All Kinds of Managers

gl
Raising money for an institute is
a new thought to a good many OF the
business people, and some of them
reasoned that since they had nothing
t0 sell that teachers, would wish to
buy, they were not concerned In hav-
ing the teachers come to town. But
when it is remembered that these
500 teachers spend something like
$4,000 while out at the institute,
and that money spent in a. ANAL
town circulates and gets into the
hands OF all its business people,
either in direct or indirect purchases
or in the payment of debts owed by
the people who sell goods or service
to the teachers, it becomes plain that
it is likely to. benefit all branches OF
the business fraternity. c<'~ sss&f
One man who sells gunny sacks,
twine, stock salt and seeds, was as
sessed IS and paid it cheerfully as
II it were pleasure, and q woman
selling a line of goods that appeal
strictly to women, and most Of the
teachers are women, not only re-
fused to subscribe anything, but re-
preached the finance committeeman
for assessing her at all. She said she
did not care whether any teachers
ever came to town or not; that she
did not want their trade and then
added the almost unbelievable
statement that she would kick them
out If they came into her store. .
The committeeman thought she
must be beside herself and merely
expressed his surprise and went out.
After she had had plenty Of time to
relent and repent Of her hard words
he went back and told her that he
regretted her hard words and that
perhaps she too had reconsidered
and wished to express apology OF
regrets or to modify her statements
and he had come for her sake to hear
anything she might wish to say, but
she showed no repentance nor any
desire to recall her former express
sions.

Cost Of Teachers
Meeting a
TOWN CANVASSED
Citizens Will Aid Hotels
in Furnishing Rooms
For Visitors !

The committee that went forth to
collect the money to finance the COM
ing teachers institute met with a big
welcome with most of the people, as
did the residents who were asked to
rent rooms and serve meals to make
it possible to house all of them. Most
Of the people who were assessed for
cash paid it promptly and did not de-
lay the committeeman at all. There
were some who had not given the
matter much thought or had not
been informed as to the reasons why
Blackfoot asked for the institute and
assumed the financial burden that
goes with it, and there were some
who hesitated about or declined to
pay.
A brief statement of the merits of
the case is that Blackfot is an unusu-
ally good town set in an unusually
good country, and it wants to adver-
tise itself and attract more settlers.
It was thought that it would be ex-
ceedingly good advertising to have
500 teachers, mostly young people
with long lives before them, to come
and stay q week and go away boost
ing for Blackfoot as long as they had
pleasant impressions of it. 1t has
been decided to give them every pos
sible opportunity to see the town and
its institutions and the surrounding
country, and to so combine their
work and study and recreation that
these trips of observation would be
a pleasure to them. The committees
plan to show them thru the sugar
factory, the best potato warehouse
in the state If they, are interested,
the warehouse where the worlds
greatest supply Of pure Grimm
alfalfa seed is stored and cleaned,
graded and sealed In packages for
sale at the best prices received for
any alfalfa seed in thezworld; = the
finest fair grounds in the state, give
them a short drive over the forbid
ding lava beds lying adjacent to fine
farms, turn them loose in fine
orchard among apples and fresh
cider and in various ways feast them
with food, fun and information.
While the teachers are here they
will pay for everything they get
meals, rooms, merchandise If they
buy any and they do, and will only
receive free those matters of enter
tainment rendered them. The money
raised by the committee will be used
to pay about 40 per \cent of the ex-
pense of the weeks program, includ-
ing the cost Of bringing lecturers
from distant states, teachers and
leaders of institute work whose ex-
penses and salaries are paid like
lyceum and chautauqua talent. 1t Is
a move to bring some business to the
town and to do some generous things
for the visitors who haveit In their
power to advertise the town and the
country and our resources.

that from the very first of her climb
from a small-town school teacher to
her present position, she has given
due value to ordinary experiences.
Perhaps it was just the lacking of
bunting over a platform frame for
school entertainment-but she liked
it and found pleasure in it because
it served well the purpose of the mo-

stead of wishing for that just out of
her reach.
