A THIEF THERE WAS

Wednesday evening some one de-
liberately and with generalization
dug up and completely carried away
the large white geranium bush grow
ing in Mrs. Boyd's front yard; also
picked all of the snowballs that
We're blooming, which Sc was care
fully saving for Decoration day. The
white geranium was greatly priced,
as it was a gift from a friend. So ii
the person who SO malicously took
it away will take good care of it and
give Mrs. Boyd slip from it this
fall no questions will be asked.
We have heard Of persons remov-
ing from the original owners all
sorts of things from bottle of
hootch to a setting hen, and all the
appurtenances thereto belonging, but
to dig up and bodily carry away a
flower is beyond expression. Mrs.
Boyd prizes her flowers, and her
yard in the summer time is a
flower garden in itself. She tends
her flowers with loving care, carry
ing them to her friends who are i'll,
and loaning them for all sorts OF al
fairs.

ond oldest city in America, and
whose history has been intimately
associated with that of the nation

Fredericksburg was the home of
George Washington from the time
he was about seven years of age un-

on that occasion being still in pos
session OF the local lodge Of Masons.
His mother died here, and is buried
here under granite shaft that long
bore the distinction of being the
only monument in the world erected
in memory of woman entirely by
women.

Rules for Saluting Flag

The two colored men in Boise
who recently engaged in physical
combat because one neglected to re-
move his hat while the flag was
passing by in a parade has caused
considerable comment.
1t is ignorance of the custom,
rather than disrespect to the ma
tion's flag, that causes persons to
fail to remove their hats when the
flag goes by. According to military
instructions when the flag is the reg
ulation size, four feet four by five
feet six inches, or larger, and is
paraded unfurled by an organization
it should be given the customary
salute. chats off" by "paraded" is
meant carried" unfurled means
"uncased"
Each male citizen should remove
his hat, hold the same opposite the
left shoulder with the rl8nt mana
while the flag is being carried by or
while he is passing it. This should
be done each time regulation flag
passes, even though there be dozen
flags in the parade.
The Star Spangled banner is the
national anthem of the United States
and not America. Persons are to
RISE if seated face the music, male
citizens removing their hats, and re-
main standing until the anthem is
finished The song America" is
not given the tribute accorded the
"Star Spangled Banner" )"

the Community farm east of town
from the Brady estate, trading in
his ranch north TO town in part
payment. The Community farm was
improved by the late Senator Brady
for dairy ranch, and is fitted out
with the most commodieus and con-
venient equipment Of buildings in
this part of Idaho. There are IS
acres in the place, and Mr.. Love
will take possession in November,
where he will continue in the live

If one wants to get lot of press
stuff, he should send every news
paper three or four eolums day.
That way he will at least get it
printed on the typewriter, if not in
the paper. Do not, by any means
send any newspaper an original
story, for If you do the dramatic
editor will die of shock, and you
may not know the man who takes
his place.

BOISE end OF
HIGHWAY Will
BE GRAVELED
State Highway Department
Will Appropriate Money
From Bond Issue to I'm
prove Important Road

The first act of the state highway
department. after the selling oh the
Two million dollars worth OF high
way bonds will be to gravel to q
lepth of five or six inches the road
TO Mountain Home between the city
limits of Boise and the Elmore conn-
ty line, according to announcement
made recently by p. r. Olson, direct
or Of highways, as given in the
Statesman.
Work will probably be started on
the road In the fall, as officials
think the summer traffic would cut
the gravel out before ii had chance
to settle into place.
The announcement Is the result OF
deal between the county commits
sioners Of Ada county and the bureau
of highways, whereby the county re-
linquishes all right to claim OF
$47S33.33 against the state. The
legislature recognized this claim
against the state in bin passed at
the 1921 session.
The proposed deal Is contained in
resolution passed recently by the
commissioners. In this resolution the
county not only relinanished the re-
endorsement of $47,33.33, but also
all rights in the $11S,798.50 allotted
to the county in the distribution OF
the two million dollars worth OF
bonds All this Is agreed to by the
county provided the state will as
sumo the responsibility OF grayeling
the Mountain Home road from Boise
to the Gilmore county line.
The proposition Is set forth In the
following excerpt from the resolu-
tion.
Nov, therefore. be 1t resolved.
that the commissioners OF Ada
county hereby relinquish the reim-
bursement of $47333.33 due Ada
county from the state OF Idaho, and
all rights in the appropriation OF
$11S,79S.50, providing the commis-
sioner Of public works will take over
the construction OF the gravel sur-
facing of that portion OF the Idaho
Pacific highway which lies between
the Boise city limits and the FL
more county line, without forther
cost to Ada county on this proposed
construction; provided, further, that
any remainder In this allotment at
ter the construction OF the section
noted above will be expended on the
gravel surfacing from the end of the
pavement at the Cole school toward
the Canyon county line"
with the completion of the road
from Boise to Elmore county line,"
said Mr.. Olson, there will be gray-
el or paved highway from the capi-
tai city to the Utah line, with the
exception of two or three small
stretches. From the Elmore county
line to the Mountain Home highway
district, distance about II miles, the
road passes through what Is known
as the Yates Center highway dis
trict. This district has some money,
and with what money 1t gets out of
the bond issue, the district proposes
to cooperate with the state and
gravel this piece of road.
East Of Twin Falls there is a
stretch of about IL miles of dirt
road, and Just east OF American Falls
s four-mile stretch which will re-
main dirt road until the reservoir
s. built. With these exceptions, the
'oad is paved or graveIed to the Utah
ine," Mr.. Olson said.

UNUSUAL HONOR
FOR Joe BOGART
West Phila. n. S. Baseball
Player Elected Captain After
One Year on Nine
IS A CLASSY BACKST0P

Joe Bosart has set mark for other
athletes at the West Philadelphia High
School to shoot at. After one year Of
varsity baseball, "fosie'' has been
elected captain Of the nine.
Bogart reported to Coach Lucas last
year and told the tutor that he had
aspirations for the Job Of backstop.
After giving Joe the "once over" Lucas
said: II may be able to use you
somewhere in the infield. but ]
don't don't thin think you have quite the
you look to be too small; still, if you
insist, I'll try you out behind the bat. y.
The bundle OF pep that Lucas saw
working Tarr, the speediest pitcher In
the league. surprised him.
Say, who Is that little fellow in
there handling Tarr In such easy fash j.
ion," queried the coach Of nearby
candidate.
"Why. that's Joe Fogart, the kid
that asked you for q tryout behind the
bat the other day." was the reply Of
the rookie. ...
Bogart made such favorable i'm
preston on the critics that they were
unanimous In proclaiming him one Of
the greatest little catchers that has been
seen on n scholastic diamond for some
years.
"Bosie' entered West Philly from
the Mitchell Grammar School. While
attending this institution, Joe captained
two championship teams, namely, the
baseball and track aggregations. He
led these two teams through the season
without a defeat, and was one Of the
heat all. around men ever turned out
from this noted school.
The naming Of Bogart as captain
came as a real surprise to the followers
Of the Western nine. It IL unusual to
select a leader for any team who has
only played Cor one season. Nothing
like this ever happened at the Speed
Boy institution before.
