/, Anew world record for f,iers was
made last. week. at Mineola, N. Y,
BY Edward Stinson and Lloyd Ber-
tand, who set out in q snowstorm
and remained in the air for over
twenty-six hours, thus raising the
worlds record heretofore held by
French flier by about two hours.
Their oil pump quit working after
they had been in the air seven hours
and they had to work a hand pump
to keep up fabrication and in doing
this they became badly benumbed
with the cold and froze some fingers.
They were thus unable to protect
themselves from the cold and had
no time to take food. When they
got froze out and starved out they
descended and still had oil and gaso-
line to have lasted several hours.

Both men were splattered with oil
from head to foot, their eyes were
blood shot and they were so deafened
with the roar of the 1870 horsepower
motor that they could scarcely COM
with the people who
flocked about them at the landing.

THE IDAHO REPUBLICAN
Alarm Clocks Are
Taking the Place of
The Wrist Watch

Here is true sign of the times
one of the real straws that shows
which way the wind is blowing.
jewelers. the country over, but
particularly out west, report that
people have quit buying wrist
watches and gone back to buying
alarm clocks. It does not take much
comment for that story to be under
stood. The jeweler probably makes
a net profit of Is cents on an alarm
clock, and maybe twice that much
on a wrist watch. but never mind.
He prefers to sell the homely old
alarm clock, which means that peo-
pie have made up their minds to
hustle out of beds these mornings
and get to work. 1t is one Of the
expressions of the people and when
you get enough of them thinking
that way the end is not very far out
of sight. 1t means, among other
tAings, that people will stop talking
about hard times and get down to
work and create normal times and
keep on Keeping busy. With people
working, with production increased
and at less cost, it is one Of the
healthful signs of the times. It
means that the hard earned money
is to, be spent for useful and essential
commodities, that there will be fewer
frills and more hard work; fewer
silk shirts and more cotton socks and
after all a more happy batter. salts
fed, and better contented people.
The alarm clock that is being sub
stituted for the wrist watch, will he
one of the sort of bells that ring In
the glad new year and better times.
Get yourself an alarm clock. Times

BY AUTO TO SALT LAKE

D. A. Jenkins and Will Mont.
gomery, who left Blackfoot last We'd
nesday for Salt Lake by the auto
route, reached destination after
some tribulations and delays. They
left here at l p. m. and reached
Malad the same day at 7.15.
They encountered snow thru
Marsh valley and thru Malad canyon
it was about two and a half feet
deep at the worst. Sleighing was
good, but the beaten track did not
fit the car, and they had to put out
the s. o. s. call to a teamster. He
pulled them about 200 yards and
them followed along behind them
for some distance to see II they got
stalled again, which they did not.
Mr.. Montgomery made the first pay
ment Of eight dollars on the pur-
chase Of the team, that being what
the teamster thought was about
right for pulling them 200 yards
and for riding thru the snow for a
while watching the rear end OF their
vehicle. .... .s
On Thursday morning they left
Malad at g o'clock and arrived at
the city by the lake at 8 p. m. As
soon as they got something to eat.
Mr.. Montgomery went out and
bought tickets to three sets Of shows
that were booked for the evening
and early morning, and took as many
Of his friends as he could pick up
on short notice. They entered the
lirst show at q p, m. and came out

finished it is almost q duplicate OF

and the voice.
When Mrs. Allen closed up her
doll factory last summer and came
to Blackfoot, the orders for dolls
followed her thru the mail, and so
Iinsistent were some Of her customers
upon having some of her dolls for
this years trade that she opened up
her home this year, put some Black
foot girls in training, and turned
out a lot of dolls for the holiday
trade. A good many girls in this
community have had pleasant and
profitable employment and have
learned some valuable lessons in ap-
plying the needle. People who have
studied the situation, have been very
much surprised at the possibilities
in doll making when carried on un-
der the policy that Mrs. Allen fol-
lows.
When Mrs. Allen designed this
particular kind Of doll she had II
patented and then makes line of
that kind Of dolls and they are all
named on little card with an appro-
pirate verse that goes with each doll.
She has number of different tyres

dividuality about 1t that makes II
distinctive and attractive. Mrs. AL
lens idea OF a doll is that it should
carry a lesson to child as we'll as /
to be plaything and a companion. |
The lesson which she sends out with
each child is portrayed partly in the
doll itself and partly In the card
that goes with It. It is always a |
lesson of smiles and of making the
home happier. Each doll is consid-

ROBBERY AT MOSCOW

Somebody entered the university
club at Moscow, Idaho, on Tuesday
morning and rifled the pockets OF
fifteen professors, and got only $50.
This was just after the first of
the month, and the professors say
this incident is pretty good proof
that they need higher salaries, since
they had only two dollars apiece two
days after pay day. sH.

The Vision That Is to Be.

To the Editor of Farm and Home !:
May l add one more voice in
praise of your proposal to the nation
al agricultural conference that the
United States take over the entire
navies of the Allies toward payment
of their debt, and accept on account
the nations other war equipment at
junk prices, loading those vessels and
our own navy with that junk, and
sailing this Grand Armada to the Pa
cific, there, with all flags flying, to
be sunk in Wyman deep 5000 faith
oms down!
This crushing burden and other
causes Of war being sunk beyond
resurrection, each people will police
their own lands and waters, and the
world will enter upon the thousand
years of peace and prosperity, follow
ing the century-old example of Can
ada an dthe United States, with a
world court to adjudicate disputes
between nations and with a world
wide public opinion to enforce its de-
crees."
For so the Associated Press this
morning heralds to weary world
your thrilling idea! 1t grips the
imagination. 1t is simple means
toward solving world troubles.
Public opinion, led by the press,
will force through your plan, if for
nothing more than the wonder of
this glorious spectacle, which shall
restore forthwith confidence in the
economic present and in the future
of business and inspire all people
for all time-that feet of war out
ward bound TO oblivion, sailing thru
the canal, joined in mid-Pacific by
the navies of South America, Japan
and China, and the nobly unique GER
emony of the sinking, with all flags
flying" and radio connected with
amplifiers carrying round the globe
the sound of cannon for the last
time, and the people everywhere
throughout the nations gathered in
mass meetings to celebrate the con-
summation of this outstanding event
in human history.
