GIRLS HEROISM
Mariory Brewer, 9-Year-Old, Carries
Two Little Ones from a Burn

Sturgis, March Through the
heroism of 9-year-old Marjory Brew
err, the lives of the two small children
of Mr.. and Mrs. f. NJ. Thompson
were saved when their residence just
west of Lantry, in Ziebach county,
was destroyed by a fire that also on
sumed the pumping station.
The Thompsons were in the coun-
try and left the little Brewer girl in
charge of their children. The child
attempted to hasten a fire with some
gasoline and an explosion resulted.
Her clothing ignited and she rushed
into the snow. rolling in it and tear
ing off her clothes. Although suf-
fering acutely from her burns, she
returned into the burning house,
then like a seething furnace, and
brought both children to safety. On
account of the heavy snow a physi-
clan was unable to reach her TO at
tend her injuries for two days after
the fire, but she was brought 10 Du-

AT every session a lot of little APP
preparation bills come in ranging
from 800 down, and If some means
could be devised to meet these in
some other way than by special APP
preparations. it would spell a large
saving to the state. 1t is estimated
that it costs from $50 to $3.50 to
pass a law according to the amount
OF time taken in discussion in com
mittees and on the floor, and to ex-
pend that amount to allow an ac-
count of less than 500 is not an
economical method. One bill in this
session appropriates So. 1t costs
more than that amount to print the
bill, and the roll calls of the two
houses, without considering the other
expense attached.

been of the highest order. In the past
five years the Idaho squad has sent It's
old rival w. S. C. down to defeat three
times and has given Idaho teams Ill

tions in baseball and basketball. In
the latter sport the squad last year tied
with Washington, it being necessary to
nlay the tie off at Pullman for the
Northwest conference championship.
Griffith came to Idaho thirteen years
ago and after five years service he was
called as coach at the University OF
