An animal party Is an amusing game
for the evening. You must prepare
a list of different animals, writing each
clearly in line by itself and number
them according to the number OF
guests. You must also have small
slips Of paper, numbered to correspond
with the list Of animals. These slirs
must be folded so that the numbers 40
not show and put In a bowl. To each
person are given large sheet Of brown
wrapping paper and a colored crayon
pencil, and then the slips are drawn
Zach unfolds the slip drawn and refei
to the list Of animals, which should

for the corresponding number. About
ten minutes are allowed for the draw
ings, when they are passed In, each
drawing bearing the number. but no
name. The drawings are then pinned
up and the judgment is passed.
Every one casts vote The number
Of the one who gains most Is then call
ed out. and the person whose slip cor
responds to that number receives o
prize. Such an entertainment will fur

good plan to follow a conserva-

The change in tariff duties, the
new currency law and the
change in administration is
bound to have a somewhat dis
quieting effect on business, par
ticularly in the West. If every
body would face the situation
calmly, and just be a little care
full, all possibility of a panic
could be avoided. 1t is not,

son going into a new locality
will display more interest and
energy than one to whom all the
surroundings and conditions,
resources and opportunities
have become an old story. But
we believe that there 10 better
was of accomplishing the desired
result. That way Is through
education. Education along any
line Of work adds zest and inter-
est. We love to do the things
in which we excel. Education
teaches how to do things sue
cessfully, and success is the
greatest stimulus we can have.
We must get out of the easy-go-
ing slip-shod methods into which
we have drifted. We must be
woke up, and made to realize
the condition. We must have
the majority of our young and
middIe-aged farmers in our
Agricultural College. They must
be taught the advanced methods
in agriculture. and sent out to
complete the work that their
fathers so nobly commenced.
This Is what The Record is try
ing to do. and while 1t is not
pleasant to a sleepy person to
be shook and awakened from a
comfortable nap, 1t Is some
times necessary.
Wake up! Attend your school!
Get all the knowledge you can of
the best and most necessary
occupation extant. and then 20
to work. If you have boys, take
them with you and teach them to
take the treasures from nature
that she holds in store for ths
intelligent and willing worker.
J And you men, who have Sc
cured title to a large acreage Of
unimproved land--don't act the
dog in the manger! Give the
boys a show. Let them cult
vate a portion of it for a share
of the land. on such terms as
will be equitable and fair. You
will both be better of for the
exchange. and it will give the
country a chance to develop and
improve.
Let's all pull together for the
upbuilding of Iron county along
the lines herein indicated. Rail.
roads, factories and mills will
speedily follow.

1.-THE OLD OAKEN BUCKET.

Here is the latest revision of
the noted pastoral classic, "The
Old Oaken Bucket" which is
going the rounds of the country
press:
How dear to our heart is the
steady subscriber
Who pays in advance at the
birth of each year.
Who lays down the money and
does 1t quite gladly,
And casts round the office a
halo of cheer.
He never says. "Stop it; can
not afford it;
Pm getting more papers now
than can read"
But always says. "Send it,. our
people all like it.
In fact we all think it a help
and a need"
How welcome his check when
1t reaches our sanctum.
How it makes our pulse throb,
how it makes our hearts dance.
We outwardly thank him, we
inwardly bless him
The steady subscriber who pays
in advance.

CLEAR UP THE LAND

From the Washington county
line on the south, to the Beaver
county line on the north, or ex-
tending the entire length OF
Iron county. with few If any
Interruptions, is a strip of agri-
cultural land several miles in
width. that will compare favor
ably with the soil of any coun-
try on the globe. A majority Of
this land is admirably adapted
for arid farm methods, and with
intelligent and energetic treat
ment will yield paying crops of
wheat, rye, corn, potatoes, al
falfa. and other products without
any irrigation whatever.
Most Of this land has either
been filed on or has been pur-
chased from the State Land
Board Less than one-tenth of
it, principally in the vicinity of
the settlements of the county,
has been brought under cultiva-
ton. and that mostly with the
aid of irrigation. From this
meagre acreage not enough
wheat is produced to bread the
inhabitants. and we are annually
importing many tons of flour
from the country to the north of
US. much of it coming from
Idaho.
On the streets of Cedar City
and we presume every other
town of the county. are num-
bers of unemployed young men.

other, places of amusement az
the towns afford. sleigh riding
or perhaps patronizing the boot

of their time to keep in pocket
money. and good clothes on
their backs. They are not saw
ing cent, or accommodating any
property. They are merely ex-
listing. and seem to be fully con-
verted to the wisdom of the
Scriptures which says, Take
no thought of the morrow, what
we shall eat or what We shall
wear" etc. Probably the most
of these young men are single
"a number are married and
have the responsibility of fami-
lies. Why is this so?
Out in the valley are thous-
ands and thousands of acres of
unimproved land which would
furnish splendid homes for
thousands of people. were it
only utilized. Whose fault is it
that such conditions are allowed
to maintain here? Who estab-
lished the precedent of working
only as many months or weeks
as was absolutely necessary to
produce the necessities of life.
and then stopping there? Ger

settlers, the women, for the
Good Lord witness they do their
full share. 1t is truly said.
MAN works from sun to sun

is never done"
Was rhe fault with the early
settlers. who made the roads,
builded the bridges and killed
the snakes? We can scarcely
think so. for under the condi-
tions that maintained in those
early days we are convinced that
it required about $40 days work
in the year to keep the wolf of
starvation and nakedness from
the door and to provide shelter
for the family. Then. when did
this thief of procrastination and
indifference creep into our
midst. 1t is here. and there is
no use denying it. Now. how
are we going to get rid of it.

TAPES that are really practical
~ are those made in three-quarter
length, we'll fitted about the shout
ders and full about the bottom. They
are roomy, without being cumber-
some, and they are comfortable. But
the cape, plain and simple, is not as
we'll liked for general wear as the
capelike jacket and those combina-
lions of cape and coat or cape and
Jacket, which costume makers have
seized upon for making new effects in
wraps. mn
The long, full cape is an ideal gar
ment for evening year. For this pur-
pose It is developed In many fabrics.
Black velvet, lined with white satin
or brocades, and white silk or satin
draped with black lace make them
selves place OF honor in wraps for
evening or other fun dress. Often
handsome furs In deep collars appear
on these as on other brilliant fabrics
The long cape promises well In the
rich brocades and pushes and en-
broidered silks and crepes 80 well
adapted to 1t, especially in con1unc-
tion with fur used in broad collars or
bands for trimming. For warmth the
lighter fabrics are interlined.

THE THIRD DISTRICT Fedora
TION OF WOMEN'S CLUBS

Gray skies, sodden earth. and drizzl-
ing rains do not conduce to the hol-
iday mood, but rather stimulate an
eagerness for hard work and close APP
plication. For that reason Moscow is
playing the tactful hostess in the
weather she is offering the federated
clubs, because the delegates are here
for sober earnest and not at all for
play. In providing the Third District
with the kind of atmosphere that will
not lure the women from their labors
for chance bit of outdoor pleasure,
Moscow shows an eagerness to pro-
mote as much as possible the true
interests of her guests. Far from
resenting the need of umbrellas and
goloshes, the women should be CRATE
full for the downpour that brings grave
thoughts and solemn countenances.
Like other conventions, the sessions
of the Third District federation serve
an admirable purpose in bringing TO-
gether the residents of various sections
of the state To the wish that the
meetings may observably advance the
excellent work in which club women
are. engaged, we add the hope that not
the least noticeable effect of the gath
ering will be the establishment of in
creasingly cordial relations between
the women from all parts of Idaho.
After all is said and done, friend
ship is the great good and blessing of
uine the friendships of widely scatter
ed citizens the sooner will this com

THE STATESMAN'S CARTOONS AND

son is one in a recent issue of the
Boise Statesman entitled Warming

pitchers, Brady. Hawley, Alexander,

game and making characteristic
prophecies as to what they can do
along the line of putting one over"

series makes the sketch particularly
opportune and the character drawing
is both clever and humorous. The
artist is Mick" Villeneuve of Boise,
whose genuine talent the Statesman
first discovered and whose work I'M
der Statesman encouragement and
patronage has so vastly improved The
cartoon feature of the Statesman COM
pares favorably with that of the best
big papers in the great cities.
Another admirable and metropolitan
feature of the Statesman is its repro
duction of the most interesting photo
graphs depicting local, foreign. and
domestic events The Statesman has
it's own engraving department and
makes its engrayings from the finest
photographs to be had. The |
result is clear and handsome picture,
superior in many respects to what pa
