OUR SOLDIER BOYS
More Enlistnents and More Honors
for Some Of the Jerome Boys.

Those among the Jerome repre-
sentatives who have been In training
for the past three months at the Off
GERS reserve camp at the Preside,
San Francisco, have all received high
honors. Last week we mentioned
that c. r. Burkey had been commits
Stoned as Captain of the Aviation
corps, and now comes word that Jno.
l. Hillman has been commissioned
as First Lieutenant, and A. L. Anrud
has received commission as Second
Lieutenant. This is indeed an honor
for our Jerome gentlemen, as 1t
must be remembered that there was
an exceedingly large class in COM
petition for the honors.
Mr.. A. Burr Pence, second son of
R. Lincoln Pence of this city has been
appointed First Lieutenant In the
regular army service.
Young Pence received his early
military training at Bonneville, Mo-,
where he attended the Kemper Mill
tary School, since which time he has
been connected with the State Militia
of Colorado. He has served his coun-
try In the regular army for three
years, having served In the Philip
pines for two years and one year in
Washington.
This honor comes to young Pence
purely on his ability to put it over"
and his success In receiving this hon
or is much appreciated by his many
friends here and elsewhere. 1t only
goes to show that there is always
room up the line for all those who
get In the game and, by close appli-
cation and hard work discharge the
duties they have to perform. Just
where Lieutenant Burr Pence will be
stationed no one knows, but here is
best wishes for his future, and we
predict a further advancement for
this self-made. soldier.
Among the new enlistments from
| Jerome this week is Sidney Cecil Har-
! ris, brother Of NJ B. Harris, and
who has been In the employ OF the
Water Co. during the past summer
He left the first OF the week for Fort
| Douglas, where he joins the quarter
masters department.
Mrs. G. II. Brayton reminds us that
her son, w. M. Brayton, should be
listed among the Jerome boys, as he
resided here for some time, though
not enlisting from Jerome He now
holds the rank of First Lieutenant.
Other names to be added to the
list are Wilkie Hoffman and Roy
Rutherford.
There are some further changes to
be made in the list as recently pub
lished, but we will give complete
list again In the near future.
= Friends of E. G. Bennett, are in
receipt of photographs showing Mr.
Bennett in his regulation uniform.
He is now located at Boston. but has
been transferred to Bath, Me-, where
the government is engaged in large
ship building operations. Letters re-
ceived from friends of Mrs. Bennett,
who is now at Salt Lake City, state
that she and her little daughter ex-
pect to join Mr. Bennett at Bath, as
1t is probable that he will be sta
toned there for some time.

H. P. McGregor In Effort to Find Out

The Island soil has never been a

Islanders want to know. OF course.
There is 4 reason.
So II. p. McGre2or. the veteran
Main street QueeTlswarc merchant, a
resident Of North Front street, whose
gardening activities are we'll known.
has sent a sample OF the Island soil
TO the state agricultural experiment
station at Morgantown. with request
that il be analysed and informatoia
given OF the necessary additional in
gradients in the way Of fertilizers 10
make the Garden Spot one great and
grand potalOe patch.
Needless 10 state. there Will be me
quest for expert information, whlcA
will be given 10 eager public through
The Intelligencer. -,
Hundreds Of Islanders have tried
the potatoe game. but never a one
with success. With potatoes selling
recently AT dollar a peck. the average
amateur gardener is decidedly partial
to planting iubers. so naturally the
IMcGregor inquiry will rival the latest
and most exciting war news in ;h4
avidiry with which developments will
