PACKING PLANT THE
BASIS OF BIG INDUSTRY

Out across the Snake river west
of Blackfoot, standing almost on the
river bank, is busy little meat
factory. From there to the tables of
all upright hometown citizens come
all the tasty bacon slices and the
smoky ham that goes right we'll with
two fried over" AS a side issue
the plant furnishes ice for the town
refrigerators and ice cream freezers.
The plant is divided into four
sections each representing a special
part of work of preparing meat pro-
ducts; the killing room, refrigerator
rooms, the basement where the cur
ing watts are and the lard and sau-
sape department. All is neat and
clean, and SO arranged that only
few men are required to handle
large output. The heavy carcasses
are hung on trolley, which permits
of their being easily moved from one
room to another.
The smoke room Is also part Of
the institution, but it merely puts on
the finishing touches, adds the saw
Dry smell and taste to the fat hams.
This company ships to points all
over the EASTERN part of Idaho and
along the borders of the neighbor
states. 1t could get more business

The Blackfoot Packing company
is managed by George l.. Stone and

INTERESTING CHALK TALK

Mrs. Maude l.. Greene, the nation
al w. C. T. U. lecturer and crayon
artist returned to Blackfoot last week
to give another of her interest chalk
talks" The lecture was given at the
Methodist chuch, Tuesday evening,
and the attendance, especially of the
children, was good. Mrs. Greene Is
a clear speaker and her illustration,
done with colored chalks on large
squares of paper, add impressiveness
to the points made. She urges par
ents to make the home more attrac-
tive to the young folks; she assails
the cigarette habit with all the evils
of dulness, drink and crime. Only
by pictures could these personal
ethics be brought home to the young
mind. An admission of 10 cents was
charged for the benefit Of the W. e.
T. u workers. of Blackfoot.

SPECIAL EXHIBIT
SURPRISES PARENTS

The school exhibit is so fine and
such success that all agree that
it must be an annual affair. The
usual empty gymnasium is converted
into an extremely attractive art gal
lery, the kind that holds persons
interest for hours and days. The
primary display consisting of writ
ing, furniture, raffea work, wearing,
painting, free hand cutting, nature
studies charcoal and crayon pictures
and other things, is exceptionally
good. The art work is very striking
and it is really miraculous the Won
ders wrought in still-life, landscapes
and nature pictures, by pupils SO
young. Domestic science has obtain
ed firm foot-hold in our schools as
is evidenced not only by the sewing
and canned fruit display of the high
school girls, but by needle work done
by the grade girls.
Perhaps of the entire exhibit the
manual training department is re-
ceiving the most attention and praise
which is beyond a doubt worthy.
There are beautifully finished library
tables, chairs, book cases, cedar
chests, telephone table and chair,
music cabinets, porch swings, an up
holstered leather sofa, bird houses,
desks, library lamp and countless
other pieces of furniture. All the
work is very fine and the boys can
Justly feel proud. To most people
the exhibit was marvel, for little
did they realize what wonderful
things their children really were do
ing.

$25 900 STUDEBAKER
GOLD CHASSIS ON VIEW
Local Distributors Showing Sensation
al Studebal1er Mechanism, Thru q
special Arrangement.


Motorists and others in and around
Idaho Falls who have heard so much
about the famous $4,000 Studebaker
gold chassis will have an opportunity
to see it first hand, as the result Of
a special arrangement between the
Studebaker officials and L. 0. Nay
lor, distributor for Studebaker cars.
The local distributor has been for
tunate enough to get this city on the
circuit for the gold chassis, and will
show it at his salesrooms, May l9
and 20.
Widely proclaimed as the most nov
ell and sensational attraction in the
history of automobile industry, this
precious mechanism has proved a
magnet for crowds everywhere. At
the motor shows in New York, Chi
cago and other cities where it has
been viewed, this $4,000 chassis
drew the largest attendance OF any.
on exhibition. 1t is estimated that
during its 10000 miles of travel more
than 100000 people have viewed
this chassis.
More than 5000 parts of the chas-
sis are finished in pure gold, with
$50 ounces of the precious metal used
for that purpose. Except for the
gold finish, the chassis is standard
in every detail, being six-cylinder
construction. Since first being un-
folded to the New York public, 1T
has been carefully guarded to stop
souvenir hunters from making away
with some of the gold parts, and dur
ing it's travels it has had many mar
row escapes. The chassis was built
at the Studebaker factories in De-
troit, the work of gold finishing be-
ing done by the Yale & Towne Man
ufacturing Company at Stamford,
Conn.
In addition to lighting up and en-
phasizing features of design in the
new Studebaker cars, the gold finish
is intended to symbolic the quality
which is claimed for these automo-
biles. On it's travels the famous chas-
is is, constantly accompanied by a
of the Studebaker Cor
poration. 1t is shipped from point
to point always by express, and holds
the distinction of being the most ex-
pensiye express package" ever hand
led.

FAVOR ALLY LOAN
u. S. Government Not Averse to
Financial Assistance.
Propose Monster Loan to Great
Britain without Security.

Washington, Nov. 21.-It was ad-
mitted at the White House that the
purpose of the secret conference OBJ
tanned by H. P. Dawson, of ]. P. Nor
gan & Co., with President Wilson last
Saturday, concerned another huge
loan TO England and her allies.
Mr.. Dawson, it is said, desired to
learn if this government would ap-
prove such a loan without security.
He is understood TO have repeated the
assertion he made in Chicago two
weeks ago that unless the allies were
given sufficient money to continue the
war successfully the financial equili-
brium of the world would not be
maintained.
President Wilson has made no state
ment concerning the conference, but
individuals who have daily access to
the White House, say he will not OPP
pose the plan State and treasury de-
partment officials are already studying
the situation.
Mr.. Dawson is understood to have
told President Wilson that his recent
Investigations in Europe convinced
him it was not only necessary but safe
to give the allies all the additional
money they need without even a scrap
of paper as security

CANADIANS CHARGE!
Wrest $500 Yard Trench by Heroic
Dash Against Teutons

London, Nov. 21.-Successfu advance
on a front of $500 yards was an
nounced in a Canadian official state
ment today.
ION Saturday morning. the report
asserted, -our guns started a barrage
fire against the trenches opposite the
Canadian positions. Our troops leaped
from the parapet. The German guns
began counter barrage fire, which
was comparatively weak. Our forces
had fewer casualties than could be
expected.
I'VE advanced on a front of $500
yards to a depth of from 200 to
thousand yards. Our whole objective
was quickly consolidated and held ex-
cept for a short stretch near Pys
wood, where knoll proved to be
machine gun nest. Our troops fell
back and established themselves be-
hind the crest.
Even Went 500 Yards Beyond.
There the Germans occupied a
trench. Our artillery cut them off
1--WE exceeded our objective by 500
yards, capturing a section of the
grand court trench, but we withdrew
because it was in too dangerous
salient
Our losses thruout were compare
lively light. We took seventeen Off
GERS and ASP other unwounded pris-
oners and $50 wounded men,"

BLAMES HER "IN-LAW'
Mrs. Charles w. Kelley Asks Divorce
and Alimony From Husband.

Knocking the IL" out of Kelley
matrimonial ventures in Topeka seems
to be the favorite indoor sport of the
female side of the House of Kelleys
these days. Today, it is Grace Kelley
who asks of her husband, Charles w
Kelley, an office employee of the Santa
Fe at 500 a month, separate mainte
nance and division of property.
A mother-in-law is one of the thornS
in Mrs. Kelley's seven-year n atrimon-
ial adventure, she says. Always her
home was occupied by Kelleys moth
er, says Mrs. Kelley in her petition,
and this impaired plaintiffs use and
enjoyment of home" Then, too, she
claims, Kelley cursed and abused her
and made things so unpleasant that
she has maintained her residence at
the home of her parents, at Ills
Throop street.
The Kelleys lived at 1911 Van Buren,
street and owned furniture there valu-
ed at $500. Also Kelley owns prop
erty at ATS Van Buren, street, Mrs.
Kelley declares, and she asks for an
equitable division of same. Since the
trouble started Mrs. Kelley has been
working in a department store. They
were married in Dallas, Tex, in Au-
gust, 1909.
