Twin Falls and Power counties, rep
resenting the owners Of small flocks
of sheep In those counties, met in the
courthouse at Jerome on Thursday

Woolgrowers' association, the pur-
pose OF which is to advance the in
terests of sheep breeding and WOOL
growing and especially to develop
better methods of marketing wool.
The first five counties mentioned
above are expected to pool about thir-
teen carloads, or 100000 pounds of
wool in this organization. In addi-

American Eagle
Nears Extinction

A warning against the threatened
extinction of the bald or American
eagle, the national bird of the United
States, was issued Saturday by the
American Museum of National His
tory, which stated that reports in
Dictated that more than one-half,
and perhaps, three-quarters of the
entire species already have been
sacrificed"
Destruction of the birds is attri-
buted to hunters in Alaska, who are
killing them for bounty paid by the
territorial government. Never num-
erous, the museum authorities say,
more than $500 eagles were slain in
a few months in their favorite breed
ing ground, the Alaskan peninsula.
Hunters have extended their opera
lions into the British provinces adj
joining Alaska, it is said, to swell
their gains.
After declaring that the Ameri-
can eagle preys chiefly on large ro-
dents harmful to farm crops, for the
control of which the government an
nually expends large sums, the mu-
scum declares that tales of the
American eagles destructiveness to
game or domestic ANIMALS are for the
greater part pure fiction" The bird,
it says, is migratory and therefore no
state or territory can claim the right
to destroy it, that right being vested
in the federal government.
Recalling the fact that the wild
pigeon, formerly found in incredible
numbers in certain parts of the
United States, had been utterly
wiped out by unrestricted shooting
and the destruction of it's nests" the
museum says that only the prompt
passage of a federal law will save the
American eagle from the same fate.

In the lower grades this may con-
sist of the reproduction of short
talks or articles read by the teacher,
and the larger pupils may write up
on such subjects as Lafayette, Frank
lin in France, jefferson in France,
Joffre, hero of the Marine, Rocham-
beau, how the American boy or girl
feels in contributing to Americas
gift to France, and other kindred
subjects that may present themselves
to the teacher.
After the work as above suggested
it will only be necessary on Wednes-
day afternoon to remind the pupils
to explain the plan to their parents
and to bring their pennies on the fol-
lowing day. BY Friday noon, hand
the money to your principal, with
name of teacher, amount and number
and per cent of pupils contributing.
The newspaper report will include a
list of the one hundred per cent
rooms.

AMERICAS GIFT TO FRANCE
: 1.-The Atlantic ocean is SO vast the
seagulls do not dare to cross it y
But from one side of that great ocean
to the other, hearts are touching. F"
Words by a French schoolgirl.
Thirty-five years ago the French
people placed the Statue Of Liberty
in New York harbor. The $250,0O0
which the splendid statue cost was
contributed freely by the people OF
France. The rich and poor, the
young and old, even the widow gave
her mite; all were eager to have a
share in the gift to America.
In like manner America now pro-
poses to give to France great Lib
erty statue. Not from chosen few
shall it come; but from all America.
Twenty million American school chill
dren will be allowed to give one pen
ney each to help build this monument
which, at cost of perhaps 100000,
will be placed on the Marine river,
to mark the spot where the Hun
forces were stopped in their great
drive on Paris, which was, in fact, a
drive on the liberty of the world.
Next Thursday, April 1st, is the
day set for the pupils of our schools
to bring their pennies for this wor-
thy purpose. However, If only the
contribution be made, even if ever so
freely, our pupils will miss much of
the inspiration, sympathy and patri-
otism that may be developed by this
gift to France. ! suggest that dur
ing the remaining days preceding
Thursday short talks on France be
given by the teacher. The history
and geography Of France, her govern
ment compared, with ours, the char
acteristics of the French people, the
part France played in the great war,
the great Importance of stopping the
German army at the Marine and 9TH

Coal Strike Settlement Commission
Awards Advance Of $200, 000, 900

Washington. President Wilson on

In refusing the demand of the min

it would be equivalent to an additional
cost of more than S100,0O0,OO0.

Purchase of twenty-three pure

Mr.. Cammack and A. T. O'Reilly,

made the purchase.
The buying Of producing cows for

in keeping with the opportunities
that were offered the club young

The retail dealers in a Michi-
gan city opposed the purchase OF
q down-at-the-heel daily paper by
the proprietor of its prosperous
afternoon competitor "Why,
said some OF the merchants, "if
B gets mold of that other pa
per he will have dictatorial pow
er in fixing advertising rates for
the whole city" But the deal
went through in spite of the OPP
position and within year the
rates were raised Then came
the astonishing re,OlDtiOn. The
merchants did not grumble at the
higher rates because the expert
management that come into au-
thority with the old paper in
creased its circulation, improved
its editorial quality and made il
a valuable advertising medium

The merchants learned that their
own prosperity was connected

an increase in enterprise, in re-

prosperity. The organization
which begins at the other end of
the matter and expects to de-
velop resOurcefulness and vision
after the community has become
very prosperous will reap bit
ter disappointment for its follow

excellent and a comfortable thing,
but you can't achieve it by cheap,
superficial or childish community
thinking.
Nearly every city, large or
small, has a group of business
men who insistently cry for
more factories" but who are un-
willing to give thought to the
reasons that underly such growth.
Frequently these men occupy
dominant positions in the busi-
ness and political circle. If they
are to remain as community
leaders they must grasp the fun
damentals underlying community
growth.
In Germany before the war

showed the world that it is the

trial efficiency is a matter of
trained minds and trained hands.
1t does not come by paying bo-
muses. to factories" or by noisily
demanding that somebody get
busy and bring some more pay
rolls to Ashland"
Before community will tackle
the task OF linking Education with
Industry and Business, there must
be an organized group of men
who can lead in that direction and
who have thought out the prob
lem so that their leadership will
be sagacious. American manu-
facturers are, rapidly turning to
the schools for the future supply
of trained shop men. But Until
the manufacturer and the educa.
tor are brought into direct per-
sonal contract through a commu-
nifty organization, neither can
have an adequate conception of
tn requirements of the other.
Just as Education must be
yoked up with the everyday life
OF the ordinary man, if broad
community prosperity is to be
attained, so business men must
be taught that their interests are
so completely interviewer that
disaster to one means loss to all.
Not many years ago the banks
of Chicago were so jealous of one

pyramid his loans right among
the banks of his own city with
