Among all the good things that
have been left over for week or
two for, want of space we find the
account sent in by Mrs. Hoover of
the last meeting of the Economic
and Kensington departments of the
Current Events of Blackfoot, which
was very interesting Current Events
were lively and timely, as well as
the discussions that followed. The
subject of Legislation was discussed,
also civil service reform and the
Crumpacker bill, but no action on
either Of these was taken. Also the
ACCESSIBILITY of bill prohibiting the
sale of poisonous and Injurious
drugs without a physicians consent.
AT the next meeting the best books
for children will be considered. Be-
fore adjournment the Colonial was
fully discussed. A full account of
this annual social entertainment was
given in the regular columns of the
Republican last week. The Current
Event Is doing good work and If we
at any time neglect to report them,
1t is because we feel our first cour-
tesy is due the other clubs of the
state, leaving the home club for the
last.
The following letter from Mrs.
Morgan shows how we may make
Echoes useful and helpful:

ron, who saw the little note you
rave for me In Echoes and very
promptly and thoughtfully wrote to
