FROM CONCERT STAGE
TO PICTURE SCREEN
Social Pirates Star Sacrificed Voice
to Yield to Lure OF Motion
Pictures.

There is something about this mo-
ton picture work. with its great va
riety, and its days and days in the big
outdoors that / just couldn't give 1t
up after my first experimental taste"
is the way Marin sais explains her
decision to abandon concert career
and sacrifice her voice for the silent
drama.
The fascinating Kalem star is now
gaining new admirers by her work in
The Social Pirates" the big new Sc
ries by George Bronson Howard, which
is now popular feature of the Fir-
gilman. In this series by the famous
novelist and playwright Miss Sais is
given full opportunity to display the
charm and versatility that have made
her such favorite in kalem features.
Miss Sais made her screen debut with
Kalem four years ago, and her career
has included appearances in varied
range Of roles, from Indian dramas
TO comedies and tense modern melo-
dramas.
In explaining her oddly chosen
name OF Miss Sails laughs "Of course
I can't blame people for wondering
over such an unusual name" she de-
clares but I do get so tired of tell
ing folks that I was named Marin
after Marin County. California. where
was born. Ny folks came of an old
Spanish Castilian family and suppose
they thought there wasn't any pref
tier name under the sun than that of
beautiful Marin COUNTY"

KEROSENE fire;
WOMAN BURNED

FIRTH.-Mrs. Emil Sundquist, of
this place, who was painfully burned
in fire Sunday, is now greatly i'm
proved. While she was working with
the fire in the cook stove, one of the
children poured some kerosene into
the fire box. The explosion which
Immediately followed covered Mrs.
Sundquist with burning oil, and en-
wrapped in flame she ran out of the
house holding her hands over her
eyes. Mr.. Sundquist and her brother
luckily came to the rescue and put
out the fire in her clothing before
she was fatally burned. In the mean
time the house was completely de-
molished by the flames that started
in the kitchen. DR.. Simmons, from
Blackfoot, was the first physician to
reach the scene, and under his treat
ment Mrs Sundquist is in fair way
to recover without any severe con-
sequences.

KATIE DEKAY IMPROVING

F. e. DeKay returned this week
from Moscow and reported that his
daughter, Katie, is improving from
the attack of typhoid-pneumonia. The
turning point in her case lasted about
four days when the physicians said

physician promptly barred him from
entering the room, saying that colds
are contagious at any time, and that

SMITH BUILDING
NOW COMPLETED

In its beginnings the little two
story building just south of The Ida
hO Republican office on Taylo" street,
seemed too small for any use. But
now that 1t is a complete builcng,
with a store below and an office
above the prospective tenants believe
they would go long way to find
more comfortable quarters.
A, T. Springer is occupant to be
of the store on the street. He has
already moved much OF his electrical
supply stock into the roomy base
ment. He has plenty of space to
hang chandeliers and semi-indi-
rect lighting fixtures, of which he has
legion. The distinction of using the
whole first story of a building for
ones business belongs to the proprie-
tor of the Blackfoot Electric Supply
company, and besides the independ-
ence Of it should be worth few
shekels.
DR.. B. H. Hudson, who will move
into his new office upstairs next Sun
day, is congratulating himself on his
fortunate location, his big, handy
windows, and his five rooms. Not
many dentists, here, there, or wher-
ever, get up to five rooms: And few
dentists IN the state have so COM
Portable place to work in and re-
.ceive patrons as DR.. Hudson will have
in the new building. The reception
room will be a cozy resting place.
The doctor is also planning a little
dressing, or re-arrang!ng room for
ladies. Even mans na1r stands on
end after an hour of dental repair
ing; so the ladies will always be glad
for chance to touch up the hair.

GOLD PRIZES
NEXT WEEK
Paying You for Your Judgment.
Rules of the Contest and Sugges-
tions About How to Judge the
Work.

Next week we shall publish our
Christmas edition, and the readers
of this paper can have some sport
and chance to make some money
by making comparisons while they
read.
We will give SIS to the firm that
has the best advertisement in that
issue, and we will give another IS
to the person who writes us the best
reasons why that one should win.
The award to the advertiser will be
decided by counting the votes turned
in by our readers, and the other prize
will be awarded by the editor after
tabulating the votes and reading the
letters received telling which one
should win and why All letters must
be in by Thursday morning, Decem-
ber 81, and the money will be sent
to the winners that night.
What is an Advertisement?
This contest is on the advertising
only; not on the news items nor edi-
torials nor stories as it was last De-
cember. They way to distinguish adj
vertising from other matter Is to
observe whether it is published for
the purpose of offering something for
sale or to find something or to buy or
rent, or it might be a lost or found
item. Anything that is published for
the purpose of bringing about busi-
ness transaction in which money,
property or value is to be exchanged,
can be rated as advertising. A news
item is something that merely gives
information for news sake.
What Is an Editorial?
There are lots of us who do not
know what an editorial is, and It is
worth while to know. In the gen.
eral acceptance of the term, an edi-
torial Is an expression by the editor

TOLEDO STREET CAR MEN
WIN SWEEPING VICTORY

loledo, O.-Street car employees have
won their eighteen years fight for the
right to join the Amalgamated Street
Car Mems Union. These workers organ
lied short time ago, and a strike
started when the company ordered them
not to wear their union button. The city
authorities made application to Federal
Judge klllets to appoint a receiver for
the company. This was not favored by
the company because of franchises that
it is asking from the common council.
The court made several threats to ap-
point a receiver if the company and its
employees did not agree, and announced
he had selected the receiver, a we'll
known trade-union opponent, who would
be instructed to run the lines on non
union basis. which the court termed the
open shop" These threats had no eff
feet on the strikers.
When the men struck they presented
demands for wage increases and recog-
milton of their union. After two weeks
the company surrendered and signed an
agreement with the union. Wages of
motormen and conductors are raised 8
cents an hour The hours of shopmen
are reduced from ten to eight. with an
o'lilllollol NuSN IhNlNdSC vi IL pei ONHl.
Trainmen have established a minimum
day of seven hours, instead of one and
two hours that many of them worked
heretofore. When they report they will
be paid, whether there is work for them
or not, and they will receive time and
one-half for all time over ten hours.
/ Members of the Electrical Workers
Union. who joined with the street car
men, have secured an eight-hour day to
replace the ten and twelve-hour day.
Substantial wage increases are also
granted the wire men.
AS the company refused to import
strikebreakers not a single case OF vio-
lence during the two weeks strike was
reported by the police.
For eighteen years attempts have been
made to unionize the Toledo street car
lines. During this time International
President Mahon, International Treas
urer Rein Orr and other officials have
been assaulted by company thugs. Con-
stant agitation, however forced union
recognition, wage increases. reduction OF
hours better working conditions and ar
bitration where future differences arise.

ANCIENT ANTI-STRIKE
REMEDY AGAIN URGED

Milwaukee, Wis.-In signed article,
published in local newspaper, Presi-
dent Van Hise, OF the University of
Wisconsin, suggests that wages of pub
lie utility employees be handled by Public
Service Commissions in the same manner
that capital is regulated. He says there
is no reason why such commission
could not proceed in the case Of labor
difference with the same promptness that
existing commissions exercise in the
matter Of railway rates"
The question OF the wages and stand
ards Of living of the various workers
could be decided by these commissions,
who, President Van EIise believes, should
be furnished expert and statistical aid
to enable them to undertake elaborate
Investigations of the facts bearing upon
the economic condition OF railway en-
ployes.' With this information in their
possession the question OF wages can be
settled with as much dispatch as a de-
mand of railway managers for higher
rates
An Interstate Wage Commission is
the solution of this educator against
strikes of public utilities and consequent
inconvenience of the public. The COM
mission, together with its expert and
statistical aid would first agree on what
constitutes living standard OF, for in
stance. train service employees. Then
when these train service employees pre-
sent demands for higher wages, the COM
mission can compare said demands with
their figures, properly filed and indexed,
and render a decision accordingly.
BY this simple method strikes would
be eliminated, providing, of course, en-
ployes agreed that experts or other
State-paid professionals are better quail
fed to set living standards for workers
than the workers themselves.
Excepting this slight difference the
ancient anti-strike concoction. dressed
up in new terms by President Van Hse,
might prove workable-if a remaining
vital portion of this remedy can be
discovered.
