"BOOst-DOn't Roast Association,

| MOSCOW, Feb. AT a meeting held
In Morrill, hall last evening an organi-
Zat1on OF Twin Falls country students
was effected. 1t will be known as the

The membership includes all students
from the irrigated tracts in the south
central part of the state, known COL
lectively as the Twin Falls country.

people at the university know that
Twin Falls is on the map. The newly
chosen officers of the association are.

der, vice president; H. S. Youngs, Sec
retary and treasurer. There were two

DEATH OF CARL BARTON.
Victim OF Accident While Working on
Power Lines.

| Carl Barron, fourth son of Mr.. anC
Mrs. Sylvester Barron, died at tel
O'Clock Wednesday morning at the
Boyer ranch near the Malad river il
Hagerman valley. Death was the re.
suit of an accident which occurred
shortly after 800 o'clock Sunday af,
ternoon.
At the time the deceased was al
work taking down the temporary line
which the Great Shoshone & Twin
Falls Water Power Company, for
which he was working, had put up to
replace the line which the Beaver
River company had destroyed ten DAYS
before. He, with Earl Wells, was tax
Ing the insulators off the last pole
when it fell without warning, throwing
the two young men to the ground.
The men were strapped to the pole
by their safeties so they had no chance
TO Jump away from the pole when it
fell. Carl Barron received a number
injuries, the exact nature of which
could not be determined as he never
regalned consciousness from the time
OF the accident until his death. 1t is
thought by the physicians who had
charge of the case that death resulted
iioiil vi tie DTdln.
Everything possible was done to
save the young mans life, but to no
avail. The members of the crew on
which the deceased worked cared for
MIN until a professional nurse arrived
from Twin Falls. DR.. Fankboner of
Hagerman, had charge of the case and
called in Dr. Stewart for consultation.
Carl Barron had been connected
with construction crew of the Great
Shoshone & Twin Falls Water Power
co. since last July and during that
time made friend of every man con-
nected with the company with whom
he come in contact. His cheerful dis
position at all times, his willingness to
work at every CALL and his sterling
character stamped him as one man in
many, and forecasted a successful fu-
ture. His death is truly morned by his
fellow workmen and by his superiors.
The accident which caused his death
was the last act of a ten-day drama
that showed the real worth of the men
who took part in it, and throughout
the time Carl Barron was counted one
of the best men on the job. Though a
boy in years, he played mans part
we'll. ~
Carl Barron was born at Fonda, Po-
cahontas county, Iowa, Feb. Is, 1894.
Besides his mother and father, he is
survived by the following brothers
and sisters: Miss Mary, of Mountain
Home; Mrs. Anna Rich, of Spokane; !;
Nicholas, of Masonville, Iowa; Will
liam and Leo of Sioux City, Iowa !;
John, of Glenns Ferry, and Ignatius
and Sylvester, who live with their
parents.
The funeral services were held at

Home, Friday.

Many q reader of the fictitious ad-
ventures Of the famous hero Of the
"Munchausenaid" (Which was first pub
lished in English at Oxford during the
lifetime Of this prince Of all liars) has
no conception that the hero was a real
person. Baron Hieronymus Karl Fried
rich Won Munchausen was Han
overian nobleman. a subject Of the first
three Georges. He was born In 1920
and died in 1907. He took service in q
Russian cavalry regiment. but retired
in old age to his ancestral estate at
Bodeuwerder. In Hanover. where he
became notorious for the magnificent
lies about his military adventures with
which he used to entertain his neigh
bors at his hospitable board. COL
lection of these stories, entitled wade
mecum fur lustige Leute." was pub
lished at Berlin in 1871 without the
baron's permission. The English work.
Baron Munchausen's Narrative Of His
Marvellous Travels and Campaigns In

provement of the Berlin collection.

dent during a voyage to India: zone
dark evening l sat In my cabin feel
ing thoroughly unwell, as the sea was
rising fast and l was but poor sailor.
Suddenly the cry Of Man overboardv
made me spring to my feet. I~heard
a trampling overhead, but resolved
not to 60 on deck lest should inter-
fere with the crew in their efforts to
save the poor man.
"'What can l do? I asked myself,
and, instantly unlocking my lamp. l
held it near the top Of my cabin and
close to my bullseye window. that its
light might shine on the sea and as
near the ship as possible. In a half
minutes time / heard the joyful cry.
It's all right: he's safe! upon which
I put my lamp in its place. The next
day, however. was told that my lit
tie lamp was the sole means Of saw
ing the mans life. 1t was only by the
timely light which shone upon him
that the knotted rope could be thrown

"Makino the Best Of 7hinoe."

There are several injudicious ways
Of making the best of things. One OF
them is illustrated by the humble
young curate. pictured long ago in
Punch, who protested when the bish-
op. his host. expressed doubts Of an
egg the curate was eating. "Oh. no.
my lord; assure you some parts of it
are excellent" Fancy looking on the
bright side of bad egg! The effort
was surely less ingra tiating than the
curate supposed. Indeed. this habit of
seeing good in everything may become
the most uncomfortable Of virtuesas
distressing as grim patience, which is
q common and effective method of
wearing out the mind. l like to re-
member the complacent old lady who
said when a friend reminded her that
she had had little trouble in life. Yes.
but I've made the most Of what have
had" She chose more wisely than the
people who come exhausted out Of their
victories over circumstance. Wounds
Of the spirit are glorious only when
the battle has been mighty.-Atlantic
