From the Literary Digest.
 A young lady in search of hu;- band. particularly if she lived in Massachusetts, where there are only 96 and fraction men to every 100 women, would do well to consult the census bureau. There she would learn that in Nevada men outnumber the women by nearly half; that is, she would have a better chance by one and half times Theoretically of getting a life partner in the Sage. brush state.

Jan Christian Shuts, you know, the Boer, the conquered enemy, now the great reconciler of Britannia's far flung realm and one Of the livest and most important citizens of our planet.
 Behold him weaving back and forth across the Irish channel between the Sim Fein and Lloyd George, trusted by the government. trusted by the Irish, admired by all, an incompar able advertisement for an empirt gifted with the moral force to trans mute beaten foe into a patriotic son.
 "The destiny of Shuts is inter- woven with the destiny of the whole British empire" man in English public life who quoted as saying not long ago. The great war bound the colonies together with bonds of blood.
 'Out of this common peril and sac- rifce has been knit closer imperial klnship, from which will doubtless grow United British empire, feder- ated in policy but not in adminis- tration. Shuts will be the prime minister of these united states of Great Britain"
 The subject of that bold prophecy is blond, blue-eyed, bearded man of 50, a reporter turned lawyer, a lawyer turned soldier, soldier turned statesman, with the burly physique of his Boer race toughened by intensive campaigning and the powers of his mind enlarged by world embracing vision. He has lofty. sloping brow, tending to badness. and a powerful jaw His eyes have a Viking luster in Battle and debate. He is an orator of power, disdaining ornaments of rhetoric and empha- sizing the magic of proved fact and obvious reason.

WASTING PRESIDENTS TIME


 President Harding recently was obliged to give a whole hour of the nations valuable time to confer ence with two Ohio congressmen on a question of patronage involving a revenue collectorship
 We spend millions to elect Pres ident. we pledge him to do his best to put into effect important policies. we pay him s75,000 a year and then we expect him to act as referee in scrambles for the crumbs of political office.
 One way in which congressmen can serve this nation is to not waste the Presidents time with piffling prob lems of party patronage

American Legion Starts
 Drive for New Members


 ID BIRMINGHAM POST NO. 1, of ID the American Legion begins campaign this morning. Every ex-service man and woman who is not at present member of the organization should take this oppor- tunity to join. The drive" will continue two weeks and during that time the annual dues will be re- duced from $4 to $2.50.
 Membership in the American Legion is not only an honor to the man who holds it, but offers a means of promoting hit own inter ests as well as those of his com rades in the late war. On broader scale, it enables him to serve his city, his state and his nation to bet ter purpose. The former soldier who is not a member of the Ameri- can Legion is losing a splendid op- portunity to play the role to which he is entitled in public affairs.
 The Birmingham post has been active and public spirited in the past, but it has mapped out more ambitious programme under it's new administration which began June 15, with the election and installation of officers who are to serve for one year. The first objective of the post is to have every eligible ex- service man and woman in Birming- ham member. It also proposes club house which will be a gather ing place and social center for its members. The organization of drum corps, fight to restore the ballot to ex-service men aad women who were disfranchised by the re- cent ruling of the supreme court and to carry out the legion's leg islative programme, including the bonus bill, will also engage the at tention of the Birmingham post.
 As time goes on membership in the American Legion will have in creased value and distinction. It is already a powerful factor in na- tional life and has been vigilant in safeguarding the interests of former soldiers. It is the patriotic duty of every eligible man and woman to join and keep alive the spirit that helped to win the World war.

Chickasaw Plant Turns
 Out Its First Car

MN July lS' one month to the NJ day after the pressed steel car plant of the Chickasaw Ship building and Car company at Fair field had received its finishing touch and began regular operations, the first standard steel car of 1OO,- 900 pounds capacity, rolled out of the shops on its own wheels for the use of the Louisville and Nashville railroad.
 The new industry is now part of the districts activity. It is an- other achievement based on the ore and coal in our hills and the lime stone in our valley between. These cars have been dug out of the bosom of Jefferson county the same as the ships three-fourths manufactured in sister shops.
 Work on this plant began July 10, 1920, and 1t was completed 10 months later. The major portion of the structural work was done by the employees of the company and the steel entering into the construc- tion of the immense buildings was fabricated in the shops adjacent. It is a home enterprise from the raw materials in the hills to the blast furnaces, the steel ingot, the plate mills, the bar and angle mills and the bolt, nut and rivet depart mepta of the Ensley- Fairfield works

HUMAN SIDE OF WILSON

Tardy Recognition
 Paid to War Hero

M RIVATE JOHN J. MONSON, lI hero of the "Lost Battalion" who died in a New York hospital, was not buried in a paupcr's grave. Only an elevcnth-hour discovery of his identity saved him from this pitiful fate. Apparently without friends or relatives, no one seemed to know or care who Monson was and it was three days before his body was identified.
 As soon as it became known that he was the man who carried a mes sage through the German lines that established liasen with the "Lost Battalion in the Argonne, arrange ments were speedily made to give him military funeral benefiting his record as a soldier. The caisson bearing his body was followed by column five blocks long and movement has been started to erect monument in his honor. A New New York artist has also offered to paint portrait of Monson, free of charge, to be placed in Washing ton.
 Such posthumus honors are all well enough, as far as they go, but it should not be forgotten that Mon- son died neglected, save for the perfunctory services of hospital at tendants. The thoughts of Monson in his last hours must have been exceedingly bitter, as he reflected on his services to his country which brought so scant a reward. It is strange that SOldler Wno nau re- ceived the highest military decora- tions for his bravery should have died unknown and forgotten, without the facts in his history being known to tbe hospital authorities or any body else until it was too late to show him in life some of the appre- citation of his valor which was be- slowed upon him after his death. * * <

CAMP GROUND MUST
BE GIVEN ATTENTION

1t has come to our attention that
the auto camp ground l. badly in
need of attention. Complaint has
been made by some of the campers
regarding the toilets ana garbage
cans which are said 70 be in q de-
plorable condition. The stencil and
flies are said to be almost unbaar-
able.
The Enterprise is not informed as
TO who is in charge of the camp
ground. but if the committee ap-
pointed by the Chamber of Com
merce can not, or will not, attend to
it, the matter should be turned over
to the City, and the ground be
placed in the hands of the City
Marshal, whom we know will see
that the garbage cans and toilets are
properly cared for by some one
With the use of Stacked lime, and the
cans hauled away and emptied once
or twice a week, it would eliminate
the filthy condition.
The campers highly appreciate the
beautiful camp ground and the many
accommodations and will give this
community more free publicity than
can be had in any other way. Let's
not give them any opportunity to-
knock.

GARAGE AND CAR BURNED.

Mr.. R. f. Boyles. living on the old
Courtner ranch about four miles
north of Payette met with a loss
Wednesday evening when fire des-
troyed his garage and bort car.
The origin of the fire which broke
out about seven O'Clock in the even
ing is not known, the car belonging
to l. A. Whitley who lives on the
island near the Boyle's place was
also in the garage but was rescued
with but little damage.
The IA year-old son of Mr. Boyle's
was quite badly burned in an en-
deavor to remove the car from the
burning building and was brought
to town for medical aid. A son of
Mr.. Whitley was also burned about
the face. The Boyle's car was in
sured but few days ago. The Pay
cite Fire Department went to the
rescue with the chemical engine, but
arrived too late to be of any assist
ance.

CONCRETE POSTS.

The Valley Concrete Co. began
this week on the manufacturing of
cement posts in different sizes to
suit the general requirement of the
farm and home, both in square and
round patterns, they are reinforced
with steel and when properly cured
will be practically white and with
sufficient strength to stand all kinds
of abuse. The common fence post
are five and half inches at the bot
tom and three and half at the top.
Corner and gate posts are made
larger ccording to the require
ments. The durability of the con-
crete post will be fully on a par with
paving of streets and highways and
will add much to the appearance of
the community.

FRUIT BUYERS COMING.

The fruit buyers from various
sections of the country are dropping
in as welcome guests to the people OF
this community. Most of them are
making their annual trip to the Val
ley and have become so well ac-
quainted that we enjoy the social
part of their visit as we'll from a
business standpoint AS we get bet
ter acquainted each year we look
forward to their cOmming with con-
siderable pleasure.
Among the latest to arrive, are G.
w. Branch, of Lockport, n. Y,
Louis Rosasco, representing Rosasco
& Co., of Indianapolis, and c. S.
Ttggert of the American Fruit Grow
ers of Chicago, Mr.. Taggert just
dropped in Saturday from Nampa.
where he is handling several cars OF
potatoes, to arrange to do his bank
ing here.
These buyers are offering fair
prices and perhaps 25 pc cent of the
fruit crop has been sold, some of the
growers are holding back expecting
higher prices later. We believe the
grower should get all the market
and the general conditions will
stand, but it is unwise to hold at a
higher figure than will net the buyer
a fair margin. The buyers must live
and receive a profit for his labor as
well as the grower or he will be un-
able to continue his visits to this
section. Competition among the
buyers will set the price at all the
market will stand. ITO live and let
live" and give the purchaser a good
square deal is the only policy for the
grower to follow.
