THE MERIDIAN SCHOOLS.
supt. Geo. w. Gould.)

The enrolment to date has been
very good. 1t is larger in both build
ings than it was at the corresponding
time last year. In the grade building
the numbers are more evenly distrib-
uted throughout the grades than last
year. In the Junior High School the
seventh is somewhat smaller than
last year but the eighth and Linth are
both larger.
The Junior study hall is not large
enough to seat all of them and ar
rangements had to be made to care
for the seventh grade in another
room. The Senior High school is
now above the 100-mark, a number
considerably above any former mark.
1t is very difficult to find seating
space for all who have already enter
ed. Several more pupils are expected
in this department in the near future.
Parents who have not yet started
the very beginners in the first grade
should do so not later than next
Monday. Every year few parents
seem to overlook this rule of the
board They fail to understand that
| it is not practicable to care for be-
ginners individually. They must be
instructed in classes. The work is
carefully graded and progressive.
Children entering month late with
out former training would be wholly
unable to take up the work with the
class.
A number of children under eight
cen have not yet enterd school, Ac-
leording to the law every child under
that age is required to attend school
1.-the full nine months unless a per-
nit has been granted allowing him
to remain elt of school for time
Whether for sickness or for work
these permits must be granted by the
superintendent il at all. A checking
up of these absentees will begin nex'
week.

DO NOT APPROVE OF
SPEAKERS REMARK

A citizen of Boise has started
something" by the remark that Vir-
ginia Rappe got what she deserved. "
While some may not censure this
remark, we think ii had better been
left nnsaid. Virginia Rape is not on
trial and the court at San Francisco
has to deal with the individual and
not the system. She may have re-
ceived her just deserts but the Dues
tion now is whether Fatty Arbuckle
will get his, or get off with light
sentence Justice is not meted out
If this man with his money can be al
lowed to buy off witnesses that are
valuable to the prosecution. The
woman in such case should be pro-
tected and not condemned, for the
reason that she is the victim, and not
the aggressor,
And the philosophy that Arbuckls
was the goat would let every man
out of the nenitentiary, as every
criminal says he is the victim OF eir-
cumstances, and is no worse than
others.

SOME EXPERT PACKING
AT THE PRUNE PLANTS

While the suit case pack is gener-
ally used this year, dealers say that
the basket or crate pack brought
enough more on the market this year
to pay for the extra expense. One car
shipped 70 Chicago brought $3.50 a
crate while the suit case pack We're
selling from soc to S125 crate.
1t is for this reason that the suit
case will probably never entirely sup
plant the other pack. At the McBir-
.ney packing house in Meridian not
less than 80 women are employed In
packing the fresh prunes in baskets,
and some good records have been
made. Alfred Matcham, the compe-
tent foreman in charge of the plant,
SAYS there are two, Miss Jennie
Rambo and Mrs. John Krulish, who
are expert packers and get through
with 80 crates each per day. The
crates contain four baskets each, and
the packer is paid 7c per crate for
the fancy pack and &C for the ordi-
nary pack, and these ladies average
around $3.50 day each. Most OF
the workers, however, pack 40 or SO
boxes, and receive $S to $3.50 per
cay.

MACHINERY HELPS
RAPID FRUIT HANDLING

At the McBirney plant and at other
packing houses in Meridian the
crates after coming from the pack
ers are carried by truck into the cars
on the side track. The Southern Id
aho company, which are packing the
Earl Fruit company prunes. however,
have steel eonveyor, consisting of
small gas pipe, the crates running
along this track by gravity While
the Denney company have small
conveyor, the one at the Southern
Idaho plant carries the crates down
to the next story below, and out onto
theSplatform and into the car. This
saves much trucking! The rollers are
balEbearing and carry the box even
aroMnd curve without trouble.
The Earl company are handling the
erop from the big Brandt orchard at

county, aiid where there are 400 tons
