STRAWBERRY PICKERS
PICKED BY JASPER,
Sarcoxie Team Overwhelmed in
Storm of Baskets Satur-
day Night.

1t was a weird exhibition of the in.
door pastime commonly known ss
basket ball that was witnessed by the
fans who turned out to see the Sarcoxie
Athletics do battle with the village
youths Saturday night. The athletes
from the strawberry town had been
playing good ball all season and were
expected to make our kids 60 some to
beat them, but they we're the veriest
fruit, the original package of canned
bananas, from start to finish. Any team
that could beat a carpet could have
beaten Sarcoxie. If the Jasper team
had played in form from the start they
would have easily broken the high ecore
record for these parts. They came near
it, as it was.
The first half Of the game was fairly
close, and was very interesting. Sar.
ooxe scored the first basket, forward
Parks slipping one over Probert with 8
pretty one-handed shot from the side
line. Shortly afterward the score stood
tied at six and six, but from that point
Jasper forged ahead, steadily but slow
ly, owing to the inaccurate shooting Of
the forwards, Crawford and White, who
had countless shots but couldn't seem
to locate the bas ket. When the whistle
announced the ond Of the first halt JAS
per had 10 points to Sarcoxie's 8, and
we're beginning to display form that
looked bad for Sarcoxie.
In the second half Jasper gave the
visitors practical demonstration of the
art of basket shooting. Crawford,
White and Steiner suddenly: developed
an amazing passion for dropping the
pellet into the net, and Sarcoxie's best
efforts couldn't stop them. Before the
half was over Crawford had shot eight
baskets, White seven and Steiner three
while the guards, Strecker and Proberl
each damned one 10 to make it unani
nous. Jasper piled up A points in this
half, while Sarooxie accumulated 10
so that the finalfscore was Jasper 63
Sarcoxie 10, rather crushing defeat
considering that the two teams figured
about even on paper.

his cowardice by the whole regiment,

FIRMS GREAT GROWTH
HOUSE OF FALK BUILT UP FROM PIO-
NEER BEGINNING

The Falk Mercantile Co. is without
question the most prominent, both in re-
tail and wholesale. Beginning in small
way many years ago it has by its square
dealing and catering to the wants and
needs of the people built up a business
which is now the principal one in the
inter-mountain region. The retail store
occupies four floors which are well
stocked in the way of dry goods, wear
ing apparel and groceries. Their whole
sale district is the outcome of the
success of the firm in the retail business.
Each department is under the supervis-
ion of member of the company and
who have grown up with the business.
1t is one of the features of the Falks
that an employee who proves himself
proficient and worthy of trust is pro-
NOTED as the opportunity occurs and
finally given an interest in the business
and charge of department in which he
has been brought up. In this manner
they have won the respect and confidence
of the trade When the wholesale busi-
ness was established the older employ
ees were placed in charge and others
promoted to take their places.
Their business extends over a vast
territory, their travelling salesman cover
ing every town within the territory trib-
utary TO Boise Their annual sales run
up TO several hundred thousand dollars

Gently been overcome by the establishing

and none are more proficient in their

that can be given to them. A number

firms i'll the city is that of Cohen & Nc
Dewitt These two young men succeeded
to the clothing business of the late Albert
Kohny, less than two years ago but
during this time they have built up a
successful business. Mr.. Cohen was for
many years with Mr. Kohny, and was
familiar with the business. Mr.. Nc
Dewitt was well known young man and
the people expressed their confidence
in him last fall by electing him state
senator on the Democratic ticket in a
county heavily Republican. They cater
to all classes of trade and the poor man
is treated with the same courtesy as the

bers of the firm came to Boise several
years ago full of energy and faith in
the growth of the city They invested
in real estate which they have seen grow
in value until today they own some of
the most valuable real estate in the
city. Two members of the firm have
been honored by the voters of Boise in
choosing them for mayor and under
the administration of each the city has
made rapid growth To the head Of
the firm is to be given the credit for
promoting and bringing to successful
operation the Boise & Interurban railway
which has from the first been Of incalcul-
able benefit to the city. They could not
have attained the results they have and
conducted such a successful business as
they have had they not been fair in
their dealings with their customers.
Many a man who has accumulated
competency in Boise during the past few
years owes his success in first taking the
advice of w E. Pierce & Co in making

BOISE IS GROWING
ElnGE NUMBER OF BUILDINGS NOW

Boise is going to continue to grow
and the coming year will witness the
greatest growth in its history. The build

under construction and work which is
assured Real estate is commencing to
move especially in small interurban tracts
Atrip over either one of the interurban
electric lines shows that a large num-

These are erected largely by people who
have come here from the east to make
their future homes. And as this con-
dition continues others will follow cutt-
ing up former large ranches, the product
of which was largely alfalfa, into small
acreage devoted to fruit growing.
All of this will build up Boise and the
surrounding towns. The volume of
business to be transacted in the Boise
and Payette valleys this year will be the
largest in the history of this section.
Supplies of all kinds will be needed and
the merchants will reap a large harvest.
And nowhere in the Inter mountain
country are the merchants better able to I
supply these demands than in Boise. Her
merchants are enterprising and energetic.

rapidly and is supplying the trade with
