BLACKFOOT SCHOOLS
IN HIGH STANDING

According to a letter sent out re-
Gently by the the secretary of the
Northwest Association of Secondary
and High Schools, the Blackfoot
high school ranks among the best
high schools in the northwest and is
placed on the approved list for 1924
'25. Blackfoot was approved with
out any conditions, they having
found our school in splendid condi-
tion and it's organization and type of
work being done of very high stand
ard. Blackfoot is one of the -four
high schools east of Gooding to be
placed on this list, PocatellO, Idaho
Falls and American Falls being the
other three. This speaks well for
the work being done in our high
school and the young people who are
graduating this year should be proud
to be able to complete the work as
required in the Blackfoot high school
and to be able to graduate form
high school of such rank.

Will Complete
the Bills Building

]. H. Andersen is back from a
business trip to Salt Lake, where he
completed arrangements for financ-
ing the completion of the Bills build
ing at Blackfoot. 1t is estimated
that $4,000 will finish it, and the
Western Building & Loan association
will advance funds up to that
amount.
Mr.. Andersen says that before
having the work start he will take
some time to secure tenants for as
much of the building as he can. and
the wishes of the tenants will be
taken into consideration in finishing
the building, to have 1t suit them as
to space and arrangements as far as
is practical. In any event and re-
gardless of the number of tenants
secured, the work will be finished
this season.
The Bills building was designed
and nearly completed by the late
Gordon Bills, who lost his life in an
auto accident at the fairgrounds in
September, 1920. The slump in bust
ness, together with Mr.. Bills death,
made it impossible to go on with
the enterprise as planned, and it
went thru bankruptcy proceedings
with considerable loss to creditors,
who held no security.

Chapter Red Cross

A special meeting of the Red Gross
was called by the president, Mrs. B.
H. Hudson, for the purpose of max
ign plans for the year.
Mrs. ]. H. Early, chairman of the
home service committee, reported
having spent -225 for nurse in a
home needing help, and $7.15 for a
family, both husband and wife be-
ing addicted to the use of narcotics,
this amount was spent in hotel bill
and board and returning family to
their home in Utah. Also that she
received $500 from the w. o, W..
lodge of Pocatello to be used for a
family in need, this amount was
spent in buying clothes for the Ave
children in the family.
1t was also decided to hold
monthly meeting of the Chapter on
the first Tuesday of each month at
8 d. m. These meetings are open to
the public and it is hoped that the

B.P. w. C. ORGANIZE
SWIMMING CLASS

The BlackfOot Business & Pro-
fessional Women's club, with the
assistance of the Pocatello club, have
organized a swimming class Tor
twenty-six Blackfoot women, who
will go to Pocatello every Thursday
evening during the summer to take
swimming lessons under the super
vision of the Red Cross instructor at
the Y. M. c. A. pool.
1t Is the wish of the Red Cross and
their instructor to turn out as many
good swimmers as passOble, as they
consider it a valuable part of their
work in connection with life saving.
Since the Blackfoot women have to
20 a long way, every effort will be
made to push them forward as rap
idly as possible and 1t Is hoped that
before long we will have some excel
lent lady swimmers in our midst.
It is fortunate that the BlackfoOt
women should have this opportunity
to learn under the direction of such
an able instructor, and one whose
time is SO valuable to the people Of
his own city.
This is only one Of the many &C.
already attained by
our local B. P. w. c. Since the
splendid May Day dance and the din
ner serve dto forty-five guests from
Idaho Falls and Pocatello as well as
the local members, we realize that
our club is exceptionally active and
do not intend to lose any time In
putting things across.

IDAHO EDITORS
SUMMER TRIP

The executive committee of the
Idaho Editorial association an
4 nounces a summer excursion by
automobiles for the editors, the mid
die of July, milling at Weiser on
the afternoon of July z for an even
ing's entertainment, the guests of
the Kiwanis club. The next morn
ing the caravan will drive up to
Payette lakes, where luncheon will
T be served and the party will be taken
for trip on the lakes as the guests
of the Mccall Commercial club. Then
they will make an afternoon drive
of a hundred miles to Grangeville,
Idaho, the whole days drive leading
over the famous north and south
highway. July and 10 will be spent
In convention and drives about the
country, after which the caravan will
travel in groups in any direction they
may desire, some of them returning
direct and others going to Lewiston
and Moscow and those from Eastern
Idaho probably returning home via
the famous LolO pass into Montana
and over the Bitterroot mountains to
Beaver Canyon and the Snake river
plains.
registration of cars for the trip
will be made thru Secretary Guy
Flenner of Boise, and registration
will include reports of seats avail |
able and persons desiring to go who !
have no cars. The secretary's office |
is to be clearing house for these
things. Newspaper people desiring
to take guests along, who are not
publishers are privileged to do so.
For fifteen or twenty years there
has been desire to get the publish
ers of the state to take the trip over
the North and South highway or
the route where it was proposed to
build it, and get them wakened up to
the grandeur of the scenery and the
amount of it's resources, and this
excursion is the first reali-
cation of that wish.
For long time efforts were made
to get a railroad built thru, but after
it part way 1t was delayed,
seemingly for an indefinite period,
and now a fine auto road Is COM
pleted and ready for tourist travel.
The inference is that II the news
paper people will ride over the route,
they will voluntarily tell the readers
what is there.
Governor Moore is reported to-
have said he would plan to accom-
Dany the caravan, and other state Of
icials have been invited and it is
likely some of them will go. The

WATER FAMINE FOR
IRRIGATION IS ON

Water in Snake river has been
very low for the past week. Streams
all over the west are low and there
is comparatively little snow in the
mountains to sustain them for the
spring and summer. The winter
having been unusually dry, the water
level in the ground has gone lower
than usual and must inevitably sink
lower, probably affecting the wells
so that they will have to be sunk
deeper.
The weather was rather cold and
windy until the middle of last week
and melting of SHOWS on the low
mountains had been retarded and
there was practically nothing on the
foothills to melt, SO that Snake river
was at low ebb. When the weather
turned warm and nearly everybody
demanded water for irrigation, all
the canals tapped the river for large
volume of water and nearly ex
hausted it in a couple of days. Power
plants along the stream suffered
and it is said that there
is no water at Shoshone Falls ex-
cepting spring water that comes into
the river bed along the course.
Canals in the Blackfoot and Idaho
Falls country have been having
trouble getting water, and those
whose headgates are in unfavorable
places for tapping deep in the river
bed have had but little water. The
return of warm weather with thaw-
ing of snow began increasing the
flow in the river at Blackfoot on Sun
day afternoon, and it has continued
raising few inches day at mar
row places and less than that where
it spreads out wide.
This condition has brought about
a crisis in irrigation and the govern
ment office at Idaho Falls called a
of canal representatives at
Twin Falls for Wednesday and
to go over the whole situa-
ion and see what steps could be taken
to get the greatest possible service.
In the meantime the stored water in
Jackson Lake is being held for use
later in the season, 1t being the view
that ample warning has been given

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr.. james ii. Allen, of Rochester,
\. Y, suffered for years with rheu-
matism. Many times this terrible
disease left him helpless and unable
to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the ac-
cumulated impurities, commonly
called uric acid deposits, were dis
solved in the joints and muscles
and expelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he con-
suited physicians, made expert
ments and finally compounded a
prescription that quickly and COM
pletely banished every sign and
symptom of rheumatism from his
system.
lie freely gave his discovery,
which he called Allenrhu, to others
who took it, with what might be
called marvellous success. After
years of urging he decided to let
sufferers everywhere know about
his discovery through the newspa-
pers. He has therefore instructed
druggists everywhere to dispense
Allenrhu with the understanding
that if the first pint bottle does not
show the way to complete recovery
he will gladly return your money
without comment. Loynd's Drug
Co. can supply you. Mail orders ac-
