TAKES NEW cHARG

Rev. and RS. H. o. Cooper anne up
from Salem Monday evening and met
a number Of the Hubbard Methodists at
the home of Mrs. Savilla Waldron and
BROTHER, Chas. Christian. Rev. Cooper
is the newly appointed minister for
Hubbard. Rev. T. Aeheson, the former
pastor, goes to Fargo. This move was
considered wise, because of its being
his last year at Willamette University
the course of study is heavy and the
work at Fargo not requiring as much
time as Hubbard. Rock Creek, White
school and Hubbard now comprise the
Hubbard charge and regular Sunday
services are announced. The new pas
tor transferred to the Oregon conference
from Washington in order to attend
Willamette University, coming to us
from Ridgefield, Washington. Rev.
Acheson made a good record at Hub
bard and is entitled to the loyal sup
port of Fargo. AS vacant houses are
practically an unknown quantity in

settled as yet.-Hubbard Enterprise.

AUXILIARY OF COMPANY I
ORGANIZE AT WOODBURY.

A number of wives, mothers, sisters
and friends of Co. I, met at the Armory
on Saturday, Sept. goth, for the purpose
of organizing an auxiliary to work for
our own boys.
Mrs. May, wife of Colonel j. l..
May, who was to have been present,
was detained on account of sickness,
and in her absence Col. J. NJ. Poorman
called the meeting to order and stated
the object in a few words, which is to
work for the members of Company l,
and their dependents.
Mrs. Eugene Moshberger was unani-
mously elected president and very cap
ably presided over the meeting, which
allowed Colonel Poorman to retire and
leave the field in possession of ''ladies
only.'
Mrs. P. A. Livesley was elected vice
president, Mrs. Minnie Richards seere-
tary and Mrs. Grover Todd treasurer.
Membership fees were fixed at so cents
per member for six months, which is to
be used for materials, thereby insuring
Company l will receive the benefit of
all money paid in.
The city hall was selected as a meet
ing place and it was decided to meet
each Wednesday, Alpha Auxiliary Civ
ing up their Red Cross work on this day
to join in the work for Company l and
it is hoped that all members of all or
CARNATIONS will join together on this
day to work for our home boys.
The following committees were ap.
pointed: By-laws-Mrs. Simmons, Mrs
Blaine MeCord, Mrs. C. F. Whitman
To raise funds-Miss Jessie Sims, Mrs
R. II. Scott, Mrs. Benton KILN. Mem
bership-Mrs. Louise Storey, Mrs. L
N. Hicks, Mrs. Frank Wright.
The question as to whether this aux
iliary is to be solely for Company / o.
for the Bird Oregon was discussed, but
left to be settled at the next business
acknowledgement.

DAHLBERG ADDS NEW FIXTURES.

Dahlberg's Pullman, owned and op-
Grated by Carl Dahlberg has just COM
pleted the addition of a number of new
fixtures which prepares them to handle
light lunches as well as ice cream and
soft drinks. The new fixtures are in
the form OF a cabinet which occupies
the whole side of the main store room.
1t was made by Chas Hammock and
would be creditable to any place OF
this sort i'm a much larger town than
American Falls. A steam table has
also just been installed which keeps
chilli or any other light lunch dishes
al the boiling point all the time.
When interviewed on the subject Mr..
Dahlberg said that it was his idea to
have store which could be kept clean
and sanitary Even the glasses are
kept in a cabinet while not in use.

Importance to the country of cOmplet-
ing arrangements toward furnishing
water for this land and if legislation
is necessary l will at once introduce
and endeavor to secure the enactment
of the needed laws during the ap-
preaching session of congress.
II would be an easy matter for the
owners of this land TO organize a dis
trict and secure money to construct
tie laterals as soon as assurances
can be given that water will be made
available for irrigation and as the
richness of the soil and the good prices
new being received for farm products
would make the bonds a splendid in
vestment.
The quick and liberal response on
the part of the people of Idaho TO the
needs of the government in the Second
Liberty bond issue is a source Of
pride to any loyal citizen of the state,
and indicates that there are few
slackers among us. The people have
been equally generous in their contri-

realize more and more the righteous

the approaching session will be con-
