To GET
116 NEW GAS
HELMETS
Safety Lamps Also Added to
Equipment on Plea OF
Chief Watson.

A movement toward the moderni-
zation of the Districts fire de-
partment was taken yesterday When
the District Commissioners author
lied the purchase of 116 gas helmets
and thirty-five safety lamps.
This will be the first time that
safety lamps have been used by
the local department, and Chlef
Watson believes they will result IN
reducing injury among firefighters.
The lamps indicate by their light
the amount of oxygen in the room,
and when they go out the firepen
know that it is a danger signal Tor
him to leave. The lamps are at
tached to the firemen's belts.
In the past the Department had
a very limited supply of gas masks
and last year during the hearings
on the appropriation bill Chief Wat
son made a special plea that more
be provided. He said it would re-
suit not only in a reduction of fire
losses but would enable the firemen
to save lives under more difficult
circumstances.
Only one bid was received for the
new quota of gas masks and safety
lamps and they are expected to be
supplied to the Department in
couple Of weeks.

Rodeheaver, who for years

LOS ANGELES, July 25.-Ac-
cording to Daniel Frohman. noted
theatrical manager and president of
the Actors Fund of America. the
movies this year are taking greater
interest in their fellowman than
ever before.
Last week when the call was sent
forth for stars to appear at the
motion picture exposition on a GER
tain night. as a benefit for the ac-
tors fund. all but three invited were
on hand. Usually on occasions OF
this kind. the disappointments are
greater. For instance, the per-
formers promise to be on deck but
fail to appear at the final moment.
This seasons affair drew all the
big top notchers and the few. or
trio of absentees were not pissed.
III fact, when their names were
called the great stadium crowd
didn't give them as much as a
handicap. Frohman is of the oDin-
ion that in years to come the pic
ture industry will be the biggest
sirgle source of revenue for this
great professional charity.
John Bowers. the film leading
man, was thrown by a horse while
making a thrilling scene before the
camera. He suffered a broken leg.

From the influx of school

Former Nurse Suffered 20 Years
From Stomach Trouble
O'Briens Gives Relief
Here's letter Of particular interest to those uDho
haUe tried other remedies Without success:

Think of a woman-a nurse,
too-undergoing treatment for
stomach disorders over a period
of 20 years without obtaining
relief. Remedies of all kinds
were tried. Stomach special
lists, too, doctored her. Still
her condition did not improve.
Fact is, she grew worse. Got so
bad that she was seized with
severe cramps after every meal;
slept so poorly that. her nerves
finally gave out. An operation
was eventually arranged for.
About this time some one
suggested O'Brien's for Dyspep-
sia-but. read Mrs. Bridger's
own words:
81 have been troubled with
Indigestion, Nervousness and
Gastric Ulcers dating back for
20 years. After eating I would
be attacked by severe cramps.
Had spells of nervous crying
and rarely slept the night
through. I lost my appetite

and well recall not eating at
all for days at time.
"The first bottle of O'Brien's
for Dyspepsia brought such re-
lief that l knew l could safely
cancel my pending operation.
You can we'll believe my joy
when / 'phoned the doctor that
it was to be called off.
"Since taking O'Brien's I can
eat anything and do my own
housework. I sleep we'll at
night and do not have any
more crying spells" Mrs. w.
L. Bridger, SO Hobart St.,
Brighton, Mass.
O'Brien's is prepared after a

CHEESE FACTORY PAYS PATRONS

Last Friday was a red-letter day
in McCammon, for it was the first
pay day for the patrons of the local
cheese factory which started opera
tiOns here the first of June. Nearly
$4,000 was distributed among the far
mers of this community as their
share of the money derived from the
sale of cheese made at the factory
during the month of June. S1955.4S
was the exact amount parceled out
here, which represented a payment of
As and AZ one-hundredths cents per
pound for the butter fat. 1884
pounds of milk with an average test
of 1856 were brought to the factory
and from this milk 12,415 pounds of
fine quality cheese was manufactured.
1t cost &C per pound to produce the
cheese. Mr.. Voight, who recently re-
turned from Iowa with his family,
was in town yesterday and states that
he is pleased with the results being
obtained by the newly installed fac
tories over Southeastern Idaho, and
while the milk supply at the present
time is not quite as heavy as he had
hoped it would be, yet he thinks that
this will steadily increase as tims
goes on, and that Idaho will become
one Of the best dairy states in the
Union. He left here for the Grace
country where he will look over the
new factory there.-McCammon News.

purpose is to inculcate in the stud

public utility in everyday life. The
public utility companies of the state

The following universities have
