TECH PLANS SUMMER SCHOOL

Announcements of a nine weeks
summer school for teachers to be
held at the Tech beginning the
second week in June have been made
by President G. r. Frazier. Thru
the action OF the recent legislature,
high school graduates may still Sc
cure certificates to teach after taking
the nine weeks normal course. At
the Tech summer teachers training
course all subjects will be offered
leading to first, second and third
grade certificates and to permanent
first grade papers. In addition to
the regular teachers courses, there
will be opportunity for those wishing
to prepare for commercial positions
or for teaching commercial subjects.
Prof. Charles H. Lewis, head of the
be director of the summer session.
He will be aided by much larger
faculty than heretofore, so that the
classes will be much smaller and
more efficient.
Journalism Course Opened
A course in elementary journalism
has been authorized by the Tech
faculty and was begun last week.
About a dozen students have enrolled
for this beginning class. The demand
for this course comes largely from
prospective teachers, librarians, and
members of the staff of the Tech
paper who wish to acquire a better
knowledge of newspaper style in
order to be able to improve them
selves in their own lines of work.
The course will also serve as foun-
dation for later training for students
interested in journalism as a pro-
fessoin. From two to four credits a
year may be. earned in this course.

MERCHANT RETURNS HOME

James Ryan, manager of the
Golden Rule store is back from six
weeks in the east, and says that
business is good there and seemingly
everybody employed at good wages,
almost up to the 1920 mark. They
have the buying power in their
pockets now and are buying freely
and nobody says anything about dull
times.
He says it is very refreshing to
see the new designs in women's
wearing apparel this season, it being
so simple and yet SO varied that any
body, rich or poor can be. fitted out
in style with something to suit the
purse. Last years patterns, he said,
were not so flexible and seemed de-
signed with the idea that everybody
had money, or at least, designed
without meeting the needs of the
person of modest means.

LEGION AUXILIARY MEETS

The women's auxiliary of the
Blackfoot chapter of the American
Legion held the regular semi
monthly meeting at the K. of P. hall,
Wednesday evening, March IA, at
which time twelve new members
were reported.
An urgent appeal came from Boise
for comfortable chair for use by
the soldiers in the World War Vet
Grams hospital
While all necessities are pro-
vided the boys at the hospital, there
are few luXuries other than those do
mated by interested parties or organ
izations. The boys who are crippled
physically want picture puzzles,
cards, books and games of all kinds;
while those who are suffering from
mental Affections would appreciate
vegetable and flower seeds or plants.
Anyone, whether a member of the
auxiliary or not, having anything
which they wish to give can do so by
getting in touch with Mrs. Rex Dun
lap, chairman of the Blackfoot auxil-
larry disqualification committee.
me third week OF every other
month will be known as Cookie
Week" in the local chapter, at which
time twenty dozen or more cookies

year ago and his condition Is re-
ported to be unimproved. articles
for Mr.. Hall should be left at
RowlesMack store, where they are
kept until Saturday, when they are
taken to the young mans home.
The next meeting will be held at
the K. Of P. hall Wednesday even
ing, March %, at 8 o'clock.

ATTEND THE STYHE SHOW

| This Friday evening the Brown
Hart company will put on their
second style show, and in view of the
good that has been done heretofore
by such shows in Blackfoot, enabling
| people to dress better for the same
| money, to dress as we'll for less
money, and to get hold Of the ideas
of harmony that add so much to the
matter of selections and blending of
goods and colors, the rich and the
poor alike should attend and learn
what they can at the demonstration.
People who put on a style show
and teach these valuab BILE lessons, and
especially those who do so in hard
times when people still want to dress
and want to do 1t at the least pos
sible outlay, are doing the commun-
ity real service.
1t used to be that people with
plenty Of means went shopping and
bought things that we're so insult
able to them, so contradictory In
their blending with the individual
and with the other things in the
makeup, that their appearance in
them was disagreeable and even re-
pulsive. They had not been taught
how to select, and judged from
wrong standards. In the last year
and a half since the first style show
was put on, there has been more i'm
provement in the attire of local
women and girls and in the matching
of hats with the suits than there had
been in years before that.
These demonstrations teach what
cannot be taught by an advertise
ment on the printed page except by
the use of many colors of ink, and
that is out of the question for local
papers. They teach what can only
be driven home by seeing the living
models and noting matters of COM
plexion, height, form and age. AS
the models appear for review, do not
fail to observe all of these things;
they pause and turn and exhibit all
these things for sufficient time to
make ample comparisons, and many
are the people who will learn more
in one evening in this way than they |
have learned in all their lives with
out anybody to direct their observa-
lions and to demonstrate their les
sons.
Be at the style show, and the
poorer you are in dollars and cents,
the more reason why you should go
and learn how to use properly the
little that you do spend.

THE CITY BUSINESS

At the council meeting Tuesday
evening they sat until midnight
They had visitors in w. R. Malan,
general manager of the Wheelright
Construction company of Ogden, and
w. R. Skeen, an attorney. There is
still an unsettled claim of the Wheel
right company before the council for
features of the waterworks cOnstruc-
ton of 1921, and they are trying to
get it fixed up.
Ordinance number 284 was passed,
it being a step in the refunding of
bonds, and ordinance number 285,
published in this issue, fixing the
salaries of the city officials at the
same as they have been.
A legal question as to whether all
voters have to register for the spring
election, was reported on by the city
attorney, and they will all have to
register. Clerk Quillin is doing it at
the City Hall, and when you go that
way or to the library is good time
to attend to it.
question of creating fund to
put on interest, and use the interest
for the perpetual care of lots in the
cemetery was discussed. The price
named was $50 lot, and it was sug-
gested that $50 be added to the sale
price of all lots where people want
such care, but there was opposition
to that The plan that seemed most
favored was to take the southern
corner and make it into fine lawn,
and then go to selling lots in that at
the DerDetual care rate and all who
want to take that plan can buy in
that corner. The subject was left
open for further consideration.

NANIPA BANK TROUBLES

The First National bank of Nampa
did not open Monday morning and a
placard on the door said it was in the
hands of the bank examiner for the
present. When the other two banks
in the town opened there was line
of people at each place waiting to go
in and draw out their funds. The
run lasted an hour or so at one and
shorter time at the other, and
everybody went away satisfied. The
bank officials said they had plenty of
money to take care of everybody and
could bring in more from Boise if it
was needed. Some of the folks who
cashed in, logged their money out
and loitered around some and then
returned and deposited it again.
During the afternoon, a lot of the
Nampa merchants and others got to-
gether and decided to raise enough
money if possible to relieve whatever
the First National
might be confronted with, and make
sure that it was protected and
opened again as soon as possible.
Many of those who had money on de-
post in the bank, offered to just turn
it over to the bank to use for some
definite period after it opened, and in
this way, release deposits for others
who had to have theirs to save them
from serious troubles. There was
spirit of mutual heipfulness among
the people, and they all seemed to
want to keep the bank open, keep the
schools protected, and keep every
body protected If they could.

sideration.

A BETTER POTATO PRICE

The price of potatoes has gone up
little this week, and on Thursday
morning the market at Blackfoot
was given us as 40 cents for rurals
and SO cents for russets.
Theer seems to have been quite a
f1uctuation in prices up and down the
valley, and with slight hope that they
will go up far or remain up.
