AUTHOR HUNG IN

Special recognition is being accord
ed Professor e. NJ. Hume, the disting-
uished Idaho author, at the Carnegie
library. The authors picture is dis
played, together with newspaper re-
views Of the professors book on the
reformation, which attracted the at
tention of even the London Times and
so impressed it's literary critic that he
devoted two columns to highly com
plimentary review at a time when war
news made extra demands upon the
great English newspapers space.
Professor Hulme's work is a text
book at Yale, Cornell, University OF
Chicago, University OF Pennsylvania
and 40 other leading educational insti-
tutions.
The author holds the chair of his
tory at the University OF Idaho.
The first move in the direction OF
arousing deeper interest in literature
was instituted by Mayor Hays with the
Mary Hallock Foote" week at the
Carnegie library. The mayor arranged
the Hume week and later will accord
recognition to other Idaho authors.

ital News: few days ago I wrote
you of having seen SO many loaded
cars of coal on sidings while on my
way east from Kemmerer to Cheyenne
on the date OF Nov. IS. The same
state of affairs Is now reported by a
man who has. within the last few days,
returned from the east, having travelled
on No. II, which would cover a diff
ferent section of road during the day
light than that covered by No. 4.
Having read your report in the News
about the shortage in Boise prompted
me to write you again. ! am more of
the opinion than ever that the trou-
BILE is not so much with shortage Of
cars and failure of the mines to get
out the coal as it lies with the roads
in not keeping the cars rolling. A
short time ago n car was unloaded at
this point and remained on track three
days after it was released.
