Duncan came into the imelight
during the general strike in Seattle
in 1919. He was out OF the city
when the council put the question TO
referendum vote. Duncan said
that he was favorable 10 a Demon
stration for ~ hours, but did not
favor an indefinite strike.
He was called 10 the assistance Of
Mayor Ole Hanson and at his request
arranged meeting with the general
strike committee and framed the
resolution which called off the
strike.
The veteran secretary declared
Thursday morning that he has been
deslrous Of retiring for more than n
year and would have done so last
year had il not been for the fight
that was made upon him at that
time.

FRANCIS M. RI0RDAN

Francis M. Riordan died at his
home here Dec. 26 at GAS a. m.
He was taken sick the first of De-
cember with pneumonia, and all had
great hopes for his recovery until
he suffered a relapse Dec. 25 and
passed away the next day, death re-
sulting from pneumonia with COM
plications of uraemia.
Mr.. Riordan was born in Idaho
City, July '22, 1875, being AZ years
of age at the time of his death For
the past twelve years he had spent
the greater part of his time engaged
in business here with Jones & Mosier.
He was also interested in business in
Atlanta, Hill City and Featherville
at different times.
Through his honesty and kindness
he had won the respect and friend
ship of everyone who knew him. A
brother in Boise and a brother in
Portland survive him.
Great praise should be given Dr. |
C. Allen of Boise in his effort to !
reach the sufferer in time to admin
lister some aid to him, after having
been notified of his patients relapse.
DR.. Allen, with his chauffeur and Ed
Riordan, left Boise at midnight,
reaching here at a. m. This is a
record drive for this time of the year,
over the icy and snowy roads.
Mr.. Riordan was unconscious when
the doctor and brother arrived and
passed away soon after their arrival.
He was buried Dec. % at Boise,
n Silent Camp, Morris Hill Cemetery.

BIOLOGISTS, who In simpser lHnguaes. are the
Abug-oiogsts, after nicroscopicaliy observing the
habits and conduct eff arts for years. bring us the In
teresting information that these busy little workers
IN the humber world by their own voluntary
action the most morsl of all living creatures.
The ant, they tell US, is intelligent that We are
justified 10 trying to describe its existence by kind
of allegorical comparison with human Fife.
Busy these nsinute little creatures, their
females scrupuleusy clean. Several times each
day they better their appearance with combs and
brushes. The mothers the only ones that are
allowed to eat all they want. All others, by their
established law must abstain from eating and
drinking.
Soldier ants protect both the young and those who
care for the young. The mother ant IS treated with
all he Difference of empress
The ants limit their sleep to just that which IS
their need of and they destroy the drone and all
those who would attempt to over-induge in leisure
or luxury.
They have architects and engineers. They build
houses and bridges TO conform with definite plans.
They have their agriculture and horticulture and
have been observed to domestcate many 5S4
different kinds of creatures.
Wonderful is the story of the ant. Some of our
scientists who better biologists than sociologsts
quote the old Hebrew saying of thousands of years
ago, Go to the ant thou sluggard consider her way
and suggest that there is much in the ant the man
might well try to emulate.
Other scientists tell to consider the elephant.

SALES RECORD BROKEN
BY FORD COMPANY

According to a statement issued
by the Ford Motor Company, deliv-
cries of Ford cars and trucks to retail
buyers during the month of Novem-
Der totalled 1O6,327. This is a new
high sales record that has never be-
fore been approached by the COM
pany at this season of the year, and
one which stands out in marked con-
trast to the November, 1921, retail
delivery figures which totalled slight
ly over $4,000 cars and trucks.
For eight consecutive months, be-
ginning with April LIST of this year,
retail deliveries have exceeded 1907
600 Ford cars and trucks each
month; the accumulated total for the
first eleven months of 1922 being APP
proximately 100000. While the
company points out that it is not un-
usual for Ford retail sales to exceed
the 100000 mark during the spring
and early summer months, when the
demand is at its peak, the manner in
which business has held up through
out the balance of the year is with
out precedent. 4
Credit for this remarkable show
ing is attributed by the Ford Motor
Company to the many improvements
which have lately been made on Ford
cars, and particularly to the new low
level of Ford prices, recently put in
to effect. These new low prices not
only broaden the field of prospective
Ford purchases. but go still further
in making the Ford car the best value
from the standpoint of the retail
buyer that it has ever been.
Although the Ford factories have
been operating at capacity for the
past eight months, sales have
equaled production and Judging from
the unusual manner in which orders
are coming in at this season of the
year, Ford dealers will be unable to
accumulate an adequate stock of
cars during. the winter months for
delivery next spring.
In the opinion of the Ford Motor
November sales are an in
that many prospective pur-
,hasers, realizing the exceptional
value now being offered in Ford cars,
ire beginning to anticipate an I'M
Usual spring demand and are there
ore placing orders during the fall
nd will continue to do so through
tut the winter to avoid disappointing
lelays in delivery later on While
his will relieve the situation to some
xtent, 1t is pointed out that the
teadily increasing demand for Ford
airs is nevertheless sure to create an
cute shortage as the season adj
anees.
Accordingly, the Ford sales organ
,ation is urging prospective Ford
purchasers to arrange for delivery
uring the winter months in order
nat the demand next spring will be
elieved as far as possible.
