lions.

That the sheriffs OF southern Idaho
had a very satisfactory and profitable
meeting at POcatellO Saturday is the
statement of Sheriff Frank NJ. Ken
dali, who attended. The idea of the
meeting was to outline plans for sys-
tenlatic and harmonious dealing with
situations that might arise in connec-
ton with the /. W. w. and other un-
patriotic movements.
Governor Alexander who called the
sheriffs together for consultation
spoke at length on labor conditions
based on the information he gathered
while conducting a personal ~investiga-
ton in the field of their activities.
Attorney General T. W. Walters dis
cussed the legal phases of the case
with great clearness. The whole
meeting was satisfactory and will re-
suit in more effective cooperation.
Sheriff George Mabey Of Bannock
county was appointed secretary of the
meeting. Besides the sheriffs a con
siderable number of deputy sheriffs
were also present at the session.

attended the session: Frank NJ. Ken

LADY WHO ADVERTISED TOWN

When Binghamton, n. Y, desired to
attract neighboring citizens to the
town, young lady was selected to
visit other towns and see what made
them attractive, boosting, at the same
time, Binghamton. The result of her
airy American Magazine and the writer
of the fact, says:
Miss Mccormick declares that her
work was the most educative of any
compaign she ever tackled. She
would be justified in setting up shop
herself on the strength of the knowl-
edge she gained.
Won't you give us list of some
of these things you learned about
people? asked a merchant. We can
use 'em in our business
Sure replied Miss Mccormick,
with her most dimply smile. And this
is what she wrote down:
q. Keep human: business depends
on the human equation.
"2. Courtesy is the first law of
business.
"S. The knowledge of a woman's
name is the open sesame to her con-
fidence.
"a. Don't expect interest if you are
not ready to show it.
''5. Artistic display of goods is half
the sale.
"6. Every dollar invested in a good
clerk will return a hundredfold.
az. A good location is money in the
bank.
"S. Variety is the spice of shopping.
80. Price, style and quality are all
greatly to be cherished, but the great
est of these is style.

Only Test to Players Is
Eligibility to Contract

Cincinnati, Ohio, Jan. 9.-The ma
tonal baseball commission yesterday
held that the only tests that should be
applied to the engagement of a minor
league ball player upon his willing
ness TO play for a salary within the
prescribed limit of the club desiring
his services should be his eligibility
10 contract. Any other restrictions
imposed by league legislation are held
arbitrary and subversive of the ma
tional agreement rights of the player
and therefore are null and void.
In announcing the ruling the COM
mission says: The National Associa-
tion's. officials and members will be
held TO strict account by the commits
sion If this ruling is not respected and
enforced"
The ruling was rendered as a result
of the resolutions adopted by the ma
tional board at New Orleans reciting
that the Muscatine club of the Central
Association had subscribed to and
voted for a rule prohibiting tho en-
ployment of more than five veteran
players on its team.
In this resolution the national board
said the Muscatine club had subscribed
TO it in 1915, but had resisted its en-
forcement in 1916, and concluded the
resolution as follows:
Resolved, That it is the sense of
this board that Manager EEan, of the
Muscattne club, has appeared before
the courts of baseball with uncIean
hands, and be it further resolved that
this board further decline to place it's
stamp of approval on the winning of
pennants by such unfair and unsports-
manlike methods"

Aviator Dead, but Plane
Sailed on as Usual

Berlin, Jan. Q. - Replete with dra-
matte incidents are the reports just
published of the late Captain Boelke,
the famous German aviator who
brought down forty aeroplanes dur
ing his service ended by his death on
October 20.
One of the most striking incidents is
included in an Overseas Agency sum-
mary as follows:
i wondered at the stubbornness of
the enemy" wrote Boelke, Consider
ing that he must have been finished a
long time ago; but he continued to
circle in the same fashion. Reason
told me the man must be dead and
that the machine was being maintain
ed IN its right position only by the
rubber band at the helm. Therefore
l approached closely and saw the oc-
cupant of the machine leaning toward
the right side, dead. The aeroplane
bore the number 1895. The horrible
picture left me unshaken. ] let the
man alone and attacked the next
one"
An example of chivalry reported in
Boelke's book is to the effect that
after having encountered an adver-
sary Boelke made several rounds of
honor" over the place where his
enemy had fallen. A 'round of
honor" among aviators is a mark of
courtesy to a fallen brave enemy.
Boelke himself decorated the place
where the enemy aviator had been
buried with military honors with u
bunch of red, white and blue flowers.
One of Boelke's most remarkable
qualities was his respect for an
enemy and he repeatedly used
phrases like the following:
"A British aviator really flew home
at height of 100 meters above our
trenches. He was a smart chap. This
is not likely to be done by another"

KRAFT TO PLAY
AT WILKES-BARRE.
Big First Sacker Signs Contract
With Red" Calho un; After
Other Stars

Kraft, the eccentric first sacker, who
played with the Harrisburg Inter
nationals two years ago, will play with
Wilkes-Barr this season. He is con-
sidered one of the headiest men in
the baseball game, but it is said his
eccentricities keep him out of the
major leagues. \ dispatch from
Wllkes-Barr says:
Manager John c. Calhoun made a
big step forward in the rebuilding of
the Wilkes Barre baseball team when
he concluded negotiations for the pur-
chase of First Baseman Kraft from
the Milwaukee club. Kraft was one of
the best first sackers in the minor
leagues and should effectually plug the
ghastly, yawning chasm at first base
that has so disgusted local fandom the
past three seasons.
Was With CIymer
Kraft was with Billie Clymer's
Louisville team the early part of last
season and was used by him in a trade
for Jay Kirke. Clymer last evening
stated that Kraft was an ideal fielder.
heady player and a timely batsman
who should be in the 800 class in the
ork state League. He declared that
Calhoun was to be congratulated on
landing the player and that he should
greatly strengthen the Barons in every
department of the game.
KRAFT finished among the first four
tlrst sackers in the fielding department
last season. He played in 154 games
and smashed out 144 hits for an aver
age OF .2Io and scored 81 runs. He
made 25 two base hits, 10 three
baggers and S home runs He made
20 two-bases and sacrificed 2S times.
After Other Stars
The sorrel-topped manager intends
TO have winner if it is in the woods
and is being Loyalty backed in his
efforts to recast the team by the club
owners.
The fact that Wilkes Barre is to
have its first real first baseman since
Snake Deal was dropped will be re-
ceived with satisfaction by the fans"

CHARTING THE ARNIY's FEET

To a layman. the records of the in
spections of the feet of the various
militia regiments stationed on the
border last summer are astonishing.
For example take the specific case
of the Sixteenth Pennsylvania Infan-
try. Out of 1,0S7 men inspected only
290 sound feet were found. -Four
hundred and seventy-six men were
wearing shoes too small. The Six
teenth Pennsylvania sported $50 corns,
762 ingrowing nails. 613 bunions, to
say nothing of such esoteric maladies
as "exostoses," ''pronation," and "hal-
lux valgus," of which latter misery
there were $50 we'll developed cases.
One wonders how the Sixteenth Penn
sylvania got over the ground at ALL
THE Feet of the Fighting Men," in the

Johnny Tilman Outpoints
Buck Fleming in Six Rounds

Philadelphia, Jan. 9.-Johnny Til
man, the Minneapolis welterweight,
outpointed Buck Fleming in the wind
mp at Olympia last night in fast and
exciting encounter that went the limit
of six rounds. The weight announced
for the men was 1873 pounds and they
looked trained to the minute. Tilman
perhaps trifle too fine. They were
not long getting together and in the
very first round Tillman cut loose like
a wild animal, and, after staggering
Fleming three times, he dropped him
to the floor with clout on the jaw
that sent Buck down for the count.
Buck showed the generalship of vet
eran fighter, for he weathered the
storm magnificently, and was in good
shape before the round ended. He
made wild rush at Tillman just be-
fore the bell rang and when Johnny
him Buck almost pitched
head foremost out of the ring.
