Civil engineering requires nua!ifica- tions similar to other occ ] pations. Character is one of the greatest assets.

A report from the engineers in
charge of the survey OF the canal
from American Falls to Mountain

canyon without an insurmountable
expense. 1t is their present plan to
make two large diameter syphons
and handle the water through them
at greater velocity than has here
tofore been used In government con
struction. This plan will be sub

late Il jor Fred r. Reed, of whom II
has been written; "EIe give his

cidei to make their donation, of
$500, as a part Of a public contri-

Junior M. E. Clubs Stage Snappy
Party.

Tuesday night St. Valentine was
uproarously remembered by the
Junior Worth While Girls club and
the Junior Booster Boys clubs in
the church gymnasium of the Metho-
dist church from seven until nine
thirty.
There was a general uncorking of
young Americas enthusiasm and
fortunately no damage was done to
the concrete floors or iron pillars in
the gymnasium.
There was not a dull minute dur
ing the entire program and the fa-
vored few grown folks who were
present felt ten years younger after
witnessing the bubbling spirit of
pure minded youth in action.
The games were lively and full of
pep but there was no signs of rough
ness of any kind and the Junior
Boosters were as gallant as young
Chesterfelds.
According to previous arrange
ments the boys furnished the eats
and the girls furnished the games
and program, and both sides out
did themselves. Each boy drew a
heart which had missing piece and
in turn each girl had a piece OF
heart that belonged to some boy,
chow true to nature and when the
girl was found with the missing
part of the heart she had the honor
to be eating-partner with the for
tunate young man.
One boy is still running accord
ing to the latest reports; when he
found the girl with the missing part
of his heart, his own heart began
futtering and he left his lunch for
the girl and beat it toward home.
He was by no means the youngest
boy present either, but it was his
first attenmpt at entertaining one
of the fair sex and he could not
stand hitched.
The girls provided a post-office
with competent post-mistress and
everybody received several valen-
tines through the mails.
The girls were bit dubious about
the kind of eats the boys would
bring and served notice that IL they
were not 0. X. they would retaliate
next time with raw onion sand
wiches, but they vote the eats ex-
ira good and will return the com
pliment at the next party. Mrs.
Rich Thompson and Rev. Tom Blod-
gett were official chaperons.
