Full Rights To Women

Madison, Wisconsin women
gained every right possessed by male
citizens under civil law when Governor
Blaine on Monday signed the bill plac-
Ing this state as the first in the Union
to extend full equality to its new vo-
tiers. The measure removes every res
friction even giving women the right
to swear trousers and stand on the
street corners chewing tobacco" as
senator's said when they discussed the
bill in the legislature.

merely getting something for quick
growth and shade as has generally
been done in this valley.
People who have not given much
study to the difference in value and
beauty of trees should observe the
beautiful weeping birch tree in Mrs.
Grace Stevens yard, planted in the
long ago by H. w. Curtis, and getting
TO be more attractive each year.
There is the pretty pine tree in front
of the Eldredge home planted long
ago by Senator L. r. Thomas and
the admiration Of all who see it.
There Is an old box elder tree at the
eastern corner of the Central school
that was planted about thirty or
thirty-five years ago by Mr.. Burley.

think nothing Of it. "Old man Bur

The Arrowhead Beauties
The family of o. F. Smith are
bordering over plans for making the
most beautiful thing they can of the
arrow head we told you about last
week which lies west of the race
track. Peonies are to form the basis,
| but peonies last only a short time,
and they want to have roses and per-
haps other plants interviewer that
will keep up a continuous bloom thru
the summer. That makes it more
difficult to design and more expen-
sive to furnish and the Smiths are
not wealthy these days. If some good
fellow had little block of stock that
he was willing to turn over to the as
ISOLATION to pay for rose bushes,
Smiths could buy them at wholesale
because of their nursery connections
and they, being accustomed to handl-
ing nursery goods could see that they
were handled and planted right so
they would grow and flourish instead
of dying as most roses do in this
country It is chiefly a matter of
knowing when and how, and we wish
somebody would take advantage of
the opportunity and ring Smiths that
he will finance the rose bush pur-
chase. 1t is not often that we can
get the enthusiastic aid of a bunch of
experts to plant flowers for public
good. Their phone number is
423R11.
Bankers and Lumbermen
w. F. Bergman has decided to
turn over the stock of the Standrod
Bank to help on the biggest financial
burden, paying for the new steel
fencing that is being put in.
General Manager Barton of the
Boise Payette Lumber company and
his assistant B. w. Gambol were here
from Boise recently and their local
manager Rex Dunlap told them
about the improvements at the fair
grounds, and they told him to turn
over their stock and to make selec-
ton of the project on which it should
be spent. Mr.. Dunlap went out and
looked things over with Mr. Seeger
and saw so many things he wanted to
help with that he said to use their
stock to fill up the puddle we told
you about two weeks ago, and then
he would see what to do with the
rest.
City Park to be Fixed up

Immediately after the president had
finished speaking, Chairman Penrosc
of the finance committee moved that
tie Till be recommitted to his commit
tee, but Democratic opposition flared
up and prevented vote Wednesday.
The motion was under unlimited de-
bate, but vote tomorrow was expec-

Immediately upon the presidents de-
parture, Senator Penrose offered the
Republican motion for recommittal Of
the bill, with promise of further
careful consideration" Democrats
rose at once in opposition. Senator
Robinson tDem.), Arkansas, declared
the motion meant "obsequies" for the

other things and now the Riddles and
tired mothers with babes and the
tourists are getting much enjoyment
out of it. People who 60 out in the
evening to- visit with tourists and
listen to their comments say the city
park is worth real money to the town
and the whole country, because OF
the trade it pulls and because of the
good advertising it gives the valley
The north line of the park is not
just where it was supposed to be, and
some Encouragement of crooked
| ditch is needed in connection with
| laying out the new road to the ar
rowhead. There is also a lot of
burnt grass plot that needs grading
and watering to redeem it, and in
various places the sod has nearly
killed out by lack of irrigation. The
city water hydrant that supplies
water for tourists is in bad order and
is not in convenient place for them
and is hard to find and hard to OPP
crate till one learns the peculiar COM
bination. 1t is going to be replaced
by three workable hydrants at con-
venient places.
Three or four years ago when peo-
pie were agitating for roses and flow
ers and shrubs in the park, Mrs.
Trego furnished lot Of them and
some of them were set out promtly
and some were left to dry out and
die before being set. Some of them
were well watered and grew for
year or two and then began to fail
for want Of water and fertilizer and
cultivation. If person goes to the
park now and looks over the
remnant Of them he will see little
sickly looking things with roots rest
ing on hard dry ground and little or
no bloom. The lilac bushes have not
been trimmed and look unshapely
and stunted, the roses that somebody
donated have mostly died and been
forgotten, and it looks like distress.
Mrs. Trego says she could furnish
lot of bulbs, roots and shrubs for it
this fall If there was proper manage
ment to insure successful cultivation.

Will Erect the Archway
People who have examined the
columns made some years ago for
erection at the entrance to the park,
have decided that those columns
have got to be put in position instead !
of being left to advertise the glories
of the past by lying in the weeds.
The park has too much of the ap-
pearance Of the school grounds to
be really pretty place and good
advertisement for the town and the
valley. The park committee of the
city council are talking about going
out to the park and making careful
study of it's needs and possibilities.

Young Doughboy-Gob Explains
He Did 1t All for
Fun
OTHERS ARE SCATTERED

The story Of a two years matri-
nnonial spree, during which Harold
Hammond. twenty-year- old desefter
from the army and the naVyN was
married fourteen times, became known
Yesterday when wife No. ], formerly
Miss Elizabeth Marie Fitznenry or
Rockaway Park. and wife No. IA, Miss
loretta T. Burke of Manhattan, petl-
cfpned Justice Martin ]. Keogh in the
Supreme Court at White Plains. for
divorce and annulment respectively.
The youthful polygamist, who Is
serving eighteen months for desertlon
yn the naval prison at Hampton Roads
is described by his lawyer, Julian "
Carabba, 1l5 Broadway, as tail and
good looking with fair hair, blue eyes
and a 'mama's boy" appearance.
"He told me-" Mr. Carabba said yes
terday that whenever he met girl
to whom he took a fancy ne married
her, because Il was so easy. lie said
he remained with some of them only
a day or two. He could not remember
all OF their names. never thought
any OF tneH WOulu Htl NiSc'
complained after he had been arrested.
I lust married them for fun.
According to the papers filed BY Miss
Fitzhenry through her counsel. James
A. Turley 233 Broadway. Hammond
met her in 1917 when he was calvary
man at Fort Ethan Allen, Burlington,
VT He deserted 10 come to New York
and marry her and they spent their
honeymoon in Greenwich Village, where
Hammonds family then lived.
The following year baby was born
and Hammond sent his wife and little
son Robert to live with his mother.
Then. according to his own confession.
Mr.. Carabba said, he ran away and
enlisted in the navy, using his brother
name lie was stationed first at New
port News, where he married Margaret
O'Brien and two other young women
whose names he does not recolect.
He next was assigned to the naval
barracks in Brooklyn. and in less than
a years time, he states. he persuaded
ten more girls to accompany him TO
the marriage clerks office at City Hall.
Mr.. Carabba said Hammond named
three OF these as Elaine O'Grady OF
South Philadelphia a Miss Bennett OF
Bath Beach and Miss Burke, who was
his final venture.
He and Miss Burke were married in
the clerks office on May 10. 1919. She
left him and went home to dinner after
they had agreed TO meet and go TO the
theatre that evening. AS she was leav-
ing her house she was stopped by
detective who asked her IL she were
not Mrs. Hammond. which she ad-
mitted. The detective was hunting for
Hammond, who had deserted from the
navy, and he arrested him on the cor
ner. where Hammond and his bride
had arranged 70 meet.
Miss Fitzhenry, the first wife. is the
daughter OF Joseph Fitzhenry. head of
large trucking concern and former
president of the Jeffersonian Club. JUS
tice Keogh told her counsel he would
grant the divorce and annulment and
the baby Robert. now two years old,
will be given 10 its mother
