FACTORY EMPLOYEE
Wesley Williams Badly Burned When
Kelley Press is Opened by Mistake.
Inquiries Net Fatal.

BY a mistake yesterday Wesley Will
liams, % years old, an employee at
the sugar factory, opened one of the
Kelley presses containing boiling sug-
ar juice and was severely burned
about the neck and head when the
juice, which is under 40 pounds pres
sure, squirted out of the press. The
injured man was Immediately brought
to Twin Falls for medical aid and
though his burns are severe, no fear
is held that the accident will prove
fatal.

when the accident occurred Mr. Will
liams might have been killed out
right by the heavy lever, used to open
the press, which narrowly missed him
when it fell.

DAY
BIC SUCCESS

In many churches throughout the
city Sunday, Rally Day services were
conducted which were probably the
most successful ever held here. In
every case elaborate programs were
arranged and everyone invited to at
tend. On some of the programs the
award of certificates occupied a large
place and the announcement of an
honor roll afforded much interest.
In all of the churches it was gen.
orally conceded that the result was
gratifying and the number of new
students in the Sunday School classes,
as we'll as the collections are consid-
eered excellent.
In every case the interesting sub
iects arranged on the program proved
a powerful attraction and the large
number of children who participated
in the exercises made the event even
more interesting.
While the chief point was to bring
the Sunday Schools together and
create intereste among the students
the work did not end there, for in all
the programs instructive talks by the
pastor or superintendent of the schooS
were included.
