Mr.. Ray and Miss Cox gave a brief
program. Mrs. Fuller played the pia-
no accompaniment for a May Pole
drill, two SONGS by e Ripley children,

At the invitation of the fair COM
mittee, Hon. d. w. Davis made~a brief
address on a topic which appeals to
the mind of every intelligent citizen
of Idaho because it is so directly re-
lated to his pocket tbook-"Business
Methods in the Management of Our
State Resources" This is a day of
organization. Whether we are willing
to admit it or not, ours is an age of
specialization, also by this We mean
that in every plan for the oetterment
of the home, the school, the church,
the community, the county. the state,
or the nation, the one who originates
such plan must have at heart the
highest good of the most obscure
workman as we'll as the essential
check on the richest capitalist Sem
ator Davis has such a plan. He is a
man with vision. This vision, if re-
allied, will place Idaho at the fore
front of the forty-eight states of these
United States of America. Looking
back, Senator Davis sees other western
states largely owned by capitalists.
He see our state, rich today by virtue
of the land it owns. He sees the Ida
no of tomorrow, prosperous, and tax
free, by the capitalization of its re-
sources.
Miss Amy Kelley Of the Extension
department of the university address,
ed the Arbon women on the subject
of Household Management" She
spoke of economy of time and strength
for the housewife by arranging the
kitchen so that the stove, water and
work table would be close together;
of blocks to raise the work table to
convenient height; of castors to
permit its being moved about.
She then discussed the value OF
good bread in the family diet and the
progress made through the Girls
Bread clubs toward making the quail
ity of Idaho bread better you peo-
pie Of Power county grow an excel
lent grade of wheat. Your flour is
therefore superior and so should the
bread be which is baked from it."
Such interest was shown in Miss
Kelly's talk that July meeting, the
time and place to be definitely ar
ranged later, was asked for.

very pleasing address. She spoke o.
the value of concerted effort on the
part of the women and told about q
! few of the good deeds wrought by the
womans clubs of the village, which
individuals might not have secured
so easily. She recommended such al
organization for the women of the
Arbon valley. She told of the humble
beginning of the Power County fail

to visit the fair next September, as
suring them that the women of thu
Falls would do everything possible
for their comfort and convenience.
