PUBLIC MAY WITNESS
NAVY FOOTBALL GAMES
Authorities Devising Plans For Admis-
sion To Grounds Under Ger
tain Restrictions

There is a chance that the ban plac-
ed against admission of the public to
the Naval Academy reservation owing
to the war restrictions, will be lifted
to some extent that the people of An
napolis, at least, will be permitted TO
witness the football games The first
contest of the seasons schedule is
scheduled to be played on Farragut
Field on Saturday The opposing
force will be the eleven of Eastern
College, of Manassas, Va.
For some time the question of
whether or not persons not connected
with the Academy would be allowed
to attend the games has been mat
ter of much agitation, and it is un-
derstood that serious consideration
has been given the matter by the Ma
val officials during the last several
days. That they will be permitted to
witness the games. now seems high
ly probable. Such being the case, it
is expected that all persons will be
directed to seats in the grandstand,
and that they will be expected to
leave the reservation Immediately
upon the conclusion of play.
And. according to the tentative
plans that have been laid down, those
of the public, not accompanied by
officers or members of their families,
will be admitted at the No. l gate,
which is directly at the field, and
they will be assigned to certain sec
tions of the grandstand In other
words. the authorities have devised a
plan to take care of spectators. as
far as practicable under the string
ent conditions that now exist

Aid being extended to French
children by the American Red Cross
Commission to France, is described
Red Cross War Council. In addi-
ton to infant welfare units estab-
lished under the direction of DR.
William p Lucas, throughout France
and Belgium, special assistance is be-
ing given in the fight against tuber-
culosis and children's diseases. A
children's hospital has also been
opened at Toul. A cablegram de-
scribing the work of the Children's
Bureau is as follows:
The Children's Bureau in the De-
partment of Civil Affairs of the Red
Cross Commission to France ceceiv-
ed an appeal from Nesle through
Monsieur and Madame Amedee Yer
mes of the French Red Cross for aid
among the children of their district
and the group of villages to the north
and west
TN response, an expert from the
Children's Bureau, a specialists in
children's diseases from Johns Hop
kins Hospital. was sent Immediately
to investigate the conditions. He
visited the region in company with
Monsieur Amedee Vernes and found
villages looted and burned, with all
buildings destroyed He found more
than 1000 children practically with
no medical care. all miserably dirty
and one-half of whom were infected
with skin or eyellesions, and many
actually ILL.,
The equipment for any medical
care was exertmely meager; one old
hospital stripped of all its appara-
tus; one aged civilian doctor left
without drugs or means of getting
them, villages to look after besides
his army duties, and one midwife
fairly intelligent who might help.
Twas an acute situation
''Nesle Immediately offered a tu-
berculosis pavilion now used for the
Red Cross headquarters, il the Ameri-
can Red Cross would help. The doc
tors recommendation upon his re-
turn were Immediately accepted
"The Children's Bureau began work
by installing central depot at Nesle
with ten beds as a clearing house for
the district, and by equipping IN au
tomobile as a travelling dispensary,
with shower baths. The cars visit
the villages on daily round with
one good trained nurse and two aides.
The arrangements for all this are
nearing completion and the doctor
has gone to Nesle taking enough ma
terial with him to begin the work

ARRESTED ON
SERIOUS CHARGE
Accused Escapes Vigilance Of Dep
uty Sheriff.
VICTIM YOUNG GIRL
Man In Khaki Being Brought From
County Ran Away From
Officer

Due to apparent negligence OF the
part of Deputy Sheriff Robert Stock
EFT, of the South River section of the
county, young man arrested on the
charge of criminally assaulting IA
year-old girl a few days ago, made his
escape, but was arrested again today
shortly before noon
The man who gave his name as
Sylvester Shaffer. and who is SAID to
be % years old, committed the act
down near Rutlend The victim of
the ravage is Anne Klutz. The crime
il is said, created considerable excite
ment in the neighborhood, and an ac-
tive investigation that was immedi-
ately begun, resulted in the capture
OF Shaifer while he was working in a
tobacco field.
Late yesterday afternoon Deputy
Sherif Stockett placed the prisoner
in team and drove to Annapolis with
the intention of lodging him in the
county jail To await the action of the
Grand Jury at the coming October
term of the Circuit Court. Il appears
that Mr. Stocl1ett drove his team into
the livery yards Of c. b. Martin on
West street. "Nippers" had not been
placed ON the prisoner, nor was there
anyone else with Mr. Stockett TO
guard him, and he got away when Mr.
Stockett got out of his team and
started to tie his horse Subsequent
ly ii was learned that Shaffer made his
way back TO South River, apparently
with the intention OF returning TO his
home. Shaffer was only scantily
clothed. His garments consisted OF
pair OF khaki working trousers. and
shirt. He wore no coat, hat, nor
shoes Following his escape. Shaffer
is said to have been seen ON the ferry
scow that operates between River
view and sections on the opposite side
of South river, and evidently suspect
ing that he was being sought, II is
said. he jumped from the ferry into
shoal water and ran Off. He was
picked up in Annapolis this morning,
however, by Deputy Sheriff Grafton
Boone. and is being held pending
further investigation of the matter
Shaffer. according to the police
officials, is bad character

THE CUB SAYS

Frank Just, who lives IL miles
northeast of Blackfoot at the edge
of Presto bench, is conducting a lit
tie nursery Of his own. He has a
tiny angle of his farm devoted to
raising young shade trees as II to
repair or extend his grove. The
trees stand four or five feet high,
are a good stand and of uniform
size. The farmer of the future will
raise q few new trees each year and
cut a few to supply posts and fuel,
and it will be much pleasanter than
taking a few trips to the canyon or
the lava beds.
Fred Bennett lives southeast of
Frank Just's place and has modern
house supplied with water from a
we'll and windmill on the hill above
the house. Water pipes supply the
stock at convenient places, the house
has modern heating plant, a re-
frigerator, and is cozy. A garage
and machine shop are on the, prem
Uses. Mr.. Bennett planted three
acres of navy beans this season but
they were put in SO late 1t is doubt
full about the crop maturing. II the
weather clerk does his part in ex-
tending the warm weather at the end
of the season as he delayed it at the
beginning, Mr.. Bennett will have
enough navy beans to furnish soup
for the allied armies.
J. G. Patterson lives in the Just
neighborhood just above where the
valleys Of the Snake and the Black
foot unite. He has never given much
attention to gardening until this
year, and when President Wilson
advised planting gardens last spring
to help prevent the famine, Mr.. and
Mrs. Patterson proceeded to stay the
famine. He plowed up three acres
of hillside where sheep had been fed
at times for three or four winters,
where potatoes had been raised last
year, and planted it to garden. A
little over an acre. of oninos look
now as they would prevent an at
tack of scurvey in many regiments.
The rows are planted close, and the
onions are about as close together as
they can grow. The number that
have been thinned out was so great
that Mrs. Patterson was regreting all
spring that they had to be wasted
while so many people at distance
needed young onions. They have a
Planet Jr. drill and cultivator with
which to plant and cultivate them,
and Mrs. Patterson has already Gull
tivated them five times. They are
irrigating them now, and as soon
as the ground is dry enough they
will run the cultivator thru and
throw the dirt away from the onions
in the effort to keep them setting
on top of the ground. Mr.. Patterson
has been investigating to see what
it is that makes onions grow large
bulbs and small necks, and has been

HOMEsTEADs CAN BE HAD

The editor of The Republican has
examined some Of the lands adver-
tised by George H. Webb in this issue
and recommends them to the consid-
Grafton of persons wanting dry farms.
The opportunity for securing these
lands will soon pass. Homeseekers
have already taken thousands of
acres of less desirable lands in the
county lying farther from town. and
would undoubtedly have taken these
they had known about them.
The locator, Mr.. Webb, earns the
location fee when he searches out
the good lands, marks the lines and
takes the homeseeker to several of
the best ones so he can make hts
choice. These are probably the best
free lands left in Bingham county.

and the other never paid excepting
when it could pay in printing or ad-
vertising, and the merchant would
give his business to the paper whose
editor had an account on his books.
Then the one who had been paying
cash could not get any business from
that firm till the other fellow got
squared up. By that time the &C
count would again be burdened with
more purchases, and often with stun
he didn't need, and in that way the
cash man would be again barred out
and the fellow who was poor pay
easily got the business. When ne
presented his bill for printing and
advertising the prices would general
Nv be high because, he considered
he had them con the hip" and
could charge what he pleased and
get it, and he did. In order to Keep
up his purchasing power he used to
20 out and sell goods on the sly or
trade them in various ways so ne
could keep buying on account at the
stores. In this way the dealer lost
cash sales to good customers and
sold an equal amount of goods to
the man who was poor pay and
whose purchases had to be traded
out in printing and advertising at
high prices.

The partners in the new paper dis

other organized a stock company and
sold stock to as many persons as
he could, taking their good money
in exchange for a scrap OF paper.
When a stakeholder thought 1t was
time to have a stockholders meet
ing and be consulted about the man
agement of the business and see
about dividends, he found there was
not much to meet for. Ii ne tried
to sell his stock he found no buyers.
If he became troublesome about the
office. insisting on having a voice
in the management he would get
roasted thru the paper about some
thing. If he tried drawing out MS
interest by having printing done ne
could do it, but he would be over
charged for everything. II he went
out selling advertising or printing
to somebody else, he found he could
do II. but he would be overcharged
and he would be increasing the bust
