Former Blackfooters
Here From Oregon

Three members of the Smith
family have been visiting here from
Oregon. Mrs. Mary Smith, her
daughter Ada, now Mrs. Sellers, Ray
Smith and his wife, formerly Miss
Pearl Sagers and their two daugh-
tiers.
They moved away from here
twenty-five years ago and came back
to see relatives and old friends. They
came via the Yellowstone park, and
with fine auto camping outfit, they
camped in Mrs. L. NJ. Cherry's yard.
Mrs. Ray Smith is a niece of Mrs.
Cherry and grew up in Blackfoot.
Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Sellers look
very little older than they did when
they left here, but Mr.. Smith has
aged considerable. He has been en-
gagged in mechanical work, and he
and a friend of his have just recently
patented a gas engine that ranks
high for simplicity and power, and
from whic hthey expect to make some
money.

Fire Destroys
Fair Ground Sheds

A fire Of unknown source ate up
600 feet Of the horse sheds at the fair
grounds Wednesday afternoon. By
the time the call had been made and
the department arrived on the spot
all the sheds running east and west
were In flames. 1t was long way to
water in the ditch and the best the
fire fighters could do was to restrict It
to that area. They saved the sheds
running north and south. The fire
started ct 3 o'clock.
The loss, estimated at present lum-
Der prices, is more than $4,000 and
there was no insurance. The prop

DAYS OF THE

These are the days of the elders
Children are out of luck. Fire.
crackers banned on the Fourth, and
surtax on base balls and bats.
The prophets and seers and com
mercial clubs are down on all carhi-
val shows, that carry. off loads oil
money and bring nothing in--ex-
cepting fun for the kids. Spend the
money at home, they say, for, neces-
stiles, at fabulous prices. Yes, ii
keeps the moneyaat home all right,
among US, at least, you might say.
Our fathers forget in their hustle
for gain that kids have point of
view. Fun is no fiim-flam for young
sters, but the only thing that is real.
Shiny shoes and Sunday hats wear
out, but fun is remembered forever.
Father wishes that he were boy
and that his boy were man.
O, the good old days, the happy
days, when father was a boy-when
fun was fun, and shoes were boots,
and food was only food.-F. C. X.

THE PASSING OF
THE w. G. +. u.

The Woman's Christian Temper
ance union started out to advances
temperance practices in number Of
things, but chiefly in the use Of
! alcoholic liquors. During its tern
of service it has developed into pro
hibition union and extended its list
thou shalt not, to other things be
sides intoxicants. 1t has accom-
plished great deal in driving the
manufacture and use of intoxicants
from the open forum to the garrets
and cellars Of homes and apartments
What it has accomplished with
liquors it has done also with the
social evil without in the least
changing human nature, but has to
seem extent taught valuable lessons
and brought about cleaner living
more in harmony with nature.
The next thing the VIC. T. U. will
set its seal of determination upon is
the.use of tobacco. The name Of this
beligerant organization will, as be-
fore, indicate temperance, but obser-
want ones know that when it says
temperance it means prohibition.
When it says to stop excuses
it means to get off of the
earth, and these things carry the
suggestion that it change it's name to
Woman's Christian Prohib ti0n
union and abbreviate it to w. C. P. U.
Many predictions are being made
now as to what will be the next
things to be, listed for temperate
use, but really for absolute prohibi-
toin, coffee. tea, motion pictures,
and dancing are most often men,
toned. Carrying this principle to
its logical conclusions, the principle
of stopping all practices or impulses
that might be overdone or lead to
final satisfaction or excess, and by
studying the long faces and unevent-
full and often inconsistent lives Of
leaders and alleged leaders in the
w. G.. p. U. movement, prOvOkes the.
guess that they will ultimately place
the ban on smiles, kisses, compli-
ments and pleasant greetings. The
Quakers did much of that thing, and
included the prohibition of music,
ribbons, pretty colors, beauty in
dress, vivacity and ordinary express
sion of compliments, the removal OF
the hat when a man entered house
or stood in the presence of woman
or sat in a place of worship.
The Quakers petered out till they
do not count for much. We do not
hear of them doing much in peace
Or war, legislation or the molding of
public sentiment or shaping the
habits of the people. The rising gen.
srations of Quakers became so
starved for the enjoyment of natural
desires, they broke the bounds and
vent in for the sensible enjoyment Of |
Ill wishes that seemed implanted in |
heir natures, and the w. G. P. U.
night do we'll to study their example. |

THE POLITICAL
WORLD IN
INDIANA
TrIHEs uREAu At STATE CAPITAL

INDIANAPOLIS, nd. April 19.-It
looks like things political are going to
strike a calm for a time, in spite Of the
rousing promises Indiana Democrats
hurled before their national chairman,
II. s. Cummings, only last week: unless
the women of the Republican party
start something following their meet
ing here yesterday with W. H. Hays.
national Republican chairman. and the
state party leaders TO plan for or
ganizing the Republican women of In
diana.
All the Democrats who are likely to
run for anything seem still TO be sit
ting around with their fingers in their
mouths m specializing on past. present
and future events. Such discussion of
possible candidates as there has been
continues in a measure. but is becoming
neither more pointed nor IS 1t spreading
out much TO new names.
Senator James E. watson will be on
his way east again in a few days, after
delivering a number of addresses in In
diana. and expects TO remain in wash
ington until Congress %convenes again.
and the prospect Of an early session of
Cogress following the return of Presi-
lent Wilson from Paris is considered
as another influence to delay extensive
political developments for some time
yet.
The situation in Indiana with the Re-
publican party is regarded as pretty
clearly outlined. Republican leaders
believe there will be logical and direct
choices OF candidates by the very ma
ture Of the party situation. With the
Democrats, on the other hand. a large
aeld OF aspiring ones with little to dis
tinguish one from another. and with
the great uncertainty prevalent in the
Democratic party at the present time as
to what in the world a fellow is going
to run on. anyway. is about the present
situation. Campaign activities. there is
a growing belief. are likely TO be pretty
general for the immediate present.
The meeting Of the new women's
executive and advisory committees with
the Republican leaders yesterday was
an interesting event. marking the be-
ginning OF organizing the Eomen's vote
Of the party. National Chairman Hays
made a thoroughly practical speech on
politics for the benefit of the commit
tees. which arc charged with organizing
the women's vote in Indiana, telling or
the work that has been lone by the
women Of the party IN other states and
discussing methods OF organization
that have been successfully employed
by the women's divisions. E. NJ. Was
muth. state chairman. and L. w. Hen
ley. secretary of the Republican state
committee, with their wives. were pres
ent at the meeting, joining Mr.. Hays in
consolidation TO the women upon
their entry into political affairs of the
party for the purpose Of voting. and
eongratulating them on the work al
ready done. It is expected that q chair
man of the women's executive commit
tee will be chosen at an early date. and
headquarters for the womens division
soon will be opened.

None knew her but TO love her.

The cheeks have lost their roses.
Her pure white soul. SO free from sin,
In heaven now reposes.
Sadly missed. but silently mourned BY

TURNS TO LITTLE ANGEL"

Finally the girl was sent TO a convent
in the neighborhood.
Here her character seemed TO change.
She became known as The Little Angel
OF the Convent" first. becaus of her
golden hair, and, second. because she
developed a beautiful voice.
Here again people of the neighbor-
hood innocently helped spoil her.
They told her her voice was too good
to be wasted. They put into her mind
dreams of a cabaret life in which she
could have all the lights and merriment
she wanted.
Then came the day when Bertha left
home.
Mrs. Balagh was considerably wor-
RED. although she heard from Bertha
frequently.
