IS CONNECTED UP

The Idaho-Oregon Light & Power
company has just placed poles for its
high power line between Parma and
Caldwell. These poles will be placed
in position and the heavy copper wire
strung as quickly as possible. When
the line between Parma and Caldwell
IS completed it will close the last gap

trio power loop now extends from
Barber Dam to Boise and to Horse
shoe Bend; from Horseshoe Bend
through Emmett, New Plymouth.
Payette to Weiser; from Weiser .up
through Ontario, Nyssa and on to
Parma. From Parma to Caldwell is
the gap soon to be filled. From Cald-
well the loop extends to Nampa and
Swan Falls. and back to Meridian and
Boise. connecting up with the power
plant at Barber Dam, six miles above

1t is observed that this company
has power plants on three rivers. one
power plant being on the Boise river

BOARD Will take
PLENTY OF time
TO FILL VACANCY

The resolutions passed by the board
of regents of the University of Idaho,
express appreciation of the service

for which foolish reason like you all the
better, but you must try to take my point
Of view. You say that we can be married
on nothing and take our chances.
So we can, old simple heart, but aren't
those chances all against us? Would you
like to be forced to work in some office
for just enough to live on? You know
you would not, and you know how you
would suffer in such slavery.
Nevertheless we cannot live on air, and
I doubt if I would stand transplanting to
the wild life you love better than you to
a clerks desk. You have that fancy
which gilds the tin cans in the back yard.
l have that unfortunate eye which would
multiply their number by three and their
unsghtliness by ten. / don't want riches,
dear. l only want a modest assurance
that can have enough to live on.
Really is your way of doing a guaran-
tee of even bread and butter? In the
garden of Eden you would be the most
delightful of companions, but in this
world as 1t is you will not fight for your
own. You would risk your life to save a
dog. but you couldn't stay at a continued
grind-I mean It would kill you actually,
physically dead. dead-to save all of us.
At first thought that a fault in you. but
now. being older. having compared you to
other men, I see it is merely a missing
faculty.
I could stick to the desk and would
gladly If you would let me, yet 1 could
not even fancy behaving as you did at
the factory fire, which is still the symbol
In the town for manly courage and pres
ence of mind.
They talk now of the way you laughed
and Joked with those poor frightened girls,

figured it all out. The old wash cut at
right angles to the creek, and at the
turn was where its freight of yellow
metal should have been deposited, but
when you got down to the bedrock the
blasted stuff was either slanted so
nothing could stay on it or was rotten,
crumbling in your fingers, and that
kind of bed will hold nothing.
Therefore Jim had sunk about fifty
prospect holes, got colors under the
grass roots as evidence that pay
should be there and nothing but ashy
wash beneath it.
When a man is alone and thinks
things are wrong optimism comes
down on the run, the shades of pessi-
mism gather fast and furious. more
especially if a man does his own cook

that.
The sun had not moved the shadows
three inches before Jim had reached
the conclusion that this world was all

that no sensible man would even laugh
