PARROTTS fine ESTABLISHMENT
Optical Company New Quarters Are
Most Modern.

The Parrott Optical company Is now
located in it's new quarters in the
Bedford building, where its splendid
equipment and modern methods can
be more fully developed. The entire
establishment from the reception
room clear back to the busy workshop
is neat as pin and kept in first-class
order The testing room where the
patients eyes are put through a thor
ough course is large enough to most
perfect conditions for getting proper
light and distance and the splendid
instruments used by DR.. Parrott as
sure perfect results. The workshop
where the lenses are ground was by
all odds the most interesting portion
OF the establishment and The Times
reporter was given a practical DEM
onstration of the methods used in
creating from the few hundred diff
ferent blank lenses the several thou
sand perfected lenses, ready for use
by the patrons of the firm Here
within few hours the broken lens
can be duplicated and thus avoid the
long delay in sending out of the city
to have the prescription filled.

ton. A hearty cooperation and con-
certed action on the part OF all en-

MEMORIAL DAY PROCLAMA-
TION.

Memorial day is made holi-
day by our laws and will be
generally observed as such by
our people. 1t will not be in
appropriate however, for me to
invite public attention to this
day and particularly to the
character Of exercises which
should be observed thereon.
1t is oftentimes referred to-as
the Soldiers Sabbath. 1t is
day set apart on which to pay
honor and respect to the men,
Ory of those heroic men, living
and dead, who in the hour of our
greatest national peril freely Of
fered their lives and honor upon
our country's altar In order that
1t might continue to live. 1t is
a day sanctified by devotion to
duty, to the call of country, to
the highest ideals of patriotic
service. and 1t is, therefore, a
day on which public and private
observances should partake of
religious character; all uuseem-
ly games and noisy sports and
shows which serve to distract
attention from the sacredness
of the occasion should be dis
couraged.
Let us place flowers upon the
graves of the departed, let us
add something of pleasure to
the lives of those Of that grand
army who still remain with us,
and let us seek to inspire in our
children the same patriotic love
of country and devotion to duty
which animated those noble
men of an earlier day.
In witness whereof, have
hereunto set my hand and
caused to be affixed the great
seal of the State of Idaho. Done
at the capitol in Boise, Idaho,
this twenty-second day of May,
A. D. 1913.

BRIDGE QUESTION STILL IN AIR
Grade or Bridge for Rock Greek Agi.
tates Commissioners.

Another session was held last night
in the city council chambers attended
by the county commissioners, the city
council and several interested citi-
zens. The question whether steel
bridges on level with the rim rock
should be put In across Rock creek
or easy grades built was thrashed out
with the commissioners still unde-
cided as to which would prove the
more durable and satisfactory. The
citizens Of Twin Falls for the most
part favor steel bridges and the agi-
tation for grades seems to be mainly
on the grounds Of economy Of up-keep.
No decision was arrived at last night.

FLAG DAY PROCLAMATION.

In the year 1897 there was
formed in this country an or
ganization known as the Amer
ican Flag Association, whose
avOwed purpose was to promote
reverence for the flag of our
country, and to arouse a living
sentiment which would serve to
prevent its desecration when
ever and wherever possible.
The flag Of country is the
visible symbol of its power and
sovereignty, and respect for
country's flag has come,
through centuries of history and
tradition, to symbolic respect
and reverence for that country
itself. Accordingly those of us
who love our country, who have
faith in it's institutions, who ap-
preciate the great power for
good 1t has exercised in the
past, and who hope for it a
grand and glorious future,
should all unite in cultivating
in ourselves and in our chill
dren that sentiment which the
American Flag Association was
organized to promote.
l have the honor, therefore, to
proclaim Saturday, June IA,
1913, as Flag Day, and to re-
commend that every public Of
ficer, every teacher in our
schools, all editors of newspa-
pers, and citizens generally
throughout our State, do every
thing possible to assist in arous-
ing widespread enthusiasm in
providing for the holding of ap-
propriate public exercises and
the general celebration Of this
day.
In witness whereof, l have
hereuntO set my hand and
caused to be affixed the great
seal Of the State of Idaho. Done

San Francisco, May 23-Encased in
a plaster cast, Paul Parker of Napa is
hanging by his neck in hospital here

walked the streets four days with a
broken neck and did not know It, An
examination showed he had a bad
fracture of the sixth cervical vertebra
Only the muscles were holding the
neck In place and movement of one
sixteenth of an inch of the broken
bones probably would have caused
death.
Parker will get we'll unless his ply

hopeful, it is handicapped by condi- tions which do not need to be consid- cred by the defending yachtmen. The question of type and towing locm large in English yachting circles, and much space is being devoted to a discussion of these points. A prominent author ity recently expressed the following views on these subjects:
 Next year, notwithstanding any thing that may be said to the contrary, we consider the contest will proceed in the same groove in which it has run since 1894, that is to say, it will be between extreme vessels.
 .'In these circumstances, Sir Thomas Lipton cannot fail to find himself at great disadvantage. He must build very light vessel and tune her up in British waters, he must then unrig her and lose a lot of valuable time sail ing her across the Atlantic under a jury rig. Tn America she will have to be re-rigged and tuned up again in time for the first match on September 10. 1914, when the great contest will take place.
 With so many obstacles in his way, it is fair to hope his opponents will give him credit for his sportsmanship, and make it as easy for him as pos sible to bring his new Shamrock U the starting line in good trim. They might well assist him by placing no restrictions upon rowing the yacht when the weather makes it difficult for her to sail during her ocean passage. We believe the cup will be defended by yacht of her own waterline length. and it is satisfactory to learn that the member of the New York Yacht club, who are connected with the de- fense of the trophy, are the leading yachtmen of America. So far. there fore, as the actual race and the meas urement rules and ;he sailing rules are concerned, there can be no cause for complaint, for the march will be fair one. The disadvantages to which a challenger is subjected many of which are insuperable in mod err: times so long as the present con- ditions attached to the cup by the New York club prevail-are so num- erous that every yachtman knows that Sir Thanas Lpton has entered upon herculean task

TO LINK THE INLAND
 WATERS WITH CANALS
Atlantic Association Meets to Per
 feet Plans for Big Project

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Nov. IT, Men who are yitaIly interested in the development os waterways through out the entire country. but mainly those in the eastern part of the United States. are gathering in this city to take part in the sixth annual convention of the Atlantic Deeper Waterways association. Tie sessions of the convention will begin tomor- row and continue until Friday. The mornings will be given to business and the afternoons to sightseeing, in- cluAing a trip up the St. Johns river.
 The sessions will be presided over by Governors, congressman. mayors and representatives of boards of trade. maritime ana commercial organiza- tions from many States will take part in the proceedings.
 The association is working for the improvement of harbors and inland waterways throughout a large sec tion of the country, but it's chief ain, is to promote the construction. as a national enterprise, of a clain of ca. nals connecting natural and pro tected waterways along the Atlantic coast. thereby forming a continuous inner navigation route from Boston to Key West. The Cape Cod ship canal and other import links in this proposed waterway are already com pleted or under construction and 1t is hoped that with Government aid the entire project may become an accom- plished fact within the next decade. Addresses and papers will be pre- sented to the convention covering practically every phase of the sub ject by men familiar with the prob lens the undertaking presents
