MANY BABIES IN THE SPOTLIGHT


Well, yes, the babies of Bonnern
Ferry are the center of attraction
this week. Of course, the sun
rises and sets for all fond mothers
in the doings and sayings of THE
baby, but this week there is little
more than the usual interest shown
in the little folks, on account of
the lively contest that is on at the
Utopia theatre.
Last week the management of
this popular amusement place,
inaugurated a baby contest, and all
this week the voting has been
spirited. Pictures were taken of a
host of youngsters under six years
of age, and the contest started by
showing these as still pictures.
Then after FIVE days, the 100 babies
having the highest scores were
taken in motion pictures which are
now being used. Naturally we are
all proud of our Boomers Ferrv
babies, but when pictures of a
large number of them are thrown
on the screen before one it is a
revelation to see how bright, intel
ligent, sturdy and pretty they all
are. There would be some mighty
high scores made in a eugenics
contest. Many of the pictures are
comical, all of them are interesting
and EXPLANATIONS of delight and
pleasure are constantly heard
throughout the audience as one
youngster after another flashes onto
the screen.
Each admission ticket entities
one to two votes. At the end of
the Today contest the winning
| b b y will receive prize
of $50 in cash and a gold locket
and chain for the mother. The
second prize of $40 in cash, and
fourth to tenth each a solid gold
ring,
In addition to the baby pictures,
moving pictures of various scenes
in and about the city have also
been shown, and the local views
always arouse great interest and
amusement. These features have
been in addition to the regular run
of films.

FIRST GAME FOR
SUNDAY NEXT
Baseball Season Opens With Contest
Between Locals and Priest
River Club
PROSPECTS GOOD FOR STIFF GAME
Many New Players in Bonners Ferry's
Team, But All Play Good Ball

The baseball fans of Boomers
Ferry will have their ardor reused
to fever heat for the first time this
year on Sunday next, when the
opening game of the season will be
played. AT that time the local
team will cross bats with Fiest
aggregation from Priest River.
The news that Sits this way from
the priestly bunch on the holy
river is to the effect that the astute
Fiest has collected an aggregation
of star players and is coming to
our little city prepared and deter
mined to trounce the local expo
nents of the great American game.
That is laudable ambition for
FEST but before he retires to his
wigwam with the scalps of our nine
braves dangling from his belt, he
will have to put up some very stiff
ball playing there is a we'll
defined opinion among the local
fans that Fiest;s ambition will not
be realized in this instance. They
are determined that if there is to
be any dangling of scalps, the
said scalps shall adorn the belts of
the Boomers Ferry scouts.
Many new players are on the
local lineup and are showing the
class. Manager Peterson has Sc
cured Coins and Barber to do the
battery work. Both are new men
and with Saunders, Peterson,
DeWolfe and Bruce the infeld
presents a major league appear
ance. In the out6eld Gay, Hol-
CERT and Fleming can be depended
on to gather in the high flies.
Carlson, first sacker, and Dunkel
outfelder, of last year team, will
probably be used in the utility role
as both are considered consistent
hitters. Yeakes, a catcher, will
also be in part of the game,
This is the time of the year
when your support counts for the
most, so plan to see this opening
game. The local association i:
planning to give us this season
some very neat and interesting
exhibitions of baseball, and they
should have the united support o.
the community.
The game will be called at 800
p. m. sharp. Get your booste
button and Join the crowd. Eagl,
Park grounds.

NO BOOM FOR
PRESIDENCY
Senator Berah Believes Work at WASH
ington Would Be Hampered BY
Presidential Boom.
PLENTY OF SUPPORT FOR HAINES
The Governor Has Made Good in Solv-
ing State Problems.

Boise, April %. - Especial to the
Herald) There were two interest
ing developments during the past
week. One was the request of Sena-
tor Borah that his friends in Idaho
do not at this time institute for him
a.boom for the presidential nominal
ton. Mr.. Borah says that it would
interfere with his work in Wash
ington, and his plans for the re-
uniting of the Republican party.
The wisdom of such a request on
the part of Mr.. Borah will be rec
ognized on the part Of all his
friends, although this does not
mean that their ardor will in any
way be dampened, or that they
will he any less anxious for his
future success. In fact, It may be
taken that all Idaho is for Borah
for president. but it is perhaps best
that in his own state, for the pres
ent at least, the sentiment be kept
under cover, or at least not formal
ly launched, because Perkins and
other enemies of Borah would as
cribe the activities in Idaho as
Borah's own instigation.
As heretofore pointed out, Borah
seems the least conscious man In
country OF the great interest that IS
being manifested in him as presi-
Dental possibility. Borah is sim
ply performing great work, not
only for his party and for the
West, but for the entire country,
He is doing this without any
thought of political favors, but
nevertheless it is creating talk of
Rorah for president all over the
country, and this talk Is even more
pronounced in the East than in the
West. The great journals of the
East not only look upon Borah as
a possibility but as probability.
tits pointed opt that it will require
a Republican OF Progressive ten
denotes to lead the party In the
next campaign, and that Borah
fills the bill better than any other
man In the country. In fact the
contest is necessarily narrowed
down when you speak of a Repub.
lican of Progressive tendencies, al
q national leader, in 1916. 1t is
conceded that Borah occupies 6
stronger position today than any
other Republican possibility, in
Guiding LaFollette, Cummings and
Reveridge. The Republicans are
therefore willing to forego the
pleasure of formally launching the
Borah for President boom, but they
will have the Senator interests in
mind at all times, and be ready tC
spring to his standard when the
proper time arrives.
Looks Sure for Governor Haines.
A second event of more thar
passing Importance is the appear
apce of additional evidence tina
Governor Haines will not have any
strenuous opposition. Is was rum
ored short time ago that Senate
Borah was opposed to Governo
Haines. This political rumo
seems to have gone a glimmerini
from the fact that some of tn
staunchest friends of Borah in tn
state are openly and actively ad
vocating the denomination of Gov
ernor Haines. Among these ar
Senator John J. Hart, the we
known southeastern leader, an
Col. E. H. Dewey, whose nam
has been prominently mentioned !

connection with the governorship
and with that OF United States
Senator. Both OF these leaders
have announced their unqualified
support OF Governor Hainss, while
from every portion of the state
comes reassuring evidence of the
confidence that the party has in
the Governor.

HENDRIX DEFEATS HFNDERSON-BR IN SLUCCINC MATCH. I2-7 HOUSTON, WHO PITCHED FRI DAY, DISPLAYS ARTISTIC
 ABILITY.

Arkadelphia, May 18.-Hendrix de feated Henderson Brown here Satur- day in the last game of the champion- ship series by the score of l2 to z. The game was a swatfest from the be ginning. Coach Mauldin sent Pitcher Kent to the mound for the Reddies, but withdrew the big fellow when he allowed four hits, one home run. Muller, who pitched Friday, took the McQuistion, who won the game for the visitors Friday, relieved Owen in the box at the end of the second in l ming, after six Reddies had crossed the pan, and displayed much ability as an extra-inning pitcher.
 Both teams began scoring in the first inning. J. Legg flied out to Kent. D. Legg hit for a home run. Cook hit to left field for three bases and scored on 4oung's two-bagger to deep center. Hutchinson hit to right field for two bases. Owen struck out. Fulmer grounded out from Bradley to Turner.
 Hendrix scored again in the fourth and fifth, making pair on hits and errors. They added two more in the seventh in a similar manner. It was in the eighth inning that the Bulldogs sewed up the game. The Reddies were one run to the good until this frame. With fusiilate of hits, some stolen bases and brace of errors, the visitors tailed five times, enough to win. HendriX's 6nal count came in the ninth.
 Henderson began hard in the first. when Brown hit for two bases in the i first inning and scored on CroswelPs two-bate hit. Croswel scored from second on Bradley's two-base drive. Bradley stole third and scored when Norris drove hot one through Owen.
 Henderson scored three more in the second. Muller singled, Watson hit to left. Muller scored from third. He stole and came home on a wild throw. Brown then rolled to third and was safe on Hutchinson's bad peg. Brad ley singled, scoring Watson and ! Brown.
 Henderson made their last count in the fourth inning. Croswell, the Red die shortstop, got a three-base hit and scored on Bradley's sacrifice
