THE PLUGGED QUARTER.

For twenty-five years Guy Flenner
managing editor of the Statesman
has been connected with the destinies
of that publication-always and in
in such manner as to be attached to
the payroll-and his co-workers COM
menorated the event few nights ago
in a little spread in his honor, and
by the issuance of miniature news
paper termed "The Plugged Quarter
playing upon his quarter of a cen
fury of newspaper activity. 1t was
filled with good things-not particul-
arly the quarter of century, but
the paper and the expressions, hob
bies and ideas of the genial manag
ing editor were grilled.
Flenner has done good work on
the Statesman. That is why he is
there. At least he has been able to
impress upon the management that
he was indispensable, and that is a
talent in itself, and when Guy is not
full of theories and other things, he
generally has room for considerable
talent.
Twenty-Five years on the job is a
good record-if it is not penal rec
ord-though, at times, the exacting
grind of the newspaper office has
remarkable similarity. Flenner has
witnessed a good many changes in
Idaho in that period, and from the
days of cutting cross-lots, either
homeward or in argument, he has ar
rived at his silver jubilee with a
full consciousness that stone and
lumber make fellow go around
nearly as much as do political
bricks and bouquets.
And in that period he has been a
factor for development and progress
and has made newspaper. The
making may not at all times have
been set to music and posies, and he
may have few bumps from the
boulders that we're SHE'D through
the windows, or otherwise encounter
ed along the blithesome and sunny
newspaper path.
If he has grown fat it is because
nature put one over on him, as the
process of spelling copy paper for
two and half decades is more often
productive of cutting down extra It's
sue than anything else, and daily
paper is frequently discouraging to
fat, either financial or anatomical.
With twenty-five years of dynamic
effort to go on, we extend to him
the hand of congratulation in getting
away with it. Knowing the hard
work, some sacrifice and thwarted
hope to be encountered, nevertheless
there is joy and everyday pleasure
in the task, and with optimism in all
things may his golden anniversary
dawn with the fullness of accomplish
ment for honest endeavor and I'M
swerving policy employed in impress
ing the untutored proletariat that he
is always right, whether he side
tracks a position, or coddles it.
He has earned fishing trip, with
good luck and themidor accompani-

Where the treatment has been
properly followed about 80 per

The chloride Of lime treatment
is relatively expensive and can
not be applied without some la
Dor. However, the results JUST

effort.
A kerosene treatment will also
kill the fly massot. About one
quart of kerosene to bushel of
manure should be used. The oil
must be thoroughly washed
down into the manure pile. 1t

Both chloride Of lime and kerr

spraying them upon the manure

COMMENCEMENT PROGRAMME

COMMENCEMENT 1hOOhAMME.
Blackfoot High School is preparing
for a week of programs and enter
tainments.
The following is the list of attrac-
lions for the next two weeks of
school. 1t has been thought best to
place all of the entertainments to-
ward the very last of school so as to
interfere with the regular work as
little as possible.
On May 14th, the first section of
the senior class will give their ora
tions. This year the type of Grafton
is distinct departure from all
former years. The subjects involve
demonstrations and experiments,
songs, illustrated talks and discuss
ions of practical subjects instead Of
set, trite orations of the old type.
The program below will be given
in the High School Auditorium COM
mencing at eight thirty O'Clock. An
admission fee of ten cents will be
charged to each of the regular COM
mencement exercises in order to help
the seniors pay expenses of the COM
mencement speakers, programs and
the like.

Music.
On Thursday evening May 18th, the
High School chorus assisted with
great number of the best singers of
the city will give the beautiful little
Operetta 1.-THE Princess Bonnie.
This is the most difficult thing in
the way of an entertainment that the
Blackfoot school have ever attempt
ed. To say that it is out of the ordi-
nary in the way of musical enter
tainment is putting it mildly. Seats
will be reserved for this play at the
Modern Pharmacy. The proceeds
will go toward paying for the new
piano which was placed in the Audi
torium during the year.
Sunday May 18th will be the
regular class Day sermon. This will
also be given at the Auditorium. DR..
Henry H. Meyer of New York City,
will give the address. All the church
es of the city will be asked to join in
this service. It will begin promptly
at 1900.
