Lost Tones Discovered

The any-record Brunswick creates new
artistic standards in the phonograph
world.
Upon the advice of expert acousticians,
long-seasoned woods of especial reson-
ance and elasticity are being used for the
Brunswick sound-chamber-a new triumph
The tone modi6er, an added luxury,
gives absolute control of the volume of
sound, without mufaing. If yon wish,
you may "play' each record. according to
your own interpretations.
The oversize, extra-capacity motor
means less winding. 1t was designed aud
built by famous European genius. The
automatic stop is accurately timed and
always works. All wanted features are
united in this one machine. With later
improvements extras-numerous
refnements-all without increased price.

Washington, Dec. 16-All records
for value of the country's important

Their value was placed at $7,641,-

ture in its final estimates of the year.
That is $1,75O,000,000 more than the

mands for American food from the

sponsible for the vast increase in

Rare Pathe Records

The Brunswick Photograph with Pathe
records is an unmatchable combination,
at a fair price. They introduce new must

Milan, Vienna, and other old world CEN
tiers. The Pathe library is the largest
musical collection in the world. They in
troduce many of Europe's celebrated
artists, hitherto barred from many Ameri-
can homes. And all the great bands. or
chestras and musical organizations. But
remember, the interchangeable sound
boxes permit you to change from one
make of record to another, instantly.

BUSINESS MEN
BACK FOOTBALL
Movement Started To Get Com
munity Behind Team
FINANCES PLEDGED TO MEET
POSSIBLE DEFICIT.
Old Coaches Volunteer to Help Regu-
lar Head-Effort Made to Arouse II
Community Spirit.

The business men of Twin Falls will
get behind the high school football
team this year and push for their sue
cess both financially and in the way
of physical training, in order that the
boys may not only feel that they have,
but will have the support of the COM
munity as a whole
1t is not intended that money shall
be contributed at the start for the
purpose of carrying the team through,
but that sufficient support be secured
to make good any deficit that may ex-
ist at the end of the season. At the
same time, old football players and
coaches have volunteered to assist
Professor Naffzgen in his training
work so that he may devote his ener-
gies exclusively to the training of the
team while the volunteers will look
after the instructions necessary to
teach the individual players to protect
themselves against injury and to best
handle themselves individually.
The community support manifested
so strikingly here in baseball circles
has not appeared in football heretofore
and the hope and belief is expressed
that the result of community appre
citation will prove as satisfactory ir
the last as in the first.
A systematic campaign to increas'
attendance will begin shortly, and thl
hackers believe that they will be in
position to assure lovers of the spor
that they will get more than the wortl
of their money in solid enjoymen
every game.

ALL is IN READINESS
FOR captain RACKET"
Dress Rehearsal Tonight viii Round
Cast Into Shape For Performance
Tomorrow.

Everything is in readiness for the
presentation Of the comedy Captain
Racket" to be given under the aus
pices of the Women's club tomorrow
night at the Lavering theatre. The
cast, which is completely composed
of Twin Falls business men and wO-
men, has been working diligently for
the past fortnight and the showing
made thus far will assure a good per-
formance and the dress rehearsal this
evening will complete the preliminary
work
Several features have been added to
the evenings entertainment and these
will make the play somewhat differ
ent from the usual run of amateur
performances. Between acts vocal
solos will be given by Mrs. c. M. Biggs
and Edith Holcomb, and as both la
dies have voices of recognized beauty
and quality this feature will be a well
come one. Another feature will be
that of the ushering, for nine young
ladies in costume will have charge of
the seating arrangements. Music for
the evening has been kindly promised
by William Coburn and Neil Shelter.
Friday evenings performance is a
benefit for the Women's club and the
members of this organization have
been conducting an active ticket cam
paign to assure the success of the ven
ture. This method of raising funds
was considered by the women to be a
pleasanter and more effective means
of reaching the public, than would the
personal soliciting of subscriptions.

TRACT POTATOES
GOOD FOR SEED

TWO FIELDS PROVE ABSOLUTELY
EXEMPT FROM TROUBLE.
Others on Which Experiments Are
Made Show Practical Freedom From
Disease.

The Twin Falls spuds will prove de-
sirable for seed on account of the rela-
tive absence of disease is the opinion
OF o. A. Pratt, of Jerome, representa-
tive OF the United States department
Of agriculture, who was here this week
making an examination of the potatoes
around this city.
Among the fields in which expert
ments have been conducted he found
one from which rhizoclornia had been
entirely eliminated and others in
which it was present only in a negli-
gible way. lie also found that fus-
rum wilt had been eradicated from
one field in which experiments had
been conducted and reduced to small
proportions in another. This led him
to the conclusion that this would be a
good country from which to secure
seed potatoes.
