FOR SOLDIERS GRAVES

Flanders fields, and the peoples on
the battlefields are suggestive of
soldiers graves, and thruout the
United States there will be peoples
on sale on Saturday, the twenty-sixth
of May, to raise money for decorat-
ing the graves of the men who fell
in France and Belgium in our de-
tense.
The peoples will be on sale at the
English Jewelry Store In Blackfoot,
at ten cents each, and the small
profits allowed to the store by the
national organization for handling
them will be used for charitable
purpose.
Members of he Legion Auxiliary
will be in charge of the sale of
peoples on the streets of Blackfoot,
ON Saturday, Monday and Tuesday.
Lest we forget" everybody is urged
to help the good cause, and to wear
poppy to show that they are in
sympathy with the movement. The
executive board of the Auxiliary,
which includes Mrs. G. A. Hoover,
president; and Mrs. Mark Tuohy,
Mrs. Dan Brill and Mrs. Wendell
Gagon, comprises the committee in
charge of the. sale. All of the
money collected by these ladies goes
to the national organization, and
will be used for the care of he SOL
diers' graves in France.

WILL HOLD A FAIR

| The Southeastern Idaho Fair will
operate this year as usual but not
on such extensive or expensive plans
as last year or the year before. This
was decided at a special meeting of
| the Commercial Club on Tuesday
evening at which the county COM
missioners all spoke explaining their
attitude toward the fair and asking
| the people present to make decla-
| ration of their own purposes about
! it. Thirty men were present, most
of them BlackfOot men, and every
body seemed to be in favor of hold
ing a fair. All who spoke on the
subject were in favor of conducting
| fair this year but conducting 1t on
more conservative lines than usual.
Aberdeen sent a message by the
county agent saying they were very
emphatically in favor of a fair.
John G. Brown spoke regarding
the organization of the fair twenty
one years ago, told how they did it,
how everybody donated their SER
vices excepting the laborers who
were hired to work by the day with
their teams and a few others doing
manual labor. Mr.. Brown said he
thought 1t would be a mistake not
to operate the fair this year and he
wanted to go on record as being in
favor of it,
Louis Felt reviewed the financial
situation confronting the fair, six or
seven thousand dollars of indebted
ness and treated it in such a humor-
Gus way that he kept the audience
in an uproar. A final payment of
$4,000 interest Is due on the mort
gage this year and Mr.. Felt pro-
posed asking an extension Of time
or of getting an extension for half
of it. Other speakers were: Editor
Trego, County Agent Walter Thomas,
E. j. Fjelsted and Harrison Nc
Knight, former secretaries of the
fair.
After the question Of the fair was
disposed Of the club voted to give
500 to the new road into Yellow
stone park and then discussed the
ways for keeping the Farm Bureau
alive this summer. The Commercial
Club will give aid to the Farm Blu
reau in membership and otherwise
provided the farmers show their
loyalty to 1t by taking membership.

TO LOVERS OF FLOWERS

Thre are not many people in
Blackfoot who love flowers so vio-
lently that they steal them. In re-
cent years there have been a few
Mexicans and a few students who
are SO afflicted. and some of them
were especially fond of lilacs, SO
fond that they split the bushes to
get the bloom. That ydiscourages the
folks who plant and cultivate the
bushes, and it is suggested that dur
ing the coming week or two while
the lilacs are in bloom, they either
leave the bloom to be admired on
the bushes or slash the bushes on the
other side this year so they will not
look so lop-sided. 1t is quite beyond
the skill and power of the gardener
to maintain the beauty and symmetry
Of the bush when they are pruned
by jerking all the limbs off on one
side. Besides that, the graduates
don't care quite so much for flow
ers that are purloined and then
handed up to them as mark Of
honor.
