cool At Annapolis the mean daily de-
parture of the temperature below the

toes. buckwheat, pumpkins, pears and
apples are being harvested. Late po-
tatoes continue promising. Pastures

CHAPLAIN'S WELFARE WORK
As Conducted By Church Periodical
Club OF St Anne's
Parish.

The army and navy boys at their
camps and on isolated ships, many of
them far away from home influences,
will need the spiritual advice, counsel
and sympathy of their chaplains, and
will also look to them to furnish
amusement for their homesick and
idle hours.
For this reason the Church Periodi-
cal Club is mobilizing to provide the
army and navy chaplains with abund-
ant and definite help along its own
lines. To give this help the under
signed committee of ladies of st.
Anne's Parish has been formed 10
solicit and collect material. The first
and most urgent need is that small
sum of money be raised to purchase
service books containing hymns and
prayers to be used by the chaplains
for their Sunday services. The sec
ond need is for books, principally lic-
ton (recent) magazines, illustrated,
not more than six months old; music;
popular songs and song books; rec
ords; disc; games, small games, such
as checkers, back CANNON, dominos,
picture puzzles; pencils, ink, mucil-
age and boxing gloves.
Those wishing to help in this work
of love will please send money, if only
ten cents, to one of the committee,
or material, old or new, to st. Anne's
Church Guild room.

UNIVERSITY GLEE CLUB

The University of Idaho Glee club
is coming to Blackfoot again on
April 16. They pleased the people
with their music last spring, and
should draw well in consequence.
The club is under the direction of
Prof. Storer, and consists of 20 men,
who have put in good many of the
long winter evenings developing har-
mony and snap in their songs.
Among the most taking things they
have on the program this year are
two patriotic songs, Comrades sin
Arms" and "The Boys of the Old
Brigade" Both have the martial
swing and American vim.
The male quartet is always popular
and has earned the title, 1.-THE Syn
copated Four" which explains their
popularity and assures the audience
a program of dash and go. These
young men have rich, we'll trained
voices that blend together nicely.
There are three violin soloists. The
evening can hardly escape being a
rare one.

DEATH OF MARK JACKSON

THOMAS-Funeral services were
held at the Thomas hall on Friday,
March 80, over the remains of Mark
Jackson, Sr., who died of dropsy at
his home in Rich on Thursday March
20. Mr.. Jackson was we'll down the
decline of life and his death marked
the close of an honored and an hon.
orable life. He leaves a wife and a
large and respected family of child
rem to mourn his loss. His three
elder sons James, Mark Jr., and Will
lard, are pioneer farmers of this
vicinity, and a few years ago Mr..
Jackson bought the old Pequot farm
from d. J. Sullivan and moved to
Idaho to be near his sons and to
get, as he said, where he could raise
hay enough for his stock. He had
no fear of the grim reaper and told
his family some time ago that he
was all ready now to die, and felt
that it would not take long to cross
the great divide whenever his Maker
might see fit to call him home. Mr..
Jackson was a kind and obliging
and was noted for his
strict honesty in all transactions. He
moved from Granger, Utah, where
all his family were born.

Farmers Hold
Indignation
Meeting

Last Saturday a number of the
farmers from this vicinity met at
the Isis theatre at 100 to hear w.
"a. Scholtz in regard to his removal
from the farm markets bureau. He
was unable to be there and sent a
letter explaining that as this was the
last day of his term of office he had
to be in Boise.
Only a few were present at the
beginning of the meeting but several
came in afterwards. James Pendle-
bury acted as chairman of the meet
ing and called the attention of the
farmers to the need of non-partisan
paper and informed them that at
Boise there would be paper issued
this week that would be non-partisan
and in the interests of the farmers.
w. G.. -Scholtz would be at the head
of the paper that would take the
place of the farm paper which he
has been editing. Mr.. Pendlebury
urged all farmers to take advantage
of the opportunity to get this paper.
A letter was read from F. B.
French stating that he considered
farmers had been injured by the
removal from office and urged the
farmers to keep the pot boiling as it
was now hot, and they could accomp-
lish considerable by taking hold and
against the removal of Mr..
Scholtz. He urged the farmers to
form non-partisan league.

CANAANITES VS.. ISRAELITES

The Epworth league had an I'M
usual social in the church parlors
last Friday evening in the form of
newspaper affair.
| There is a contest on between the
two factions of the league to secure
new members and they have taken
the names of the Canaanites and Is
raelites and the loser will give,
banquet to the winning side. The
contest will close about the middle
of April and each side is confident
of winning.
There were five leaders on each
side, and each of these had a particu-
lar section of the paper to be the
editor Of Fun they had as never
before and all called it a grand sue
cess.
Harry Crandall was the chief of
the editorial section of the Cana
ante Blow Hard" as the sheet was
called; Zelm Egley was editor of the
local breyities; Burton Albertson, So
cial events; Mrs. Crandall, happen
ings in general; Mabel Christensen,
advertising.
M. w. Kriegh editor of "Cephor
Haammonar Gazette the Israe1ites'
PAPER; Lillian Christensen, local
brevities; Ada Yost, social events;
Cowell Davis, advertising.
The first part of the evening was
given over to playing games and
then a half hour was spent in writing
their newspapers, the crowd being
portioned off to the several leaders
to asst them in their tasks. After
the copy was prepared and written
on the blank side of the sheets, the
eaders stood before the audience and
read the news while the side of the
sheet towards the audience was
covered with very glazing cartoons,
ridiculous and suggestive,
which created no end of merriment.
Harry Crandal had prepared the car
boons and they were the hit of the
evening. He had also prepared the
posters announcing the event and
they attracted many people. The
writings were along the lines of
biblical places and names but did not
try to chronicle events in the bible.
The advertising was mostly jokes on
The other side, but furnishedt con-
siderable fun.
Seventy-five people were present
md took part in the entertainment
md all felt their side would win in
he contest for the banquet.

SUNDAY SCHOOL PUPILS
DISPLAY THEIR PATRIOTISM

Four of the pupils Of st. Pauls
Sunday school, moved by the desire
of our governor that the national
flag should be displayed inside the
churches, presented one to the mis-
sion at morning session last Sunday.
The attendance of pupils was ex-
ceptionally large, and the raising of
the flag was a most interesting cere-
molly. The four donors did the I'M
furling, waving and placing of the
flag in position. Then followed the
salutation, the reciting of the pledge
and the singing, most vigorously, Of
America. The story of the flag was
told by the whole school and after
a brief address by the superintendent
the meeting was closed by singing
the doxology.-Contributed.
