REVIVAL IN WOOL
ENCOURAGES IDAHO

Conditions in southern Idaho are
much improved as indicated by the
financial barometer of southern Ida
ho-the wool industry" was the
statement made today by Prem Moore
of Boise poultry expert of the Uni
versity of Idaho extension service, who
is in Moscow to confer with univers-
ity officials
'Three million dollars worth of wool
was sold out of Boise recently. The
wool buying is active with the woods
full of wool buyers. Most of the 1922
clip has been sold at prices ranging
from 81 to 3S cents. AS the wool in
dustry is the financial barometer of
southern Idaho the business men and
people generally are much encourag-
ed over the general improved condi-
tions in business
'"The prospects are good for an ex-
cellent fruit crop and the lettuce in
dustry is booming. At Paul 100 acres
of lettuce has been put in by the
Akuf brothers. A Japanese expert
gardener has been brought in to look
after the crop and the crop has been
contracted for marketing by Cal
ifornia produce company"

TO SHOW WOMANpS
PART in AFFAIRS
LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS TO
MEET WEDNESDAY-OUT
PHASES OF GOVERNMENT.

Echoes from the meeting at which
Lady AstOr recently spoke in Balti-
more and outlines of our government,
national, state, and local, will be the
subjects presented at the meeting of
the League of Women Voters next
Wednesday at $3.50 O'Clock in room 5
the high school building. Judge j.
H. Forney will speak on our national
government, C. J. Hugo will tell of
our state, and A. H. Oversmith will
describe our local government.
All three speakers will try to show
what part women can play in our gov
ernment and will be ready to answer
questions raised by their audience.
All women are cordially invited to
hear these talks and join in the open
discussion.
Branch of National
The Moscow League of Women Vot-
ers is but a branch of a nationwide
organization. The purpose of this or
ganization is to educate women in
their duties as citizens and to bring
them together without regard for po-
litical parties for the supporting of is
sues which affect their homes and
children. A recent measure which had
the support of these women was the
Sehppard-Towner Maternity bill,
which was passed by congress and
brings aid and instruction to mothers
all over the country.
Another bill now before congress
and receiving the backing of the
League of Women Voters is the Cur
tbs bill which will bestow complete and
independent citizenship upon women.
This will, for one thing, abolish such
instances as the, recent one in which
an American woman lawyer lost her
American citizenship by marrying
foreigner.
Conventions Work Reviewed
Lady Astor came from England es-
pecially to attend the meetings held
by the League of Women Voters dur
ing their convention in Baltimore last
month. A brief resume of the work
of that convention will be given at the
League of Women Voters meeting here
next Wednesday.
This next meeting will be in charge
of the citizenship committee of the
local League of Women Voters, OF
which Mrs J. NJ. O'Gorman and Mrs.
H. C. Dale are the present members.

LION FALLS OVERHEARD
Crowds Scramble to Safety While
Ships Crew Goes to Rescue.

There's a lion overboard!" This
cry coming from the deck of the liner
Bayern, docked in the Hudson at New
York, gave crowds thrill and sent
them scurrying to safety as the beast
was pulled from the river by his keep

Once ashore, the lion was too cold
and wet to be ferocious. The less

places to. see him backed into his
cage The Bayern brought over a
regular 700.
Dan, the trained lion, was in need
of exercise. His keeper led him on
deck at the end of chain. Dan had
not acquired his sea legs, and lurch
Of the vessel sent him tumbling over
the side. The keeper grabbed rope
and yelled for launch. Dams rOars
were drowning out the screams of
passengers and the shrieks Of tugs,
when rope was slipped about his
neck and he was pulled to the pier
He proved lions can swim
