The school board will stand by
the superintendent when he is
in the right. 1t will be a coun-
Gil and clearing house for the
schools of the county.
This plan does not interfere
with local districts. They will
hire the teacher, agree on wages,
set the length Of term, continue
to manage their own affairs, do
ing every last thing that the
trustees do now.
The school board would deal
only with those things that are
now under the county's jurisdic-
ton. Outside of it's special du-
ties, it would be a center Of edu-
cational activity for the county
only so far as the local officers
found occasion for cooperation.

WHAT IS A BOY SCOUT?

A Scout enjoys a hike through
the woods more than he does a
walk over the city's streets. He
can tell north or south or east
or west by the signs" He can
tie a knot that will hold, he can
climb a tree which seems i'm
possible to others, he can swim
a river, he can pitch a tent, he
can mend a tear in his trousers,
he can tell you which fruits and
seeds are poisonous and which
are not, he can sight nut-bear-
ing trees from a distance; if liv-
ing near ocean or lake he can
reef a sail or take his trick at
the wheel, and if near any body
of water at al he can pull an
oar or use paddles and sculls; in
the woods he knows the names
of birds and animals; in the
water he tells you the different
varieties of fish.
A Scout walks through the
woods with silent tread. No dry
twigs snap under his feet and
no loose stones turn over and
throw him, off his balance. His
eyes are keen and he sees many
things that others do not see.
He sees tracks and signs which
reveal to him the nature and
habits of the creatures that
made them. He knows how to
stalk birds and animals and
study them in their natural
haunts. He sees much, but is
little seen.
A Scout can kindle a fire in
the forest the wettest day and
he seldom uses more than one
match. When no matches can
be had he can still have a fire,
for he knows how to start a
blaze with only his knife blade
and a piece of flint. He knows,
also, the danger of forest fires,
and he kindles a blaze that will
not spread. The fire once started,
what a meal he can prepare out
there in the open!
A Scout practices self-control,
for he knows that men who
master problems in the world
must first master themselves.
He keeps a close guard on his
temper and never makes a silly
spectacle of himself by losing
his head. He keeps a close
guard on his tongue, for he
knows that loud speech is often
a cloak to ignorance, that swear
ing is a sign of weakness, and
that untruthfulness skaters the
confidence of others.-Ex.

fling by the Bickel school seventh and
eighth grade boys was one of the fea-
lures which brought loud applause.
They wore regulation Hoot Mon Kill
ties and were realistically attired.
The third grade gave Washing the
Clothes" in seven parts, difficult but
cleverly done. The "Rhinelander Folk
Came" was then played by the Bickel
seventh and eighth grades, girls in
costumes of green skirts, with red
bands, black bodice and white waists
and caps. And last came the May
pole dance proper with the streamers
of blue and white suspended from the
pole tops, the girls attired in dainty
white dresses trimmed in garlands of
blue flowers and wearing white caps,
the fitting final to a program as ar
tistic and well carried out as was ever
seen by an Idaho audience. The
school had been at work on the well
arranged program for eight weeks and
their labor was not in vain Miss
Schoren had charge of the senior
drilling; the juniors, Professor Clark

ated so tremendously and successfully
in the work among the pupils in their
rooms that in order to give due credit
it would be only necessary to run a list
of the teachers.

At the Isis theatre for four nights,
commencing next Monday, May 18th,
will be shown one of the most note
worthy achievements in the history of
motion pictures 1.-THE Battle Cry
of Peace" is more than motion pic
ture. 1t is a great national propa-
ganda dealing with the most important
problem that has confronted 'this ma
ton since the civil war-the problem
of Americas unpreparedness.

your veins, you will experience in wit
Messing this production a thrill such
as you have never known before.
You will see the enemy approaching,
the powerlessness of New York, the
weakness of its forts and defenses
You will see the havoc wrought by the
enemy's howitzers, submarines, air
ships; by its shells, sharpness, and
bombs.
You will see the most beautiful sky
line in the world in flames, the metro

vastated
You will see New York fall, the

JUNIORS BANQUfIfD The
SENIORS THURSDAY NIGHT
Play and Dance Given Before Dinner
Tasty and Beautiful Decorations In
Evidence.

Perhaps the most elaborate and sue
cessful affair of the season in high
school society was the Junior prom"
given Thursday night in the high
school complimentary to the present
graduating class The affair was beau
tiful in every detail and showed no
little labor and preparation. At eight
o'clock the Juniors presented a uni
que little play, in compliment to their
guests, entitled Her Sweetheart" The
Seniors, who enjoyed it to the utmost,
sat is a body in the balcony of the
auditorium.
Following this the party adjourned
10 the gym, where dancing and cards
were INDUCED in for some time. The
room was very lastly decorated in
the Senior class colors, red and white
and the color scheme was effectively
carried out in the festoons and bas-
kets which were suspended gracefully
from the ceiling. The party later
formed in the grand march, led by the
presidents of the respective classes
present, and their ladies, found upon
entering the auditorium a perfectly ap-
pointed banquet spread on long Ia
bles adorned with white and lavender
lilacs and upon which pastel shaded
candles afforded stril1ingly beautiful
effect The banquet was in charge of
the domestic science class under the
direction of Miss Hungate.
There were $50 in attendance anC
every one pronounced it one of the
most enjoyable affairs of the kind evel
given in the history of the schools.

figures 1916 were done in class colors
of red and white on both cars. This
ended the procession which left a most
favorable impression with the towns
people
AS for the exercises which took
place in the park it is impossible to
speak too highly of them and the eX
cellent display by the various teachers
First came the dainty little tots of the
first grade in the tailor's dance. Then
Twin Falls, Idaho, worked out success
fully by the Lincoln department
grades, who formed about Uncle Sam
and Miss Columbia encircled by bunt-
ing in the nations colors. Represen-
tative of all the nations carried flags
after the stars and stripes, but these
were replaced by Miss Columbia,s who
gave them in place flags of the star
spangled banner which they proudly
waved above them. The fifth grade in
costumes, the little girls wearing yell
low bows and yellow aprons and the
boys straw hats and yellow ties, gave
dance called Reap the Flax" This

dies of the Bickel seventh and eighth
grades wore white dresses and green
or pink bodices and aprons and cir
cled about a green and pink May pole,
carrying milk pals covered with flow
ers of the same colors. Next in order
was Hot Cross Buns" in which the
boys wore baker caps and they were
followed by the first grade, which pre-
scented the merry Go Round" The
! Indian drill was a pleasing feature in
which the boys, attired as real Indians,
displayed muchz skill in initiating the
red men in the fierce war dances.
The seventh feature was the "Ace
of Diamonds" cleverly done by the
fourth grades but not in special cos
tune The high school girls presented
''The Slumber Boat" in a remarkably
graceful manner They were accom-
panied in singing by quartet which
stood in the background. The wreath

design was not primarily intended to

Behind these came the boys of the
perennial green of the freshies, and,
carrying out the same idea were the
girls carrying bright green parasols.
The youngsters won the second prize
of $1,000 offered by the Twin Falls
commercial club and predict that they
will come out first next year. Then
came the sophomores, whose appear

the gift of the commercial club.
Theirs was a magnificent float of
Lavender and white, on the center of
which was a wall of lilacs the full
length of the float with the basket

the rings of which appeared in pur-
pie letters the class motto, eve build

pole, from which extended the four
teen streamers in the class cOlOrs OF
blue and old gold, held by the fourteen
girls, who, like the rest of the girls OF
the class, were attired in white with
large blue ties. The procession
marched four deep.

TYPOS Vote TO
RETAIN THE SIX
DAY WORKING WEEK

BALTIMORE, Aug. 1s.-The well
fare Of the apprentice was considered
today at the convention of the Inter
national Typographical Union when
the delegates concurred unanimously
in the report of the committee on ap-
prentices
Included in, the report was uni
form wage contract for apprentices
which together with the report will
be printed and submitted to every SUBJ
ordinate union In the United States
and Canada. The legislation defines
the rights and obligations OF appren.
tees but leaves the wage scales and
the work to be taught during the five
years Of apprenticeship to the individ.
ual union.
The administration forces regained
their old strength on the report Of the
law committee which favored the re-
tention on the six day working week.
The proposition had been made to al.
low local unions to legislate for them
selves on the question of the sixth day
or seventh day schedule. The new
proposition would have taken away
from the foreman the right to desig.
nate to each typo one day week as
day off and would have permitted
men in shops 10 have virtually tgnor.
ed available substitutes who were
looking for work.
The law committee reported ureav-
orably on the proposed change and its
action was upheld by vote Of 181 10
