COLUMBIAN'S JUMP
STARTS WILD TALK
No One Hurt in Derailment,
Officials Declare.

Rumors that some persons were in
jured and that the front unit Of the
electric motor was thrown into the
Missoula river when dirt slide hit
the west bound Columbian at noon sat
urday near the Garrison tunnel, were
denied last night by F. r. Willard, SUI
perintendent Of the Missoula division
Of the Milwaukee. The accident hap
pened in cut and the front unit was
tipped over, and the rear unit and first
express car derailed, as reported yes
terday.
The Columbia was going 30 miles an
hour when the slide struck the front
part Of the motor. The slide was 1876
feet long and 10 feet through at it's
deepest part. 1t was made up of dirt
and gravel and did little damage to the
motor. The slide was caused by a
spring up the side of the cut, which
had begun to flow because of the warm
weather and had loosened the dirt.
The track was cleared by a wrecking
crew from Deer Lodge 10 hours after
the accident occurred.

And a smile on its face we keep

Though the gurgle of the rapids, on
the rocks just below,
Sounds most like the laugh Of

And though we still remember the
shinin' in his eyes.
Before the water took him, to be
in Paradise,
Still the DARN heart Of youth is
beyond our control,
And we can't stay away from that
old swimmin hole.
Oh, the old swimmin hole; on the
warm, tiresome day.
When the humdrum of school
makes us want to run away:
Though mighty hot the journey,
down the long dusty road,
The weight upon our conscience a
pretty heavy load,
We could not for our life. or to save
our own soul,
Keep our feet from goin' down to

Bat stolen joys don't last. Let your
tears in sorrow roll,
For the boys that don't come back
from the old sWimmin' hole.

all a-go'n to make,
With the water so warm we'll not
shiver and shake:
And someone there to show how we
ought to begin,
And to pull out little kids that for
ever fall in:
Just You give us a plank, for to
tumble and turn,
And a shade so all our backs will
not blister and burn,
And We'll wish in our rapture, we
we could strip to the soul,
And play on forever in that new
swimmin' hole.

Origin Of Holiday.


In beginning his sermon. Mr.. Bassett
touched on the origin of Memorial day.
saying that there were three separate
traditions as to how ii first started.
According to one, it originated with
some freed negro men in the south in
1864, who stole out in the night and
scattered wild flowers on the graves
OF Union soldiers. Another tradition
has it that the custom was begun by a
woman Of Columbus. Miss, shortly
after the close of the war. The third
tradition is that it originated with
German soldier, who came here just
before the war, fought through it on
the Union side. and about the end of
the war remarked that it was the GUS
tom in Germany to decorate the graves
of soldiers with flowers. The G. A.
r. in 1868 took up the idea and set
May 80 for the observance OF the GUS
tom here.

THE PROBLEM OF THE HOUR

The scarcity of the food supply and
the high cost of living incident to
that scarcity. is problem that has
at least attracted the earnest atten-
ton of the business world. To the
business man, the merchant and the
manufacturer, the problem does not
appear so much in terms of supply
of food for their own household as
It does in terms of wages to their en-
ployes. The fact that their own liv-
ing expenses have increased enorm-
ously give point to the insistent de-
mand of their employees for more
wages in order that they may live.
The fact that the business men of the
country are commencing to give this
problem serious consideration is evil
denced by the sudden interest that
has been developed lately in agricul-
ture and gardening. A certain large
manufacturing company employing
a great many people and having Its
branches in various parts OF the coun-
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1917-03-29

try, has evolved plan to secure vac
ant city lots in the vicinity of their
plant, which they will pillow and cul-
tivate and turn over to their men for
planting kitchen gardens. Others in
turn are planning to put in gardens
for the use of their men without
cost to them, evidently figuring that
the cost Of supplying their employees
with vegetables is much less than
would be an increase of wages suf-
ficient to allow them to purchase
these articles Of food.
In Denver, the Agricultural Blu
reau of the Denver Civic and Com
merclal association has taken up this
matter in all earnestness and Is max
ing plans to develop the kitchen gar
den idea in the cities of that state.
The cooperation of the big business
interests of the cities will be solicit
ed and there can be little doubt but
that this cooperation can be had in
terms of liberal contribution towards
any practical plan that will increase
the food supply. All over the coun-
try the people are awakening at last
to the fact that the high cost of liv-
ing is simply the natural operation
of the law Of supply and demand and
is not due to any artificial manipu-
lation OF the markets, as many of the
newspapers have led the people to
believe. The solution Of the problem
lies entirely in increased agricultur-
al production.
