BELL
COMING west

The old Liberty Bell is coming
west this summer, and will be at Po-
catello 20 minutes Sunday evening,
July IL, from to $3.50, and win be
lon exhibit on an open fiat car. 1t
costs the City of Philadelphia $72,-
900 to take the old bell on the trip
to the Pacific coast 1t will travel
by special train accompanied by some
notable people and will be under
guard every minute of the time II
is gone.
The bell was made in the old
country long before the Revolution
ary war, and bore the inscription,
Proclaim liberty throughout all the
land to the inhabitants thereof" /"
When the Declaration of Independ-
ence avs adopted the bell proclaimed
it. The old man who acted as sex
ton and rang it, lived until Cronwal-
lis surrendered at Yorktown five
years later, and died of joy when a
messenger rode into town and shout
ed along the streets that CORVALLIS
had surrendered.

MAIL CARRIER BUYS AUTO

Grant Holt, the carrier of mails
on rural route three, has purchased
a Ford car for use on his route. He
had been driving a horse for many
years, and it took most of the day
to make the round trip. Now he
goes his rounds and gets back in
time for dinner The first day he
used the car he figuratively met him
self coming back, he was SO much
earlier.
If the department finds out that
he has half day for himself now
they may cut his wages or give him
more territory or discharge some
other carrier and give Mr.. Holt two
routes at double pay. A man faces
all kinds of risks when he forges
ahead and makes improvements or
gives better service in this sordid
world.

ROAD TO AMERICAN FALLS

1t is generally consid red that the
shortest road between American
Falls and Blackfoot lies via Pingree
and Aberdeen, but S. ]. Rich recent
ly made the trip that way and back
via Pocatello, registering the dis
tance both ways, and found it several
miles nearer to go by Pocatello That
seems to take person quite dis
tance out of the way, but the other
road covers many angles due to fol-
lowing section lines, and it goes
somewhat out of the direct line to
get to Aberdeen.

BACK FROM THE EAST


j. H. Early and wife returned the
last of the week from four weeks
visit in Wisconsin, Michigan and Ill,
ionis. Mr.. Early's daughter, Miss
Margaret, returned with them AMI
will make her home at Blackfoot.,
In speaking of his trip Mr.. Early
said the conditions In the places visit
ed appealed to him most where he
observed their homes and how they
beautify them. Where people are
we'll established and have good clean
cities with asphalt paving, and per-
manent means of keeping everything
neat and clean, and are putting a
little spare money all the time into
roses and shrubs and flowers and
giving them due care, the communi-
ties seem almost perfect.
The one industry that impressed
him most was the manufacture of
automobiles. He visited several fac
tories, the largest one being that of
the Fcrds at Detroit. He says they
have moving picture show on the
grounds where they spend all their
time showing people the factory on
canvas. After seeing it that way the
men are taken through the factory
or factories in groups Of so. Women
are not permitted to make this trip,
the reason assigned being that near
ly all of the employees are men, and
most men look up from their work
when women are passing. With 49,
500 men at work and each one doing
some very exacting part, it is SER
ious interruption to have punches Of
women passing. The factory is a
bowling, screeching myriad of ma
chimes operating at high pressure,
and everything in wonderful system.
Every car is put together and
tested in the factory. The frame
starts out on long trip, drawn by
an endless chain, and it passes be-
tween two rows of men for about half
a mile, and each man as it passes
him, adds some part to it or tightens
a screw or bolt, and it finally re-
ceives gasoline and driver and
starts on its own power and goes
few hundred feet as a test. When
the finish or paint is dry it goes to
the warehouse from which shipment
Is made. When Mr.. Early entered
the warehouse he observed that it
was SOD feet wide and 1000 feet
long, six stories high and there was
a string of 26 freight cars lined up
on each side being loaded with Ford
cars
Fords make a car every two
minutes, and some joker says they
are not filling the full measure of
their opportunity there is a
sucker born every minute and half
Of the market is going to waste. The
Ford factory employs 10000 people,
500 of whom are women, and it
shares its profits with its employees
who have clear record for doing
their best. Ford says this system
appeals to employees SO strongly that
le has been able to use many ex-con-
Victs and they usually make good in
! marked degree. He thinks that
when the prisons of the world are
conducted on such plan they will
really reform and restore the fallen
% their natural estate.

ed by the council. They then ap-
pointed The Blackfoot Optimist to
do the publishing for the rest of the
term at 25 cents an inch. The Re-
publican had been doing the publish
ing free since the spring election,
acting under an agreement which
the council set aside because neither
party to the agreement would sign a
contract that was framed by the
other.
d. H. Biethan asked permission to
erect stucco iliing opposite The
City Hall, and this was refused by
the council because it was not con-
sidered fireproof.
A question arose as to whether the
front of Mr.. Biethan's new building
on Pacific street would be fire proof
if made of stucco, steel lathing nail
ed to wood and an inch of cement
plaster on the front. Mr.. Biethan
was there and explained that the
whole front would be glass excepting
where the partitions joined and there
would be strip of stucco, and then
the pannel or finish at the top above
the roof would be stucco. The coun-
Gil talked it over for some time and
left the matter in uncertainty.
Mr.. Pelkey asked to have some of
Stout avenue included in the sprink-
ling, and this was discussed and
dropped, most of the council being
in favor of sprinkling we'll so far as
they sprinkle at all.

others did not say anything. They
decided to have the clerk make out

claimants so they can get their

Clark Proud of the Congress.

Washington, March 4. -Speaker
Clark issued a statement tonight brief
ly reviewing the work of the Sixty
third Congress-, which, he said,
would go down in history as one of
the greatest and most remarkable of
all congresses because it put on the
books more constructive Legislation
>apd was in session more days than
any Other. The statement added:
''The President has managed SO
fal, under very difficult circum-
stances, to keep the country out of
war, which would be the greatest
calamity that could happen. Let us
hope he will succeed in keeping US
out in the critical circumstances with
which we find ourselves living.
1T seems to me that every good
citizen, without regard to politics,
will indorse him in his efforts to keep
us out of war, and his efforts to main
tain neutrality. Taking all in all the
administration and the Congress have
done vast amount Of good work.
On it we appeal confidently to the
country.
