MILITARY BURIAL .
FOR WAR HEROES
Bodies Brought Under
Escort From For
eign Soil =, :

The bodies of Charles Davis,
SON OF Mr.. and Mrs. George 8. Da-
Wis. and P. v. Cederberg. son Of G..
w. Cederberg of Firth, arrived In
Blaekfoot Tuesday evening, accord
ing 10 the telegraphic announcement
by the soldier guard accompanying
them.
Arrangements had been made for
the American Legion by Post Com
mander w. B. Goodnough and the
bier containing the body Of Charles
Davis was received by an escort OF
service men at the 1913 train.
Arrangements have been made by
the American Legion representatives
Of Blackfoot and Firth to bury
these soldier dead in military form,
with firing squad and procession
of ex-service men. Blackfoot places
of business have been asked to close
their doors from 4:30 to $3.50, that
being the time of services in Black
foot.
The body of Charles Davis, who
was accidentally shot while serving
with the First division in Germany
after the armistice, will be taken to
the Davis home at o'clock, where
the American Legion will have
charge of the services. Burial
will be made in the City cemetery.
George and Walter Davis, brothers,
also served in the army and were
over seas.
The body of P. V. Cederberg will
be inferred at Firth and SER
vices will be held there at 1870, as
many Legion members going from
Blackfoot to attend the services as
can be released from their work in
Blackfoot and surrounding country.
Cederberg served with the Second
division, one of the famous first of
American divisions to fight in
France, and he died of influenza
after the armistice. His brother
William, who now lives at Firth,
was also in the United States service
during the war.

Salvation Army
lnaugurates New
Working Plan

Following it's accustomed policy Of
fighting for the prevention rather
than waiting to cure the ills to
which humanity is heir, the Saliva
ton Army has announced new
program for countrywide service,
including citizen committees in all
counties.
The members of these boards or
committees will be accredited rep
resentatives of the Salvation Army
and will be known as advisory boards
and will have the duty Of studying
and so far as necessary remedying
local moral and social conditions.
The boards will be asked to in
vestigate conditions of poverty, un-
employment, juvenile delinquencies,
missing persons and illegitimacy.
Reports having been made by the
boards either a headquarters corps
will be established in the pivotal
city or town of the county or emer-
gency workers will be assigned to
the task of betterment.
The Salvation Army operates ju-
venile industrial and agricultural
schools, a boys friend bureau, young
woman's boarding homes, rescue and
maternity homes, industrial homes,
workingmen's hotels, free employ
ment bureau, fresh air camps, anti
suicide bureau, training schools for
work in the ranks of the Salvation
Army

SAVE THAT SUGAR PAMPHLET

Farmers who have received a
printed folder on the sugar question
lately from the Utah-Idaho Sugar
company are requested to keep it for
reference. The one we refer to is
headed, "a Statement to the Stock
holders of the Utah-Idaho Sugar
company" by c. w. Nibley, dated
July "a, 1920.
The editor of the Republican re-
ceived copy a few days ago and
after meditating over its statements
he began to remember some things
himself, and it all looked so funny
there will be more chapters on
"Beets, Politics and Progress" than
IL the folder Of July "a had not been
printed.
Just keep the folder to read again
a little later. and you will see some
things clearly that look cloudy now

BABY KILLED, SEVERAL ARE
INJURED IN AUTO ACCIDENT

The state highway between Aber-
den and Sterling was the scene of a
fatal automobile accident at $3.50
last evening, according to word tele-
phoned here last night.
An automobile owned by Parsons
brothers of Sterling and occupied by
John Parsons, his wife and six
months-old baby and Mrs. David
Reece and baby of Blackfoot and
driven by Albert Parsons, is report
ed to have turned turtle, killing the
Parsons baby and breaking Mrs.
Reece's arm in several places. 9th
err occupants of the machine were
said to have been seriously injured.
The accident was due, it was said,
to the front axle having become
sprung, causing the steering gear
to lock. The injured were removed
to Aberdeen for treatment.-Poca-
tello News.

would suffer a whole lot if the mat
ter were put off till the next general
election.
Then ]. J. Quillin said: Il think
if the people want Sunday pictures
they are entitled to a decision, but
-
The mayor: II don't know, but |
heard that the remonstrance petit
tion had sos votes or something like
that. I don't know. l haven't seen
anything of it,"
Mr.. Anderson: We'll, 1t is only
fair to Mr.. Heasley to take some &C
tion in the matter. He has complied
with the law"
Then j. J. Quillin suggested that
it be left to the economy commit
tee," at which giggle went the
rounds.
Somebody wanted to know what
ordinance would have to be reversed,
and Attorney ]. H. Andersen in
formed the members that it was a
state law which forbade Sunday pic
lures, excepting that in cities of the
class of Blackfoot and higher the
city councils could allow Sunday pic
lures acting on petitions containing
a number of names equal to SO per
cent or more of the number of votes
cast at the last general city election.
Then J. j. Quillin said that in
asmuch as he was not in favor of
granting the petition until he knew
more about the will of the people he
moved that the petition be not
granted. He was supported by the
votes of Boyle, Jones, Kinney and
Snyder. The votes of e. l.. Ander-
son and Cecil Clarke were cast in
favor of Sunday pictures.
In totum, the sentiment Of the
council, as expressed by J. ]. Quillin,
was in effect that people sign petit
tions without due consideration, and
the fact that they sign does not mean
that they actually favor the PROPOSE
tion contained.
Final arrangements were made
for the water system bond election
to be held Tuesday, August 10.

ROBBINS RETURNS

Ronald Robbins, popular violin
teacher of Blackfoot, returned last
week from Portland where he took
course in advanced violin tech
nique at the Ellison-White conser-
vatory of music. Mr.. Robbins praises
the course and the institution, from
which he gained much benefit in his
work, but he complains of the end
less rains to which Portland is ad-
dicted.
Miss Ruth Rushfeldt also attended
the conservatory to- take a course
in piano and harmony, not having
accepted place with the West Coast
Chautauqua company as reported
early in the summer, and as she in
tended when she went to Spokane
to visit the companyls headquar-
ters.

TRADE WAS SLOW;
Isl" STEPPED OUT

A few months ago one beautifu4
springy spring day when 1t looked
as tho it would pour down neither
rain nor business upon the town of
Blackfoot, Frank Silene, manager Of
the D. H. Biethan furniture store,
got the itch for action, started out
on his private self-starter and went
after business among his friends and
acquaintances. He sold half thou
sand dollars worth of easy chairs
that morning, and this week the
shipment came in. "Si'' sold these
chairs to men, some married, some
who have since married and some
yet to marry, to whom he appealed
on the point of preparedness"

new HOUSE ON
OLD HOMESTEAD
Entryman Staked Off
New House 26
Years Ago

"A new farm house is just being
completed at the Trego ranch, now
owned on the fifty-fifty plan by Har-
ry and Byrd Trego. The house has
been long time on the way. The
Tregos first took up the land in 1885
and Byrd Trego staked off the pres
ent mansion in 1892, but had only
forty dollars worth Of boards, so
after marking the location Of the
real house he put up shack to last
a year or two till he could make
some money, which latter task prov
ed to be long job. After piecing
out with one old shack and addi-
tion after another for twenty-eight
years, he sold half interest to get
money to put into the building fund.
The house was planned by Mrs.
Byrd Trego and Harry Trego and
his wife, and was built by James
Yancey 1t consists of about six
rooms and full basement, all we'll
finished and modern. 1t has buff
brick walls on cement base, with
open porch in front, and closed porch
at the rear. 1t is equipped with
furnace heat, water system, bath,
hot water equipment, electric wiring
for light and power, individual rooms
in the basement for coal, milk, fruit
and vegetables, wash room, play
room and furnace room.
The kitchen is equipped with a
coal stove and an oil stove, a sink.

drawers, kneading boards and a

linen closet and chute for taking

able for use as dining room when
desired. The living room Is large
and has a maple floor designed for
use as a dancing floor for the Trego
children when they reach theIdanc-
ing age. The house is supplied with
an unusual amount of windows on
the east and north, the plan being to
have plenty of subdued light. The
front door is built large and mostly
of glass paneling, with a loaded
window bordering the door on each
side, matching it in design.
A wide pavement extends out to
the road, lining out from the middle
of the house and pointing up the
middle of the street that has always
led north from the east and west
road at the point where the house
stands. The water system extends
to the stockyards, and will supply
the barn when it is added to the
plan. The several old buildings that
have disgraced the landscape for the
past generation will be removed or
rebuilt. for machine sheds, bunk
house poultry house and granary.
The Tregos are working on plans
for landscaping the tract in front
of the premises, and for making an
attractive green tract in part Of the
area in front of the stables.
Most of the farm has been we'll
graded, but they have been long
time getting around to improve the
place as to. buildings, and the two
families are concentrating their
means on that undertaking now.
Harry Trego and his family are liv-
ing on the place and it is designed
for their permanent home
