LOSING A GOOD FIRM

The Beachy Shoe company cleaned
up their stock and closed their
Blackfoot store on February %, and
Blackfoot lost a good firm and some
good men. The goods on hand were
shipped to the Idaho Falls store and
fixtures and shelving were packed
for shipment, the last of them leav-
ing on the last day of the lease.
Mr.. Crabtree and Mr.. Beachy, in
charge of the business, lived in
Blackfoot, and their families moved
to Idaho Falls on Thursday. Both
gentlemen were active in public af-
fairs and will be missed. Men who
have worked with them on commit
tees always found them energetic
and willing workers, ever ready to do
their share and more.
People who own buildings and
rent them, can get an unusual meas
ure of the character of the renter by
observing what kind of care he gives
the property in his charge, and
lastly, by noticing what condition
he leaves it in when he moves out.
The unusually good citizen shows it
by sweeping the floors or having
them swept, and trash disposed of
the last thing before turning the
keys over to the owner. Failure to
do this is not sign of poor citizen.
but he who attends to it leaves a
proof of his worth, and the Beachy
people left the building in good con-
dition and the floors clean. That is
an index of the way they and their
families did in all things for the
several years of their residence in
the town, and it is a loss to have
them go.

NEW AGENT ARRIVED

R. w. Kelley and his wife and son
came down from Sugar City the first
of the week, and Mr.. Kelley took up
the duties of Short Line agent for
Blackfoot
Mr.. Kelley has been with the rail-
way company about twenty years and
is just approaching middle age. He
believes in buying home in the
town where his work is, and he ex-
poets to look over Blackfoot and
make study of conditions and local
tiles in the town, and when he under
stands the situation and the tax mat
ters he may be in the market for
home.
