1t is noticed that each Friday pro-
gram so far has had Freshmen in it.
The Freshmen are very proud OF this
as they did not expect to take very
prominent part. The program of Nov.

one.
In the "B" section of algebra they
have been having a contest. Sides

helpful and enjoyable.
There is joke box set on the snei1

NEWS NOTES OF
THE ,JULESBURG
GRADE SCHOOL

Wednesday of last week was Halo
we'en. The sixth grade had a party.
A number of the pupils brought jack
O-Lanterns. We put one in each win
dow and lighted them with electric
lights. We all had very enjoyable
time playing games and eating the
peanuts which Miss Weston gave US.
Every week Miss Weston appoints
policeman who goes around the
sixth grade room to see if every aisle
is clean. The row which has the most
checks for untidiness must treat the
other rows to lollypops.
The second grade entertained the
noon by dramatizing the story of the
"Three Bears" We all enjoyed it
very much.
Miss Weller is reading 1.-THE Legend
of Sleepy Hollow" to the sixth grade
class. We like it very much.
The sixth grade had new readers
given out last week. They intend to
dramatize one of the stories in it call
of Hesperides."
1t was a great 10y. to all the boys
of the Julesburg grade school to find
that it was dry enough to play foot
ball Monday morning during their
gymnasium period. 1t was rather
muddy and some of US had very mud
the reriod, but that troubled US not

R. Y. BARNES DIES
i'm HOSPITAL AT
OMAHA, NEBR.

r. Y. Barnes, who was taken to an
Omaha hospital for treatment about
two weeks. ago, passed away at that
place Saturday, October 9th. The de-
ceased had been sufferer of anaemia
for the past number of years, and as
his condition had been very serious
for some weeks, the end was not un-
expected. A blood TRANSMISSION was
made at the hospital few DAYS pre-
ceding his death, in the hopes of
without satisfactory results. He SEEM
ed to rally after the treatment, but
within short time he began slowly
sinking and passed away late Satur-
day.
The remains were taken to the old
home at Baylis, ILL.,, where he will be
laid to rest beside two of his chill
'dren.
Mr.. Barnes had made his home in
this community for several years and
will be greatly missed by large num-
ber of friends.-Chappell (Nebr.)

ARMISTICE DAY, NOV. II

Next Sunday, November 11th. is
Armstice Day. Owing to the fact
that Armistice Day comes on Sunday
this year, the day will be observed
in various towns and cities on either
Saturday, November 10th or Monday,
November 18th with fitting ceremon-
les. Special services will be held in
the churches next Sunday.
1t is a mistaken and sad idea to
think that Armistice Day is an occa-
sion for only the American Legion. 1t
is, to be sure, an observance that mas
an especially vivid meaning to tn e
minds of the veterans of the w or d
War. But Armistice Day is of large
significance to every American citizen.
The world still holds to the faith
that November II, 1918, marked the
close of war such as the world can
never see again. It was war in
which many Of Americas finest young
men laid down their lives, or made
the equally great sacrifice of their
health and future in life. By what
machinery the peace of the world will
best be safeguarded is not yet settled,
but the American boys who laid down
their lives in France died in the faith
that snch would be the reward of their
sacrifice.
Armistice Day is an international
holiday that marks the triumph of
the ideals of justice and liberty
American ideals-in the World War.
1t was because the cost was so over
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1923-11-08

whelming that the nations of the
world, with one accord, set up this in
stitution.
There was none who profited less
in the World War than the American
soldier. Save for the consciousness
that in the hour of the great test of
manhood he played the part of man,
there has been little but sacrifice for
the service man, in spite of all the
reckless promises that were made as
the boys went away to war.
The fruits of the victory in the
World War are enjoyed not alone by
the soldiers, but even more by those
who were privileged to continue in
their every day life throughout the
war. 1t is strange that it should be
left to the service men, then to pre-
serve the significance Of Armistice
day.
In the years of the future Armis-
tice day will become a greater insti-
tuition in America. 1t will be observ-
ed as one Of the most important holi-
days. AS years pass the results of
the great war will become the more
apparent. Mankind will place truer
appraisal on the sacrifice of the men
who fought the war for the United
States, and as the veterans themselves
grow older, the memories of the war
the greatest experience of their lives,
will become more cherished and more
respected.

RETURN FROM EAST.

Mr.. and Mrs. Mike Darscheid
returned Monday evening from a
months visit to their old home
at Carlinville, Ill. When they
first arrived in the east the
weather was cool and agreeable
but before leaving it became
very. sultry and hot. They re-
turned home over the Southern
Pacific. Crop conditions in the
east, according to Mr.. Darscheid
are very good but in some local.
tiles in Illinois the crops are be-
ing materially damaged by the
chinch bug. Corn in Illinois
was selling for 90 cents a bushel
for feed.
Coming west, crop conditions
also looked good to them and in
many sections they noted that
the heavy rainfall had been de-
trimental to the farmers. IN
southern Idaho much alfalfa hay
was damaged by the rain after
being cut.
While they enjoyed every
minute of their visit they were
more than pleased to return to
their home near Cottonwood.

FOR NEW CARS ONLY.

Many automobile owners are
under the impression that if
they wait until August 1 they
will be entitled to the one-half
license fee charged on and after
that date. This one-half license
fee applies only to new cars and
if your car has ever been licensed
the assessor at Grangeville has
the necessary information by
which he can tell when you took
possession of your car. Many
car owners are also under
another impression, that if they
leave their cars in the garage all
summer they will not be requ1r-
ed to take out license. This is
true, but where the car owner
fails to buy a license for his car
the machine will be assessed as
personal property.
1t is also stated that all cars
operating with dealers license
are subject to assessment anC
tax the same as personal pro-
perty. The license plate on {
privately owned car is in lieu Of
all taxes.

he had not seen since leaving.
About 100 former students were
present. Mr.. Mckinney says it
was the finest vacation he ever
had.

MOVE WHOLE TOWN.

Removal Of the town of
American Falls to make room
for the storage basin of the great
American Falls American irri-
cation district marks an epoch
in the reclamation service of the
United States. The entire town
will be moved and in addition a
number of miles of railway will
be torn up in order to make room
for the immense project.
This reservoir will have a
capacity of 100000 acre feet
and will be the largest reservoir
in the United States and the
fourth largest in the world. The
floor of the reservoir will con-
tain $4,000 acres. The estimated
cost is $12,000,000 which in
cludes the cost of moving the
town and railroad and construc-
ton.
The project when complete
will water nearly 100000 acres
and offers the greatest asset
southern Idaho can contemplate
at the present time. Present
plans call for the irrigation Oh
nearly 100000 acres.

PARDONED PRISONER WILL
BE GIVEN NO PUBLICITY
Say 1t is Hard for Ex- Convict to
Find Employment and to Hold
Position or make Good"

A resolution advocating the
Withholding from publication of
names of prisoners paroled from
the penitentiary was passed Sat-
urday at an adjourned meeting
of the state parole board held at
the penitentiary. The resolu-
ton also excludes from publica-
ton of the names of prisoners
who apply for parole.
The action of the board was
taken, it was announced, follow
ing the meeting, to aid the pri-
soners who are given an oppor-
tunity to make good" "If the
names of those paroled are
broadcasted," said F. A. Jeter,
secretary of state and member
of the board, it will be very hard
for them to find employment and
they will become discouraged"
On the strength of the resolu-
ton, the names of several pri-
soners who were paroled Satur-
day, were withheld. None of
the paroles are effective for at
least 80 days and some of them
do not allow the prisoners their
liberty until 80 days have passed
The board calls the attention
Of the people of Idaho to the fact
that to enter a plea in behalf of
a prisoner at the penitentiary
who is applying for a parole, is a
violation of a state law. Here
after, it was announced, inter
cessions in behalf of prisoners
seeking parole will not be consi-
dered.
Protests against the parole of
a prisoner, however, may be filed
with the board.
Following the meeting Cover
nor G. G. Moore and a. II. Con-
ner, attorney general, and the
other two members Of the board
with Mr.. Jeter, inspected the
cells out of which five prisoners
escaped Wednesday night by
saving through the bars.
Three small sack saws, which
it is supposed were used to saw
through the bars, were found
The saws were about two inches
long and tied to wooden handles
Other tools which might have
been used to remove the iron OBJ
structions, were also found.
