WOMEN MAKING AC-
TIVE CAMPAlNG IN
SUFFRAGE STATES.

Throughout the states where wo-
men vote there is the greatest actiyJ-
ty on the part of the National Wo-
mems Party. Practically every county
in our own stat has been visited
and committees of local women
formed This last week state head
quarters have been opened up in
Boise. Mrs. lnaz Milholland Boisseya n
of New York on her five weeks toU
has spoken al four places in the
state. Mrs. Sara Bard Field of Cali.
forna, one of the most active work
ers ia this cause OF nationwide suf
frage, and one Of the most beloy
and able speakers. spoke on The 9th
of October at the Pinney tn atre in
Boise, from there she went to Twin
Falls 10 speak at a Women's Party
meeting, While the State Federation
is holding its session there.
After the Women's party convention
WIS utlu ldSt jHiit Ill NHNtOSbp tttlu-
ing papers and magazines commented
editorily aud OhterW s. on the fact
that here was a group Of women not
only deadly in earnest in their efforts
to bring about nationwide suffrage
but that they were working IN the
only way that politicians and parties
wound recognize These women had
observed the power of party govern
ment' in all sorts national legisla-
ton. Previous to 1910 women voters
helped to chase only one thirtyfIrst
Of the electroI vote, whereas be
tween 1910 and 1914 there was such
AN increase, that they now help to
choose one-fifth of that vote, which
is one-third of what is nee essary to
elect any president Consequently
during the pas three years and a half
of active work at Washington, tn ir
policy has been one Of holding the
party in power responsible or the past

bright and cheerful interior. This is accomplished in good style in this de- sign. A broad window opens to the porch from the living room, and there are also two smaller windows placed on each side of the fireplace. Three windows occupy most of the outside wall space in the dining room.
 The kitchen is small and compact and arranged to reduce useless labor to a minimum. It is made as bright and well lighted as the rest of the house, which is q feature that will be appre- ciated by all housewives. Three large windows accomplish this purpose in good style. The little serving pantry between the dining room and the kitchen forms valuable annex to the kitchen and helps iD reducing the work in this part of the house. The back porch will be appreciated in the summer time, when it can be used as part of the kitchen.
 Two bedrooms are regularly pro- | yided for and the third can be used as a den unless it is wanted for the accommodation of guests. Two, gen. erally, are all that are needed, but this plan can be arranged so tkat the den can be used, or the double sliding doors can be left open and the den really becomes a part of the living room. This room, the living room and the dining room should be finished in somewhat the same style, since the wide openings between these rooms make the arrangement seem like one room, and an effect will be obtained which is not harmonious if the rooms are not finished in the same general way. The dining room and the living room really make one large room, as the only thing separating them is q colonnade with bookcases in the lower part of it on each side of the opening. Living room and dining room equip ment includes a large fireplace and a buffet.
 The back hall is a convenience that is most necessary in a house of this size. It insures privacy in all the rooms and yet any part of the house can be readily reached from any oth- CT part. The dining room, kitchen, basement, bathroom and the two bed rooms all have doors opening into this hall.
 A good basement is provided with sufficient headroom so that a heating plant can be installed. The walls

BamDurg.- Governor Hays, in a speech at Ham burg, vigorously opposed proposed amendment No. 12, which would give school districts the right to vote 12- mill tax for school purposes and is be ing advocated by all educational agen- cies in the state, and reiterated pre- yious differences that he may seek the nomination for United States senator in 1918 A large part of the address was devoted to his record as govern or. He defended his acts and called attention to the improved financial condition of the state, which, he said, was brought about solely by his veto of more than $600,000 of the amounts appropriated by the last legislature.
 While the governor was opposing the school amendment, some one shouted, What about amendment No. 14?" In reply the governor said he is opposed to the amendment Tor any other measure designed to create bond issues or increase taxation"
 Amendment No. 14 would permit the present three-mill road tax now levied in most counties to be levied for a period of 30 years instead of one year, and provides for the issu- ance of 30-year road bonds, to be taken up by sinking fund created out of the tax collected.

consideration. A great many designs may be greatly benefited by building the house upon terrace. As a rule, the bungalow does not have a place in this group of designs, but there are particular cases in which this general rule will not hold. The experienced architect may easily give the proper proportions and correct slopes and curves to a house to fit it for any posi- tion in which it might be placed The last determining factor which controls the appearance of a house from the standpoint of it's position Is its distance from the street. Not only is there a direct effect with re- spect to this point, but there is also extent and character of lawn between the house and the street will deter mine in what manner sidewalks will be laid, vines and shrubs planted, and various lawn decorations placed. A house near the street does not admit of an extensive plan for the lawn. In fact, if an attempt is made to carry out anything elaborate in the way of lawn decoration the critical neighbors are moved to express themselves, not without some truth, in the remark, "Overdone." On the other hand, a deep, gracefully sloping lawn which has been properly endowed with nat ural beauty may be made to add a great deal to the appearance of the house by the addition of curving side walks, arbors and little rustic bridges or other decorations in keeping with the house design. Bungalow designs yield especially gratifying results from this kind of lawn treatment. Origi- hated where nature made easy the Identification of it's surroundings, the bungalow still looks best when estab- lished in a spot which at least ap- proximates it's birthplace.
 The bungalow shown here is type that would be a delight to any one It is an ideal bungalow home. The exterior arrangement is very attrac- tive and striking and the interior is model of comfort and convenience. The exterior has many features that will recommend it to the person who wants distinctive home. The porch construction is particularly striking There is nothing more attractive and inviting than low, broad porch roof, especially if built tn the form of an arch, as in this case. The porch walls and pillars are built of stone and brick distinctive in that a rough surface is obtained by allowing irregular pieces to project out from the surface. The roof is of artistic design, being of the gable type, unusually well decorated and proportioned.
 In the room arrangement every de- tail has some particular value. A par ticular feature of the front rooms of the house Is the lighting. To fit in with the attractive appearance of the exterior 1t is necessary to have a

Last winter the French authorities imported from Alaska and Canada sev- eral hundred trained dogs for draw ing sleds in the Vosges mountains. They proved so useful that they have been employed during the summer in similar work, though they now draw the sleds on small railways. Eleven dogs with a couple of men can haul a load Of a ton up some of the most precipitous slopes in the mountains, according to the Railway Age Ga zette.

Commissioners To Meet.

Commissioner John H Page of the Department of Mines, Manufactures and Agriculture has received an in- vitation from J. k. Case of Mountain View to meet with agricultural com missioners of Arkansas railroads at that place October 25, with view 10 improving facilities for shipping crushed limestone from the vicinity. MT. Page will be out of the state with the Arkansas-on-Wheels train on that date, but it is probable that an official from his department may attend the meeting.
