FAUST" PLEASES
OPERA AUDIENCE

The Washington Opera Company
gave q production OF Gounod's
Faust" last night at the ,Shubert-
Garrick Theater that was greeted
BY the audience with an enthusiasm
which 1t times almost amounted to
an ovation. Principals. chorus and
orchestra. Individually and collect
ively, gave a performance that was
from every standpoint of the high
est order. There was a snap and
assurance that gave a feeling that
all were living the parts allotted
to them. Particularly noticeable
was the work Of the chorus ami
orchestra, and for this credit Is
due< to Arnold yolpe. whose con-
Quoting was strong and sure.
The surprise OF the evening was
the Introduction of Leon Zario, a
young tenor. from New York. who
as guest artist took the title role
in place Of. Cesar Nesi. Mr..
Zario's voice is lyric tenor of rich
sweetness. His reading OF the part
throughout was true to the spirit
OF the role. .

This Is what Director Lewis told

that In attacking high living costs
I'VE are squirting water into the

IT Is a question of supply and

US to do is to pitch in and in

sumption.
THE only way to do that is to
work and save. So long as the
public Is willing to pay $50 for a

shoes will be $40 a pair. But II
the public restricts its buying to Sc

FIRE DESTROYS
JOHNSON HOME;
Dwelling Six Miles East
Of Town is Burned
to Ground

The dwelling of l.. w. Johnson,
six miles east of Blackfoot, was
burned to the ground Sunday after
noon, the fire having started in the
roof when he was away. Mr.. Span
bauer, who lives a short distance
away, was the first to arrive, and
T.. Short, who was at neighbors,
used the telephone to summon help.
Everything was carried out, but the
house was complete loss. Mr..
Johnson had it insured.
Mrs. Short put in call for the
Blackfoot fire company. but owing
to the fact that the arrangements
for the rural service have not yet
been completed, they could not re-
spond. All the insurance of the
town is written on the rate based
upon certain fire protection afford
ed by the fire company being always
ready to give service, and should a
fire start intown while the fire COM
pany was in the country working,
that might be the basis of litigation
over the losses, and cancellation of
insurance for the others until ass
surance was furnished that it would
not happen again.

Idaho Senator Arrives in
Chicago Ready With
Anti-League
Plank
ANNOUNCES PLANS
Concerned Only With
Platform and
Candidate
(By Universal Service)


CHICAGO.-Fully prepared to
take the place of captain general of
all the league of nations opponents
for the Republican convention, Sena :,
tor William E. Borah of Idaho ar
rived here Sunday afternoon. He
brought with him the anti-league
plank which he and Hiram Johnson
and others who oppose the league
will support in the convention.
Borah's first conference was with
Johnson who stood with him in the
treaty fight and who is now Borah's
candidate for the presidency. They
discussed the convention situation
for some time.
In announcing his plans with re-
spect to the fight on the league in
the convention, Senator Borah said
he and others in his group were con-
cerned with only two things. These
are to get the right kind of platform
and the right kind of candidate. The
right kind of platform in their opin-
ion, is straight out denunciation Of
the league plan, and their idea Of
the right kind of a candidate is
Hiram Johnson.
Senator Borah declined to make
public the draft of the anti-league
plank which he brought with him.

Campaign Notes
With but five or six more days left
of the present big vote schedule,
contestants in the big $4,000 Auto
mobile and Gold Distribution are
working with might and main to pile
up enough votes to land the prize of
their choice.
Someone whose name appears in
the list is making 1895 for their
efforts these days; another is max
ing $1S40 and still another is maxi
ing $500 in gold-quite a nice addi-
tion to bank account. Indeed, it
may mean new start in life to the
victors.
The race is neck and neck as the
finish of the first period approaches
"a long-term subscription or two
would change the entire lineup.
It's all up to the candidates them
selves, as to whether they will be
among the biggest winners or the
lowest. The next few days will tell.

They do not travel that road and
they go to Pocatello by the other
