New York City
Day BY Day
BY o. o. MeIntyre.


NEW YORK, Sept. 2s.-At noon
we sighted Long Beach and shortly
after passed Ambrose lightship. At
quarantine the Aquitania anchored
to await the health officers who
came out In q tug. They did not
inspect the passengers travelling
first class, but took one man from
the steerage.
The bar closed at the three-mile
limit without any wailing or
sengers accepted the inevitable.
somehow there was little demon
stration at the sight of gallant Miss
Liberty. A few removed their hats
but that was about all.
The ship sailed up the Norts
River with the usual footing of
sirens that welcomes each liner.
Slipping into the pier in New York
requires mastery seamanship.
fiock OF valiant little tugs attached
themselves fore and aft and turned
the huge liner around.
A miscalcuation of hve feet
means heavy damage. The officer
at the bow of the boat relayed the
directions to the captain by mega
phonists. 1t was noticed that the
megaphonist nearest the captain
used the differential sir" In ad-
dressing his superior.
Hundreds of faces were at the
pier rails shouting their welcomes.
I saw my lop-eared dog bowling
like lost soul in the midst of the
confusion. And the little rascal
broke pier regulations by dashing
over the gangplank to the ship.
Passing customs at New York is
a dreary routine. Passengers must
wait until their luggage Is as
sembled In alphabetical order and
then stand In line with their decla-
ration to get the service of an in
spector. The second and third class
passengers must remain aboard all
night.
The customs Officers in New York
leave nothing to the Imagination.
They search each piece OF baggage
with scrupulous care, but are
courteous and obliging. But It does
ruffie ones idea of liberty to have
his luggage so thoroughly ran
sacked. One lady next to me did
not want to open a small bundle.
She was told she must and she had
to reveal a delicately pink and
ribbon laced set OF whstyoumay-
callems, blushing furiously all the
while.

sweet Music to the Ear.

There are several kinds of music.
but there is one kind particularly
pleasing to the ear these snappy
mornings. The thousands who walk
down Sixteenth street, alias Avenue
Of the Presidents (see Mrs. Hender-
son). are the ones who get in on
the sweet music. The music is made
by a choice collection of pneumatic
riveters that sing their song of
working men there at Sixteenth and
NJ streets. Several hundred work
ing men, with the accent on the
working. should listen good to al
most any body in Europe nova
days. Then. too, the man with the
envelopes comes across every Sat-
urday with the good old dollars that
are worth a dollar, which Is another
tune mighty good to hear. Out Con-
necticut avenue you can see an
apartment house spreading itself all
over the side of a hill there at
Cathedral avenue. Another Is down
the street aways in front Of the
pretty little church. Now II they
would turn a few of those men
lose on a half dozen school build
ings and stop DR.. Ballou from
worrying any more the music would
be great. Yes, there is a lot worse
things than being annoyed by a
pneumatic riveter working next
door to you.

man from Michigan, Mr.. Fordney,

that II it were it would ruin the
reputation of the House bill,
and therefore we struck 1t out
and saved the reputation of
both.
Mr.. Bursum. Mr.. President. will
say to the distinguished Senator
from Mississippi that I have not
been losing any sleep about the pos
sibility of running my reputation. In
fact, l would not be so sure that I
ever had any, so that I am not at

BERMUDA ONION.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1922-11-02

Next month completes my eighth year as
sheriff-ninety-six consecutive months in the
same office, and wish to express my apprecia-
ton of being reelected three times. At this
time when other men are asking for cOnsidera-
ton at the polls, am in the happy position OF
being only an interested spectator. But the
records of my office disclose some significant
facts which when studied, will answer many
questions that are being asked these days.
The tabulation given below, shows that in my
office there has been a steady increase in the
volume of business for eight years, but not quite
a corresponding increase in the expense of con-
Quoting the work.
The expense of a years work rose from
$S13.33 in 1915 to $1S18.06 in 1922, the last
quarter being estimate based on the average
of the first three quarters. The total income
rose from $2534.93 in 1915 to $S473.O2 in
1922; and the net income rose from $1721. 80
to $6854.O6.. The expense rose 223 per cent,
the total income rose 1874 per cent and the net
income rose 1877 per cent. ts
During this period the volume Of business in
other departments of the county government
not shown here must have increased, some Of
them in corresponding ratio, but the amount Of
help employed by them has not increased in
proportion, and should not. Some of the addi-
tional volume has been taken care of by in

HALLOWEEN PARTY

Saturday evening Misses Lena
Anderson, Thela Buchanan and Alta
Call and Messrs Ellis Chaplin and
Var Buchanan entertained about
thirty young couples at a Halloween
costume party at the Second ward
church.
The guests began to arrive at 8
o'clock in costumes Of every kind
and color and were given some
counterfeit money at the door as
they entered. From s until 8 O'Clock
many different games were played
including confetty battle and
fortune telling by drawing pictures
from behind a curtain. All Of the
guests seemed to get the spirit of
fun and made the sports as lively as
possible. At about 8 o'clock the
main event Of the evening started,
that of bidding for the ladies, who
marched one by one back of a white
screen SO that the young men could
see only their silhouette. The boys
were to. use the money which they
received at tn door and the bidders
started warm contest from the first
many Of them having to borrow
money from their lucky friends in
order to pay for their lady. After
the bidding the evening was spent in
dancing.
/ During the evening fresh cider,
apples, doughnuts and peanuts were
served. At 11.30 the guests de-
parted for their homes thanking the
hosts and hostesses for an evening
Of real fun and complimenting them
on their ability as entertainers.

creased efficiency, some by improved methods
and some by the natural process OF handiing
business cheaper as the volume increases.
BY consulting the table below, you will notlce
that the expense of my department decreaseed
at the close of the war. Tim came the hard
times of 1921, and troubles multiplied as shown
by the increased business for the sher1n. Inc
harder the times became, the more attachments
and foreclosures to make, and more summons
to serve, the more bad checks and crime. the
mere hurry-up trips, telephone and telegraph
bills and railroad fare to pay, and the more Dig
bills for extraditions and bringing. prisoners
back from other states, where they had been
captured.
Al courtesy to my fellow citizens who have
four times chosen me to fill an office that
sought, and for the satisfaction 1t affords me
to furnish them valuable information on the
eve of an election when they are considering
what to do in choosing for futures, cause this
information to be published. No other sheriff
Of this county has been in continuous service SO
long, no other eightyear period has been so full
of new experiences and conditions, and probably
no other department Of the county government
would furnish such an accurate barometer OF
the cost of operating.

and Luke Wright Of Idaho Falls,
are back from an unsuccessful deer
hunt on Big creek, which is a part

A. B. Stephens and wife and
James Young and wife hunted in the
same valley, but found it very diff
ficult to get game as 1t was SO dry
and warm and the deer remained
among the high peaks and when a
hunter tried stalking deer 1t could
easily hear the rustic Of the heritage
and the crack of limb If stepped
on, and would keep far away. The
party secured enough venison to
keep them in meat and to attract
a wolf to the camp.

Breeding Up Corn
By Seed Selection

DR.. G. "A. Hoover reports that he
has lately harvested his fourteen
acres Of Whiteflint corn and selected
a few bushels of very choice seed.
He has been selecting the seed for
several years, planting only the best
parts of the best ears. He selects
the ears that have not less than
twelve rows of kernels on them, that
are good form and full size, and
then he uses only the middle part of
the ear. This has made steady i'm
provement in the crops, and this
year he has found ears that have as
high as. eighteen rows of grains. His
seed for next year runs from twelve
to eighteen rows.
