"Bashful Mr.. Bobbs"
Well Presented by
Ferncliffe Players

Great credit is due the Ferncliffe
they presented "Bashful Mr.. BObbs," a
comedy that showed the fine mettle of
the members of the cast. AS this is
the first play offered the public by
this organization it is good sign
that several plays will be offered them
next season by the Ferncliffe players
who certainly covered themselves with
glory at their first appearance.
The play was presented at Epiphany
Hall, Grantwood, the new mecca OF
Grantwood social events. large
crowd of eager, enthusiastic people
was on hand.
While the twelve members of the
of their many friends, Mr.. Joseph
NJ. Scott. the director, deserves MUCH
credit for the coaching of the amateurs,
that made them so near the class of
professionals.
Mr.. John ID. Coysh as bashful Mr..
Bobbs, was fine in the various predica-
ments he was pressed into by his
cousin, MarstOn Bobbs, which was act
ed to perfection by James Madden,
who loves every girl he meets more
than others. Helen Flanagan did very
well in the part of Katherine Hender
son. wife of Fred Henderson who is Il
henpecked husband. This part was
played by James Gormley, Jr. He
made good in his first appearance.
Marguerite Murtagh as Mrs Virgins,
the landlady, had the audience with
her during the entire show. But the
person who had the big part in the
play and had the audience laughing the
entire evening was Harry Dietrich as
Obadiah Stump, the country boy. Lily
LeClerg as Francis Whitaker, an ath-
letic girl, played her part to a nicely.
Grace Publes as society belle also
did very nice. Nothing could have
been sweeter than Margaret MahOney
in the role of a Delaware Peach, one
of Marston Bobbs' sweethearts The
part of the movie queen who plays the
tragic role was well filled by Anna
Gormley who was graciously received
by the audience. Lavelle Coysh as
julie the actress maid, and who
vamps Obadiah played her part well.
Music for the occasion was furnished
by the Metropolitan Four of Fort Lee
Dancing was enjoyed until the wee
sma hours of Thursday morning.

MISGUIDED YOUTH
AVENCES MOTHER
Mother Driven From
Home. Children Abus-
ed. Boy Kills F ather

NEWARK, Ohio.-Brooding over
the alleged mistreatment of his
mother, two brothers and sister
by his father, ex-Judge Walter A.
Irvine, Angus Irvine, 81 and Grip
pied, returned to the family home
five miles from here Tuesday night
and shot and killed his father from
ambush, according to story told
Sheriff w. A. Bryan, by his sister,
Sarah.
Angus was arrested and a charge
of murder in the first degree will
be placed against him.
After he had killed his father,
Angus gathered his brother, Patrick,
12, his brother Archibald, 8, and his
sister Sarah, 13, together and they
all went to upstairs rooms and went
to bed, and to sleep, leaving the body
of their father lying on the floor.
In the morning the children arose,
according to the story, came down
stairs, Angus cooked breakfast and
the four children at the meal with
in ten feet of the place where the
body of their father still lay. They
did the chores and then Patrick drove
the family horse with Angus in the
buggy, to the city. Angus alighted,
drew one hundred dollars which he
had saved from the bank, boarded
the interurban car and rode to Co
lumbus to brink back his mother,
who left the home three weeks ago,
following a quarrel with her hus-
band.
Patrick returned to the home.
After her two brothers had left
home, Sarah ran across the snow
covered field to the home of William
Oatman, a neighbor and told them
Of the tragedy.

HARDING TALKS
in NEW ORLEANS
States That High Tariff
Would Saved Mil

NEW ORLEANS, La.-President
elect Harding will not stop at Vera
Cruz, it was officially announced
The steam ship company was unable
to make arrangements to stop the
boat at that port and thus relieved
the senator of the burden of making
delicate decision. Senator Harding
made no statement regarding the
STOP.
Response came from the crowd
when the president-elect declared
that high tariff would have saved
millions of dollars to the sugar in
dustry, in which New Orleans is
particularly interested.
What is good for the north is
good for the SOUTH" the president
elect declared in his appeal for sup
port for a protective tariff. what
we need is an America on firm and
stable financial footing and l am 60
ing to use all my efforts to put us
there" the senator said.

READING TABLES
MEET APPROVAL
Schools in the County
Adopting This New
Idea

The work of installing reading
tables in the schools thruout the
county is progressing we'll. The in
stallation has been completed in a
number of schools.
The idea is to broaden the minds
of the scholars and train their read
ing tastes along constructive lines.
The school boards will furnish two
or three magazines for the tables and
others will be added by parents and
he teachers. The reading is under the
supervision of the teacher and the
County School Superintendent and
wherever possible articles relative to
the work of the pupils are called to
their attention by the teacher.
The Groveland school has reported
to Mrs. Fauconer that results of the
work so far have been very satisfac-
tory and that they are much pleased
with the idea.
: In many instances over the county
the scholars have made the tables
for their schools and the plan seems
to be meeting with unqualified sup
port.

CHRISTIAN HERALD
HAS CONSOLIDATION
Forty Two Y e ar Old
Publication Joins With
World Outlook

The World Outlook, a magazine
with 10000 circulation published in
New York City, has just consolidated
with the Christian Herald, another
publication having a circulation of
one and half million. The consoli
dation went into effect with the first
of November.
The World Outlook was only six
years old and the Christian Herald
was in it's 42nd year. This CONSOLE
dation was brought about by the
high cost of production and the
scarcity of paper to print their mag
azines on. The two magazines have
been covering pretty much the same
field, educating people along similar
lines and they could easily consoli-
date and be represented as before
in the consolidation.

IDAHO FALLS WILL
ASK LOOP SERVICE
Want Lincoln, Iona, Am
mon, Ririe, Newdale
and Menan Served

IDAHO FALLS.--Plans are well
under way to request the Short Line
to put on a several-times-daily pas
senger service by means of motor
cars on the loop in and out of Idaho
Falls, bringing the towns on the loop
into direct daily service to Idaho
Falls.
The Short Line several years ago
completed the building of loop
around the valley" and new towns
have sprung up and older towns have
increased in business Importance as
result.
These towns are connected with a
train service, but it is figured that
the service can be largely increased
by the installation and operation of
motor cars operating for passenger,
mail, express and light freight traf-
fic making from one to, three trips
daily, bringing number Of good
towns and communities into closer
touch with Idaho Falls.
The matter has been taken up
directly with number of represen-
tatives of those towns and the idea
appeals. Among the towns that
could be served by the motor service
are Lincoln, Iona, Ririe, Newdale
and a number of others on that part
of the loop, and Lewisville, Menan
and other towns on the other part
Of the loop. The matter will be pre-
sented to the Short Line in formal
way, and probably taken before the
Public Utilities Commission.

NJ. Shipley, United States veterin-
arian inspector will be in Bingham
county November 20, to test for
tuberculosis among cattle. Any far
mers wishing to have their herds
tested may do so free of charge at
this time. tuberculosis is causing
heavy loss thruout the county and is
transmitable, it is therefore quite
important for the owner of cattle to
know that his stock is free from the
disease.
Those wishing to secure the SER
vices of Mr.. Shipley should leave
word at the Farm Bureau office.
Mr.. Shipley will be in the county
several days and appointments should

Peter Johnson Perfects
Steering Device for
Vessels; Successful

Peter A. Johnson, former resi-
dent Of Blackfoot, who moved away
from here about the year 1907, now
a resident of Portland, Ore, has in
vented an air compressor steering
device for steamboats,.
Instead of having a man on the
wheel working day and night as
under the old system that has pre-
vailed for hundreds of years, the new
device permits man to sit in his
office and by moving levers as easily
controlled as steering gear Of an
automobile, he controls the move
ment of the rudder and holds the
ship to her course better than with
the old device. The jerking and vi
brating caused by the force of the
waves against the rudder is neutral
lied by Johnson's device because the
power is exerted against the COM
pressed air. Other devices have been
in use for some time controlled by
steam, but the air device has been
recommended in preference to every
thing else. Mr.. Johnson's invention
has been in use for several months
on steamer on the Pacific coast and
test was recently made on the
Columbia river during storm with
a large board of experts taking OBJ
servations on it. The next test that
is likely to be made is on a sub
marine for the navy department.
Mr.. Johnson married Blackfoot
girl, Miss Tess Staples and both are
we'll known to many Blackfoot peo-
pie, who will rejoice in their good
fortune.
Mr.. Johnson has for some time
Fbeen foreman for the Standifer Con-
strGction company of Portland.

RETURN OF WAR
BOARD PLANNED
Western and Southern
Senators Plan Action
to Help Farmers

WASHINGTON from
the western and southern states are
considering legislative action to re-
vive the war finance corporation.
They said this was the only agency
which could give immediate help to
agricultural interests in the "aprall-
ing' situation resulting from the
sudden fall in prices.
A conference of western senators
and representatives to discuss the
matter will be called, it was said,
when Chairman Gronna, North
Dakota, of the senate agricultural
committee arrives in Washington.
One suggestion is that congress
adopt a mandatory resolution direct
ing the immediate revival Of the cor
poration. ~.,H.~.>.> ..,... NJ.
In an appeal to President Wilson
to restore the corporation, Senator
Dial Of South Carolina wrote that he
had discussed the matter with Sec
retary Houston, and added:
81 must say that he does not COM
prehend in the least the situation, or
he does not desire to assist the Amer
ican producer, and feel that it is alb
solutely useless for anyone to confer
with him further on the subject.
81 have conferred with all the
leaders of our party and | have not
yet found a single man who does not
agree that the war finance corpora
tion should resume operations at
once"
: The executive committee of the ma
tional board Of farm organizations
will meet here next Monday to dis
cuss possible relief measures.
Delegations named at the recent
agricultural conference here also
asked Secretary Houston to rehabil-
itate the war finance corporation and
were met with the statement that it
was not necessary, the secretary
quoting exports to show the amount
of agricultural products which have
moved overseas.
Passage of the Capper-Hersman-
Volstead bill legalizing collective
marketing will be urged by the farm
ers' representatives at the coming
session of congress, it was said. They
will also ask for congressional in
vestigation of credit and rates of
interest. .s.z-4A T. - 49,

QUIT RAISING BEET SEED

Announcement is made from the
Idaho Falls office that the United
States Beet Seed company is going to
close out it's business in this valley
and quit raising beet seed.
Before the war most Of our beet
seed came from Germany, but during
the war when that supply was cut
off for the most part, the United
States went to raising beet seed and
large tracts in the Snake river valley
were leased or purchased and de-
voted to that industry. Beets are
continually growing smaller on most
Of the farms Of this valley and
whether due to defective seed or not
is an open question. The announce
ment that these companies will quit
raising seed does not indicate that
1t has been successful.

OLD MONTGOMERY
TRACT FAVORED
BY CITY COUNCIL
Twenty Lots North of
Hesse T eed Yards Be-
lieved Best Suited
for Water Site
WILL MAKE PARK
Hitching Posts to be Put
in, Pavement and
Wells Sunk

The city council met on Wednes-
day evening instead of Tuesday
evening, the mayor being i'll on the
night of the regular meeting. Prac-
tically all of the evening was de-
voted to study of the questions con-
fronting them regarding the new
water system. The committee appoint
ed to investigate the sites to be pur-
chased for the new system reported
favorable on the purchase of 20 lots
from D. A. Jenkins north of the
Heese Feed Yards at $3.50 each or
$4,000 for the tract. The council had
under consideration the use Of some
land in the city park for the water
station and wells but they would have
to lay longer main to conduct the
water to town and the additional
cost of the large pipes reaching that
much farther out from the center
would cost about $4,000 or double
the amount of the Jenkins site:
The council practically decided to
purchase the jenkins lots and sink
wells and establish their main water
station there. They will improve the
grounds and make as much of it into
park as they can and establish
hitching racks around that locality
for hitching teams. The plan is to
have it all paved and keep it in good
condition SO they can wash it down
like the rest of the bitulithic streets.
There were four representatives Of
firms manufacturing pipes suitable
for water systems. Two representing
the manufacturers of steel pipes and
two representing the makers of cast
iron pipes. All of them were profuse
in their promises of prompt delivery,
if they secured the order for the pipe
for Blackfoot. The council already
has two carloads of pipe in sizes,
IL inch, inch, 6 inch, and 4 inch
on the ground and they are not in
any hurry for pipes for laying where
the paving Is to be put down in the
spring.
City Clerk ]. J. Quillan has a new
office desk, high stool and new
swivel chair. The whole office has
been cleaned up and the wood work
polished and cleaned and all the fur
niture made to look as neat as a pin.

FORMER BLACKFOOT
MAN IS INVENTER
LATAH FARMERS
HOLDING WHEAT

MOSCOW. W.-Seventy-five per cent
of the wheat crop of Latah county
is still held by the farmers, who re-
fuse to sell on a declining market.
Much of this could have been sold
for from $2.00 to 1925 bushel, but
farmers thought it would go higher.
While no definite figures are OBJ
tainable on the amount of wheat to
be handled in Moscow, it is known
the total will be far in excess of any
season for the last four years. The
Whitley-Dulaney company has it's big
warehouses here and at Joel filled to
the roof, but have been unable to buy
more than avery small portion.
Much wheat is still on the farms
an d is being hauled to the elevators
and warehouses at times when the
farmers are not too busy with other
work. 1t is estimated that 20 to 80
per cent of the crop is still on the
farms.
