A fragment from a Payette Enterprise page recalls an Arkansas farmer made postmaster amid complaints of no mail. An inspector finds an almost empty bag. The item then drifts into a column of 1919 proverbs, civic booster notes, water concerns, and local reflections.
A New York Evening Post snippet describes a child at a party refusing extra ice cream with a polite no thank you while the hostess urges more, and the mother explains politeness. The piece blends a domestic vignette with the era’s tone.
The article notes expanding Sunday School and church activities across Sundays with plans for junior leagues, hour of laymen at 11, and evening meetings. Midweek services, choir practice, and a census effort by the mineral association are also mentioned as efforts to strengthen church life.
The church plans a five year Centenary program to mobilize resources for evangelization and social reform. It calls for large funding to educate immigrants, expand rural church leadership, and build schools and hospitals. Aimed at global gospel work, it projects extensive mission housing, schools, clinics, and trained personnel. Special talks and events accompany the Idaho probate notice and a local farm ad.
January greetings from Little Willow detail a newborn at George Mendel hall and a wet month ahead. The column mentions Leo Howard visiting Hank Williams, road conditions delaying photographer trips to Paddock Valley reservoir, upcoming entertainments at Eastside School, and local moves including Chas Wilosa to a homestead. Also notes winter feed conditions and a sale of Silver Laced Wyandotte eggs at Mrs. A Wellas.
The world’s greatest cataract lies on the Iguaga River between Brazil and Argentina. The falls drop 210 feet and span about 13 128 feet, wider than Niagara.
