o Along with other numerous instan-
ces TO the effect that commodity
prices are going downward comes the
announcement of the General Electric
company of ten percent reduction in
the price of incandescent lamps.
Officials of the company announce
that this latest reduction is the fifth
in twenty-seven months and the sec
ond since February of this year and
they report that it brings lamp prices
thirty-seven percent below 1914 fig
ures. Officials estimate that this re-
duction means a saving to the public
of $7,000,000 annually.

machinery for making lamps which
have increased the output per opera
tor and multiplied the capacity of the
factories, have been principally res
pOnsible, officials of the company state,

CORRECT LIST OF SOLDIERS
Every section of the state is repre-
sented to date in the response to the
rquest for corrections on the list of
Idaho soldiers who lost their lives
during the World war and Spanish
American war, sent out by the Ida
no Memorial association in coopera-
ton with the American legion.
1--WE are gratified by the evidence
of interest and loyalty shown by Ida
no citizens in their response to our
call for aid in correcting these lists"
said Paul Davis, director of the Ida
no War Memorial project. 1T is
imperative that the list be complete
and that every mans name be cor
rect, otherwise the association has
failed in its task of perpetuating the
names of Idaho's dead"
Mr.. Davis stated that further plans
for securing an absolutely correct list
for the "Hall of Memories in the
Idaho War Memorial would be dis
cussed during the American legion
convention in Pocatello early in Au-

TO THE CITIZENS OF THE
TOWN AND co. OF GUNNISON
GREETING:

The season of the year is again
upon us when all religiously inclined
are attending to the recollection of
and meditation upon the closing
events in the Earthly Life of Our
Saviour and the Founder of Our
Christian Civilization. 1t is a worthy
custom among us to change somewhat
ones usual social and business pro-
gram SO as to have more time and
strength to devote in recollection
upon the solemn message of the clos.
ing events of His Last Days.
In view of this we unite in urging
that all our citizens, and especially
those who are members of our re.
spective parishes, shall give them
selves in particular to an untram-
meled observation of Holy Week, be.
ginning with Palm Sunday, April 13
10 this end in addition to the repu-
lar Lords Day services we have in
cooperation arranged that at our re-
spective places of worship each after
noon of Holy Week at four O'Clock
there shall be held short service of
solemn recollection and careful con-
sideration of the meaning of His Last
Days. The youth and adults of our

Monday for Pueblo, where Mrs. Little
will visit for time. Mr.. Little says
he is getting along all right as a
bachelor, but is not favorable to a
prolonged siege of the same.
John Balm spent few days on the
home ranch last week, helping load
few cafs of baled hay He returned
to his home in Gunnison Friday
John has bought the old Hayden
ranch on East river and expects to
take possession about April 18th.
o. F. Werner has been busy the
past week renovating the interior of
his store. All the shelves have been
emptied and washed and shined up.
Show cases have been polished, and
the whole surface of walls and cell
ing scrubbed and calcimined white,
so that the store presents very neat
and attractive appearance. 1t was
some big job too, says Mr.. Werner,
but the result more than justifies the
effort and work. A new coat of paint
outside now, is all that this up-to-
date store needs to make it one of
the most attractive in the county.
