CAME FROM GLENORE

Spencer Williams and B. F. Red
dick came down from Glenore in the
east end OF the county the first of
the week. They drove to Idaho
Falls and came by rail from there.
They report having had a rather
light snow fall until near the end
of February when the weather man
gave them IL days and nights Of con-
tinuous showing. That served to
satisfy all parties, and with whatever
drifting there was in the program,
some are more than satisfied
They report the school in session

of days when blockade was &C
knowledged. Mr.. Williams and Mr..
heddick are members of the school

COUNTY TEACHERS
MEET PROFITABLY

Over 100 teachers of the county
came together for the program meet
ing at the high school auditorium
last Saturday and afterwards express
ed themselves as much helped besides
having been entertained by the talk
and music. Professor Vincent deliv-
cred one of his thoughtful little lee
lures which are the chrystallized out
come of his years of acquaintance
with the growing minds of children.
He emphasized the following vital
points in education: that each per-
son in the world has certain duties
as a worker and as consumer;
schooling is just putting the mind in
order for real thinking; teach the
positive attitude of appreciation for
beauty and excellence; develop
thinking in the pupils instead of
examining; educate the young so as
to provide them with interests to
take up their leisure hours, thru life.
These are the wake-up doctrines
of education as heard from the
tongues of the broadcast modern
thinkers today, and in regard to
them Professor Vincent is Bingham
county's prophet.
There was general discussion on
what the qualifications of good
teacher are, in which many took a
part. Miss Ormsby performed enter
tainingly on the piano, and Miss
Rhea Drollinger sang pretty song.
The Basalt teachers vocal trio &C.
counted we'll for themselves musical
ly. Miss Cassie Wright read a paper
on primary reading methods. County

to the teachers. Bobby Robbins play
ed violin solo. Superintendent
Langton, of Shelley, gave talk on
the vocal element in reading.
The assembly decided to gather
itself together again at the time of
the final spelling contest.

PRISONER WRITES A BOOK

l.. M. Dean, the man who kidnap-
ped Ernest Empey in the summer Of
1915 and who is now serving an
indeterminate sentence of from two
to fifteen years in the penitentiary,
informs us by letter that he has writ
ten a book entitled, 1.-THE Heart of
a Man." in which he tells the causes
of crime, and lays bare his feelings
as he has analysed himself since his
incarceration. 41e thinks the public
will be interested to know what are
the views of a penitent man who has
ample time to reflect upon his sins
and mistakes and misfortunes until
his heart bleeds all the time.
He has applied for pardon, and
states that when he secures his lib
erty, If he ever does, he will under
take to retrieve the past record. The
book, he says, makes $50 pages Of
typewriter manuscript, and the En-
pey matter forms one chort chapter
of It.

ON THE JOB A YEAR

The first of March, 1915, Fremont
Kutnewsky undertook to fill the new
position of reporter at The Republi-
can office, and has been on the job
a year. He had completed his uni
aversity course and had had some ex-
perience at office work, but no train
ing for gathering news. In his IL
months experience at the work Of
his choice he has discovered that
news gathering is no easy task I'M
less one Is both born for it and train
ed in the art, and the actual struggle
in business skaters some of peoples
university ideas.
Adding the position of reporter to
our little country weekly was the re-
suit of large number of people COM
ing into the office and voluntarily
paying their subscriptions in adj
vance. That was the most substan-
tial evidence we had ever had
that our paper was appreciated and
that the public really wanted to do
their part in sustaining the press.
We spent two months trying to find
a suitable man before we found one
we were willing to "invest time in.
The paper has been better the past
year, and larger number of people
have shown their appreciation by
paying in advance for 1917. A month
ago we added another helper in
George w. Manning, and the paper
grew from eight pages to ten. 1t is
more expensive but people like 1t
and many are getting their neighbors
to subscribe. The middle of March
we are adding another helper, Mrs
George W. Manning, whose work will
be chiefly with writing and advertis-
ing.

glad to learn that Mrs. Briscoe is
we'll on the road to final recovery.
Her aff1iction was serious case of

beat. There were good and anus
ing numbers between the acts in the
way of songs and Rotations; also
music by the band. Songs were sung
by Miss Mona Thomkins, George

other.
