James Neal of Boise, the three players
who have completed their final year
of varsity football; Coach R. L..
Mathews, Albert Knudson, graduate
manager of athletics; President A. H.
Upham; and Wayne Davis of Gooding,
freshman captain.
1.-The traditions that Idaho teams
train, fight, and are never whipped
have been established" said Coach
Mathews. Playing an impossible
schedule the courage of the Idaho
PLAYERS never faltered. They were
better taem on Thanksgiving day in
the last game Of the season than in
any other game"
Praise For Players.
"The Idaho players made friends
at Seattle, Portland, and Pasadena.
In the last quarter of all three games
games against Washington, Oregon,
and use. the stands were cheering
for Idaho. The unselfish spirit of the
players is shown in their refusing to
elect a captain for next season with
six or seven men eligible. These elig-
ible men feel that it would be an in
Justice to other members of the
team"
Coach Mathews told of the Idaho
freshman team, of classes in football
during the winter and practice in the
spring for all football candidates.
Football A Business.
"The making of a football team is
a business" he said 1t is going
o take all the assistance of the stu

If the Pacific Coast conference, which
S a tough league. If everybody
helps it is my honest conviction that
IDAHO will be close to the top next

DENTAL OFFICES /
Are BURGLARIZED
,YEGGS SECURE $500 FROM FOUR
OFFICES IN FIRST NATIONAL
BANK BUILDING

The light-fingered gentry were
evidently featuring dental offices
Tuesday night, the three dental of
fices and one attorneys office in the
First National Bank building being
the targets for their operations in
Moscow, and the loot, in cash and
gold amounting to about 5000.
The offices of DR.. ]. A. Mcdaniel,
DR.. J. w. Barstow, DR.. G. c. Higgins
and Attorney Max Griffith were en-
tered and burglarized sometime dur
ing the night, probably after mid
night. Entrance to the offices of
Max Griffith and DR.. Higgins was
gained through the transoms, while
the locks on the doors of the Nc
Daniel and Barstow offices were
''jimmied,'' without damaging the
doors to any extent. The burglary
was discovered Wednesday morning
when the several victims came to
their offices and found drawers open
and the contents mussed up An in
ventory in the various offices show
ed two gold rings, with Masonic
emblems, quantity of gold plate
and $22 in cash missing from the Of
flee of DR.. Mcdaniel, the total
amounting to about $1OO; a gold Ma
sonic ring and gold plate, amounting
to about $45 from the office of DR..
Higgins; a heavy gold ring, with a
Chinese dragon set, valued at about
$20 and gold amounting to about $25
from the Barstow office and $S in
silver from the till in the Max Grif-
fifth office.
The sheriff's office and the city
police force were notified at once and
Sheriff John L. Woody and Deputy
Sheriff Summerfield with Policeman
Stanley at once ommenced work on

was finger marks, which were espec-

JURY Returns VERDICT
ON LAND APPRAISMEN1'

The jury in the case CT the Prince
ton-Harvard highway district against
Charles l.. Williamson brought in a
verdict of damages of $500 to be
awarded Mr.. Williamson in payment
for land condemned for road purposes
by the district. The testimony showed
that Mr.. Williamson declined an offer
of the district of S629 for the five and
quarters acres of land two
years ago.
The land was condemned and
board of appraisers awarded S421 for
the land which was refused The
road has been built for over a year
and runs along the edge of the Will

this district to be taken into court.

MELLON URGES REDUCTION OF
SURTAx RATES, In ANNUAL REPORT

$1,000, which appreciates in valu
may exchange that bond for anothe
Of the value of 1000, together witt
$1OO in cash, without the realization
of taxable income.
s'This provision of the act is being
widely abused,' he adds.
Aside from his recOmm endatiOns
for tax revision, Mr.. Mellon deals il
his report with conditions generally
| over the country and with the oper-
ations of the various divisions of The
treasury. He sounds an optimis istic
note as to the business outlook an6
reports substantial progress both IL
the reduction of the public debt and
in economy in public expenditures.
The past twelve months, he says
have been marked by further liqui-
dation and recovery from depression
and, more recently, by a substantial
revival Of business. Prices of COM
modities have risen materially, the
volume of business has been mount
ing to higher levels and labor through
out the country is again fully EN-
ployed.
"The year is closing with bounti-
full crops" the report continues and
the severe depression in agriculture
has been relieved. Banking condi-
tions generally are sound, money
rates are reasonable. and there
sufficient credit available to meet
all legitimate demands.
"In the treasury the year has seen
a reduction in the gross debt amount
ing to about 81 OOO,OOO,OO0, a balanc-
ed budget for the fiscal year 1922,
showing surplus of over 100000
600 above expenditures, and substan-
tial progress in the refunding of the
shOrt-dated debt, which has now been
reduced to manageable proportions.
These developments are all helpful,
and afford the basis for a revival of
business and industry on sound
lineSo
Into this situation, however, Mr..
Mellon injects a note of warming He
says the restriction of immigration
and the general resumption of indus
trial activity have resulted in a scar
city OF labor embarrassing to some
lines of business. He adds that the
railroads are suffering from under
and inadequate equip
ment, and are finding it difficult tc
move commodities to meet the de-
of business. AS consequence
farm products are selling too low at
the farm and too high at the distrib-
uting centers.
Enough forces are operating, he
continues, ''to make us cautious in
the prospects for the fut- /
ure and take care lest we build on
false basis. Business in this country
can not progress indefinitely with
out its foreign markets, and undue
expansion now, with rising costs and
artificial values, would inevitably |
SOW the seeds of reaction and make
more difficult the reestablishment of
formal relationships abroad.
"The treasury aims above all to
keep it's house in order in the belief
hat sound financial structure here
will in the long run afford the best
,asis for extending needed assistance
o Europe and for a healthful revival
# domestic business on constructive
ines"

PLANTERS HOTEL PASSES AFTER

st. Louis, Mo.-(A. P.)-The Plant
ers hotel today for the first time in
105 years stopped receiving guests.
The "Old Planters House, will be
converted into an office building
after January 1 and it was decided
late today to receive no more regis
trations, so that there would be ample
time to dispose of valuable furnish
ings and wind up all affairs of the
famous hoste1ry.
C. C. Nelson, president, announced
the doors would be locked as soon as
the last of the 800 guests had found
other quarters. The hotel, particu-
larly in the '40s and sos, was con-
sidered the social center of the south

BY Introducing into the postal
& service some of the flexibility that
would be present in private business.
Postmaster General Work has given
the country an illustration of the
Harding policy of more business in
government" As everybody knows.
in certain sections of the country it
is the practice of many business
houses to close up on Saturday aft
ernoon in the summer. That means.
Of course. less business at that time
for the postoffices. Mr.. Work has
. ordered that wherever such a situa-
ton exists and a part of the en-
ployees a be dismissed early with
postmasters shall dismiss Al many an
can be spared. That is what a good
private business house would do,
and what the government should do.
Postal employees should be held to
their Jobs the specified number of
hours, IL there Is anything for them
to do, but there Is no economy in
keeping an employee sitting idle in a
stuffy postoffice when there ia a
certainty that his services will not
be needed for an hour or two or for
the rest of the day. The govern
ment would gain nothing by requir-
ing the clerk to put in time. It
would lose, in fact, for the efficiency
OF the clerk would be relatively in
creased by his being relieved from
duty when not needed. OF course,
as indicated by the Postmaster Cen
eral. the release of clerks in this
name would be in exceptional
cases, when local business slack per-
mits, and would not mean the re-
tention of a larger number Of clerks
than necessary under normal condi-
tons.

In general there are three sources,
batteries, a motorgenerator set. and

then rectifed by an electrolytic rec

The use of batteries as a source Of
