Thriller.

The largest crowd that ever at
tended the Power County Roundup
paid its way into the gates yesterday
and was more than rewarded by per-
haps the best program of racing and
field events ever presented here. Peo-
pie from every section of the county
and valley jammed their way through
the main entrance in a continuous line
that lasted from 1890 to $500 p. m.
Receipts from the gates have not been
announced but are believed to have ex-
ceeded any previous days amount in
the history of the organization.
Fifty six race horses and half hun
dred buckers comprised the material
that is making the Fourteenth annual
Roundup an unparalleled success.
There rae between four and twelve
horses entered for practically every
race excepting the relay and Rn-1Ian
races where the entries are cut to
three. In addition to the usual list OF
events are the bulldogging and cali
foping contests. The buldogging yes
terday was the best ever seen at Amer
ican Falls, the two entries Jack Coates
and Martin tying for time in 25 81
seconds. Martin narrowly escaped in
jury when his steer fell on him badly
bruising his body and ripping hi
clothes.
Some of the horses ne VITO the Amer
ican Falls track are the strings be
longing to Flowdew of Twin Falls AM
Mordell of Mackay. These horses ar
making the competition mighty keei
and add materially to the interest o
the spectators. The Jack Hit string

in the races. Hit, himself is perhap

He acted as pickup man the first tw

OLD HOME TOWN
"Home Town Paper Week" WIN BE
Nationally 0bserved-The Press Is
C0Operating-Subs for Your
Home Town Paper.

IL everyone born and reared in this
town had remained here to make his
permanent home, we should be a city
of many hundreds more population
than we now number.
On the other hand, cities and towns
elsewhere that have attracted our
youth would never have been founded,
perhaps, and America would remain
as it was in pioneer days-a great
continent with few scattered cities
all too large, all oVer-congested.
But the opportunity that calls men
away from their native homes keeps
the great movement alive, with the re-
suit that practically every corner of
America has in it a representative OF
American Falls.
However, the home town always has
its interest for the people who needed
the call to go elsewhere, and news OF
its progress and the doings Of its peo.
pie is welcome news to the native and
former resident, wherever he may now
be located.
The Perfect Medium.
Correspondence. however faithful
cannot cover all the news and gossip
and seldom deals with more than fam
lily affairs. The perfect medium, o
course, is the home town newspaper
