CONSTRUCTION BIDS ARE
TOO HIGH ON ROADS

Because the lowest bidders on two
state highway jobs asked more mon
ey than is available for the projects,
only one of three pieces of highway
construction was disposed of Monday
as a result of an opening of bids held
Saturday in the state department of
public works at Boise.
On the low bid of $92,516, the
Frank Powell company won the con-
tract for construction of section of
the Idaho-Pacific highway lying be-
tween the town of Mountain Home
and the eastern boundary Of the
Mountain Home highway district.
The bid of S. c. Comerford for con
struction of highway from Noun
tain Home to Colgate. (part of the
Idaho Central highway was less for
Itunate. The Comerford company of
fered a contract for S104,767.31, which
sum, though the smallest asked, was
more than the state has available for
the highway. The bid was tentative
ly accepted until the state highway
department shall have determined
upon the advisibility of cutting down
the size of the project.
All bids on construction of the Ida
ho-Pacific highway through Glenns
Ferry highway district were rejected
because the lowest bidder asked $43,
353.40. This was much over the sum
available for the task.

GooDlNG is NO GUTTER;

In an interview in the Boise
Statesman Frank r. Gooding. former
governor and perpetual candidate for

still fighting disloyalty as disloyalty

had begun to think F. R. a dead one
and were not bothering their heads
much about him, but somehow he
manages to get into the papers. The
last campaign. it would appear, did
not break him financially, for here he
is again: 1AJAAa
"The fight against forces inimical

ABOVE ALL, DON'T GET SCARED;
BE PRUDENT WHEN FLU CALLS.

DR.. Hammer reported yesterday that
all the flu cases in the county are in
satisfactory condition, those in the
Lemhi valley being especially light.
The cases at Shoup and Ulysses
where two deaths occurred, were
more in the virulent form of the NAL
ady last year. All the Ulysses and
Shoup patients are now well on the
road to recovery, as are also those at
Northfork. There seems to be no
cause for spreading alarming re-
ports. All cases are being properly
attended to both as to the help OF
physician and competent nursing
The generally accepted admonition is
to take care not to permit flu pa
tient to expose himself too soon
even after the fever has subsided
But above all don't get scared.

birthplace and peeYish plow con.
vince him that New York is the place
where he belongs, His quicktem-
pered daddy vetoes the idea, but as
John Morgan, Jr., Mr.. Harron runs
away in the night. He becomes a
struggling inventor in New York

jump. And he stays away much
longer than he told Jennie Timber
lake he would before he returned to
Happy Valley, and he had asked her
to wait for him.
But in the end he made more
than $25 a week, so much that he
could return home at an opportune
and critical time. For that home
coming Mr.. Griffith has created a
scene startling in tensity and unique
in denouement and which represents
Griffith craftsmanship in it's highest
IA scene of superlative charm and
power.
