President Stumps Children
on Bud-Eating-Bid Problem

A bunch of kids. composing the John
Burroughs Club Of the Force school
called on the President yesterday aft
ernoon and came away in a brown
study. With one question the chief
executive stumped the crowd The
club has two weeks to answer, by
letter, and suggest a possible solu-
tion.
The boys and girls presented the
President with book. Birds of
Washington" then told him all about
how they were going to preach forest
protection fifty-two weeks out of the
year. particularly. they said. as re-
garded bird life. for the birds destroy
the insects that ruin the fruit and the
crops.
That was very fine. the President
said. but what are you going to do
with the birds that prey upon other
birds?"
The kids never thought of that.
They looked at each other for an
answer. and couldn't find it. Mother
Nature must have forgotten to pro-
vide for that contingency: anyhow. if

RED CROSS VISITED
BY FIELD WORKER
NORTHWEST dist.

Miss Anna e. Brakel, of Seattle,
Division Field Representative for
Idaho, was in Mountain Home from
Sunday to Wednesday of this week,
meeting the Executive Board on
Monday evening in Mr. Watts Of
flee. The Executive Committee
consists of Mrs. Ella Caldwell,
chairman; A. +. Anderson, Treas
urer; Mrs. Anna Vandegrift, Sec
retary; Mrs. Will H. Gibson, Home
Service and Post War Secretary;
and Mrs. Pearl Barber Junior
chairman. Other members of the
board are Mrs. A. f. Anderson, Mrs
J. G. Watts, Mrs. Mary Breigleb, all
of Mountain Home, and Rev A. L..
Woods, Glenns Ferry, Mrs. Minnie
Reynolds, Bruneau, and Mrs. S. A.
Mullenix, Grand View. Mr.. Hugh
I'll, Nixon, superintendent of schools,
and Mr. J. G. Watts. also attended
the especially called meeting. Miss
Brakel explained the work ahead of
the chapter i'm looking out for the
veterans in our county, and the CO.
operation that the chapter should
give to the Clean Up Squad when
they COME. She stated that she
knew she expressed the pleasure of
the division Office in the activity of
the chapter and the good prospects
they had for successful Roll Call.
Miss BraNel explained the pos
sibility elf having Miss Djupe come to
the chapter for a period of four or
five weeks, loaned by the Division
Office to help with the work for ve-
tenans in the district, and to further
the homie service work. Miss Djupes
salary and expenses are all carried
by headquarters, and all that would
be expected of the chapter would
be to see that she has an office to
work in, and office supplies suf-
ficient for her needs. No definite
action was taken regarding Miss
Djupe's coming, but the committee
is considering the matter favorably.
There Is no reason why Elmore
county should not have a chapter
second to none in the state of Ida
ho. We showed what we could do
during the war, with our canteens,
motor corps, and our production
rooms, where literally TONS of sup
plies were turned out by our women.

wheel and make this LIVE Red

Mountain Home. The Congregation
al choir led the music. Sunday
school charts lined the front walls
of the church interior. The Noun
tain Home people received hearty
appreciation for the hospitality in
entertaining the outside guests. AS
the final close and climax of the ex-
cellent program, the evening address
of Rev. e. M. Keller, state superin-
tendent of the int nterdenominationa
S. s. work, is worthy CT special men
tion. 1t was illustrated with chart
under six heads in the development
of the child; Home, School, Church
Community, Society, and Industry.
Officers elected for the ensuing

Unique Church Announcement.

Among the church announcements
in this weeks Republican Is an an
nouneemsnt that two basket ball
games will be played at the high
school gym Wednesday evening. The
prayer meeting, which is a union
service of all the churches, is also
advertised for Tuesday evening in
stead of Wednesday evening, SO that
the active membership Of the church
es may attend the games. In all the
years we have conducted a country
newspaper we are unable to recall
that any church postponed any OF its
services or advanced them to an
earlier date to take part in any
sporting event. The games are be-
tween two high school class teams
and two town teams, the Village
Clerks and the American Legion.
The latter game promises to be a
good one, the players being, Hill
0ttenheimer, Emmett O'Neill, Bill
0'Neill. Volney Hickok and Harold
Whitson, for the clerks, Osborne
Casey, Hill Galloway, Jim Stafford,
Harry Isaacs and Claude Tacha for

GLENNS FERRY
GREEK CHARGED
WITH JAP MURDER

Tom Orito, the Japanese who was
shot by hold-up man in Glenns
Ferry more than a week ago, died
Wednesday and Frank Diano will be
held for his murder. Diano and
Oscar Growilla were placed under ar
rest two days after the shooting fol-
lowing a fine piece of detective work
by Sheriff Stevens. Mr., Stevens in
vestigated which of the foreign rail-
way laborers owned guns similar to
that with which the shooting was
done and found that Glowilli, re-
Gently out from Chicago, had such a
weapon. In looking UP GscwilIi
the sheriff found that he had per-
feet alibi and so accused him of hav-
ing loaned the gun, and after some
grilling Growilli admitted that
Diano had taken the gun the night
of the shooting. Later Growilli
signed a statement In which he ad-
mitted that Diano had told him of
the shooting. This statement says
that Diano shot by accident when
he was startled by having Orito
open the door just as he was going
into the Jap cabin to hold UP crap
game. Both men are now in the
county Jail, Diano as principal and
Growilli as a material witness.
Diano has resided in Clenns Ferry
for several years and was lin the ser
vice during the war, having been
drawn in the Elmore county forces
Growila came to Glenns Ferry
during the past summer from Chi
cago and lived with Diano in a con-
verted car.
