BOY SCOUT OPERATIONS

At the Tuesday melting of Troop
Four, merit cards were issued to
Edgar Ketchum, Ellis Murphy and
Charles Vanderwood for personal
help rendered, for first aid to ami
mails, for swimming, knowledge OF
automobiles as CLEANED from the
scout course of study and first aid
work learned.
Two boys, whose names are with
held, were court martialed and sus-
pended for six weeks and fined rs
cents EACH, the offense being dis
obedience.
On Thursday the court of honor
was to meet and conduct examina-
lions of all first class scouts and de-
termine the awards of badges. The
court consists of H. B. Kinney,
James Ryan, L. E. Woodruff, James
Boyle and w. E. Bills.
At the meeting of a week ago
Tuesday the merit badges were is
sued to Graham Parkinson, John
Hale and Harold Hines for personal
help, first aid, swimming and
knowledge of automobiles and cleo
tricity, these being included in the
list of sixty-three studies by the
scouts.
Leroy Jones is the scout master
troop at that meeting. He had
noticed that Carr Beebe and his
father were great pals in business
and otherwise, and he asked Carr
to address the scouts on Relations
of Father and Son. and he re-
sponded to the invitation without
any hesitation. When he appeared
before the troop he gave them such
a fine sensible talk that it made all
the boys wish that dad could be
there and hear it too. If the scouts
are mellowing up toward their
fathers more than they did before, it
affords fine opportunity for fathers
and sons to get busy on the de-
lightful job of getting really ac-
quainted. In a good many cases
they are on speaking terms, but
never really know each other in that
chummy relation that Mr.. Beebe de-
scribed to them as the way to get
the most joy out of life.
Scout Master Jones wants to get |
Carr for an assistant, but Carr has
been so busy learning all about his
father's business, and Is so fascin-
ated with it, he hesitates about TAX
ing any time from that and such !
social affairs as he can find time for.
In fact he has been fighting for
more time already, and now comes
he scout master to ask for part
If what he already has, so, as we
said, Carr hesitates, but goes on
writing insurance.

NJ. 1. A. DEBATES LAST SUNDAY

Sunday evening the Mutual I'M
provement association put on two
debates at the second ward chapel to
a packed house. The first was
Resolved that Universal Peace is
Possible Thru Arbitration" and was

Ellis Chaplin. The negative was pre-
scented by Roxey Duckworth and
Var Buchanan, and the negative
won.
The second debate was Resolved
that the maiden lady is of more
benefit to the community than the
bachelor" and it was supported by
Lila Liljenquist and Dorothy Cob
bley. George H. Smith Sr. and Brig
Horricks presented the negative,
and on both sides there was aru-
ment that kept the house uproarious
with mirth. The affirmative won.

CITY COUNCIL MET

The city council held a meeting
on Tuesday evening and took care
of routine business, and passed or
dinance No. $50 revising the hours
for Sunday picture shows, making
the privilege continuous from p.
m. until IL. Before that they had
been required to close for an hour
from to Z and it was not very sat
isfactory.
The afternoon shows begin at 4
O'Clock and the ordinance still pro-
hibits selling tickets or letting any
one in the door until the hour of 4
o'clock. 1t seems to have been an
oversight in the provisions of the
ordinance not to allow the public to
get in out of the cold, and sit in the
building while the house was filing
up ready for the start of the pictures
at four. The show either has to
start late or practically all of the
audience misses seeing the first of it,
1t is said that the churches are Op-
posing any further extension of the
Sunday hours, but it is probably not
understood that their firm stand on
the matter is keeping people stand
ing out on the curb in zero weather
merely to honor the technical letter
of the law. If the city officers and
the persons insisting on strict en-
forcement could arrive at a liberal
Interpretation of the time for selling

POCATELLO BOY KILLS FATHER

Floyd Sandusky of McCammon
shot and killed his father few days
ago and confessed the deed. The
father had just been pardoned from
the Idaho penitentiary where he
had been confined for six years for
stabbing his wife twenty-eight times
in an effort to kill her. The boy
was then ten years old, and when
Sandusky returned home last week
and began making trouble, and as
Floyd says, threatened to kill them
all, he took shot at his father, the
bullet merely cutting thru his nose.
Sandusky then boarded an east
bound train, and the boy also got
on and hunting him up, he shot him
five times, and then surrendered
and said he did 1t to protect his
mother against further attacks.
Floyd Is held on a murder charge.

A LOCAL BOXING CONTEST

The pupils of the high school
were entertained at their regular
weekly chapel hour Friday by an
unusual program. Four boxing
matches were staged, of three, one
minute rounds each, in the same
manner as would professional
match. 1t was a surprise to the
students and furnished much amuse-
ment. Each battler had his seconds
and the bouts were refereed by
Coach Ray Holder.
The first bout was between "Kid"
Parsons and "Stringy" Stringham,
which resulted in a victory for
kid" Parsons, who knocked String
ham for the count in the third
round.
In the second bout, between
Cyclone" Jensen and Battling"
Nelson, Jensen took the count of six
in the second round, but rallied and
won the decision on points. A
catastrophe was prevented in this
bout when the referee found an
iron bar concealed on one contestant
and large stick on the other.
The third bout, between RED"
VanderwoOd and Rusty" Tanner
resulted in draw while In the
fourth, between Tornado" Hopkins
and "Fade-a-way" Stringfellow the
sponge had to be thrown in during
the first round on account of an in
jured knuckle on Hopkins.
All of the contestants were pupils
of the high school and during the
bouts some of the girls got little
faint hearted for fear some of them
would get hurt, but in the end all
was we'll, no one being hurt seri-
ously. This is the first time that
anything of this kind has been done
in the school and it was done more
as a farce than to promote prize
boxing.

BASKET BALL NEWS

Friday evening the Blackfoot
high school basket ball team mo-
tored to Pocatello and played their
team in the tech gymnasium, and
were defeated by score of 4S to
IT. This was the first time that
the local boys had played on the
tech floor and it confused them so
much that even tho they got close
to the basket many times they
could not get good aim. The POca-
tello team has played in two tourna-
ments in that gym and were at
| home and had the advantage over
the local boys, who were all new
men. When Pocatello comes to
Blackfoot next week they are due
for their first defeat in this confer
ence. Blackfoot plays Firth on the
local floor this Thursday evening
and they expect to defeat Firth
worse than they were defeated at
Firth a few weeks ago.
The Blackfoot town team played
the Tech Thirds after the high
school game and were defeated by
score of 16 toll. Their star for
to be there and the team was weak

team showed unusual ability in pass
ing the ball.
The Blackfoot high school girls
team played the girls at Riverside
Friday evening and were defeated by
score of % to 8, but they think
they can return the defeat with
even greater odds in another game.
Wednesday evening the Blackfoot
town basket ball team played Firth
at Shelley and defaeted them by a
score of 23 to %. The Blackfoot
whoopsters took the lead in the very
beginning with ten points before the
Firth and Shelley team scored. The
first half ended with Blackfoot five
points in the lead and altho the OPP
posing team came back strong in
the second half they were held to
few scores and the local team came
out one point ahead. This is the
first time that Blackfoot has de-
feated the Firth team. Holder
starred for Blackfoot, making five
field goals and three free throws.
The town team will play Riverside
here this Thursday evening In con-
nection with the high school game
and they hope to reverse the score of
a couple of weeks ago when River
side defeated them by a score of 26
to rs.

Swan Valley on Tuesday, but only

ASSESSORS NOTICE
Licensing of Motor Cars

All car owners please take
notice, or fail to do SO at your
own risk.
All motor car license fees are
due January 1 of each year, and
this year the new secretary OF
state, F. A. Jeter, has set the
dead line when all motor cars
must carry 1923 license plates or
receipt on the wind shield show
ing application having been made,
before they are operated on the
highway. THIS DEAD LINE is

. forget the date and warn all other
car owners, for the law will be en-
forced in this matter.
All other motor cars owned or
purchased between January 1 and
August 1 will be subject to full
license fees, with the exception of
cars five years old, or rather cars
on which the full license was

CITY PAYING UP

Elsewhere in this issue is the
warrant call by City Treasurer l.. j.
Chapman, calling in all the out
standing warrants of the general
fund for redemption. There is
enough money in the general fund
now to clean up all warrants issued.
There are some outstanding war
rants drawn on the other funds that
will not be taken up until the second
installment of taxes is paid in, but
with that paid the clean up would
be complete as to warrants.
Mr.. Chapman says that this is the
first time in the six years he has
been treasurer when so good con-
dition prevailed.

For all the fond and earnest inquiries
of the psychists, we are no nearer a
true knowledge Of disembodied per-
sonality than we have ever been since
Pythagoras. Primary origin, or crea-
ton, is as profound mystery to us
as ever. The world alone is ours, and,
living, 1t limits our scopes and hopes.
Why are we in such a mortal hurry
to waste our estate in our first years
of its possession? Let us, In heavens
name, slow down, disintegrate and re-
cover, before too late, our ancient
sense Of the sweet and sober uses Of
time.

have interpreted the law to read
that five year old car purchased
after August 1, is entitled to two
thirds license on account Of age,
and one-half of that two-thirds
on account of date of purchase,
has led to serious abuses, even to
the selling of an old car around
to each other in the family, in
order to show new ownership
each year. Old cars will not be
allowed reduction on account of
date of purchase.
Car owners are invited to call
in person or on the phone for
further information. Be sure
you're right, then go ahead.
I would just as soon take your
application by mail as in person,
but each applicant is required to
sign his own application or
authorize me to sign for him, so
be sure If you apply by mail, that
you clip out Of the paper the fol-
lowing authorization blank, sign
the same and also have witness
sign with you, merely as to your

me with check to cover, and your
plates will come to you without
further trouble, providing your
check is good.
