TO ENLARGE M. E.
CHURCH
Funds for Completing Original Plans
in Sight-PastOr Returns.

| The annual conference of the Meth.
odist Episcopal churches of Southern
Idaho and Eastern Oregon, held il
Twin Falls last week, not only re-
turned DR.. Elmer Grant Keith to the
pastorate Of the Emmett church, but
also gave assurance that funds for
carrying out the plans for a larger
church building, thus enabling the So
ciety to broaden its sphere of useful
ness, would be available.
The action of the conference in re-
turning DR.. Keith to Emmett is sure
to meet the enthusiastic approval, not
only of the local church, but. of the
community as we'll
The past year has been very sue
cessful one and the work started then
should assure the making of the COM
ing year even better. The compile
tion of the new gymnasium, rest room,
reading and social rooms is confident
ly expected and the benfit to the
young people of the community will
be incalculable. The church and the
city are to be congratulated on hav-
ing the Keiths with them for another
year. The annual conference honored
Mr.. Keith by choosing him to act as
their secretary for the ensuing year.

N.zarene Church Plans Big Drive

The Church of the Nazarene, which
is valued at $1,000 has remaining
Indebtedness of only about $4,000.
The church has been built 4 little
over two years. The reduction Of the
debt to this amount with very little
outside help shows spirit Of sacri-
fee and loyalty on the part Of this
thriving congregation. Next Sunday
they are going to make a drive to
raise good part Of the remaining in
debteness and the pastor states thev
have fair prospects of accomplishing
this. The Offering at this time is nee
essary because of some old obligations
coming due in the near future. The
public is not being solicited for this
money, but all who would like to help
and are interested in seeing the thing
done will be cordially welcomed to the
services at the church next Sunday
morning and evening. Singing and
speaking will be feature of the SER
vices. Friday was appointed as a
day of fasting and prayer for the
success of the undertaking.

The Ball Game

The opening number on the sports
program was the ball game between
Sweet and Emmett, which was won
by the locals after an exciting game
which was in doubt until the last
inning. The score was to 8.
Emmett scored in the first inning,
again in the fifth, another in the
sixth, four in the eighth and one in
the ninth. Sweet did not score until
the seventh, when they forged ahead
one point by making four scores.
Penson was substituted for Soran in
the eighth, but even his brilliant
pitching did not halt Sweets batting
and three more runs were added in
the ninth, tieing the score. Penson
scored early in the ninth.
A record breaking crowd was pres
ent, being estimated at 1900.

DAM OUTLOOK GROWS
BRIGHTER
Hope Given That Black Canyon
Construction Will Start
Next Spring.

| The visit Of Secretary of the Int
rior Fall and his party of reclama
tion officials to Boise Saturday ane
conference of committee from EN-.
NETT with members of the party has
strengthened the belief that the day
of starting active construction worl
on the Black Canyon dam will not be
later than early next spring.
. The committee, composed Of D. H
Van Deusen, v. T. Craig, E. X. Hayes
and Charles MacLean, spent the entire
day in Boise and had conferences with
members of the reclamation party
They were joined by delegations from
Caldwell, Parma, New Plymouth and
other portions of the Black Canyon
Irrigation District. These delega-
tions were assured that all projects
for whiih funds had been definitely
appropriated by congress would be
built and completed at the earliest pos
sible time The Emmett committee
was given to understand that the dam
is considered as in the emergency
class and would receive the earliest
attention. It was the general belief
that work would start not later than
early next spring and that every eff
fort would be made to complete the
project in 1922.
This point was strongly brought
out and emphasized: That sagebrush
projects are not now being consider
ed, but that projects that already
have been improved would receive
first consideration.
Asked relative to the Hillcrest pro-
ject, comprising some $4,000 acres ly-
ing southeast of Boise, the secretary
turned the newspaper representatives
lover to P. A. Davis, head of the SER
vice, whom he stated, had those af-
fairs in hand. Mr.. Davis replied that
while the Hillcrest project had been
approved, he was unable to say when

Dam Nav Change Climate

One of the plans that may be start.
ling in possibilities is the proposed
building of a gigantic dam 10 miles
long across the strait of Belle Isle
the channel separating the island
Newfoundland from Labrador II
is through this channel that the Lab
rador current sweeps down along the
Canadian coast and into the Gulf of
st. Lawrence and greatly affects the
climate of Eastern Canada. If this
great dam is built it is believed that
it will divert the cold Arctic current
out into the Atlantic ocean and pre-
vent it coming into. the Gulf of st.
Lawrence. In place of it the warm
Gulf Stream will, it is believed, flow
into the Gulf of ST. Lawrence and
change the climate of Eastern Canada
to that Of Virginia and North Carolina.
Of course if this is done it will great
ly change the agricultural products
Of that part of Canada as well as the
climate. Instead Of short summers
and long hxrd winters there will be
ong but delightful summers and mild
winters. Such crops as are now
grown in the mild climate of Virginia,
kentucky and Tennessee will grow in
canada and while that part Of the Do
ninion will not be quite SO popular
IS summer resort it will be vastly |
more productive in an agric.,l lt...ee.ii .. 81 | |
vay. The cost of the dam is estimat-
d at 10 million dollars, trifing sum
onsidering the enormous benefit it
yill be to that part of Canada, if the
heories of the scientists are correct.

Idaho Power Valuation

County officials are puzzled over
the shrinkage in the assessed valua-
ton of the Idaho Power Co. from
the valuation of last year, and have
started an investigation. Harry Car
michael went to Boise Tuesday to con-
suit with state officials in regard to
the discrepancy. Last year the valu-
alton of the transmission lines was
$63,962; this year it is sac, ,293. Last
year the distributing valuation was
$24,440 in the county and $16,653 in
the city. This year the valuation in
the county is $29,076, in the city $5,-
95S, drop Of $4,000. Why the diff
ference?

ICE AND STORAGE
PLANT
Modern Ice House and Equipment to
Cost $4,000.

The Boise Ice and Cold Storage
company, of which Anthony Peterson
is the local manager, will this fall
spend $4,000 in the construction of a
modern ice house and cold storage
plant in this city. The building will
be erected on land recently bought for
that purpose near that company's oil
tanks.
Bids for furnishing the necessary
lumber are in the hands of dealers and
it is expected to commence work some
time next month. The ice house will
have capacity of 5000 tons, and
storage plant will handle eight cars.
The ice house will require no sawdust
in packing the ice.
