have been of such a nature that they

MACHINE THAT Is
ALMOST HUMAN

The Bank of Montpelier recently
installed o Burroughs posting ma
chine, which is one of the greatest
mechanical devices of the day. The
machine, which operates by electri-
city, does most everything but talk.
In making up the depositor's state
ment, the machine adds whatever
deposits may have been made, sub
tracts the amount of the checks is
sued, and shows the correct balance
on hand to the depositor's credit.
Should the account be overdrawn
this fact is indicated by the machine
and the correct amount of the over
draft is shown. By the simple press
ing of q button the machine is con-
verted into q regular adding machine.
It is truly wonderful device and
obviates any possibility of a mistake
In q depositor's account. If you will
drop into the bank Harold Toomer
will gladly show you the many wond-
erful things the machine will do.

GEORGETOWN NOTES

Georgetown, Nov. "A Hallow-
cen dance was given at the ward
hall last Friday night. The hall was
appropriately decorated for the oc-
casion, and ghosts were stationed at
the door to greet the people as they
arrived. A large crowd was present
and everybody had a jolly time.
The school is now running in ex-
cellent order, and we believe that we
have one of the best schools in the
county. There are four teachers and
about 40 pupils enrolled, with IA
in the 9Th grade, ard all seem to be
taking deep interest in the work.
Last Saturday Halloween party
was given at the home OF Miss Edra
Dunn. About 20 Of her little friends
gathered at the home and had a most
delightful time. The rooms were
prettily decorated for the occasion.
August Schmid, who was operated
on few weeks ago for appendicitis,
is able to be around again. Mrs. John
A. Ferguson is also at home and is
getting along nicely. She underwent
an operation for appendicitis a few
weeks ago.
The widows of Georgetown were
nicely remembered on Halloween
by number of the girls, who went
among the townspeople and gath red
up lot of goodies y The baskets
were deliveIed before the party, and
the gifts were fully appreciated by
the recipients, At the party game 8
were played end a delicious Hallow-
cen lunch was served. Those who
were so thoughtful as to thus re-
member the widows are Co be COM

than to go about tearing down prop
erty, as most young people do on
Halloween,

But as the public generally
knows, the Short Line is to-
day, and has been for several
years, one of the best paying
railroad systems in the United
States. This fact is proven
by the millions of dollars the
company has expended in Ida
no during the past ten years,
in double-tracking its main
line and constructing branch
lines. And a company that
can afford to do this without
increasing its capital stock,
can well afford To spend $25, :
600 or more, if necessary, in
erecting a suitable passenger
station in Montpelier.
We again say that the time
is ripe for the citizens of Mont
pelier to demand a new pas
senger station and keep on de.
handing it until they get it.

The installation of passen-
ger, express and freight SER
vice between Preston and Salt
Lake, via the Salt Lake, Og-
den & Idaho electric line,
leads US to wonder how long
it will be before this line will
be extended to Montpelier.
That it is within the range of
possibilities and even proba-
bilities, there is no doubt.
That the electric company
proposes to extend it's line
further into Idaho, is evil
denced by the fact that rights
of way have already been Sc
cured to within 20 miles of
Grace. With the electric road
completed to Grace It would
not be a difficult task TO ex-
tend it on into this valley.
And what a pleasure it would
be to board an electric car at
Montpelier and be in Salt Lake
within four or five hours. And
we believe that the day is not
far distant when this can be
done. It would come, too,
sooner than many of US antici-
pate, if the people of Mont
pelier would unite in inviting
the company TO extend it's line
to this city, and make some
effort TO assist the company
in securing a right of way
from the Bear Lake county
line to Montpelier.
The citizens of Preston are
now able to board an electric
car every two hours for Salt
Lake, and with the road ex-
tended to Montpelier, the
citizens here could enjoy the
same advantages. It seems
to us that the proper thing to
do at this time would be for
the mayor and council to get
| i n communication with the
officials of the Salt Lake, Og-
den & Idaho Electric com :
pany, and ascertain what their
plans are for the future, and
extend them cordial invita-
ton to extend the line into
Bear Lake valley.

THE MONTPELIER EXAMINER
PUBLIs HE'D EVERY FRIDAY ny
The Examiner Publishing Co., Ltd.
c. E. WRIGHT, Editor and Manager
Montpelier, Idaho. Nov. S, 1915

Every once in awhile we are
asked the question, 'When is
the Short Line going to build
that new passenger station in
Montpelier" Not being a
prophet, seer or revelator, we
are always unable to answer
the question. But it seems
to us that the time has come
for the citizens of Montpelier
to 'srise en- masse" and de-
mand of the railroad company
that the long looked for and
much needed station should be
erected at once. In proper
tion to the volume of business
done, Montpelier is as much
in need of a new passenger
station a Pocatello was.
When we consider that Mont
pelier is one of the most inn
portant points on the Short
Line system, it is nothing
short of a burning disgrace
that the patrons of the road
at this point are compelled to
put up with such a make-shift
of a depot as we now have.
AS we understand the situa-
tion, the Short Line officials
are not to blame for conditions
that exist here today - the
blame lies with the higher-ups
who reside in New York City.
We believe that there is a way
by which those officials can be
made to act, and that is thru
Idaho's pure food and sanitary
department and the public
utilities commission. That
Pocatello has an elegant new
passenger station today is due
to the fact that the state sani-
tary inspector condemned the
old building, and ordered the
company to abandon it within
a certain time. The result was
the company got busy p. d. q.
So far as accommodations
for the travelling public are
concerned the Montpelier de-
pot is not one whit better than
was the old one at Pocatallo.
The waiting room is nothing
more than a cubby hole, there
are no toilets or lavatories for
public use, the company's en-
ployes are compelled to crowd
each other around when in the
performance of their duties
IN fact there isn't a single
plausible reason why the pre-
sent structure should longer
be used as q depot.
IL the Short Line Railroad
company was in the hands of
a receiver or was barely pay
ing operating expenses there
might be some excuse for its
failure TO provide suitable ac-
commodations for she public
and its employees at this place.
