The six young men from the uni

writing, succeeded in answering the
1872 difficult questions to the entire
satisfaction of the court and we're

neys and counsellors at law to prac-
tice before any court in the state Of
Idaho. The oath was administered
shortly before noon on Tuesday by the
clerk of the court, and today the sue
cessful contestants are receiving the
congratulations of their friends.
That the record made by this class
was enviable is indicated by the un-
precedentedly complimentary speech
made by Chief Justice Sullivan in an
nouncing the result of the examina-
tions. He said that the papers were
by far the best so far submitted and
that the work as a whole was eXcep-
tionally creditable.
Those who are now full-f1edged
lawyers are Charles E., Horning, OF
Grangeville; John l.. Phillips of Lew
iston John McEWers of Grangevi!le,
George Donart of Cambridge; Arthur
L. Heer of Silver City; and Isaac Nc
Dougall of Pocatello. With the eX
ception of one man, all of the class
had had from one to four years of
college work.
Mr.. Donart left at once for his home
in Cambridge, but the remainder OF
the class will continue their studies
and receive their degrees from the
in June.

WOULD CHANGE THE TIME

A plan, regarded by many as an in
sidious device to get us up earlier i'll
the morning, was proposed today by
j. N. Nankervis who wants to have
all our clocks turned forward one
hour. He claims every advantage for
the plan, and that no valid objection
to it exists The purpose of the
scheme is to give us the use OF an
other hour of daylight during the sanl-
mer, and to provide more time for
recreation in the long summer twi-
light.

LOYAL CITIZENS
IMPROVE HIGHW WAY
C.B. GREEN AND B. T. BYRNS TAKE
INITIATIVE in IMPROVEMENTS
ON PUBLIC ROADS
Is Fine Example For Others to Fol-
IOw-Use Teams and King Drag to
Get the Desired Results

Good citizenship and fine public spir-
it we're splendidly exemplified yester-
day in the work of C. B. Green and
r. T. Byrns, who, with an excellent
equipment, spent the whole OF yester-
day from eight in the morning until
six at night in working arduously to
improve the road leading from South
Main street to the country. This hill
and the road beyond have been re-
proach for years, and the experiments
made upon it in the past have not re-
suited in a creditable highway ade-
ouate to the great volume OF traHlc
that annually enters and leaves Mos
COW by that route.
Recently labor and teams were con-
tributed by farmers and citizens, and
the hill was cut down to point where
the grade was rendered sufficiently
easy for ordinary travel Yesterday
the finishing touches were put upon
the work begun Mr.. Byrns supplied
three teams and two men, the city
furnished King drag, and with these
Mr. Byrns and Mr.. Green worked the
whole day. The result is an excellent
highway.
Mr.. Green took load of rocks and
sand to fill in some holes that have
been the cause Of grief to many driv-
ers, and he is enthusiastic over the
great benefits instantly apparent from
the work done yesterday.

PARIS, March 20.-(By Mail to New
York)-Paris has just adopted addi-
tional regulations for the conduct of
Parisians when the Zeppelins come"
First of all, the Parsians are to be
warned. The moment the military au
thorities know of a raid is on way,
the firemen and the city guards will
pass through the streets blowing
bugles. II the bugles blow in the day
time, everybody outside will immed-
lately get inside and stay there till
the "zepps' leave. School teachers
especially will see to it that they get
the children into the school houses
and then conduct them safely home
when the trouble is over.
If the raid comes at night, everybody
already being inside as required by
earlier regulations, they will merely
put out any lights that may still be
burning and go to bed.
How these new regulations will
work out has already been demon
strated. The test was made at the
suburb of Neuilly on the outskirts of
Paris. The bugles blew at 10 o'clock
at night.
Instantly, every lamp that was ex-
tinguished was at once relighted. Eve
ry door and window that was shut was
opened, and as no one was
on the streets the moment the bugle
blew, everyone got there as soon as
possible. They wanted to see tho
'zepps" and were horribly disappoint-
ed when told that there weren't any,
and also that they'll be pinched if they
1idn't go back in their houses at once,
shut the doors and windows put the
lights out, and go to bed.
Paris is curiously awaiting a new
lct of regulations.
