remarkable success in raising the re-

necessary having been raised up to
the present. The objective point has
been so nearly reached that the di-
rectors are announcing a raise in the
selling price of the stock from ten
cents to twenty-five cents, effective
after June 8.
The success of the company thus
far should not, however, be consider
er phenominal when one investigates
the articles which the company manu-
features. These are all products for
which there is an almost unlimited
market, and a market which is con-
tinually being enlarged

pany in Twin Falls are many promi-
nent business men, the stock being
nearly all held by Twin Falls peo-

FRANCE TRAINS MEN
TO FIGHT WITH Us
Frenchmen viii Be Only Nineteen
Years Old When They Cooperate
With Us In Ranks
By Henry Wood
UNITED Press.l


WITH FRENCH ARMIES, June G.
France has begun training the class
of 1918 consisting of the youngest re-
cruits, by whose side Americas army
will be fighting next fall, should the
war last that long.
The new French class will be a
little younger than the men of the
American army They will be but 19,
while the youngest Americans will be
81.
All France hopes that American in
tervention will render it unnecessary
to ever again call out one of the
French classes before the usual mill
tary age. The class of 1918 which is
now at the instruction camps is prob
ably one of the finest France has pro-
duced 1t is being especially instruct
ed in bayonet fighting and hand gren-
aiding.

LONDON, June When a German
seaplane swooped down and discharg-
ed an aerial torpedo which sank the
5000 ton British steamship Gena, the
Boche stole one of the pet ideas for
naval WARFARE which the British Ad
miralty had been treasuring. Over a
year ago the English aeroplanes were
fitted out with devices for carrying
and discharging torpedoes against en-
envy ships, but the Germans beat them
to it.
The idea of aeroplanes attacking in
this fashion is extremely practical, a
British naval authority declared to-
day 1t is hoped that the United
States will soon start offensive move
ments against German ships with this
means of attack A light gun, loaded
with cordite can be used to fire the
torpedo, or a special launching ar
rangement in the form of light bas-
ket which throws the torpedo and en-
ables 1t to be aimed.
