But Why to Boise Park?

Forest rangers, game wardens
and others who follow the life
of the woods are sometimes
called to perform peculiar func-
tions. Forest Guard Tom Alex
ander Of the Selway national
forest and Game Warden Andy
Hjort Of Kooskia were recently
called upon for such extraordin-
ary service, says a Koosl1ia spec
ial in the Lewiston Tribune.
Some time ago a camping
party at Indian lake, on the
headquarters of the Selway river
found a young moose calf which
had fallen into a narrow "beaver
ditch" from which it could not
extricate itself. 1t was almost
dead from cold and hunger when
found. Members of the party
rescued it and induced the bell
mare Of their pack train, which
fortunately had a young colt, to
act as its foster-mother during
their stay in the hills.
The disposition Of the calf be-
came a problem when the time
came for the party tc leave.
Under the Idaho game laws the
calf could not be taken from
the state with the party; if left
behind he would starve. Forest
Guard Alexander saved the day
by offering to care for the or
phan with condensed milk and
an improvised nursing bottle.
This duty he nerformed, until
relieved by Game Warden Hjort.
Mr.. Hort is acting as foster
mother until such time as the
calf is in condition to travel to
Kooskia. AS soon as it is able
to travel it will be brought out
and shipped to Boise park.

Henderson. Surveyors will be
here right away to make what
changes are advisable in the sur
vey and Mr.. Osborne said that
he was quite confident the road
could be built with the $4,000
available. He anticipates some
lively bidding for the contract,
as the work is such that it can
be carried on almost all winter
unless the weather and snow are
more severe than usual. SO i

The Largest Trout.

Folks Of this community have
penchant for fishing almost
bordering on the abnormal, and
their angling expeditions often
take them into distant waters,
whence they bring alluring stor-
Les and sometimes interesting
evidence. But it remained for
nearby Lawyer Is creek, right
here at our back door, to give
us the premium trout of the sea-
son. This particular specimen
was taken last Sunday by Frank
Billups of this city at point
known as the Fuller grade about
seven miles southeast Of town.
He measured 1612 inches from
tip to tip and weighed two
pounds. Bdsides this beauty,
Mr.. Billups and his fishing part
ned took catch well up to the
legal limit ranging in lengths
from eight to twelve inches.

CHARGE GRAND LARCENY.
Henry Sullivan Files Cattle
Theft Complaint Against
Julian Blodsworth.--
Case to District
Court.

Henry Sullivan, prominent
and well known farmer and
stock man of the Mohler section.
on Monday filed complaint III
the probate court here charging
Julian Blodsworth, also a prom.
inent and well known farmer
and stock man of the lower
Central Ridge section, with
grand larceny, specifying that
during November, 1921 or there
abouts, Blodsworth took from
the Sullivan herd year and j.
half old heifer and placed his
brand JB upon the same.
On thee date the complaint
was filed, Mr.. Blodsworth ap-
peared in the probate court in
answer to summons and heard
the complaint read He waived
preliminary examination and
was bound over to the district
court in the sum of $4,000, which
bond was given by him.
Wide interest attaches to this
incident because of the promin-
ence and popularity of the two
principals. Both are pioneers
Of their respective sections and
both have long been extensively
engaged in farming and cattle
raising, and their respective
herds range in and along the
breaks of Big Canyon.

This is the lightest crop the

VACATIONS
GONE get vacations, but others get

GONE get vacations, but others get
~ none
But those in the latter class will not
make their lives any more happy by
complaining that they get a poor deal.
The more they think they are unfor-
tunate and the more they talk about
their hard luck, the greater they will
believe their pathways burdens to be.
Everyone ought to have a rest now
and then Vacations are valuable not
alone to those who get them, but also
to those who grant workers periods
of rest. But they are only valuable
when used in the proper way. If one
is to get more enjoyment from his
work after vacation or if he is to be
more efficient and produce more daily,
he must return to desk, store or shop
rested in body and brain and without
disturbing problems to distract his
thoughts
Those who can't get away for vaca-
lions would find much consolation if
they realized that some whom they
consider fortunate in vacationing don't
benefit at all. Instead of resting too
many on vacation work harder than
when they are home and frequently
spend much more than they can af-
ford. Then, upon their return they
are tired and unhappy and find them
selves sorely distressed by meeting
their debts.
Half the fun of vacation days is
lost because the days off, are not put
to proper use. Far better to devote
these periods to restful, healthful,
happy outings in the woods where ex-
penses are small, THAI. to dash madly
around fashionable resorts at such a
rapid pace that ones strength and
pocketbooS are worn out.
It's mistake to blame vacations
for causing misfortunes, for increas-
ing sin and discomfort or for being
harsh on ones purse But for the
fact that people exercise such terribly
poor Judgment in choosing ways to
amuse themselves when they are so
lucky as to have days off" vaca-
lions would be of much greater bene-
fit to the health and happiness of all.
When one cannot eat chocolate
cake without getting indigestion, he
shows little sense in eating it. And
the improper use of vacation DAYS is
senseless, too
