ANNUAL FIELD DAY

Last Saturday morning found a
jolly and enthusiastic crowd of young
people waiting to board the train for
Shelly, to attend the annual field
day meet of the mutual societies OF
the Blackfoot Stake. A number also
went in autos while others in greater
number came with horse and wagon.
AS Shelly was approached they could
be seen in all direction flocking in
to compete for honors.
Mrs. Carruth was there, for she
has served as secretary and presi-
dent since the inception of the or
ganization nearly ten years ago.
She has asked to be relieved how
ever since the care and training of
four sturdy sons demands all of her
time and attention.

big genial smile and presided at the

BUSINESS MEN MUST HELP THE
BALL TEAM

The Blackfoot business men will
be asked to help the Blackfoot ball
team, 1t will take at least $40O for
the team to stay in the B. B. B.
League and make a creditable show
in. Blackfoot should help the ball
team, because a town that has not
good ball team is considered a
dead one"
OF course, the boys were beat Sun
day, but that does not speel any
thing this early in the season.
Idaho Falls raised $1,000 to put
their team in this league, American
Falls the same amount, Pocatello
has fifty business men signed up to
pay from .$25 to $50 to the ball team
for this season.
Everybody can see from the above
that the Blackfoot people will have
to get busy as we cannot run our
team here on wind and sunshine.
There will be committee appoint
ed to call on the professional and
business men of this town to solicit
funds so that we can go on with the
ball team and at least make a credit
able showing.
Now to everyone helping the ball
team, remember that you are not only
helping the ball team but the town
as well, also the business or pro-
fessionel man is showing that he is
booster for our town.-Contri-
buted.

be cherished as keepsakes by the
winners.
Victors in this contest will jour
ney to Idaho Falls Saturday to COM
pete for Interstate honors of eastern
Idaho, comprising all stake mutuals

The careful observer will note a
great Improvement in the young peo-
pie in the last few years and no
doubt the mutual societies deserve
the greater share of credit. There
is a keener intillect, more culture,
the boys are more manly and the
girls more womanly. While the
improvement in manners and dress
is gratifying. There may have been
cigarette smoking going on but the
writer did not see it if there was.
