HOME SERVICE FOR
EVERYBODY IN NEED

Do you know what the present day
Cross is?
Many people do not know that be-
sides completing the work for eX-serv-
ice men, especially the disabled, it pro-
vides the same neighborly service to
families in general that it formerly
gave families Of soldiers, sailors and
marines.
"HOme Service covers a wide and
varied field" says Frederick G. Mum
roe, general manager of the American
Red Cross "It gives aid to families
in solving such problems as budget
planning, marketing, tiding over times
of financial stress, keeping children in
school, helping crippled children, wild
owed and deserted mothers, children
backward in school and children in
conflict with the laws 1t renders serv-
ice to the homeless and transient, to
the illiterate, to tenement jewellers, to
the unemployed, and gives friendly as
sistance and advice to foreign speak
ing groups"
In4eaddition to helping families in
the solution of their own problems,
Home Service helps in strengthening
the weak spots in the social life Of
communities. 1t joins hands with 9TH
ers to make communities safer,
healthier and happier.
Organizing action along lines in
which the community is already inter-
ested is one of the objects Of Home
Service. It has established community
meetings, patriotic celebrations, pag-
eants and picnics. Rest rooms, recre-
alton facilities, play supervisors and
moving pictures have been provided.
Through Home Service other agencies
are Influenced to bring about improved
commercial amusements and better
school facilities and to promote travel
ing libraries as we'll as to secure coun-
ty agricultural and home demonstra-
ton agents.
If you need assistance at any time,
go to the secretary of the nearest Red
Cross chapter and describe the situa-
ton. Your confidence will be sacredly
respected and every possible effort will
be made to aid you.

At the special meeting Friday
evening of the Blackfoot post of the
American Legion two delegates and
two alternates were elected to repre-
sent the post at the legion's semi

this post, the alternates going in case
the delegates are prevented, when
the time comes to go.
1t was announced that all plans
for obtaining hall and quarters
in the new Three-A garage building
were indefinite because of hitch in
the arrangements. For the present
the legion will continue to occupy its

The beet growers and the Utah
Idaho Sugar company reached an
agreement in their meetings at
Blackfoot last Friday. The mass
meeting voted to accept one of the
two propositions made by the Sugar
company and to leave it to the indi-
vidual choice of the grower. to sign
the one he prefers. 1t is not so good
a contract as the organization has
been contending for, but the business

the growers to take due care not to

Indebtedness has to be carried over
to the harvest of 1920, makes it
risky time to take steps involving
great risk. The beet growers did not

A Good Thing
For Farmers

The notice of the Idaho Grazing
association published in this issue
opens up a new service and new op-
portunity for farmers having a few
animals which they wish cared for at
small expense for, the summer.
We congratulate the grazing asso-
citation on the spirit of enterprise
and their willingness to undertake
this task for the public good and at
such low rates that it precludes the
possibility to make much if any prof
its. We understand it is undertaken
in the spirit of service, desiring to
better the condition and increase the
opportunity of the man with a loc-
al problem on his hands such as he
has been trying to solve with an ex-
pensive pasture or by patronizing a
dry herd that was not well managed
or that had obstacles in the way
which could not be overcome by one
or two men operating on a small
scale.

Bridge Gangs Busy on
Various Sections
of Highways

Road superintendent, w. c. Stone,
reports two miles of the gravel coat
ing already accomplished at the en-
trance of the town of Aberdeen, and
expects it will be finished by about
the twenty third of March.
Smoothing the road with the
grader to fill the ruts and holes has
been completed from Pingree to the
county line south Of Aberdeen. Mr..
Stone says that if people will keep
out OF the ruts on that line, if they
will drive all over the surface to keep
it ironed down alike all over 1T will
be a great benefit to the road and
save much expense in keeping it in
repair. When the grading was COM
pleted last week it was almost as
smooth as pavement the whole dis
tance.
The graveling of the Moreland-
Riverside road is completed. They
placed three inches of gravel on the
earth grade and it has been rolled
in till it is hard and smooth.

PLAN COMMUNITY
COAL Bins HERE
Estimates and Survey
for Proposition Have
Been Made by
Short Line

w. l.. Young and his daughter
Mrs. Kleta Evans, have a good site
for a community coal bin where
they can develop highline to handle
coal on a gravity system from the
railroad cars into the wagons or
trucks. The property lies on the east
side of the railroad track, just south
OF the Rich lane. The survey has
been made, and the Oregon Short
Line construction department has
given them an estimate of the cost of
building the highline and coal bins.
The plan calls for a siding leaving
the main line at the cemetery and
extending southwark into the low
grounds by an ascending trestle.
There is slope or grade of four feet
and by building the trestle with the
ascending grade 1t will place the coal
cars sixteen feet above the level of
the ground at the. coal bins.
This enables them to dump the
coal from the cars, into the bins and
from the bins into the wagons.
Definite. arrangements for financing
and constructing them have not yet
beet made.

four or five minutes to make the
trip, and with his facilities he might
have done lie even quicker if he had
been nSwanting to make a record.
1t used to be that when anything
happened to the power line between
Blackfoot and American Falls, some
body had to go to the livery stable
and hitch up rig, and then drive
over his section of the pole line,
while another rig drove out from
each of the other stations, till they
found the trouble, and fixed it..
After they got good roads and autos
they made it in quicker time and
people did not have to sit in the
dark so long. Last year the soulless
corporation sometimes called the
power trust, built line to connect
with the power plant at Grace, south
of Soda Springs, so that if anything
went wrong on the pole line to
