CHICKEN SPOILS
 TRAP FOR RIDERS
Kentuckian Bailed Tobacco Fired
 With Dynamite

GLASGOW, Ky, Aug. 23.-Bor. rowing from the experiences of their sons in the World war, several plant. CTS in the Echo section, which recent ly has been the scene of night rider depradations, placed mines in their tobacco fields, hoping thereby to dis courage night riding.
 The mines were made of dynamite, packed in large jars along with a liber- al supply of rocks, scrap iron an sim liar things. They were connected up to batteries and wired in such way that anyone coming in contact with the wire set off the internal machine. The mines were disconnected in the daytime and hooked up at night.
 They were designed by a World war veteran who had had experience along that line in France. But there were no chickens on the front lines, and that is where he made his mistake.
 A chicken flew against one, of the wires, so the story goes, setting off the improvised grenade. The explosion tore a large hole in the ground and de- stroyed considerable tobacco. Then the whole story leaked out.

i but Stenfoos is from the old Fiuufeh
 stock. He was born on a. farm in central Finland where the best of the primitive has survived beside modern progress. On the Stenroos farm. which consisted of few arabic acres
 and some forest land--hardly more than woodlot-the farmhouse was built of logs, though nicely sawed and
 lned inside with sawed lumber. Hia mother and sister had their spinning wheels, but they also had sewing mi. !. cnlnes. Neatness, regularity, honestv were his boyhood notices,
 He IS today just as simple as he was then. He Is proud of his race l;k1 all Films, but he does not consider its origin in Central Asia, though thsf was only 5000 years ago, nor ita -ra. iationship to the American Indian. h his store clothes Stenroos looks sonae- thing like an Indian in the sams clothes, except for his colorinr. b,it hs knows nothing of the stoicism of ths Indian which he also possesses. s7e
 MethOdica1 To A Dceree s
 This stoicism added to a methodieal. ness which would shame a Gerr1an. make up the running Stenroos. Racial. ly he is not quick enough for sprinter. There is not that nervous duickness in the Finn necessary to run 100 wards in 9 2-4'g, but there is nervous enerey to carry him in perfect form over mile after mile of road, SO he covers Che twenty-ftfth miles as easily as the first. It would be curious to know how far Stenroos could run without stops ping. Probably it would sudaenly oc- cur to him that the thirty-ninth ruiIe that he was tired and the would simply stop.
 Stenroos hardly z ever .seats meat, Soup with meat juices in it is about as near as he comes to a carnnvorous. diet. In that he is like most country raised Films. Oatmeal is their staple diet, as in Scotland. A good porter house steak would be too rich for Stem roos. He has developed his supple muscles and nerve power on gruei and clabber milk.

American Legion Endorses Idaho Memorial

The following resolution was passed by
the last annual convention of the Idaho De-
partment American Legion meeting at
Occur dAlene, Idaho:
Whereas, the State of Idaho contributed
over twenty-five thousand young men and
women to the cause of humanity In the Great
World war, and
Whereas, many of those who went have
died in the service of their country, and
Whereas, the sacrifices of those who gave
their lives constitute the greatest inspiration
to the youth of our country, and the memory
of them the most priceless heritage which
can be bequeathed to our coming genera
tions, and
Whereas many men and women in other
times of stress and danger have made sim
liar sacrifices, whose memory should also
be preserved, and
Whereas the University of Idaho is the
seat of learning of the State of Idaho, and
the place where the oncoming generations
of our youth will gather in increasing num-
bers as long as our state exists, and
Whereas, the ex-servfce men and women
of Idaho believe that it Is fitting and proper
that suitable memorial be erected to those
who have made the great sacrifice in times
past, to commemorate the love and venera-
ton In which they are held by the citizens
of Idaho, and
Whereas, it is best that such memorial be
erected where its constant impress may be
upon the youth of our state,
, Now, therefore be 1t Resolved, by the Fifth
Department Convention of the American Lee
gion. Department of Idaho, that we do urge
the erection of suitable memorial building
in commemoration Of our dead at the Uni
versity of Idaho that the Department of Ida
no lend its every aid to the completion of
this project in all manners necessary, and
that the Commander appoint a permanent
committee from the members of the depart
ment to take active charge of this endeavor
and cooperate with all other organizations
therein, and
Be 1t further Resolved, that when CON-.
pleted said memorial shall be dedicated to
the purposes set forth in the preamble here
Of, that 1t be made a repository of the his
