soap water to which some glycerine
has been added are even more at
tractive, because they have such pref
ty colors.
There are many ways Of making
bubbles. For instance, smoke may be
blown through the pipe into the bub-
bles or one bubble may be blown
inside of another. Very large bub-
bles can be made by using the hands
instead of a pipe. Cover the hands
we'll with suds and then hold them
so as to form a cup, as II drinking
with the hands from spring, but
leaving small hole in the bottom.
With the mouth about a foot from the
hands, blow n current of air into
them. Some of the bubbles will be
more than foot in diameter. Try
this experiment the next time you
wash your hands.

INTEREST IN SOAP BUBBLES
Those Made Of Soap Water to Which
Glycerine Has Been Added
Are Quite Attractive.

Have you ever stopped TO think
what really interesting thing soap
bubble is? Soap bubbles are not only
interesting to boys and girls. but they
have long been a source of wonder
and interest TO men of science In
fact, scientists have employed soap
bubbles in trying TO perform certain
experiments.
A soap bubble is nothing more than
film of water molecules (tiny par
ticles that cannot be seen with the
naked eye), held together by the
sticking power of dissolved soap. As
most all of us know, in making bub-
bles the bowl of a common clay pipe
Is dipped into soapy water. The bub.
BILE maker blows air into the pipe
and the bubble at once expands.
While bubbles made of plain soap
water are interesting, those made OF

AN EXHIBIT FOR
MOUNTAIN Home.
An Opportunity is Presented that Will Give
This Section Valuable Publicity
Without Cost.

Plans are under way for a little
publicity that will undoubtedly be the
means of affording some of the best
sort of advertising for Mountain
Home and vicinity. 1t so happens
that this community plays lucky on
the matter. Some time ago the Poe
atello Commercial Club succeeded in
perfecting arrangements with the
Short Line whereby a permanent ex-
hibit of products of that country will
be placed In booths that have been
built under the viaduct in Pocatello.
1t was the original intention to
make the exhibit wholly and solely
a Bannock county institution, and
therein Is where Mountain Home
plays exceedingly fortunate. Through
the circumstance that former Cover
nor Brady and other Pocatello men
are financially interested in this sec
tion of the state the concession was
granted this community to place an
exhibit in the general display, and
1t will be the only community in the
state, outside of Bannock county,
that will be permitted to show such a
display, and, as stated, it is through
the efforts of Gov. Brady that this
is brought about. A representative
was here for the major portion of
the week talking with local CONNER
cial club people and others, on the
basis of getting up the exhibit for
Mountain Home and met with the

VIII be made to see that this section
Is properly taken care Of Every ex
hibit will be properly labelled and
identified. This Is without cost Other
than express charges from here to

manifest. Thousands of people pass

cannot afford to overlook, and must
not be overlooked. Pocatello be-

has been suggested that meeting Of
the Commercial club be called for the
latter part of next week and a sort
Of "get-together" session held. The
time is opportune and would be the
means of cementing the relations Of
the community in good shape and the
great project of boosting and further

will be advanced in healthy manner.
1t is practical boosting A good many
