SAN ANTONIO, Tex, December
13.-Imprisoned for ten days in the
hollow of a giant oak tree. Harry
Comstock, thirty -one, was rescued
yesterday by Bexar county deputy
sheriffs and farmers.
Comstock. who had been with
out food or water during his i'm
prisonment, drank almost a gallon
of water within a short time. He
was taken to the Bexar county
sheriff's Office and a physician
summoned. Food was given him
gradually.
He told his rescuers that he had
climbed into the tree in search of
shelter and fallen into the hollow.
His efforts to get out failed and
at intervals he shouted for help.
Not until noon yesterday was his
cry heard and help summoned 1t
took half an hour to hew into the
trunk
Comstock was very weak and
his body covered with bruises. He
said his mother lived at Kalama-
zoo, Mich.

mail Early" Dummy in
Position.

Postmaster Mooney borrowed a 81
pair of shoes from one OF his car
riers to place on the feet of the

When he went to look at his
dummy today the postmaster dis
covered that huge bolts had been
driven through the bottoms of the
shoes TO hold the carrier in posi-
ton. as 1t stands submerged beneath
a mass of parcels.
So the Washington city post Of
fee owes one of its carriers a new
pair of shoes for. Christmas. Post
master Mooney was casting around
this afternoon to work out way
to pay for the shoes.
1t would have been possible to OBJ
tain an old pair of shoes, had officials
known bolts would be driven through
the soles. II was stated.

habit of retiring at four o'clock in the

political life he ascribed to an innocent
oval constituency. He represents the

which he was first returned in 1885.
London, May 18th. An unusual scene
occurred in the House OF Commons,
which ended in the suspension OF the
Communist member Mr.. Newbold. The
vote s~uspending him was 300 to 50. Mr..
Newbold had sp lken dlSreSpecttulIy OF a
Chairman of a committee, Captain tItz-
row. Conservative member for NOrthamC-
tOnshire. Captain Fitzroy called upon
MIR. Newbold to Withdraw and this led
IN angry rpcriminatiCns between the
LaDourites and. the Char. Inc Labour-
ties reDroached the Chair for not allow
ing. Mr.. NeWbold to apologize. Captain
Fitzroy persisted in his ruling for the
withdrawal of Mr.. Newbold and called
upon the sergeant at arms to remove
MIR. Newbold who decided not to move
from his seat. Thereupon the Chair
sent for the speaker, who upheld the
action of Captain Fltzroy. This pro
vokpd fresh scenes OF acrimOny. The
sneaker seemingly thought Captain tItz-
row had acted hastily. but said ne could
only abide by the rules Of the House.
He suggested that Mr.. NewbOld could
make a communication to the House to-
e1orrow and that he believed the House

eminent. He invited the Government to
produce documentary proofs OF ITS
charges against the Soviet and maintained
that the Russian reply opened the way for
a settlement through an international
conference. Mr.. Nc Neill, in reply,
strongly repudiated the suggestion of
hostile intentions towards Russia. He
declared that the Government might
have a ''camus beIIi" Of its grievances,
but that such an idea had never for a
moment been entertained. The Govern
meDt did not desire to destroy the trad.
ing agreement between the two cOun-
tries, 6ut simply to ensure its proper
O~bservanceo. The Governments cOnCeS-
sion took a deal of the sting out of the
subsequent debate. in which Mr., Lloyd
George provoked hearty laughter by DE-
CIaring that M. Icnltcherln, the Soviet
Foreign Minister. was not a revolutionary
IN the commonly accepted use of the
term, but was really as great an artistic
crat as ca Zon.' The EX-Premier main
tanned that BOlShevIsm was a passing
phase. and that the Government ought
to realize that there YVES something much
more permanent than BolSheyism that
they were up against. They should
therefore take advantage Of the present
opportunity for conversation. Mr.. A
quith expressed a desire to as >ociate him
self with everything Mr.. Lloyd George
had said.
Mentone France. May 10Th Mr..

Cape Martin near here for some time, died
this morning. Mr.. Gould was stricken
with pneumonia al his villa on March

NAMED critical, but he then rallied and
on April Bird was said to be out of danger.
Three weeks later, however, he suffered
a relapse and on May Bird took a turn for
the worse. The end came peacefully.
His wife and children was at his bedside.

SCHOOL NOTES
-s-t+.t--t.s-t.s-t.Et-t.Ett


Leola Park, a primary student,
Irving, received very painful ACCT
dent when she fell and cut her arm
very badly on piece of glass. Sew
eral stitches were taken and the in
jury is so serious that she will in all
probability not be able to return
to school the remainder of this term.
Many of the high school pupils
and faculty members motored to Po-
catello to attend the track and field
meet which was held there on Fri
day. A half holiday was given so
that all might attend.
An auto race has been in progress
in the A class in Miss Coles room,
each row representing some we'll
known make of car. The two rows
who lost in the race which was a
contest in Idaho History entertained
the winners at games and lunch
on Friday afternoon.
Saturday the Misses Helen Har-
per, Inez Bjornson, E. Rorvick and
Lucille Graham walked to Fort Hail.
a distance of IL miles. They re-
turned on the afternoon train and
report a splendid trip.
The pupils of Mrs. Robbins fifth
grade have just completed study
of the different kinds of seeds. Many

interesting experiments were con-
Quoted. The children are now watch
ing the growth and development OF
plants from the seeds.
The Blackfoot Public Schools re-
sponded in a very splendid manner
to the Tag Day for the Library which
was carried on by the Current Event
club. The children wrote notes home
to their parents not simply asking
for donations, but that the parents
might aid them in earning the mon
ey or that they might be allowed
to sacrifice some of their own spend
ing money toward the worthy cause
and the following results are given:
High School, $3.50; Junior High,
1918 which made them 100 percent
in their offering; Central, $500,
and Irving $40. st. Margaret's
Parochial school gave $500 which
is a very splendid contribution from
so small a school Other schools in
the county also gave generously.
Mrs. Grimes first grade class has
just completed building houses for
the Three Bears, They are made
from packing boxes with two COM
partments which make an ideal two
story home. The walls are papered,
rugs and linoleum laid, furniture
made, and even pictures hung on
the walls of some of the homes.
The Sixth A class is enjoying a
very unique trip in reviewing the
work covered in geography during.
the past semester. The trip is thru
the Western States, and with the
aid of large map on which the
points Of stoppage are marked and
time tables, the trip is made very
realistic.
Some splendid results have been
achieved by the pupils of Miss Spen-
GERS First Grade and Miss Graham's
Second Grade in penmanship. The
children sent their drills to the Pal
mer School at Portland, Oregon, for
and all but two from each
room were awarded Silver Star But
tons.
A splendid program was enjoyed
at Irving school on Arbor Day, con-
sisting of America" by the school;

in general These results having
been accomplished it would seem
that the time is now ripe to eXpend
less money in supervision or field

may have been necessary during the

organization of various gun clubs
and sportsmen associations and the

an appropriation basis, no money
being appropriated by the legislature

that in bringing the department up
to it's present standard large force
was required and it was necessary
to experiment more or less along
these lines, isn't it now about time
that we had something of tangible
nature to account for the way this
arge revenue is expended? That is
The hope and aim of the department
