JEROME NEEDS HOMES

Since the termination of the war
and the signing OF the armistice it
has come to our notice that in
number of our neighboring towns,
as well as other parts of the state,
that improvement companies are be-
ing organized composed of residents
of the various towns, whose object
is the building of homes for sale and
for rent and the loaning of the mon
ey to those who wish to build for
themselves.
That Jerme is very much in need
of such an Improvement company is
very evident. for no where do we
know of a more progressive town
and one that is forging to the front
as one of the foremost towns. as is
Jerome. Homes are what are need
ed in Jerome. either to sell or ia
rent. as new corners arriving here
find II impossible to bring their fam
lilies because of the lack of avail
able houses Some are here to re
main and. being limited with funds
are unable 10 build, but with llttl'
assistance Jerome would witness ;
great building boom this cominl
year.
To our own knowledge there are
number of families living at the ho
tells and private rooming houses VIII
are seeking homes to buy or rent
but are unable to do so. a fact which
when IL becomes known outside
, would cause newcomers 30 hesitat

In Jerome there are men with TN

, company and who are interested

WAR WORKERS CLING
TO NATIONS CAPITOL

The speed shown by war workers,
whose Washington jobs have expired.
in attaching themselves to other po-
sitions in the governments service.
gives evidence that the capitol holds
an appeal to the patriots. who have
been working here for $1,000 and
S14OO a year. as compared TO half
those salaries al home. Breakfasts
are still a dollar and a half, and
rooms cost So a night, at the bon
ton hotels of Washington, but there
are lots of ways in which the young
men and women who are working III
Washington can live at considerable
less than their salaries, and have CON
siderable left over for their amuse-
mcuts.

SAYS POISON GASSES USED
Is RESPONSIBLE FOR Flu

DR.. Croft of Chicago recently in
an address before the Chicago Medi-
cal society stated that the present
epidemic of influenza was, in his
opinion. caused by an "irritated at
mosphere." Poison gas used on the
battlefelds of Europe are supposed TO
have started all this trouble.
His theory is that the disease Is
caused by inhaling small amounts OF
depressing. highly irritated, high
density gas. especially at night, when
the air is charged with moisture.
He says further in support of his
contention, that its spread is far too
rapid to be caused to be caused by
bodily contact and too erratic for
germ transmission.
