FOUND: "A Better FIGHT
ER THAN MITCHELL
LEWIS.
MONTPELIER THEATRE, sATUR-
DAY NIGHT, AUGUST z

Followers of Mitchell Lewis
come to expect at least one real fist
fight in any production to which
their rugged hero lends his person
atty and talents. While they will
not be disappointed in this, his new
starring vehicle, king Spruce" the
Holman Day story OF the Maine for
ests, the most rabid of Mitchell Lewis
fans will have to concede the palm
for superior two-fisted battling in
the new w. w Hodkinson release
to another.
Joe Ray is the individual to whom
go the fistic laurels. And when IL
can be said in all truthfulness that
fighting is the least Of his qualifi-
cations as screen actor a perform
ance OF uncommon merit may be
looked for from this practically un-
known player. Lewis runs second
In the fistic handicap because his
furious combat is against one man,
while Ray is called upon to battle at
one time no less than twenty brawny
iumbermen, every one of whom is
his equal in weight and height.

HAVE CHILDREN
REGISTERED

Parents of school children who at
tend, or expect to attend, the schools
Of Montpelier this coming term,
should see to it that the names Of
the children of school age are re-
Clustered on the school census Of the
city. We are informed that last year
there was an attendance of over two
hundred more students In the city
schools than was registered in the
school census OF September, 1919.
The only way the school officials can
account for this large number OF un-
registered pupils is that people move
onto farms and ranches in the spring
and do not return to the city until
after the school census enumerators
have completed the count. There are
also quite number of out-of-town
people who move to town during the
school period to permit their child
rem attending school
It is very important thai the names
OF every pupil who attends school in
Montpelier should be included in the
census, and parents would confer q
great favor on school officials If they
would render assistance to this end

ODD FELLows no CELEBRATE.
Three Days Outing at Big Springs to
Be Enjoyed-Many Lodges Will
Be REPRESENTED

Idaho Falls, Idaho.-A genuine pic
mic lasting three days, August 10, IL
and IL, is being planned by the Odd
Fellow and Rebekah lodges of south
eastern Idaho in the famous Big
Springs camping ground on the yell
Iowstone highway and commonly
known as one OF the beauty spots
among the pines and the mountain
streams of Idaho.
The picnic is for all Odd Fellows,
Rebekahs, their families and friends.
The lodges and the cities that are
taking a special interest in the cele-
bration and outing are Dubois, st.
Anthony. Rexburg, Roberts, Idaho
Falls. Shelley. Blackfoot, Ashton,
Mackay, Moor, Arco, Aberdeen, Poca
tello, American Falls, Buhl, Mont
pelier, Twin Falls and Soda Springs,
representing over thirty lodges.
It Ia the plan to have everyone pro-
vide their own lunches and 'eatables
and also their bedding and tent How
evr, those making the trip by train
will have the privilege OF tourist or
standard Pullman sleepers going and
returning, and also for the three
days on the Big Springs side track.
IL the number going TO tn picnic over
the Oregon Short Line railroad is as
large as anticipated the fare from
Pocatello and return with sleeper will
not exceed $12; this also includes
the use of tn sleeper for the three
days on the side track during the pic
mic. The fare from other points on
the main line will be proportionately
the same.
This three day outing for the fra
ternity OF Odd Fellows and their
friends will no doubt be an affair
OF special significance. It is estimated
that about eight hundred people will
attend.

IL AT THE THEATRES "
WHAT'S YOUR HUSBAND
DOING?" MERRY PIC
TURE OF YOUTH.

Doris May and Douglas MacLean
will be the attraction at the Gem
Theatre Saturday, August 7th in .
screen version Of the stage play,
Whats Your Husband Doing?"
The picture is described as a rollick-
ing comedy about young husbands
and wives and grand mix-up at
lively roadhouse.
Miss May has the role of Beatrice
Ridley, newly married ana suspic-
ious of the notes which her husband
gets every morning from Honey
suckle Inn" She consults Douglas
MacLean in the role Of John Wild
CAST, a lawyer, and they resolve to
investigate. In the meantime, the
wives Of Widgast and Pidgeon, his
partner, have become jealous of the
divorce business which their spouses
find necessary to talk over with
pretty correspondents and other de-
signing creatures.
The real reason for young Ridley's
letters are that he owns a share In
the Inn and is trying to sell out. On
the same evening that he goes to
close the deal, taking Pidgeon with
him to draw up the papers, Widgast
and the lawyers wives and Beatrice
also appear at the road house. And to
cap the climax, the place is raided
by the police. Matters are cleared up
the next morning at police court in
a most amusing fashion.
The film, which was produced by
Thomas H. Ince, is said to provide q
fine vehicle for these youthful stars
who have already established them
selves in high favor with screen fans

OFFICERS WE'RE
ON THE JOB

Much credit is due the officers OF
Montpelier for the quick manner in
which they apprehended and brought
to Justice two crooks last Thursday
night while the men were in the act
Of looting the Three Rule Store. This
class or crooks too often make sue
cess Of their dirty campaign of car
rying away honest peoples wares
instead Of earning an honest living
as the men are endeavoring to do
whose places they maliciously enter
and loot.
Waterman @. H. Buck display
ed no little nerve in laying a trap
for these men after seeing them in
the store in the act Of filling stolen
suitcases with valuable goods. Mr.,
Buck was given Immediate assistance
by Officers Robson, Pugmire and
Deputy Sheriff Hitler, and between
all the officers a good Job was
done and the crooks landed and
brought to Justice.

CHICAGO HAS SOME APPETITE,
BY LLOYD LEHRBAs

The United States bureau OF mar
kets has just announced statistics of
shipments Of eight fruits and vege-
tables, apples, peaches, cantaloupes,
strawberries, cabbage, white potatoes
tomatoes and onionH,-received in
Chicago annually that show $4,000
cars or enough to make up freight
train $50 miles long, roll into the
second largest city in the United
States every year.
Idaho, 1000 miles away helps to
feed Chicago multitudes with large
shipments OF potatoes and apples,
and contributes few cars Of peaches
to the city's sweet tooth each year.
Idaho cantaloupes, famous In the
west, are not to be found on the Chi
cago market, however, and Idaho ap-
parently has not taken advantage of
larger shipments or peaches from the
Payette country 1t could make to Chi
cago.
Last year, according to the market
bureaus statistics Idaho shipped 242
cars OF apples to Chicago. Illinois,
Michigan, New York and Washington
led Idaho, while Utah and other west
ern states traiked way behind. IdahO's
apple shipments to Chicago In 1918
totaled SO, showing great increase
last year. Michigan, Minnesota and
Wisconsin shipped more potatoes
than Idaho,s Tel cars consumed by
Chicagoans. Were q fraction of the
grand total of $4,000 cars for the
year.
Only II cars of peaches from Idaho
entered into the 1900 cars consumed
In Chicago last year coming mostly
from Arkansas, Colorado and Georgia
Utah shipped IN 81 cars. Chicago
used 1000 cars of cabbage. 1000
cars OF cantaloupes and 1900 cars OF
onions, but Idaho made no contribu-
tion to that amount. Because travel
ers in the west have formed q high
opinion OF Idaho cantaIoupes, eHpec-
tally those from the Payette country,
the statistics showing Idaho had not
shipped one full carload came as g
surprise. Canta1Oupe growers should
investigate the Chicago market. to
