VISITED MACCOSHAMS

Last Mnoday some of the friends
of e,-r. and Mrs. H. D. MacCosham
were here from their former home at
Watertown, S. D., on their way to
Jackson Holt 1t was F. L. Bramble
and Edward Munson, and Mr.. Mum
sen remembered the town very we'll
IS it looked in 1900 when he out
fitted here for trip to Yellowstone
park. He went about looking at the
changes due to growth of the town
in the past fourteen years, and was
full of big surprises. He was one
of the former bank examiners of his
state, and when he visited the banks
of Blackfoot he marveled at the
growth of financial institutions of
a western village. When he was
here before there was but one bank
and it was doing only a little bust
ness.
Mr.. Bramble's father and his part
ner, Mr.. Miner, used to freight out
of Blackfoot about thirty-fve years
ago, and the son enjoyed looking over
the place he had heard his father
talk so much about. Both gentle
men enjoyed their visit to Idaho,
to Blackfoot and to the MacCosham
home.

BOYS AND GIRLS DESIRE WORK

Commencing with Saturday, Oc-
tober II, there will be no school for
one week. There are dozens of Black
foot boys and girls who desire en-
ployment in the fields or in the homes
for this week. The farmers who
need help in the potato fields can
secure such by making application
either oral or written to the super
intendent of schools. There are
more than an hundred young people
who have signed up for work already
and this number will be doubled by
the end of next week. Many of them
have already had experience in this
sort of work and will give efficient
service.
Make your application early either
for work in the fields or about the
homes here in town.
