THE TELEPHONE GIRL.

The telephone girl sits still in her

she hears all the news, she knows
who is happy and who has the blues;
she knows all our sorrows, she knows
all our joys she knows every girl
who is chasing the boys; she knows
Of our troubles, she knows of our
strife, she knows every man who
talks mean to his wife; she knows
every time we are out with "the

fellow employs; she knows every
man who has dark past, she knows
every man who's inclined. to be

LITTLE LOST RESERVOIR
Is STORING WATER NOW

from the Mackay Miner.
=. Fl. Mathews, representing the
Idaho Land Co., of Kansas City, sell
ing agents for the Blaine County
Irrigation Co., informed he Miner
man that the land lying under the
reservoir constructed by the Irriga-
ton company, was nearly all sold.
The company began work on the
project in 1907 and now have the
system we'll under way. OF the 49,
600 acres to be watered, 1850 have
already been disposed Of. Mr.. Math-
ews stated that the reservoir was
filling nicely now. He expects to
see at least half of the people who
have bought water settle and begin
to reclaim the land this year.
Little Lost river people report
the frost leaving the ground and
some early discing being done.

MAIL ORDER FRAUD

Down at Provo an attractive look
| ing woman went about among the
good homes and took orders for soap
and groceries, to be shipped from st.
Louis, says the Salt Lake Republican.
The prices she quoted were very
much below what the good people of
Provo had to say to their dealers
there. Oh, yes. s4t
The attractive looking woman re-
Quired In all cases part and in most
cases full payment to be made with
the order.
Then she went away with some
hundreds of dollars Of Provo money.
That was last November-when all
good Utah people were interested in
the campaign.
Now it is March, and the attractive
loking woman has not been heard
from. Neither have her groceries.
Nor her soap.
And there is belief in Provo that
it would have been cheaper to buy
groceries and soap at home.
Which is about the lesson we all
learn sooner or later.
st. Louis and Chicago price lists
look very attractive, sometimes. But
citizens of Utah generally find it is
better in the long run to buy of
home dealers. For one thing, they
get what they pay for.
And that is something that dealing
with the attractive looking woman
does not always insure.

ELEPHANT ON A TEAR.

SAN BERNAD1NO, CAL, March 81.
"A large circus elephant broke its
chains and ran amuck through the
town. In its dash for liberty, the
animal demolished number of
fences and outhouses, after which it
went on wild rampage through the
tenderloin district OF the city. The
elephants keepers, who had been
chasing it, lost sight of the beast,
and for some time it was at large.
No one was injured.

If you see to it that your chile.
follows these suggestions, the friends
Of that child will take notice and

We each have a circle of influence.
If your family surroundings are i'm
proved, your neighbor will adopt
something which she has found to be
of benefit to, you.

another, perhaps three or four, the
circles ever widening, then all Will

touch one neighbor, she will touch
another, and so on, until through you
great benefit will come to the neigh

fit of the neighborhood.

grew in popularity, and, consequent

finally forced to employ a matron.
We pay her SIS week and board her
and her husband, but the two do all
Of the work about the place. having
relieved the club members who at
first volunteered their personal sery-
Ices. In order to meet this extra
expense, we required more revenue
than we were receiving. The conse-
quence was that we decided to serve
lunches, charging 5 cents for each
article on the bill of fare, such as
soup and crackers, sandwiches. pie,
cake, cold meat, beans and similar
dishes.
''As soon as we added this culinary
department we began to receive town
patronage. School children and
teachers came here for lunch, and
men, women and girls, both town
people and non-residents, were
among our regular customers. The
natural outgrowth Of this luncheon
service was the decision to serve 25-
cent dinners on festival and other
days when there was an unusually
large number of people in town.
Growing thus, we finally were forced
out Of our original quarters and now
we have four comfortable rooms, one
of which is reserved exclusively for
women and babies We have gradu-
ally added to our library, until we
have 500 volumes, including the lat
est and best boks. The merchants
now very generally contribute rs
Gets each per month to the support
of the work. This more than pays
the rent, and as the meals and
lunches pay the other costs of main
tenance, we have some surplus,
which is used to add comfort to the
rooms. There is no profit made.
Everything earned goes back into the
rest rooms, and no one except the
matron receives cent for work done
In behalf of the organization.
During the early spring there
were a great many idle strangers in
Sunnyside. The rest room manage
ment invited them all to free sup
per. We distribute tickets, each of
which bore verse of Scripture. At
least SO men were served. They all
asked to be permitted to keep their
tickets as souvenirs of the occasion.
We have also found that the rest
room Is of value in that 1t takes the
place of the saloon as an assembly
place for the men who come to town
alone. Very often men come in and
make some such remark as: There
are no saloons IN tnlS town and this
is a better place to wait, anyway
We have had many other expressions
of appreciation, not only from out of
town visitors, but from business men
of Sunnyside, who have come to look
upon the rest room as good invest
ment. Often strangers ask us where
they should trade, and, of course. wei
do not send them to merchants who
do not contribute to the support OF
our work.
What we have done could be done
in any town anywhere in the country.
We merely saw and met public

! ST. ANTHONY.

The Literary Club of st. Anthony
held Household Economies" meet
Ing Tuesday. A paper on "Prac
tical, Sanitary and Economic Cook.
ing" was given by Mrs. James
Fryer. The club used the method
suggested by Mrs. Stone of the
Caldwell club and prepared and
served lunch. The members all
went into the kitchen and watched
the demonstration and with credit
to the cooks thoroughly enjoyed the
lunch they had seen prepared. The
Civic committee reported having pre-
sented some requests to the council
as well as having personally seen
each councilman in regard to the
same. This committee especially
urged an ordinance preventing boys
under Is years of age frequenting the
pool halls, as well as asking for a
spring cleaning day. Already have
the wagons been secured for this
spring house cleaning, of yards,
alleys and the like. This club has
proven that club work does not in
terfere with home duties and caring
for the little ones entrusted to their
care, There are no less than seven
of the club members who have little
ones less than three years old and
these children come to many of the
regular sessions. The mothers are
permitted to improve. their minds
and at the same time care for the
little ones. Our woman who can en-
Joy club work while mothering their
families are given rest of mind and
new thought, thus making better
mothers.
