ROTAR|ANS MEET
TO WIND Up YEAR
Ladies Night" Brings Out Full At
tendance and They Put On an Al
together Joyful Program,

| Blackfoot Rotarians celebrated the
closing OF another years activities,
at their Ladies' night" tbanquet,
Tuesday night It was perhaps the
biggest meeting of the year-and
fully 100 per cent the best, consi der
ing their guests.
Short addresses were given by
Hon. Peter G, Johnston, on "Ro-
tary,' and by DR.. Gillian on "Our
Far East Problems" After these,
charge, for a program Of unusual ex-
cellence. Some extraordinary mu-
Sicians We're introduced import
ed Senegambian with his banjo a
stately Spanish cavalier straight
from old Madrid, plucking daintily
on the same old guitar that cavaliers
have raved about for 'steen centur-
les, and Ghetto Hebrew vii h
fiddle that couSd speak in seven lam
guages. Someone who helped make
UP the program, and the performers,
said that they were Judge Andersen,
j. II. Early and Doc Hudson, SER
iatim; but hardly anybody who saw
them would believe these gentlemen
could make up so icleverly. If it
wasn't they, the Rotary club missed
three members that night! They put
on some clever ensemble music, and
later led in the singfest. Mrs. Dus-
tin sang several delightful songs,
and f. l.. Anderson and l.. B. Dus
/ tin rendered some topical songs with
local hits that brought the heartiest
| apu'ause. A dance followed The
dinner was an elaborate affair, one
that would persuade the soureSt, sell
| fishest man that he ought to be
Rotarian and rotate wherever such
good times could be had.
! The next meeting will be held
May 1st, when the new officers will
be installed. These are. II. d. Mac
Cosham, president; f. T. Peck, vice
president; Milton Fehnel, ecreary;
and Ernest Pearson, treasurer. These
named gentlemen, with f. w. Berry
man, f. l.. Anderson and Geo. F.
! Gagon, constitute the board of direc-
tors.
The lodge will be represented at
the international convention at Edin-
burgh, Scotland, by Peter G. John
| s. on, who with his wife plans to
visit his native Albin this summer.
7 Every Rotary Cub is entitled to one
delegate. but not every one is able
to afford the $500 luxury, or to
have a member who's making the
trip anyhow and can represent his
/ fellows as delegate. Pocatello will
be represented by William Wallin,
of the Tribune, who is now visi ing
in Europe and will attend the Edin-
burgh meeting.

LITTLE LOSS FOR
STOCK ON RANGE
Snow of Last Week Has Not Brought
Disaster That Was at First Feared
Though Some Stock Has Suffered.

The snow of last week will not be
especially harmful to live stock on
the range, according to Ralph Dixey,
one OF the best known stock men Of
the valley. The cattle had gone to
the Mills rather earlier than usual,
because OF the especially fine graz
ing there. From the Reservation
they had sent $3.50 head, and some
of them had gone pretty we'll up.
With the snow, however, the wise old
COWS didn't need herders to protect
thenl-they headed back down the
slopes to where there was less snow,
and they were able to find feed with
in two or three days at the most, at
the lower levels that still had fine
winter feed. Few calves had come,
so that the loss of young stock is
practically nothing at all.
Mr.. Dixey says that whereas last
year there was great mortality
among the calves, because of short
feed and poor condition of the herds
in general-many of the stOckmen
saving hardly more than 80 or 40
per cent of the normal increase
there is promise this season of a full
calf crop and chance to save it all.
Even though prices should remain
low, with twice as many animals to
sell and so little additional expense,
the cattlemen are bound to prosper.
There will be some loss of lambs,
from the flocks that had been prema-
turely driven away from the winter
feeding grounds. The lambs would
suffer in the snow and the short feed,
and not a few of them are already
kicking up their tiny heels in the
happy hunting grounds of the New
er-Was-the weaker lambs Fhat
hadn't the vitality to fight it out on
the snowdrift line.
Mr.. DiXey hadn't yet calculated
this latest snow, which came Thurs
day after his interview on Wednes-
day. 1t isn't as heavy as the one a
week ago, but it is powerful wet,
and coming on the animals weakened
by even the two or three days depri-
yation of last week, it may be ser
ious especially for the ambs and lhe
rooriy old stock.

BODIES RECOVERED
FROM OPPAU BLAST
Rescue Workers Continue to
Find Victims Buried Be-
meath Ruins of Plant.

MAYENCE, Germany, Sept. %
More than 500 bodies have been re-
covered from the vast ruins of the
Badische plant at Oppau, and It is
considered certain that 800 persons
still are missing. Two thousand
wounded, four hundred of them Sc
riously, are scattered in temporary
hospitals for miles around the scene
of Wednesdays explosion.
There is a military Gordon around
Oppau, keeping out the curious and
restraining relatives from carrying
out their desire to search the am
monia-drcnched wreckage for the
bodies of their missing.
Little Explanation.
The 15O-acre plant site and a vast
area around it present a picture not
unlike that of a shell-torn battlefield.
Earth is mixed with pulverized con-
crete ard bits of metal from hun
dreds of shattered machines. Some
bodies have been recovered at a
depth of 20 feet.
Engineers add little TO the expla-
nations already made Of the disaster.
There is said 70 have been 1000 tons
of salts in two reservoirs, one Of
them causing the other TO explode,
and that six great gas tanks and
other chemicals detonated from the
conclusion. The chief engineer Of
tho Badische company is quoted as
declaring himself mystified, as it was
believed the salts could not explode.
All our efforts to utilize them as
explosives failed" he said.
