BEAR cor ALL CAMPS HAMS
Trap ls Set and Mr.. Bruin Furnishes
Something to Take Place
~ of Ham. ."' s'

! Bangor.-With hams at present
prices even rich corporation like the
Great Northern Paper company cannot
afford to feed bears on that sort of
fodder, and SO it was distinct relief
to the boss of the company's camp on
Elm stream, nine miles from Seeboo-
nook Falls, when the camp timekeep-
er, Raymond Dyer Of Bangor, acted.
In the camp on Elm stream was a
bArrel Of smoked hams. September %
the barrel was full. The morning Of
October 1 the barrel was hamless, the
cook found. Tracks Of young bear
were around the building.
Dyer set trap. Tuesday morning
at three o'clock the crew were aroused
by a tremendous granting and thrash
ing. The ham thief was in the trap,
fat, furry and furious, securely pinched
by his right fore paw. A logger
smashed the bears skull with an az.
The men ate SOME Of the bear meat
and Dyer got the skin, which he sold
for good price in Bangor, and also
collected the state bounty, So, from
City Clerk Victor Brett.

They hired good help. People who
could do quality work. They have
seven helpers now, and are buried
in work. The slogan, Business Is
Good" applies there.
We think the moral of this incl
dent is. that if a girl wants to go
into business, she should decide what
she wants to do and prepare for it.
Once prepared, she should find a
place where that kind of service is
needed and let people know who
they are, where to find them, and
what quality of service to expect,
and then make good on the an
nouncement. In that case printers
ink combined with ability to do the
work, created a new and f1ourishing
business in day.
But it will be said that these
folks had money to back them in
getting the education, that money
makes the difference between sue
cess and failure. Some of the girls
who are working for them had no
capital, and they fill important places
in the scheme of rendering photo
service. But we will go further
east and into a more densely popu-
lated district where it would seem
that all the openings had been taken,
and show how somebody without
money started newspaper and in
thirty years made himself the king
OF the world in the newspaper line.
See next issue Of the paper.

QUELLS PANIC WITH PISTOLS
Captain Of Ship Bombed by Zeppelin
Holds Control Of Frightened
Crew.

Stockholm.-The Swedish steamer
iFlandria was attacked by Zeppelin
on its latest trip homeward. The first
bomb which was dropped narrowly
missed the Ship. The engines were
stopped and the crew ordered into the
boats. Four more bombs were dropped
dangerously near the vessel. Before
all those on board had entered the
boats there was panic, and the cap
tain had to use his revolver to enforce
discipline. The ships company, after
remaining for about two hours in the
boats, returned to their vessel. Sew
eral hours later another airship ap-
peared and lowered about for a time,
but departed without doing any harm.

YOUNG PEOPLE STARTING
TO BUILD A BUSINESS

It Is quite an undertaking for
young people to get into business.
1t is a greater task to go into bust
ness and succeed. If a person out
west goes into business, they gen.
orally have to spend many years
growing up with the country before
they have any success worth while.
1t is generally considered that the
east Is already overdone, and getting
into business is still more difficult
there. A case has come to our no.
tice that has some points of interest
worth while and we outline them be-
low.
Four years ago Miss Jennie May
Boice of Richmond, Virginia, came
to Idaho in company with her
brother, DR.. Ed. Boice, and visited
for a while at the home Of their
aunt, Mrs. Byrd Trego. Miss Boise
had finished her education and while
looking over the west, she had it In
mind that IL she found something
that suited her she might start some
kind Of business, but she. had a good
home and peace and plenty back in
Richmond. 1'-1.
Doctors never have very much
time, so DR.. Boice went home and
left his sister visiting. When she
was ready to start home she had
been out to the coast and back, and
thru the Yellowstone park, and
started home via Salt Lake and
Colorado Springs. taking all the side
trips she wanted to. At Denver she
concluded hn hMA Ill -
the west she wanted to, and took
the Sante Fee to San Francisco, and
the Southern Pacific to New Orleans,
and Joined her dad in the white pine
forests Of the Carolinas where he
was operating some lumber mills.
Out Of all her observations she
chose town in Illinois where they
teach photography very thoroly, and
she went there and studied couple
of years to learn all about photog-
raphy Of the line she wanted to work
in. Then she formed a partnership
with an acquaintance and opened
new photo business in Richmond, do
ing interior work and group and in
dividual photos of persons.
1t is said that General Lee opened
the battle Of Gettysburg with bang.
the bang of $50 cannons all fired at
the same instant, and that every
body In the country roundabout
knew there was something doing.
Well, these two people opened their
photo bushes with a bang; that is,
they sent out printed announcements
to a great number of people, telling
them just what kind and quality of
work they were prepared to do, gave
their location and phone number,
and offered their service.
From the day Of the opening down
to the present time, that gallery has
been a busy place. Filled to over
flowing, they opened branch near
Petersburg. They employed help,

FAMILY WENT BACK

B. Kinds and wife, who located
at Wapello recently to conduct the
blacksmithing business, are return
ing to their former home Of Hplmess
Wyo.
Mr.. Hines did not ind enough
business at Wapello to make it
worth while, and is storing his tools
there for the winter, thinking he
may return to this county in the
spring, but he wants place where
there is enough business to keep him
busy; no loafing job, thank you.
Mr.. Kinds says that Holmes is the
only mine in the world from which
we can now obtain platinum, owing
to conditions brought about by the
war.

EASTERN STAR INITIATES

The regular meeting of the East
ern Star was held Wednesday even
ing and proved to be very successful.
There was large attendance present
and Mrs. George Dore, Mrs. N. A.
Stone and Mrs. Frank Bergman
were initiated into the order. After
the business meeting delicious re-
freshments were served. Mrs. George
Gagon reported having assisted the
grand matron and grand patron In
instituting two new chapters Of the
order of Eastern Star the past week;
one at Ashton and one at Shelley.
The officers for the ensuing year will
be elected at the next regular meet
ing.

STARS AND STRIPES i,
CHEERED IN PARIS

Paris.-The Stars and Stripes
still stir up big demonstrations
Of enthusiasm in the French cap
tai, even though months have
elapsed since the United States
entered the war.
The grand finale at the Folies
Bergere the other night brought
out the flags and national an
thems Of the allied nations a
la George Cohan. The British
colors and "God Save the King"
brought demonstration and a
large number in the audience
rose to their feet. The Italian,
Belgian, Roumanian, Serbian,
Russian and Portuguese flags all
brought applause.
Uncle Sam had the big place
in the tableaux. When a pretty
girl strobe on the stage waving
the Stars and Stripes and the or
chestra swung into "The Star
Spangled Banner" the house
went mad. A Canadian soldier
proposed three cheers for the
Yanks. Uncle Sam received an
ovation that would have glad
dened the hearts Of Americans
everywhere.

MIR. EsTBY BACK FOR A DAY

Oscar Estby, who moved to Weiser
in September, returned Thursday
morning and expects to be here for
couple of days looking after some
odds and ends Of business.
Mr.. Estby lived at Moreland for
a number Of years, and when he went
to Weiser he leased five-acre tract
near town with an option to buy,
He says the Weiser people are let
ting much of their apple crop hang
on the trees because they can not
get enough out of them to pay for
handling. The shortage of means
of getting them to market adds
much to the difficulties.

F. H. McGraw Of the Bills Auto
company has been out in the coun-
try hunting up the owners Of Ford
cars. Mr.. McGraw has been many
years with the Ford Motor company,
and has been field man and office
man at some Of their branch houses
and agencies, and his wide expert
ence in dealing with Ford problems
makes him a welcome visitor at the
farm where Ford cars need some
overhauling and repairing.

Champ Has New Version.

Champ Clark has added another
classic to the list Of proverbs, accord.
ing to the Washington Star.
It was in the midst Of a debate. Rep.

by saying: "A bird in the hand is
worth seven in the BUSH"

pairs will cost, regardless Of how
long the mechanical work at 1t. This
feature of the Ford service protects
the Ford owners, and the response
to it in this community has been
such that two extra mechanics have
been added to the force in the ma
chine shops at the Bills garage to
keep pace with the repair work.
Mr.. McGraw is at Salt Lake City
for a day or two and on his return
he will 60 out in the north end OF
the county visiting Ford owners.

farm The editor has often felt
like criticising a merchant for hav-
ing some store. We have spoken OF
the rank and file of desks and Of
fees and of their condition as to
lint, dust, dirt and disorder, and we
have told how the average Office girl
conducts business with those who
enter the office or ring up to try
to place an order or to deliver q
message to some one who doesn't
happen to be in just then. He gets
a smile and a 5promise and never
hears from 1t again till he goes after
the subject. But we have not yet
told of conditions in the average
country store. We are going to pass
the average kind and tell you about
conditions in one of the two or three
worst ones in the county as we have
seen them.

DONTrs FOR KNITTERs OF SOCKS

Don't cast on tightly. An other
wise well knitted sock may become
useless by this tight cord at the top.
Don't knot your wool. Join 1t
by splicing the ends or leave two
or three inches Of each end and
darn back carefully.
Don't make heel with a seam on
the sole.
Remember man may not have
chance to change his socks for
many days, and a lump or knot
brings a blister. If the blister breaks
blood poisoning may set in and re-
suit in the loss Of foot or even
life. We cannot afford to lose
our men thru negligence or ignor-
ance.
Don't use black, dark or bright
colors. There is again danger of
poisoning.
Don't use needles too fine for the
wool. The knitting should be elias
tic; If too tightly knitted the sock
Don't make foot less than eleven
inches long.
Make all measurements by ruler,
with sock fiat on table. Do not
stretch sock.
Socks should be laundered as fol-
lows:
Wash socks in warm water with
ivory soap. then rinse in water the
same temperature. Squeeze, but do
not wiring. Pour over boiling water
and let stand until cool. Hang until
nearly dry and press with warm (not
hot) iron. Do not press ribbing.

"everybody's store" situated in the
Eccles building at Blackfoot, has
added fitting room on the ladies
balcony, where the customer and

Creamery Strike.

The creamery at Irvinestown tenn
pOrarily has been closed down as the
result Of a demand by the employees
for an increase OF IS. weekly having
been refused by the Committee of
Management. The creamery was only
working three days a week, and on the
first morning of the strike the sup
pliers turned up with their supply Of
milk, but as the seven employees failed
to put in an appearance the manager,
Mr.. Irwin, was powerless, and the
farmers had to bring their milk home
again. 1t is stated that two-thirds of
the shareholders are in favor of the
increase. The loss of one days milk
more than covers the increase asked
for in the year.
