagrant violation of these safeguards to the nation’s liberty, can any religious observance be enforced by civil authority. But the inconsistency of such action is no greater than is represented in the symbol. It is the beast with lamblike horns—in profession pure, gentle, and harmless—that speaks as a dragon. “Saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast.” Here is clearly presented a form of government in which the legislative power rests with the people, a most striking evidence that the United States is the nation denoted in the prophecy. But what is the “image to the beast” and how is it to be formed? The image is made by the two-horned beast, and is called an image to the beast. It is also called an image of the beast. Then to learn what the image is like and how it is to be formed we must study the characteristics of the beast itself—the papacy. When the early church became corrupted by departing from the simplicity of the gospel and accepting heathen rites and customs, she lost the Spirit and power of God; and in order to control the consciences of the people, she sought the support of the secular power. The result was the papacy, a church that controlled the power of the state and employed it to further her own ends, especially for the punishment of “heresy.” In order for the United States to form an image of the beast, the religious power must so control the civil government that the authority of the state will also be employed by the church to accomplish her own ends. Whenever the church has obtained secular power, she has employed it to punish dissent from her doctrines. Protestant churches that have followed in the steps of Rome by forming alliance with worldly powers have manifested a similar desire to restrict liberty of conscience. An example of this is given in the long-continued persecution of dissenters by the Church of England. During the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, thousands of non-conformist ministers were forced to flee from their churches, and many, both of pastors and people, were subjected to fine, imprisonment, torture, and martyrdom. It was apostasy that led the early church to seek the aid of the civil government, and this prepared the way for the development of the papacy—the beast. Said Paul “There shall come a falling away, . . . and that man of sin be revealed.” 2 Thessalonians 2:3. So apostasy in the church will prepare the way for the image to the beast. The Bible declares that before the coming of the Lord there will exist a state of religious declension similar to that in the first centuries. “In the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof.” 2 Timothy 3:1-5. “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils.” 1 Timothy 4:1. Satan will work “with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness.” And all that “received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved,” will be left to accept “strong delusion, that they should believe a lie.” 2 Thessalonians 2:9-11. When this state of ungodliness shall be reached, the same results will follow as in the first centuries. The wide diversity of belief in the Protestant churches is regarded by many as decisive proof that no effort to secure a forced uniformity can ever be made. But there has been for years, in churches of the Protestant faith, a strong and growing sentiment in favor of a union based upon common points of doctrine. To secure such a union, the discussion of subjects upon which all were not agreed—however important they might be from a Bible standpoint—might be necessarily waived. Charles Beecher, in a sermon in the year 1846, declared that the ministry of “the evangelical Protestant denominations” is “not only formed all the way up under a tremendous pressure of merely human fear, but they live, and move, and breathe in a state of things radically corrupt, and appealing every hour to every baser element of their nature to hush up the truth, and bow the knee to the power of apostasy. Was not this the way things went with Rome? Are we not living her life over again? And what do we see just ahead? Another general council! A world’s convention! Evangelical alliance, and universal creed!”—Sermon on “The Bible a Sufficient Creed,” delivered at Fort Wayne, Indiana, Feb. 22, 1846. When this shall be gained, then, in the effort to secure complete uniformity, it will be only a step to the resort to force. When the leading churches of the United States, uniting upon such points of doctrine as are held by them in common, shall influence the state to enforce their decrees and to sustain their institutions, then Protestant America will have formed an image of the Roman hierarchy, and the infliction of civil penalties upon dissenters will inevitably result. The beast with two horns “causeth [commands] all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in the foreheads: and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Revelation 13:16, 17. The third angel’s warning is: “If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, the same shall drink the wine of the wrath of God.” “The beast” mentioned in this message, whose worship is enforced by the two-horned beast, is the first, or leopardlike beast of Revelation 13—the papacy. The “image to the beast” represents that form of apostate Protestantism which will be developed when the Protestant churches shall seek the aid of the civil power for the enforcement of their dogmas. The “mark of the beast” still remains to be defined. After the warning against the worship of the beast and his image the prophecy declares: “Here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.” Since those who keep God’s commandments are thus placed in contrast with those that worship the beast and his image and receive his mark, it follows that the keeping of God’s law, on the one hand, and its violation, on the other, will make the distinction between the worshipers of God and the worshipers of the beast. The special characteristics of the beast, and therefore his image, is the breaking of God’s commandments. Says Daniel, of the little horn, the papacy: “He shall think to change times and the law.” Daneil 7:25, R.V. And Paul styled the same power the “man of sin,” who was to exalt himself above God. One prophecy is a complement of the other. Only by changing God’s law could the papacy exalt itself above God; whoever should understandingly keep the law as thus changed would be giving supreme honor to that power by which the change was made. Such an act of obedience to papal laws would be a mark of allegiance to the pope in the place of God. The papacy has attempted to change the law of God. The second commandment, forbidding image worship, has been dropped from the law, and the fourth commandment has been so changed as to authorize the observance of the first instead of the seventh day as the Sabbath. But papists urge, as a reason for omitting the second commandment, that it is unnecessary, being included in the first, and that they are giving the law exactly as God designed it to be understood. This cannot be the change foretold by the prophet. An intentional, deliberate change is presented. “He shall think to change the times and the law.” The change in the fourth commandment exactly fulfills the prophecy. For this the only authority claimed is that of the church. Here the papal power openly sets itself above God. While the worshipers of God will be especially distinguished by their regard for the fourth commandment,—since this is the sign of His creative power and the witness to His claim upon man’s reverence and homage,—the worshipers of the beast will be distinguished by their efforts to tear down the Creator’s memorial, to exalt the institution of Rome. It was in behalf of the Sunday that popery first asserted its arrogant claims; and its first resort to the power of the state was to compel the observance of Sunday as “the Lord’s day.” But the Bible points to the seventh day, and not to the first, as the Lord’s day. Said Christ: “The Son of man is Lord also of the Sabbath.” The fourth commandment declares: “The seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord.” And by the prophet Isaiah the Lord designates it: “My holy day.” Mark 2:28; Isaiah 58:13. The claim so often put forth that Christ changed the Sabbath is disproved by his own words. In His Sermon at the Mount He said: “Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven,” Matthew 5:17-19. It is a fact generally admitted by Protestants that the Scriptures give no authority for the change of the Sabbath. This is plainly stated in publications issued by the American Tract Society and the American Sunday School Union. One of these works acknowledges “the complete silence of the New Testament so far as any explicit command for the Sabbath [Sunday, the first day of the week] or definite rules for its observance are concerned.”—George Elliott, The Abiding Sabbath, page 184. Another says: “Up to the time of Christ’s death, no change had been made in the day;” and, “so far as the record shows, they [the apostles] did not . . . give any explicit command enjoining the abandonment of the seventh-day Sabbath, and its observance of the first day of the week.”—A.E. Waffle, The Lord’s Day, pages 186-188. Roman Catholics acknowledge that the change of the Sabbath was made by their church, and declare that Protestants by observing the Sunday are recognizing her power. In the Catholic Catechism of Christian Religion, in answer to a question as to the day to be observed in obedience to the fourth commandment, this statement is made: “During the old law, Saturday was the day sanctified, but the church, instructed by Jesus Christ, and directed by the spirit of God, has substituted Sunday for Saturday; so now we sanctify the first, not the seventh day. Sunday means, and now is, the day of the Lord.” As the sign of the authority of the Catholic Church, papist writers cite “the very act of changing the Sabbath into Sunday, which Protestants allow of; . . . because by keeping Sunday, they acknowledge the church’s power to ordain feasts, and to command them under sun.”—Henry Tuberville, An Abridgement of the Christian Doctrine, page 58. What then is the change of the Sabbath, but the sign, or mark, of the authority of the Roman Church—“the mark of the beast”? The Roman Church has not relinquished her claim to supremacy; and when the world and the Protestant churches accept a sabbath of her creating, while they reject the Bible Sabbath, they virtually admit this assumption. They may claim the authority of tradition and of the Fathers for the change; but in so doing they ignore the very principle which separates them from Rome—that “the Bible, and the Bible only, is the religion of Protestants.” The papist can see that they are deceiving themselves, willingly closing their eyes to the facts in the case. As the movement for Sunday enforcement gains favor, he rejoices, feeling assured that it will eventually bring the whole Protestant world under the banner of Rome. Romanists declare that “the observance of Sunday by the Protestants is an homage they pay, in spite of themselves, to the authority of the [Catholic] Church.”—Mgr. Segur, Plain Talk About the Protestantism of Today, page 213. The enforcement of Sundaykeeping on the part of Protestant churches is an enforcement of the worship of the papacy—of the beast. Those who, understanding the claims of the fourth commandment, choose to observe the false instead of the true Sabbath are thereby paying homage to that power by which alone it is commanded. But in the very act of enforcing a religious duty by secular power, the churches would themselves form an image to the beast; hence the enforcement of Sundaykeeping in the United States would be an enforcement of the worship of the beast and his image. But Christians of past generations observed the Sunday, supposing that in so doing they were keeping the Bible Sabbath; and there are now true Christians in every church, not excepting the Roman Catholic communion, who honestly believe that Sunday is the Sabbath of divine appointment. God accepts their sincerity of purpose and their integrity before him. But when Sunday observance shall be enforced by law, and the world shall be enlightened concerning the obligation of the true Sabbath, then whoever shall transgress the command of God, to obey a precept which has no higher authority than that of Rome, will thereby honor popery above God. He is paying homage to Rome and to the power which enforces the institution ordained by Rome. He is worshipping the beast and his image. As men then reject the institution which God has declared to be the sign of His authority, and honor in its stead that which Rome has chosen as the token of her supremacy, they will thereby accept the sign of allegiance to Rome—“the mark of the beast.” And it is not until the issue is thus plainly set before the people, and they are brought to choose between the commandments of God and the commandments of men, that those who continue in transgression will receive “the mark of the beast.” The most fearful threatening ever addressed to mortals is contained in the third angel’s message. That must be a terrible sin which calls down the wrath of God unmingled with mercy. Men are not to be left in darkness concerning this important matter; the warning against this sin is to be given to the world before the visitation of God’s judgments, that all may know why they are to be inflicted, and have opportunity to escape them. Prophecy declares that the first angel would make his announcement to “every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people.” The warning of the third angel, which forms a part of the same threefold message, is to be no less widespread. It is represented in the prophecy as being proclaimed with a loud voice, by an angel flying in the midst of heaven; and it will command the attention of the world. In the issue of the contest all Christendom will be divided into two great classes—those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus, and those who worship the beast and his image and receive his mark. Although church and state will unite their power to compel, “all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond” (Revelation 13:16), to receive “the mark of the beast,” yet the people of God will not receive it. The prophet of Patmos beholds “them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God” and singing the song of Moses and the Lamb.

PAID ADVERTISEMENT AUGUST 16, 2012 – Orofino, ID – Clearwater Tribune—5A Fraser news.... By Norma Brand Clarabell Brown’s 90th birthday party was held at the Fraser Community Center on Saturday, Aug. 11. The weather cooperated with sunny skies and a nice breeze. Our temperature remained in the mid-80 degree range. Tables were arranged inside the center as well as in the shade on the north side of the building. Clarabell’s sons, Robert and Neil, and their families traveled many miles to attend this special celebration. Name tags were a big help in identifying everyone, especially for the many friends that were in attendance that weren’t familiar with the grandchildren and their families. Donna and Danny’s son Kevin, his wife Katy, and the twins Spencer and Natalie came from Kelso, WA. Brad and his wife Debbie came from the Pullman area. The week before the birthday party Danette and her daughters Grace and Lydia drove to the farm from Nampa. Cory and Derek’s families live here in Fraser which made it easy for the grandchildren to get reacquainted while they were at the farm. A story board was on display with many pictures depicting the events of her life. Especially charming were the photos that were taken in 1922 when she was a baby and another one when she was two years old. She was sitting on a chair with her brothers, Claud and Harry, and her sister, Marie, standing beside her. They looked like they were taken in a photography studio, a real feat for her parents back in those early days in the Fraser Community. A potluck lunch took place at 12 noon; two birthday cakes and ice cream were served. Clarabell’s daughter-in-law, Donna Brown and her daughter Danette McIntosh prepared the meat, potatoes and several salads and friends brought side dishes to complete the meal. Needless to say, there was plenty of food to go around. Clarabell’s cousin, Shirley Schoenek, sat down at the piano and played several songs while several of the great grandchildren gathered around her. Hanna Belle, Spencer, and Natalie Brown couldn’t resist helping Shirley as she played. Composer Scott Joplin probably wondered how all those extra notes became part of his music. Family and friends continued to visit as the afternoon sped by, and the great grandchildren had time to get acquainted. It was a very special day. Happy Birthday again Clarabell. Another birthday party was held at Donna and Danny’s home on Sunday, Aug. 12. Their grandchildren, Spencer and Natalie, turned four years old on Aug. 11. Their cousins joined them in the afternoon for a swim party and cake and ice cream. Friends of Kevin and Katy drove out from Lewiston to help them celebrate. The family returned to their home in Kelso on Tuesday. Brad Brown and his wife Debbie helped haul hay earlier this month. Then Brad returned to help with the wheat harvest which began on Aug. 7 in Fraser. Reggie Ball celebrated his birthday on Monday, Aug. 6. A very tasty stir fry was cooked up on Carl Thornton’s huge outdoor wok. This wok is heated by a special propane burner. Carl can tell you more about it if you are inter- ested. It was great fun to watch Reggie cook this meal. Vegetables were added after the chicken and hamburger were done. Peggy must have spent many hours slicing and dicing all the ingredients. The Kinney family brought potato salad, fresh baked rolls and homemade butter. The Brands supplied the greens for the salad and used fresh veggies from Peggy’s garden to finish it off. Reggie, there is nothing like being given the duty of outdoor chef and cooking your own birthday meal. It was very good, and the cherry and apple pies that Peggy baked were the perfect touch to the meal. The raspberry patch in the Brand’s garden has really produced berries this year. On Tuesday, Aug. 7, Donna Brown, her daughter Danette McIntosh, and her daughters Grace and Lydia did the final picking of the season. The girls had their own containers to pick in. When they tired of that chore they were introduced to April Eight, the llama, and Blackjack, the cat. They told their cousins all about their day and how much fun they had. Donna reported the berries were made into shortcake, lemonade and jam. Entries needed for the Wild Weippe Rodeo Parade Carolyn Lage is in need of more entries for the rodeo parade which will take place before the rodeo on Saturday, Aug. 18.

She will be happy to help you fill out your entry forms. Your efforts will be appreciated by everyone who comes to watch. See you there! Mike and Cindy Yantis enjoyed a visit from family members last week. The Brands visited with Mike and his friend, Jerry, on Tuesday morning after breakfast at the Ponderosa Restaurant in Orofino. Mike and Jerry were going bass fishing on Dworshak Reservoir after they left the restaurant. Did you have any luck, Mike? Fraser Park is a great place for any celebration. On Aug. 4 the wedding of Nicole Huddleston and Jacob Stephenson was held. Carolyn Lage reported it was a very special wedding. It had a western flair with red bandanas and sun flowers. The Fraser Community sends best wishes to the newlyweds. Borders/Kingen family reunion The Borders/Kingen seventh annual family reunion was held at Fraser Park on the weekend of Aug. 1012. Faye Leto reported the family arrived at the park on Friday afternoon. They had a spaghetti feed that night and played a game of Glow Stick Rebel. Saturday morning everyone enjoyed a breakfast of fruit and pastries, followed by more games of Squirrels on the Loose, Bubble Gum Relays and Chicken Poop Bingo. If you are interested on how to play any of these games call Faye at 208-435-4501. The evening meal was potluck; Uncle Boze was to furnish the meat. This he did in “high style”. He hired the High Country Inn for the job this year. Jo Moore catered a great BBQ of ribs, chicken and hotdogs. We bet this will be a meal that will be remembered for a long time.

Under “40 Years Ago,” Deputy Nick Albers thanked Roy Cochrell and his son for helping to change a tire on his patrol car that blew out while he was on his way to an accident. When Mary Cochrell and her daughterin-law Diane discussed it, they figured “the son” that was mentioned must have been Jason. He would have been 11 years old then and would have been still living at home. Marie Armitage is happy to be working full time again in the 4-H program for Clearwater County.

Happy Birthday greetings go out to Laine Harris on Aug. 23. Harry, Claud, Clarabell and Marie Judd EPA is way over the line! Dear Editor: Recently in Kansas the EPA took enforcement action against a feedlot for failure to store hay in a “pollutioncontainment zone.” Following the Kansas incident, ranchers in Billings, MT asked an EPA representative if hay had been declared a pollutant. The official answer: YES! The Environmental Protection Agency got caught using aerial drones to spy on farmers and ranchers in Nebraska and Iowa.Nebraska congressman challenged the agency. The EPA insisted they have authority to “surveil” (code word: spy on) the private property of farmers and ranchers because it is a cost effective means to protect people and the environment from violations of the Clean Water Act. The EPA is making its own rules under the pretext of protecting the environment.The agency can determine a mud puddle to be a “wetland.” It can issue onerous fines against property owners when there is no proven violation. EPA agents are not required to present a warrant before entering property.

Clearwater Compulsive Gardeners news By Red Arave The Clearwater Compulsive Gardeners traveled to the Fraser/Weippe area on Tuesday, where we toured some impressive gardens. Our first stop was to the home of Laura and Bob Mason, where we enjoyed their gracious hospitality and a lovely brunch outdoors on the deck. There were several bouquets of Laura’s flowers on the tables and hanging baskets in the most unique places. Bob’s vegetable garden was picture perfect, not a weed in sight! There were lots of questions asked and valuable information learned from these two gardeners. It was so peaceful everyone was reluctant to leave, but we finally gathered up and continued on to Colleen Fahy and Monte Vanderpol’s home. Colleen’s garden was a series of raised beds, narrow enough for the whole bed to be within easy reach. Each had an individual watering system and there were winding paths among them. All the plants were lush and green and showed no sign of our latest heat wave. Their grand log home sets back among the privacy of the pine trees. Colleen invited us inside and it was a whole other experience to see the many talents of this lady! Colleen is a recent new member and we are glad to have her. Our final stop was at Sherry and Larry Schlader’s home. The first magnificent sight is a patriotic red, white and blue container of petunias. Throughout her yard are several showy containers and hanging baskets across the front porch that were glorious with red geraniums and candle vines. They were all a continuous curtain of color and so pretty. Sherry’s backyard features her childhood playhouse, restored and incorporated into a corner of a new storage building. There was even a “tea party” going on with delicious treats and ice cold punch. What a delightful way to wind up the tour. Our garden club wishes to thank Laura and Bob, Colleen and Sherry for going all out to entertain us at their homes and in their lovely gardens. Club members enjoying the day were Barbara Brown, Anne Isbelle, Deb Walters, Sandy Goffinet, Shirley Johnson, Sharon Fitzgerald, Becky Peltz, Joyce Peltier, Rose Alene McArthur, Judy Sommers, Nancy Ann Stanfill, Peggy Ball, Gini Donnelly, Janet OCrowley, Mary Ann Dangman, Lorraine Elam and Red Arave. We have several new members and I encourage everyone to enter the fruits of their labor in the upcoming county fair. There will not be a meeting in September due to our participation in the Fair. Eva Jeanette Allen, 85, of Lewiston (and formerly of Pierce) passed away Tuesday Aug. 7, 2012 at Wedgewood Terrace after a brief, serious illness. She was the middle child born on Sept. 9, 1926 to Robert G. and Esther H. Dinnison at the family farm in Weippe. She attended Weippe Grammar School and Pierce High School graduating in 1944. Jeanette joined the Nurses’ Cadet Corp at Deaconess Hospital in Spokane and received her RN diploma in 1947. She worked in Washington, DC, Albuquerque, NM and Clarkston hospitals before marrying Claude Schrempp and moving to Palo Alto, CA. She continued nursing here, then Richland, WA, Grand Coulee and Rockwood Clinic as a nurse. This marriage brought forth her children, Claudia and Robert. She and Claude returned to Piece in 1956 and owned and operated the Pierce Market. This marriage ended in divorce. She returned to nursing at Clearwater Valley Hospital and worked at Jaype Mill until marrying Robert L. Allen in Pierce. They moved to a parcel of her parents’ Weippe homestead in 1978 and remained there until 2007 when health issues brought them to Lewiston. Jeanette was a hard worker, starting as a teenager delivering milk to Pierce residents before school and her work ethic continued until health issues slowed her. One of her last words was “please clean this room up!” She and Bob were good community people – always there to help with any project. She missed her Pierce and Weippe friends dearly Clearwater County Fair dog show set for Aug. 18 Per Jeanette’s request, cremation has taken place and that she wanted no service and no tears! Her ashes are to be buried in the Weippe Cemetery by her family at a later date. She requested any memorials be made to the Weippe Cemetery, 894 Dairy Rd., Weippe, ID 83553, or charity of your choice. Christian Church news herself. Way to go Alyssa!

It is strictly for fun. Tough round A man comes home after a terrible round of golf, his worst ever. He plops down on the couch in front of the television, and tells his wife, “Get me a beer before it starts.” The wife sighs and gets him a beer. Fifteen minutes later, he says, “Get me another beer before it starts.” She looks cross, but fetches another beer and slams it down next to him. He finishes that beer and a few minutes later says, “Quick, get me another beer, it’s going to start any minute.” The wife is furious. She yells at him “You’ve been out golfing all day! Is that all you’re going to do tonight-drink beer and sit in front of that TV? You’re nothing but a lazy, drunken, fat slob, and furthermore...” The man sighs and says, “It’s started…” Bald Mountain workday Aug. 18 Allen Rowan in front of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Ducky Derby Winners: 1st: Mary Anne Marko; 2nd: Hilda Matthews; 3rd: Hattie Hodges; 4th: Steve Bonner While gathering, preparing and organizing the reams of paperwork needed to form the non-profit incorporation which would be known as OCS Drop-In Center, Inc., many hours went into the creation of its Mission Statement, Vision Statement, Bylaws and 12-Concepts for Non-Profit Service. Jan. 5, 2011 OCS was incorporated and on June 20, 2011 an information and support meeting was held to establish a list of the folks who would likely be selected to sit on the Board of Directors for the early phases of this huge project. Of course, Barb Wityczak attended this meeting. She looked over all the paperwork, held up the stack of papers which were the Bylaws for OCS and said, “These will probably come in handy, but we need a building.” On June 21, 2011 keys were obtained to a building on Johnson Avenue and the board went to work. The first official board meeting was held in this building with Barb present, of course. In fact, she came to the meeting armed with the new name for the Drop-In Center, along with its logo and letterhead design. How could we say “Nay”? It was an awesome name and design! The board also used this meeting to select what positions each one on the board would fill. Of course, Barb said, “I’ll do promotion because that’s what I do.” Barb had taken on the position before things even got started and never stopped thereafter. The OCS board signed the lease on July 14, 2011. As one of only two members on the board who had had any previous board experience, Barb tirelessly led the group through many rough spots as they struggled to learn what being a board member means to an organization. Over the months OCS faced many seeming roadblocks; however, Barb didn’t seem to have the word “can’t” in her vocabulary. If there was something that needed to be done or problem which needed a resolution, Barb searched until she was successful in meeting that need.

Idaho 4-H is celebrating 100 years of making leaders for tomorrow while serving today. Please join us on Wednesday, Aug. 22 in recognizing the birth of Idaho 4-H. The birth of Idaho 4-H came through the organization of a club by Lemhi County school superintendent Elizabeth (Bessie) McDonald Reed in 1912. Members’ projects along with local produce were displayed resulting in the launch of Lemhi County’s first fair. The 4-H name became widely adopted throughout the state in the 1920s. From the original organization of a club in Lemhi County, 4-H in Idaho has grown to investing in youth through volunteer and extension involvement in all forty-two counties in Idaho. In 2010-2011, there were 33,869 active 4-H participants statewide and 3,825 volunteers in the State of Idaho. In Clifton Anderson’s book, “History of the College of Agriculture at the University of Idaho,” some of the early accomplishments were: In 1916, Thelma Later, 13, Madison County, canned more than 500 quarts of fruits and vegetables. Elwin Schever, 16, Latah County, made $76.95 profit from his gar- den. In 1918, Lloyd Gilson and Walter Remer, club boys of Nez Perce County did poorly in school until they became interested in 4-H club work. Not only did they become honor students, they also figured out how to secure three acres to continue their club work after their 1st year. In 1948, 4-H’s International Farm Youth Exchange (IFYE) began. Today, Idaho participates with Argentina, Australia, Finland, Japan, and other countries in hosting delegates from those countries as well as sending Idaho youth as delegates for life changing experiences.This year we have four youth currently in Japan for the summer. In 1957, with the launch of the Russian Sputnik, 4H became invested in a focus on science. While there are still projects in livestock and family consumer sciences, the science and technology programs (such as robotics) is the fastest growing program area 4-H offers today. A 2003 statewide survey found that youth who participate in 4-H are more involved as leaders in their school and community, are more likely to help others, and are less likely to be involved in risky behaviors, such as drinking alcohol, use illegal drugs, smoke, or vandalize personal property for fun. The Tuft University study, which was conducted nationwide to a diverse audience of adolescents found that youth in 4-H: • Have higher educational achievement and motivation for future education • Are more civically active and make more civic contributions to their communities • Are 3.4 times more likely to delay sexual intercourse by Grade 12 • Have shown to have had significantly lower drug, alcohol and cigarette use than their peers • Are 2.3 times more likely to exercise and be physically active • Report better grades, higher levels of academic competence, and an elevated level of engagement at school • Are nearly two times more likely to plan to go to college August 22, 2012 has been designated as Idaho 4-H Day. Members, volunteers, and alumni are being invited to wear their 4-H tshirt or celebratory green that day as the 100th birthday will be recognized at the Lemhi County Fair. Watch for the ongoing celebration activities in your community and at fairs to join in on Idaho 4-H 100th birthday.

Over the next few months Barb still did not miss board meetings. She was always at her place in the middle of the table on speaker phone with her ideas and other input. Her strength and stamina to do what she could to help the Drop-In Center was phenomenal. “We at OCS Drop-In Center will miss our board member, Barb, but we will miss her friendship more. There was never a time when Barb didn’t have the time or patience to listen and help anyone who crossed her path. She seemed on the look-out for folks in need so she could help them in some way. And, of course, that was what she did that made her who she was,” said the board. On Saturday, Aug. 4, OCS Drop-In Center, Inc. received its final letter from IRS officially deeming it a non-profit tax-exempt 501(c) (3) Public Charity. “On Sunday, Aug. 5, Barb left us, stronger and better prepared for what is to come from here. We love you and thank you, Barb, for everything…from all the folks at the OCS Drop-In Center.” County Extension Agent, will be the speaker at the Clearwater Human Needs Council meeting noon Tuesday, Aug. 21, at the Krystal Café.

In July, Nancy Butler explained the programs of the Adult Learning Center that is located upstairs in Room 205 of the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) building at 330 Michigan Ave. in Orofino. The Adult Learning Center is a non-profit group of volunteers that helps those who are at least 16 years old and out of public school to improve their skills in reading, writing, math, English as a second language and computers. They also offer pre-GED and financial literacy tutoring. Tutors work one-on-one with individual students to help them with basic skills in reading, writing, math, English as a second language and financial literacy.

In addition we built a budget without assurance that the Craig/Wyden “timber money” which Western States have relied upon for years would be renewed. In July we received notice that there would be Federal timber funds, but at a level approximately $100,000 less than the prior year. In addition the district lost 45 students over the past year. State funds are based on students so funding from the state will be reduced. Local taxpayers were generous and passed our operating levy of $1.94 million, the same level as the 2011-12 fiscal year. The budget for 2012-13 was written to “right size” the district based on fewer students and funding cuts. The majority of the cuts to teaching staff were made via retirements and resignations. Several Instructional Aides were cut, but we are currently working to reallocate funds to rehire some of those lost positions. It is our intent that no student’s special needs will be neglected. Putting money into facilities maintenance was a major concern. As you will read in the building reports several projects are underway. Our goal is to spend our money locally and most of the maintenance work is being performed by local contractors and companies. Dr. Kerrie Raines joins the district as our new Special Education Director. Dr. Raines served as a vice-principal, Federal Programs Officer, and Special Education Director in Glenn’s Ferry for the past couple of years. Ben Jenkins will assume the duties of Lon Blades, who retired, as Transportation Director. Ben will continue as the head mechanic along with the Director’s position. Cavendish School Teacher Jenine Nord will start school with a logging theme this year, preparing for the county fair. Students will do research on logging the first couple of weeks of school. Jenine By Pam Jones Kiwanis Club of Orofino met Tuesday, Aug. 14 at the Ponderosa. The meeting was called to order by Vicki Schneider. The prayer was given by Amy Hansford and the pledge was given by Doug Crockett. A moment of silence was given for the fallen firefighter this week and for the safety of the other firefighters who are risking their lives. There were nine members and one guest at today’s meeting. A few of our members were involved with the Blood Drive and were unable to attend. Guest speaker was Bob Vian. Danelle Pedersen’s name was drawn for the free lunch. Guy Jurgens became a member of Kiwanis on Aug. 13, 2002. The annual corn feed was held Aug. 14 at Kiwanis Park. Sign-ups for the Fun Run which will be Sept. 8 are coming in slowly. Anyone interested in participating or volunteering as a helper may contact Lyn Anderson at 476-5908. Bob Vian, Superintendent for Joint School District #171, spoke to us today. He was the Principal at Timberline Schools for the 2011-2012 school year. During that time he led THS to become a fourstar school and TES to a five-star school. He became Superintendent on July 1. This year there will be all new administrative staff, except for Bob Alverson, who is in his second year as the Principal at Orofino High School. Bob spoke to us about the improvements that are taking place at the schools and the need for additional improvements. His future goals are to bring the Oro- plans to ask local loggers to speak to the students. Students will take a field trip to the Dam Visitor Center and the Orofino Museum on Aug. 28 to learn about logging. The furnace was replaced at Cavendish. Peck Mindy Pollock will have the Peck students working on projects for the Clearwater Fair as well. The logging theme of the fair will dictate projects. Timberline School New Principal Shaun Ball has moved to Pierce from Bonner’s Ferry. He reported that the one portable which was purchased has been moved from the east side of the school. The portable is sited next to the current Timberline Elementary building. TES will now have six classrooms for the seven K-6 grades. No elementary students will have classes in the high school this year. The second portable was returned to the vendor. Timberline High School will have one new teacher this year; Joe Lawrence replaces Shannon Poppe, long time School District #171 teacher who moved to Wyoming. Mr. Lawrence will teach Language Arts. Joe attended high school in Lewiston, did his student teaching in Lewiston, and substituted there last year. The new sewer system is nearing completion. The nearly $300,000 project is being built by local contractor Riverview Construction. The new system will replace a system that used two sewage ponds that were beyond their life span. The majority of funds for the project has come from the districts $232,784 Building Fund (money from property which the district has sold, we are currently receiving $250 per month due to the sale of Weippe Elementary on a contract) which will be depleted. The balance will come from Federal forest funds. Orofino Elementary New Principal Shelly Brooks has joined our staff from Priest River. Mrs. Brooks has six years of experience as a high school principal in Priest River and Kellogg. Prior to becoming a principal she served in several administrative positions and as a Special Education Teacher. Diedre Jenkins will become a fulltime fourth grade teacher. Lindsay Waggener was hired to fill Mrs Jenkins’ half time position. Jennifer Jyler will be the Special Education teacher at OES. Mrs. Brooks and head custodian Justin Howard have been overseeing several building upgrades at OES. The portable classrooms are being removed from the school grounds. Avista has removed several power poles and upgraded insulation on the overhead wires near the school. Two restrooms are being remodeled due to floor joist dry rot and generally poor condition. Two classrooms, where odor problems have persisted for the past couple of years, were stripped to subfloor level. New floors and carpets have been installed to make the classrooms ready for students and staff for the new school year. Orofino High School Principal Robert Alverson is the “old timer” in the district administration. He will begin his second year as principal at OHS. Doug South, hired from Marsing High School, will be the new Vice Principal. Mr. South will also serve as Activities Director. Doug will handle all aspects of school administration including teacher supervision, student discipline, and student safety. Michael Tetwiller has been hired to teach math at OHS. Mr. Tetwiller replaces retired social studies teacher Bo Cummings. Space has been adjusted to make room for the seventh grade move to OHS. Seventh grade lockers and a computer classroom used by the seventh graders were moved from OES. OHS has received a wiring upgrade to allow all computer labs to operate simultaneously, something that the building wiring could not handle in the past. New rain gutters have been ordered for the front of the building. Old worn and torn carpet is being replaced in three classrooms by local contractors. The carpet was a safety hazard as students and staff tripped on the seams that had four inch gaps of missing carpet. fino schools to be at least four-star schools. The Happy Cup was passed and everyone was happy about something. Next week’s program will be Sondra Annis who will talk to us about family history/genealogy.

Kalie opened with three songs that she sang beautifully. Grasshopper Raceway Weippe Fire had the pleasure of going out to the Grasshopper Raceway on Sunday and watching the dirt bike races. It was a very warm day but they had many entries in the races. Ralph Donaldson and his wife Patricia made this racetrack to give people in our area something fun to enjoy. They plan on opening the track four days a week so people can come out and have fun. He hopes to have 4 wheeler races in the next 2-3 weeks. This is something great that the community can enjoy and come out and support. They also run a concession stand out there where you can eat some of the best hamburgers. Our community would like to let the Donaldson’s know how much we appreciate them for bringing something new to the Hilltop.

Orofino LCSC Outreach Center: Reflections, appreciation, and planning As we look toward a new school year, the Orofino LCSC Outreach Center would like to thank the businesses and individuals who have supported LCSC in our endeavor to provide solid community programs for all ages. But first, a little about those programs… Orofino 2012 Kids’ College The Orofino Kids’ College debuted in July in the form of a week-long program offered to Clearwater County youth between the ages of 6-12, featuring classes focused in art, environmental science, martial arts, forensic science, entrepreneurship, and culinary arts. Through the donation of time and money, the outreach center was able to meet operational expenses while also providing a robust platform for a youth program scholarship fund. Thank you to the following people and businesses who helped make the Kids’ College a success: Sponsors Reggear Tree Farms, Camas Financial Services, LLC, Walrath Insurance, When-to-Fight, LLC, ASE Signs, Orofino High School and the Custodial Staff. Volunteers Greener Clearwater County, Orofino Police Department, Sarah Johnson, Nez Perce Tribe Officer Mike Shores, Officer Monte Toombs, Ken Hengen, ManiYAC Teen Center, Kelly Cummins-Brumley, ManiYAC Teen Center, Nicole Duff, Gabii Butzman, James Bolling Personal Enrichment Classes The outreach center seeks to enrich the lives of individuals through distinctive service and exceptional programs. To this end, we provide personal enrichment classes, ranging from a variety of topics, such as computer, dance, art, cooking, youth workshops, fitness, day trips, business and more. Last year the center scheduled 47 classes and logged 338 registrations! Often we are challenged by a lack of resources, including ven- ues; however, some classes have not been affected by this limitation thanks to the contribution of two local businesses. The Best Western Lodge and management team has graciously hosted the LCSC water aerobics classes every Tuesday and Thursday since 2008, and the Konkolville Motel has been opening their pool to the summer swimming lessons since 2010. We are grateful to both of these businesses for providing a location where students can participate in activities that will improve their health and safety, and for contributing to a successful 2011-2012 Looking forward The outreach center is gearing up for another great year, with 15 classes planned for this fall! Highlights of our new classes include a dance program, art class, recreation, and technology.

As my friend and I walk along the dike at our City Park in the mornings we are quite often met by friends with whom we “pass the time of day.” Last week we enjoyed a part of a horse show which was just getting started. The wonderful part of this was we were fortunate to hear a solo rendition of “The Star Spangled Banner” sung by a lady with a beautiful voice! For some time we have enjoyed feeding and visiting the squirrels at the park but they have left for the summer because of all of the activity at the park. “Fun in the Woods” Last Friday I was the guest speaker at the Rotary Club meeting at the Ponderosa. My part of the program was to tell about the “good old days” working at PFI camps as a flunkey in 1942. I ran out of time. I had more to tell them but it is all in the book I wrote “Fun in the Woods”. I was very favorably impressed with the Rotary and the good things they do. As a thank you gift they gave me a very special pen. Inscribed on the pen are the words “The 4-Way Test of the things we think, say or do”. Thanks to Joe Davis for inviting me and taking me to the meeting. Thanks also to the Rotary for the nice dinner provided. Family gatherings A large family group gathered at Corrie Shriver’s home last Sunday. Her son Kenny of Big Lake, AK, her grandson Mathew and family from Ohio and Debbie Hebink of Spokane were out of town guests. I was also included in the get together and enjoyed visiting with Shrivers of all ages. Nellie Chase has also been entertaining out of town guests. Her sister, Rosie and husband Bob Barnsdale of Michigan and her daughter Pat and husband Lyman Larson of Boise have been house guests. They enjoyed a family picnic with other family members at Freeman Creek last Sunday. Pinochle Potluck pinochle parties have resumed at the Senior Center after a summer vacation.

Valley Visions donates money to local schools Valley Visions, a locally owned and operated gas station, would like to welcome students and staff back to school. It is exciting to see children in the community make their way to school in anticipation of what the new school year will bring. In an effort to help Orofino Elementary and Orofino Jr/Sr High School, Valley Visions will donate two cents for every gallon of fuel sold at their 1160 Michigan Avenue location (next to IGA). The fundraiser began July 3 and will continue for three months. The donation will be split evenly between the two Orofino schools and the money will go directly to the principals of each school to use as they see fit for the benefit of the students. Valley Visions would like to encourage motorists to take extra consideration of all students and remember safety while traveling, especially during the hours students are making their way to and from school.

This compares with the national average that has increased 5.4 cents per gallon in the last week to $3.67/g, according to gasoline price website IdahoGasPrices.com. Including the change in gas prices in Idaho during the past week, prices yesterday were 12.9 cents per gallon lower than the same day one year ago and are 0.7 cents per gallon higher than a month ago. The national average has in- creased 24.8 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 5.7 cents per gallon higher than this day one year ago. “The national average has spiked 25-cents per gallon just in the last month, thanks to an onslaught of refinery problems- mainly in the Great Lakes and California,” said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. “While these situations are temporary in nature, it goes to show this nations dependence on domestic refineries. While oil prices have gained in recent days, there is some light at the end of the tunnel for motorists: driving season will be over in less than a month and soon thereafter the EPA also relaxes gasoline mandates, meaning cheaper winter fuel,” DeHaan said. 8-16-12c London played host to the Summer Olympic games in 1908 and 1948. When it hosts again in 2012, the British capital city becomes the first city in history to host the Olympic games three times.

Clearwater County sees rise in percentage of college graduates By Bill Bishop and Roberto Gallardo Clearwater County has experienced a brain gain in the last 40 years, joining the rest of the country in what has been a massive increase in the number of adults who have earned college degrees. In 1970, 5.7 percent of those over 25 years of age had college degrees in Clearwater County. By 2010, 14.4 percent of adults here had completed college. The percentage of adults with college degrees in Clearwater County was less than the national average of 27.9 percent in 2010. The college-educated rate here was less than the Idaho average of 24.3 percent. The number of adults in the United States with college degrees has nearly tripled since 1970, when only 10.7 percent of adults had graduated from college. But the percentage of adults with degrees in rural counties, such as Clearwater County, while increasing, has generally fallen behind the proportion of college-educated residents in urban counties. The loss of young, welleducated residents has posed a long-standing difficulty for rural communities. “One of the problems that rural areas face is that in order to get a college education, young people often have to leave,” says Judith Stallmann, an economist at the University of Missouri. “Once you leave, that introduces you to other opportunities that you might not have seen had you not left.” The good news for rural America is that it has caught up in every other measure of education. In 1970, 7.8 percent of adults in rural counties had some education after high school, but less than a college degree. By 2010, 27.4 percent of rural adults had attained some post high school education without earning a college diploma. That level of education was close to the national average of 28.1 percent. In Clearwater County, 9.1 percent of adults had some college in 1970, rising to 28.3 percent in 2010. The Idaho average in 2010 was 35.1 percent. Clearwater County had 5,866 adults (those over 25 years of age) in 1970 and 6,691 adults in 2010. Overall, Stallmann says, the trends show that “rural people have responded to the demand for increased job skills by increasing their post secondary education.” Only 15.3 percent of the adult population in Clearwater County had failed to graduate from high school in 2010. Nationally 15 percent of adults had not completed high school; in Idaho, the rate was 11.8 percent. Mark Partridge, a rural economist at Ohio State University, says that regional differences in college graduation rates have increased in recent years. Partridge said his studies have found that rural counties and counties with small cities in the South and West didn’t fare as well as those in the Midwest and Northeast in attracting college graduates. Even though the Sunbelt has seen tremendous growth over the past few decades, the South’s rural counties haven’t kept up in terms of attracting adults with college degrees. But the problem of keep- ing college graduates in rural America is a national issue and one that is also enduring. Types of jobs Missouri economist Stallmann said this is a reflection of the kinds of jobs that are generally available in rural communities. If there are fewer jobs demanding college degrees in a community, there are likely to be fewer college graduates. “It’s a big deal in a lot of rural counties because you don’t see a lot of jobs that require a college education,” Stallmann said. Young people graduating from high school don’t see many jobs that demand a college diploma, so they don’t think about coming home once they leave for the university. There can be a “self-reinforcing cycle” in rural communities, Stallmann said — young people leave to gain higher education, they don’t come back after college because there aren’t jobs that demand such education, and their absence diminishes the chances that more of these kinds of jobs will be created. Nationally, rural counties and counties with small cities have caught up with urban counties in the percentage of adults who have some post high school education. Stallmann sees this as a sign that “there are perhaps more jobs in rural areas that require post secondary education but not college.” Both Stallmann and Partridge said the data on college education rates told them that rural communities should consider the kind of jobs being created locally. “Rural communities may need to think about the types of jobs being created,” Stallmann said. “There are some communities that are doing things like getting local businesses to put an emphasis on hiring local kids who got a college education.” “It really suggests that rural communities that aren’t thinking about making themselves attractive to educated people are really going to suffer,” Partridge said.

He passed away Saturday, Aug. 4, 2012, at the age of 83. Below are some of his recollections of growing up in Orofino in the 1930s. Also included is a little of his family history. I’ve been told numerous times that I need to write some of the things that might be interesting to my family. I’m not sure what that entails. My mother’s family is well documented in a booklet put together by Maudie. Dad’s father came from Sweden. He spoke Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Dutch, German, English and enough Nezperce to do business with the local Indians. His father was a machinist in the Chicago railroad yards. There were 11 children that came to America, one by one, when the family had enough money to bring them. Grandpa Lindgren was trained at the Elgin Watch Works, Elgin Illinois, as a “railroad jeweler.” Railroad jewelers were placed around the country to work on railroaders watches. He and Grandma Lindgren lived in Boone, Iowa where Dad and his sister, Helen, were born. About 1910 Grandpa and Dad came to Lewiston and Grandpa opened a shop there. Several years later, Grandpa filed for a homestead east of Orofino and they moved there and he opened a shop in Orofino. They built a house and a barn on the place which was covered with timber except for a couple of areas which served for pasture. Grandpa walked the 10 or 12 miles to work several times a week. Two of Grandpa’s brothers, Jalmer and Wilhelm, took up homesteads that abutted Grandpa’s property. There, land was more suitable to farming. Uncle Willie built a nice little house on his property. I don’t know much more about them except that a Seventh-day Adventist named Floyd Meckling told them he would see that they were properly buried. They left their ground to him. Much later in life Rosmarie, Karin, Mark and I lived there for a year while I logged. When WWI broke out Dad wanted to go in the army but Grandma and Grandpa wouldn’t give him permission. One day while he was working on the farm a deputy sheriff came and told him he was taking him to town. Dad wanted to know why and was told he had been drafted to go in the army. Turned out Grandma had received the draft notice and she burned it! No son of hers was going to war. Dad happily packed his things and took training at Moscow but the armistice was signed before he ever got out of training. While dad was still single, he worked for the telephone company putting up lines and hooking up the switchboard where he also learned some about electrical work. He was also a fireman in Coeur d’Alene and he told me that he was involved in a pool game when a man came in selling stock in Sunshine Mine. Dad said he wasn’t buying into some mining scheme - lost his money in the pool game. Sunshine Mine made millionaires out of a number of people. Sometime around 1920, Grandma opened a restaurant in Orofino. Mother and Aunt Helen worked for her and this is where Dad met Mother. They were married in 1926. He ran the light plant in Kooskia for a couple of years and then they built a “house?” in Orofino. It was shingled and had a rounded tar paper roof, two bedrooms with a curtain for a door, and one long room. The kitchen was separated from the living room by a wood burning kitchen stove. The toilet was in the attached woodshed. There was no bathtub. The picture of Fred and me on the pony was taken in a neighbor’s yard because mother was so ashamed of our house. Early in the 1930’s Dad lost his job at Oud’s Hardware and Furniture, where he worked mostly as an electrician. We went to live with Grandpa and Grandma Schwarz on what we called “The Ranch.” Emmette, George and Hazel were there, probably all in high school in Peck. My cousin Junior (Ralph Schwarz) was also there. His mother had died giving birth to a baby girl and he was living with his other grandmother in Portland in a rather bad situation. Aunt Lydia brought him to us shortly after I was born. I adored Junior and although he was five years older than I, he always treated me as an equal. There was no electricity and no bathroom. Evenings were spent listening to Hazel play the reed organ and Emmette play the violin, the guitar or banjo. We often sang along and the grownups got a great kick out of some of my mispronunciations. Junior had a shoe box with two spools attached to the side, which was our radio. He lied on the floor behind it and was the announcer while I worked the dials. Grandpa had dairy cows, pigs, chickens and several horses. They sold milk and cream to the dairy in Orofino. They took it to the railroad station down on the river in a Model T Ford pickup. The dirt road was very steep. Model Ts had a gravity system to feed gas to the engine. Sometimes people backed up hills to get gas to the engine. Emmette and George overcame this problem by attaching a tire valve to the gas cap. Grandpa was in charge of the tire pump and when the engine sputtered they would holler “pump Papa pump,” which forced gas to the engine. Hazel took me to gather eggs once and I decided I’d gather them whenever it came handy. This was bad because I was chasing the hens off their nests while they were laying eggs. One day, so they tell me, I came screaming out of the chicken coop with a Rock Island Red rooster with his claws grasping my hair and flapping his wings alongside my head. They got him off of me and asked me what happened and I told them that the rooster asked me if I wanted to fight and I said no, but he took me anyway. I think there’s a bit of the Garden of Eden in this experience: Grandma took us out to the orchard and told us we could take apples off any tree except this particular one. As soon as she was out of sight we started munching. They were not quite ripe crab apples and we got a real belly ache from them, much to her satisfaction. We spent at least one winter on the ranch. Then Dad got a job with a survey crew on the road which would follow the Clearwater River to Kamiah. We lived in Orofino after that. Sometimes (when there was an extra dime) Mother would walk me down to the railroad station and I would ride the train to the Peck depot, where someone would meet me and we would walk up the hill to the ranch. Mom, Dad and Freddy would come in the Model T and we would go home Sunday evening. Later, Oud’s Hardware hired Dad back. Bob Oud came to tell Dad and when he left, Mother cried. I think they were tears of joy because we would be a little better off. I started school in 1935 and later that fall we lost our house and property. The first thing the builder did was tear the house down. It was easily out of place in that neighborhood. We moved into a tiny house in an alley behind the Methodist Church. No bathtub. Dad’s sister, Aunt Helen and her husband, Jack Conard and children Louise, Ruth and Jackie lived next door. Later, Dwight (Bud) and Linda were born. We often played behind the church with them. One day as I was coming home from school Jumbo Dawson, Junior Cramer and Marlin Hu- lett were throwing rocks at me. When I ran up on the porch, Dad was standing inside the screen door and told me to lick that kid or he was gonna lick me. I started in on Marlin and the other two ran off. The Methodist minister was at his back door and hollered, “Give it to him, Dickie!” Mother told Dad he was teaching me to fight, and he said, “Yep.” At Christmas Fred and I got up early and turned on the light. Dad had hooked it to the Christmas tree lights and a Lionel train was running around the base of the tree! Fred and I finally wore that train out playing with it. We were poor but we always had clean clothes and never went hungry. Mom and Dad did their best with what they had. The next year, there was a string tied to the tree which said “Follow me.” It led us to the front porch where Dad had built us what we called a “bob sled,” using his old Flexible Flyer for the back runners and a short sled that Junior had for the steering runners. We had wonderful times with that for many years. By this time we had moved into a bigger house across the street from the Conards and close to the railroad tracks. Orofino Creek ran just beyond the railroad tracks. This house had a bathtub! The railroad was built to haul logs from the high country to Potlatch Forest lumber mill in Lewiston. Six days a week between 90 to 100 car loads of logs came past our house. There was a steam locomotive at each end. The one in back was for braking power because the grade was steep in some places. Each morning a string of empties went up. Fred and I would go out near the tracks as the engine went by and make motions like we were milking a cow and the engineer would oblige by shooting off steam on one side of the engine and then the other several times. Then we waited for the pusher engine and did the same thing. We loved the smell of the steam and always tried to be close enough to get a good whiff. When the logger came down on Saturday evening lumberjacks rode the log cars, piling off at Main Street and crossing the creek to the part of town which was called Canada, named this because you could buy whiskey by the drink at several bars there. This was illegal in Idaho, but the local police didn’t bother and left the jacks to their boozing as long as they stayed on that side of town. About this time, Aunt Lydia brought in a Wheaties box with a puppy inside. We named him Patches and he was our constant playmate through our childhood. We didn’t go anywhere without him and he didn’t go anywhere without us. He would lie as flat as he could in the middle of the sidewalk waiting for us to come from school. We would pretend we didn’t see him and start in a different direction and he would come bouncing and wiggling to us. Frank Griffith was often the conductor on that railroad line. He had been a good friend of Grandpa Lindgren. The leading engine would stop just short of Main Street and the crew would go to a café and eat. If you wanted to go out of town up Orofino Creek you were out of luck until they moved the train on down the river, because it blocked the only street heading up the creek. The conductor and the switchman left the caboose and walked the length of the train looking for “hot boxes.” The brakes often overheated coming down the grade and sometimes caused a fire in the lubricating box which was filled with oily rags at the end of each wheel. Mr. Griffith often brought his lunch box in and ate supper with us. Several times he put Fred and I in the caboose and once or twice we got to ride in the engine down to where they stopped. Because we lived so close to the railroad hobos often came to our house looking for something to eat. They were mostly out of work jacks and providing they would chop some wood or hoe the garden, Mom fed them. One day while one was eating on the back steps, Mom called me to the back door. Patches was lying there with his mouth around the man’s ankle and he was eating very slowly. I said I would go call Patches off but Mom said no that maybe they would quit coming. Hobos had a way of marking houses that would feed and they generally walked railroad tracks when they were going somewhere. Fred started school in 1937. He wasn’t six yet and I think Mom and Dad put him in school so Mom could work. About mid morning of the first school day, Mom opened the back door and found Fred and Patches on the doorstep. He told her he didn’t like school and wasn’t going back. She marched him back to school. Oud’s owned an apartment house and Mom worked there cleaning, doing wash and ironing. They also had the wholesale Conoco (gas and oil) and Dad did the deliveries. There was a violent strike by the woods workers against Potlatch. The state militia (National Guard now) came to help control the situation. They camped on the school grounds, which was only a block away, and when the bugler blew the wake up call I would jump out of bed and go up and watch them assemble. Non union mills were still operating and Dad delivered gas and oil to them. I went with him once. There was a soldier on each running board and one sitting on the tank in back. Then Grandma and Grandpa moved off the ranch. Emmette and George managed to get them a place. They sold most of the livestock, but kept two horses (Topsy and Duke), a couple of dairy cows, the hogs and chickens. They built a barn, a corn crib, a smoke house and fixed one shed for Grandpa’s blacksmith shop. He shaped his own horse shoes and made different attachments for his equipment. The place had a good orchard and lots of wild berries. Red raspberries, loganberries and black raspberries (we called them blackcaps). They were wonderful with cream and a little sugar and with a sugar cookie made with home churned butter. Mom’s brothers and sisters often came on weekends and there were good eats and more cousins for Fred and I to play with. There was a fine spring not far from the house and Dad got busy and piped it to the house and bought a pitcher pump so Grandma had water in the kitchen. Dad adored his motherin-law and would do anything he could for her. By this time Grandma was nearly deaf and Grandpa had cataracts so bad that he couldn’t read or tell time on his pocket watch. Oud’s had a delivery pickup and they didn’t want to park it downtown, so Dad brought it home and we were allowed to use it on weekends. Dad sold the Model T. We moved again. This place had two bedrooms and a bathtub! I was in the fourth grade and doing well enough in school that I was allowed to go to the bookshelf and get a book to read when I finished the assignment. Miss Weaver, my teacher, pronounced me eligible to skip the fifth grade if I got some help in math during the summer. Aretha Harvey (Ora and Lilly’s daughter) helped me. While we lived here Fred and I were playing in the yard. I fell on him and it broke his arm. The break had a chip which had to be removed and they took him to Lewiston. I was terribly ashamed and sad and hated seeing him in that gloomy looking hospital with all the Catholic statues hovering over him. Typically, he was the darling of the nurses and rather enjoyed himself, although he never let me forget that I was responsible for his broken arm. Orofino had areas which were nicknamed. Canada, which I mentioned, was the rough end of town where the illegal bars and whorehouses were. Mostly mill workers lived here. Up Orofino creek was called Yellow Dog. Gorman’s Addition was the nicer part of town and had a great hill for sledding. We moved to Jingletown, which was down along the river. This house was much bigger. There was a pole yard behind it and the railroad wasn’t far beyond that. The White Pine planing mill had piles of edgings generally about an inch wide and one or two inches thick in all kinds of lengths. These made great stick horses and swords to duel with. Grandpa became very ill. He was suffering from a brain hemorrhage and was delusional. They brought him to us and Mom took care of him until he became rather violent. Dr. Robertson recommended that he be moved to State Hospital North, which was an insane asylum. This bothered Mom’s family very much. He died there in 1938 or 1939. Grandma, Emmette, George and Junior came to live with us. Emmette and George had one bedroom upstairs and Grandma had the other. She had a room with a kitchen stove so she could cook for the boys. Junior, Fred and I slept on a large open area by the stairs. Emmette and George worked at the cement plant. Some times they worked days, sometimes swing shift and sometimes graveyard. Junior got a job delivering the Spokesman Review. I started delivering the Spokane Daily Chronicle, an evening paper. I am mentioning two incidents to help you realize what it was like to grow up in Orofino. My route was in Canada and I did my own collecting. My pockets were full of coins when I walked into the White Hotel bar (commonly called Finn Mary’s) to collect. There were a good many drunk jacks in there and I bumped into one and he heard the coins in my pocket jingle. He picked me up by the shoulders and started shaking me to hear me jingle. Mary came out from behind the bar with a baseball bat; he dropped me and I hit the floor running. I wouldn’t go back there to collect from then on unless Dad was with me. Sometime later a group of promoters came to town to try to get more subscriptions for us. During the morning my man only got a few subscriptions and at lunch when he found out how many the others had he was determined to get me more subscriptions. I told him that the ones he got me would probably remain subscribers but the ones the others had would probably quit the paper when the free trial ran out. He stopped in front of a homemade shack on the edge of the street above the planing mill. I told him I didn’t want to deliver the paper there. Finn Helga lived there and she could be mean. He insisted and knocked on the homemade Dutch door. Finn Helga opened the top part of the door and stood there peeling a potato with a butcher knife. He started his spiel and she said “no”. He kept on and she said “no” again. He said, “But Madame” and she stuck that knife in his belly and said, “I said no!” and closed the door. He got the message. Junior’s father, Ralph, moved to Orofino with his wife, Charlotte, a girl just younger than Fred named Francis, and Charlotte’s nephew Dwight Perrin. They lived nearby and Junior went to live with them. One day while Junior, Dwight, Fred and I were playing in the yard trying to tackle Patches, a motorized grader went by, working the street in front of the house. We had never seen a motorized grader before and asked Mom if we could follow it. She told us we could follow it as far as Nelson’s, which was about halfway to the North Fork River. We arrived at Nelson’s in jig time and Junior suggested we go on to the North Fork and swim. His famous words were, “They’ll never know.” When we got to the North Fork the river was jackstrawed full of logs from the Potlatch Forest river drive. We walked the river to Bruce’s Eddy (where the Dworshak Dam stands today) before we found open water. Junior had brought a can of tobacco and the rollins so we swam and smoked for a while. Then we heard a car honking and there were Mom and Aunt Charlotte. They cuffed us into the back seat and Mom said, “I’ll bet you’ve been smoking, too.” Junior, Dwight and I denied it, but Freddy said, “Yeah.” Had we gone under those logs, they would have never found us. Sometime later Ralph moved his family to Grangeville. Then we received word that Ralph had given Junior a beating. Emmette and George got Junior and brought him back to us. Grandma died about a year later. Emmette and George had sold the farm and purchased a 1940 Plymouth. They went to California, and Junior, now a high school senior, went to live with his father again, this time in Pierce. We moved to a smaller house and Mom got her first electric range. George received his draft notice, came to tell us goodbye and went off to the war. Junior graduated from high school (1942) and he and a friend, Bruce Barwise, joined the Navy. Bruce was Aunt Helen’s brother. We didn’t know her for several years. I turned 13 that summer and worked for Oud’s Pharmacy as a soda jerk and general gofer. I got $40 a month and worked from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and a half day Sunday. Dad left to work in the ship yards in Bremerton, WA. One day Buzz Oud sent me to get a carbonated soda bottle from Finn Mary’s. I walked into the bar and stayed close to the door. She was pouring whiskey for three jacks. One of them spilled his and she poured him another. He spilled that, too, and she said, “What’s the matter with you? Did you get [!@#$%$#] last night?” Then she came around the bar and said “I’m sorry, child.” Sometime after school started Fred got the measles. Then I got them. I was way behind in school and it was going to get worse. Sometimes Mom kept a little girl from across the street and one day while she was sitting on the toilet (the door was open) Fred walked by and she said, “Hey you, come wipe my butt!” Fred nearly died laughing. Aunt Lydia’s husband, B. J. (Bed) Kinne had a business associate in Seattle. They had a cottage at Point No Point near the tip of the Kitsap peninsula they would rent to us. Aunt Lydia took us to Bremerton. Aunt Hazel went along. The speed limit during the war was 35 mph. Between Walla and Yakima we got into an army convoy which traveled at 50 mph. There were big trucks loaded with cannons, tanks and men and it was an awesome sight for a couple of kids from the back country. We found Dad, but he stayed in Bremerton for a while because he had no transportation to get to the yards. We built a fire in the fireplace and Mom, Aunt Hazel and Aunt Lydia backed up to that warming fire and lifted the backs of their dresses. All three were quite heavy at that time. There they stood laughing at each other. Life at Point No Point was quite interesting. We saw fishing boats working together netting salmon. Dad and I rowed out to (Cont pg 10B) 6B—Clearwater Tribune – Orofino, ID – AUGUST 16, 2012 BUSINESS DIRECTORY CLASSIFIEDS CONTAINERS CLASSIFIED ADS GET RESULTS!

Visitors at the meeting were Frank Wityczak and his son, Joey. Joey is the recipient of this year’s Rotary Memorial Schol-arship. During the meeting, Joeytookafewminutesto outlinehisupcomingplans and goals, and to thank Rotary. Congratulations, Joey,andgoodluck! Several Rotarians then presented club announcements. The first was that all the flags have been ordered to complete the VFW’s U.S. Flag Project. When the flags have all arrived, Mike Dugger will callforvolunteerstofinish drilling the flag pole holes on Johnson Avenue and will sponsor the finishing oftherequiredflagpoles. Everyone was reminded of the upcoming Red C r o s s / K i w a n i s / R o t a r y Community Blood Drive at the Armory Aug 14-16. Givethegiftoflife! Last week, the teens and sponsors of the new Interact Club again met. Bylaws have been drafted, Committeesorganized,and the group is now working to involve the High School andotherkidsintheInteractClub.ARotaryInteract club is a group of young people (age 12-18), sponsored by a parent Rotary club, which offers young people an opportunity to perform local and internationalcommunityservice. A number of Rotarians were planning to join the Kiwanis Club members at their6:30p.m.CornFeed, August14.Yum! Joe Davis then introduced the speaker for the meeting, Margaret (Calland)Fine.Margaretiswell known to many Orofino and Clearwater folks, as she has lived in this area her entire life. She talked tothosepresentabouther daysworkinginthelogging camps in the 1940s as a camphelper.Sheistheauthor of the autobiography: “FunintheWoods.” Margaret was born in 1923 and for the first 16 years of her life lived on theranchherfatherhomesteadedintheGrangemont area. She then attended schoolinGrangemontand later moved in with her AuntandUncleinOrofino tofinishschool. After working at various part-time jobs in Orofino, attheHelgesonHotel,and later the Telephone Company, she took a better paying job in the Potlatch logging camps as a cook’s helper and general camp aide,earninga“darngood” $84amonth. Scroungingablacksuitcase, she then set off for her first job, replacing “Gypo-Annie” Johnson at Camp 11. To get at Camp 11,shehadtotakeaGaffney Stage Line bus with a bunch of hung-over lumberjacks to Headquarters. As she told Clearwater Tribune Reporter, Alannah Allbrett in a March 4, 2010article,“shewasthen toldtocatchthe‘speeder’” – a boxcar on the railroad line.“Thatis‘asinglerailroad car without sides on it.Somehadcovers;others didnot.Somehadbenches to sit on; others did not.’ But this is what the railroademployeesusedtoget fromonecamptoanother. After the scenic ride on thespeeder,wheresheadmired the beauty between Pierce and Headquarters, shehadtogetonasupply truckwithabunchofmen. ‘I thought that I should havebeenaskedtoridein thecab,butnosuchluck. Ihadnotenvisionedmein thebackofasupplytruck with eight or ten lumberjacks.Ohwell,wemadeit allright,’saidMargaret.” Then, Margaret went on to describe some of the funny and interesting things that happened to her in the logging camps. Shedescribedhowsheand the other girls working in the camps got up at 4:30 a.m.tohelpthecook,baker and dishwasher fix breakfast; how they went to the dump to watch the bears; howshecloggedthedrains by washing the worn-out cleaningrags;howshewas mistakenly shipped a fireplace screen from Montgomery Ward’s; and how she once got her clothes starched by the prankplayingkitchencrew. During her talk, she quoted Harvey Spears as At the Orofino Rotary meeting of Aug. 10, Joey Wityczak, son of Frank and the late Barbara Wityczak, was awarded the 2012 $1,300 Rotary Memorial Scholarship to help continue his university education. Congratulations, Joey! saying his famous line, “Onlythestrongshallsurvive and the weak will fall by the wayside.” This was a pretty good quote, we suspect,forthehardwork required in the woods in 1942sandduringthefirst partsofWWII! Lastlyshedescribedhow they shut Camp 11, the last of the “horse camps,” and moved her to Camp 29,a“railroadcamp,”and eventuallytoherlastcamp, Camp53. Margaret told us much about a bygone era of the Logging camps, how she learnedtocarryfiveplates offoodononearmandfive bowlsofsoupontheother so as to not spill food on the lumberjacks, and how tobecarefulnottoblowup the cook stove with flammablefirestarters. Lastly,shetoldusabout the unfortunate jack who was burned badly in the bunk house and who was treated with only cold tea because of 10 foot deep snow and the absence of firstaidsupplies. Thanks, Margaret, for yourtalesofyearsgoneby intheloggingcampsofthe 1940s. Check out the March 4, 2010 Clearwater Tribune Article entitled: Margaret Calland-Fine, former logging camp “flunkey.” Her book, “Fun In The Woods,” is available from the Clearwater Historical Museum, or perhaps from Margaretherself.

SPECIAL SERVICE : Want to order your pet’s meds on-line? To learn how, call or visit our site. 807 Michigan Avenue 208-476-5995 orofinoanimalclinic.com Recently we had much needed help from our local prison. We have to teach almost all of the dogs we get to walk on leash, and learn basic commands. We also have to build confidence by teaching our dogs to navigate stairs. For most of the dogs it is at first a terrifying experience. The inmates built a set of stairs that are terrific! This enables us to teach our dogs to go up and down stairs with confidence. Every home we adopt to has stairs. During winter when conditions are icy we will be able to continue to teach stair climbing without the perils of slipping and sliding for the trainer and the dog. Under supervising correctional officer Chris Schultz these stairs were built by Mr. James Breedlove, Mr. Ira Tankovich, Mr. Juan Guzman, Mr. Matthew Faulkner, and Mr. Clay Nulph. These men were enthusiastic and very professional. These stairs will serve to build confidence for hundreds of our dogs for many years to come. We train our dogs to walk on leash in a variety of settings. Recently we had three dogs get foxtails in their toes. Each extraction of these foxtails cost $161.00! That is more than our adoption fee and does not include wormings, vaccinations, spay/neuter and microchip. Because, again under the supervision of Mr. Chris Schultz, Mr. Bobby Adams, Mr. Richard Hensley, Mr. Jace Thompson, Mr. Martin Schorzman and Mr. Christopher Yardley weed eated areas for us to walk our dogs, we will not have to worry about foxtails and weeds hurting the dogs. We will now be able to walk through areas with trees to weave in and out of. This builds skill and confidence in various leash training maneuvers. These men also filled the bottom of our kennels with gravel. This helps to give our dogs a clean and safe area. We cannot thank each of you enough for your hard work, politeness and enthusiasm. We need large stainless steel bowls for water. We also need treats for training. Small milk bones and other tasty treats are great. We are almost out of blankets. Please donate your clean used ones. We cannot use sleeping bags or comforters. Dogs will chew the zippers and stuffing from sleeping bags and comforters. Blankets and bedspreads are great! We really need canned and dry cat/kitten food and litter right now. We also need small ceramic bowls for the kitten and cat food. We also need covered litter pans. We need towels to bathe our dogs and cats. Please don’t throw your old towels away— we will put them to good use. ***We need nylabones and tug toys for the dogs/puppies and toys for our cats/kittens right now.*** You can drop all donations of food, toys, blankets, etc. at Orofino Builders Supply.

Lundgren, O.D. FAMILY EYE CARE iritis (part i) Iritis is the inflammation of the iris, the colored portion of the eye. Iritis, which is often the result of a disease in another part of the body, can be a recurring condition. A fairly common eye problem, iritis usually responds well to treatment. However, the condition may become sight threatening when left untreated. The iris is a circular muscle near the front of the eye. Besides giving color to the eye, the iris controls the amount of light which enters the eye through the pupil. The iris is located behind the cornea (the clear protective layer of the eye) and just in front of the focusing lens. To see clearly, the proper amount of light must enter the eye. Just as the shutter controls the amount of light which enters a camera, the iris regulates the amount of light which enters the eye. The iris contains two muscles which control the size of the pupil opening. When too much light is present, the muscles cause the pupil to become smaller, reducing excessive light and glare. In dim light or at night, the muscles make the pupil larger to increase the amount of the light entering the eye. 476-5365, 476-4814 180 Michigan Avenue Orofino, ID 83544 Tammy CareyPippenger takes first place in Vegas Tammy Carey-Pippenger took first place in Las Vegas, NV, on Aug. 1-4 at the Cowboy Mounted Shooting Association (CMSA) Western Nationals in her Lady’s 1 Division.

With the two wins Tammy is now first place in the nation in her Lady’s 1 Division. In October she will be in Amarillo, TX, for the world finals. Thornton family reunion at the Cook’s in Judgetown Jim and Barbara Cook hosted a family gathering in Judgetown over the weekend. Present were their children, Ron and Stacey Cook and Paige of Post Falls; Mike with son Wyatt of Kendrick, and daughter Mia with her son Teagan of Lewiston; Vicci and son Bradley of Lewiston; and brother Ray and Lea Thornton of Greer, his son Jim Thornton and daughter of Orofino; sister Beverly and daughter Terry of Lewiston; brothers Ray Thornton of Colbert, WA, Richard and Dena Thornton of Spokane, WA, and Randy Thornton of Clarkston, WA. If it were a ‘breezy day,’ one could say two young women breezed through town on their bikes enroute to Lewiston. But it was anything but a breezy day; the weather reported it as, “a sweltering summer day, with a high of 100 or more.” Zoey MemmertMiller and Gaby WaldmanFried started out their Wednesday morning at Lolo Pass, MT. They biked down Hwy. 12 and stopped in Orofino because they saw a health food store at Dr. Dennis Harper’s business. The girls agreed to meet with me for a brief talk about what they were doing. I could have asked them questions well into the evening; their story was that fascinating as it unfolded, but they planned to make Lewiston before nightfall. Zoey and Gaby are two single women who grew up in New York City, one raised in Manhattan and the other in the Bronx. Both are college students who decided they wanted a) an adventure, b) to see more of America, and c) to promote the wonders of bicycle travel as alternative transportation. And what an adventure it’s been. Starting out on June 4th, with the support of their concerned parents, these two young women set out as “first time travelers” with about 100 lbs. of gear on each of their bikes. Their chosen route took them from New York, through New Jersey, northern Pennsylvania, across northern Ohio, and up through Michigan’s “mitten” area to its upper peninsula. From Michigan they rode to northern Wisconsin, south to Minneapolis, Minnesota, through South Dakota to a place they’ve always wanted to see – Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. Zoey and Gaby camped out or stayed with people all along the way. Entering Yellowstone, they camped out at Madison Campground, biked another 50 miles the next day and camped at Bridge Bay. They were impressed! “It was very cool; we saw geysers and buffalo!” When they began their journey, the girls said they had three mountain ranges to cross and were only making about 50 miles per day. As their strength and fitness increased, they were averaging about 65 miles a day in the west. As we Idahoans know, the mountains in the west are nothing to sneeze at. They had to bike over Badger Pass (6,755 ft. elevation), the mountains above Big Hole, and Chief Joseph pass (7,264 ft. elevation) before even reaching Lolo Pass. They’ve tubed in the Clark Fork River in Montana and swam in Idaho’s Lochsa; Idaho is the eleventh of thirteen states they will see on their U.S. journey. At the time of this writing, they had the goal of going on to the Pacific states of Washington and Oregon. Zoey and Gaby assured me they left no brokenhearted men behind in New York. It would take quite a guy to keep up with one of these young women who has demonstrated her intrepidation, fortitude, and good-natured optimism in undertaking bicycling across the United States. Singing songs by Joni Mitchell, Cat Stevens, Simon and Garfunkel, Crosby Stills and Nash, and the Fleet Foxes “....I’ve gone to look for America...” the girls have cycled, meeting interesting people all along the way. They have packed their own gear, and most times, done their own bike maintenance. When asked if grease from the road caused her grimy hands, Gaby shook her head “No.” She had just replaced the bicycle chain on her bike. They’ve had numerous flat inner-tubes to fix, broken spokes, and minor mishaps. They said even their tires are starting to wear out. The girls said they’ve seen a lot of beautiful places and met fun people. “People all over the country have been wonderful,” they shared. They’ve taken pictures of “beautiful landscapes, people, funny things, and each other.” When asked if they would recommend this trip to others they responded instantly, and simultaneously, “DO IT!” To be inspired by more of their adventures visit their blog at: livesimplybikeoften.blogspot.com. They freely admit that, though they went to look for their independence, they have been dependent upon many others along the way – not necessarily a bad thing. Growing up........................................... (Continued from 5B) one boat and asked if we could buy salmon. The man said it was illegal to sell them to us. Dad had a silver dollar, which were not common here. He showed it to the man - the man picked up a nice Chinook, put it in our boat and Dad flipped him the dollar. Great rafts went by heading for a sawmill. Sometimes one got loose and we would get it for firewood. Warships of all kinds came to stand off the lighthouse at the point so they could set their compasses before going out to fight the Japs. PBY’s, a large slow moving aircraft that could set down on the water, were constantly patrolling looking for Jap subs. Mother and I spent many hours in the aircraft spotting shack reporting planes that were in the area. We would try to identify the type of plane, estimate how high it was and its direction. Then we cranked up the old fashioned phone on the wall and called to a center in Seattle where a map of the area was covered with models of planes and the WAFs would use a stick to move them keeping track of the air traffic. One day I heard a great roar and thought we were being invaded. I looked all over the sky and could see nothing. Then I looked down and there were four PT boats roaring across the water. Whidby Island was across from us. There they trained navy fighter pilots. At Everett the army had a base. Sometimes Fred and I would go to the point and sit and watch them have mock battles. The winter was terrible. Zero degrees and wind howling. We were snowed in for a week or 10 days and missed school again. The wind was coming through our front door and right up the fireplace chimney. Our neighbor came over and told me he had a sheet of plywood and a canvas and if I would help him we could put it over the door. When I stepped out the back door he had stepped into the wind whistling between our houses and was flying down the drive. When I caught up with him I asked why he didn’t let go of the plywood. He said was afraid it would beat him to death. In the spring of ‘43 we moved into Bremerton in a federal housing project. Now we had access to shopping and city buses to get us around. Ferries ran to Seattle and sometimes Mother took Fred and I while she did some shopping there. Our unit was just above a deep, narrow draw with a creek running through it. Two great Douglas Firs had fallen across the draw and made a nice bridge for Fred and I to get to the other side. I had missed much school by now and Bremerton High was so crowded that juniors and seniors attended in the morning and freshmen and sophomores in the afternoon. They stuck you wherever they had an empty desk and I was in several classes that I knew nothing about. I convinced Mom and Dad that it would be best for me to quit and go back in the fall, so I really hadn’t lost anything because I had skipped the fifth grade. *** When choosing flowers for your home, interior designer Kelli Ellis, who frequently appears on HGTV, says consider the room’s style. For a traditional style, bring in an arrangement of flowers with full blooms, such as roses or carnations. In a room with a more playful look, try gerbera daisies or tulips. Ellis also recommends placing the flowers in areas that need softening or could use a burst of color. Adding flowers enhances celebrations, says lifestyle party expert Jeanne Benedict, who recommends looking for unexpected ways to decorate the event with flowers, ***
