SHORT LINE STORES COAL
TO GIVE PUBLIC SUPPLY

Pocatello, Idaho. A prominent Of
ficfal of the Oregon Short Line states
there has been stored for the Idaho
division $4,000 tons of coal as
against the coal strike. The other
divisions of the Short Line have
stored proportional tonnage in an
ticipation of the strike.
1t is estimated that this supply
will last so days even with reason
able heavy demand and longer, of
course, if the business of the CON-
pany should fall off.
The object of the heavy storage
was not only to protect the trans
portation but in order that all the
available coal might go to the
public during the strike.
1t is felt that this foresight, plus
the approach of milder weather, will
provide against fuel inconvenience
to the public.
There will be coal available from
Utah it is expected to supply domes-
tic and commercial demands, with
the Short Lines requirement pro-
vided for.

CLEANUP WEEK
THEN WHAT?

We've had thrift week, safety first
week. fire prevention week, en-
ployment week, home building week,
postal improvement week, Canada
United States week, prune week, self
denial week and now comes along
Cleanup Week, the most important
of all weeks. Next may come kiss
your-wife week and put-the-cat-out
week and a wear-rubber-heels week.
But in the meantime, remember that
this is Cleanup Week.
The idea is sort Of hangover
from the drive and the propaganda
methods of the war period: 1t is
supposed to convey the suggestions
that whatever they" are doing this
week must be worth doing or Sc
everybody would not be making so
much noise about II.
No week can mean as much to
as Cleanup Week, when
properly observed. 1t is not only a
protection to the public health, but
improves the attractiyeness of the
as well.
The citizen who takes as much
pride in his back yarc as he does in
the appearance of his front lawn is
the fellow who does not believe in
putting up a swell front and at the
same time maintain swill back.

HOME DESTROYED BY FIRE

The Fire Department was called
out Wednesday morning to ex-
tinguish the fire at the Guthrie
home on Seventh Avenue North and
River Street, which caught in the
roof by an overheated stove about
seven O'Clock. The house was
rather small structure with Just a
stove pipe extending through the
roof which was the cause of the &C
cldent. The boys did splendid work
as the entire roof was in a blaze
when they arrived and was quenched
within few minutes. The roof of
the building will be an entire loss
and practically all of the household
goods were destroyed by fire and
water. We understand there was no
insurance.

a two bit piece, said they had sold
a few small bull-heads to some for

PLAY PLEASES ALL.

under he auspices of the NJ. E.
Church and directed by Mrs. Stetler.
1t was one of the funniest enter.
tainments ever given in this vicinity,
full of pep and life. The audience
was convulsed with laughter most
of the time. Local hits and poems
brought a round of applause. 1t is
a pity we cannot have more such
plays, we need them. The High
School Auditorium was packed and
many could not even get within the
doors but packed the halls. 1t was
estimated there were between $50
and 500 persons.

\. S. OPERETTA
PLEASES PUBLIC
THE JAPANESE OPERETTA

Once again the young people OF
the High School scored a triumph.
The japanese Operetta, 20 Hara
San" put on by Mrs. Allen was a
success from every point of view.
The stage was set TO represent
japanese garden of rare beauty. The
young people garbed in the quaint
Japanese costumes rendered their
solos, duets and choruses with an
accuracy that indicates skill on the
part of the director, Mrs. Allen, and
painstaking effort and practice on
the part of the members of the Glee
Clubs. While we enjoy the foreign
talent that comes in the Lyceum
Courses, College Glee Clubs, etc,
yet none of it is more pleasing to
the general public and the patrons
OF the schools than these plays and
operettas that the High School knows
so we'll how to put on with degree
of accuracy and pleasing perfection
that closely rivals any of the foreign
talent entertainments that come our
way
