Did you ever think of the actual
use the automobile has been in
making conditions of life easier for
the people in the rural districts of
the west. Only four or five years
ago it took two days to 90 TO At
lanta or any of the more remote parts
of the county. Now thanks to the
auto it is as easy to travel to those
points than it is to reach towns es-
tablshed on the branch lines of the
railroads. For less than four hun
dred dollars farme can buy small
car that will take him anywhere he
could go with horses and in one-fourthI
OF the time. In one season he will
drive the car further than the horse
could go in a life time and with no
danger of visit from the represen n
tatiVe of the S. P. G. A. OF course
every Ford owner soon yearns for a !
larger and heavier car and the sur |
prising thing is that most of them
are made so much more effective by
the Ford that they can soon afford
a Studebaker or Dodge. The former

town is now a near neighbor on

big convention next week. The
church has been cleaned and decor

OF the size of Mountain Home in this
state has COmmodious and modern
church building as our own Baptist
church.
When the remainder OF the side
walk is laid and the grounds about
the church put into lawn it will GER
tainly be an attractive corner.
The pastor and congregation of the
Baptist church desire to thank the
many friends OF the church who
have so graciously opened their
homes for entertaining the delegates
to the convention next week. Many
OF the best homes have been yolun-
tarlly offered without even the COM
mlttee having to call upon them.

OVERLAND AIDS IN
BUILDING PART
OF NEVADA HIGHWAY

Far out on the Nevada desert
some thirty miles from Fallon on the
route OF the Lincoln Highway, lie
the famous mud flats" one of the
really great stumbling blocks in the
path OF the transcontinental tourist.
At this point the road scarcely de-
serves the name; heavily rutted and
turroWed, with no chance to secure
traction on either side of the exist
Ing grade, 1t is the supreme test of
any motor car on the longtrip.
In the future, the tourist is to have
no cause to dread this particular sec
ton of the western Lincoln Highway
Drive. For him the mud flats are to
be no more. An improved and per-
manent roadway is to stretch across
this barren waste. The wheels of
thousands of automobiles will spin
over the surface of what is to be
known as The WHY'S Overland Me-
mortal Section of the Lincoln High
way"
The Willys-OVerland Company, of
Toledo, O., has announced its inten.
ton of joining interests through the
Lincoln Highway Association with
the state Of Nevada, in improving
this piece of road. A fund of $780,
600 has been contributed by The
Willys-Oyerland Company, which will
be added to an equal sum to be
raised by the state for the work.
The best of engineering advice is be-
ing sought and the work, when com.
pleted, will be of the highest stand.

By boosting for the things they
have any community can improve
their worldly condition. For instance
Mountain Home and all this part of
southern Idaho has a climate equal
to anything that lies outdoors. Now
southern Idaho has advertised that
climate lot and many people come
in for the purpose of enjoying it.
On the other hand southern Idaho
has some things to contend with
that are not good for the country.
Maybe the stranger coming in will
not look on them as drawbacks
and there is no use OF talking of the
disadvantages when you can talk of
the advantages. In other words,
don't knock.

The trip of Mountain Home bust.
ness men to the upper part of the
county should be marked by a bet
ter understanding of the greatness of
Gilmore county. Mines, forests, range.
We have them all in abundance. All
that is necessary is to get capital
and people in to develop these varied
resources to make Elmore county
the most populous and wealthy of
ldaho's thirty-six subdivisions. 1t is
Just as much to the interest of Noun
tain Home to see the whole county
grow as it is to see our own city
The city can not make a healthy
growth that will put it ahead of the
supporting territory and if that con-
tributory territory grows faster than
the city, then We will all see condi-
lions of permanent prosperity that
have never been equalled in south
ern Idaho.

ALLIES WON'T REJECT WILSON'S NOTE
THIS IS THE WORD
OF ENTENTE
DIPLOMATS
IN j. s.

= WASHINGTON. Dec. 22.--
For the same reasons that
Great Britain and her allies
did not ilatly reject the peace
proposals OF the Tcutonic
powers. they will not fatty
turn down the suggestions
made by President Wilson in
his peace messages, was the
expressed belief OF some en-
tente diplomats here today.
This opinion was voiced to
a United Press correspondent
in intimate and confidential
xfalks at two of the most inn
portant entente embassies IN
Washington.
AT these embassies two reasons
were given for the above opinion;
TO show officially and formal
ly" any regret over the presidents
peace suggestions by fatty refus-
ing his request for specific terms
would be playing directly into Ger
many's plans. since Germany then
would have opportunity 10 reiter-
| ate oft.repeaied protestations that
| the entente allies are responsible
for proionging the war.
Such a flat rundown would tend
TO weaken what sympathy there
now Is IN the Z. s. for the entente
allied cause.
These allied diplomats did no,
hesitate To admit "chagrin" over
the presidents suggestion that
specification OF war objecdves Is
necessary. They said allied speak
ers have been specifying their OBJ
iectives for two and a half years.
