 One of the things that distin- guishes London from most big American cities is the gayness of the paint which decorates the exterior woodwork of the houses.
 It Is no unusual thing to sec green doors, rod doors and yellow doors. But recently new fad has made it. self manifest.
 Many people have taken to paint Ing their entire houses blue-front. doors. garden railings and all.
 Perhaps tho Londoner favors col- ors that are gay because the sun light s such rare thing and he wants to do as much as possible to offset tho gray of the sky, the drab of the fog and the blur of the rain

RISING POUND ADDS
 TOCOsT OF LIVING
Americans in London Affected by
 Jump in Sterling
By MILTON BRoNNER NEA Service Writer

London. Jan. 9.--Can ones living expenses remain at the same figure and yet be higher than they were? It sounds paradoxical and impos- sible. but 1t is neither. ss a very large portion of the American col- ony in London can attest. .. Tn the British metropolis there live quite a large number of men and women who are representatives, of American business firms and they are paid their salaries in American dollars.
 But their expenses are In English pounds sterling. The result is that when the pound is rising, although their rent or what not remains the same--in English money---it in- creases in American money. For instance, not so many moons ago the pound cost four dollars. So that if man and wife paid 15 pounds board and lodging, this meant so dollars. But with the pound at $4.70. as 1t was the other day, that same board In American dollars jumped to $7O.50, or an in- crease of s10.50.
 And, of course. everything is in proportion. Which is why resident Americans cheer when the pound goes down and cuss when it goes up. These Bolshes are coming on They are not so opposed to titles as they used to beat least, in foreign capitals.
 Not long ago a big reception was given at the Soviet embassy in Ser. lin. Evening clothes or uniforms were expected of all male guests. Sc that the gorgeous lackeys at the door were very much surprised when little man in simple street clothe. appeared.
 What do you want here?" the, asked haughtily.
 T am expected. am invited. he said. as he showed his card. Tht door was opened, one of the lackeyl crying in a loud voice:
 
 His Excellency. Monsiur Presi dent of the Reichstag von Loebe."
 It was the first time little Loeb' ever knew he had ''von".
 The average Briton who know anything about America never fail 10 think that some American tow names like Oshkosh and Tuba Dan are the funniest things that eve happened.
 However, they forget the quee town names in their own tight littl island.
 For instance, there is a Nasty fl Hereforshire and a Mucking in Es sex. Norfolk boasts of Great Snor ing and Suffolk comes across wit, Cold Dunghills.
 In Lincolnshire one finds Swines head Cowbit, and Dripping Gore i Kent. Yorkshire also has a mate for Tuba Dam.} .....-
 It has Dam Flask. Then there ar other old ones like Helious Bump

Auto Horns Too Much
 For Monkeys of Bang

Munich, Jan. 9.--The whirl of modern life. exemplified by automoA bile horns, radio, telephones and electric lights. is getting too much for the Trappist monks of Bang. Despairing of seclusion in their pres ent monastery near Bamberg, they will soon withdraw to remote part of the Bavarian mountains.
 Several sites are under considera- ton, one of them mountain top where once stood, a baronial castle. Here it is felt that the penitential and silent days of the Trappist brothers could be passed without disturbance.

CLUB APPOINTS
Committees
Important Committees Ap-
pointed BY Civic Body At
Last Friday Evenings
Meet

A meeting of the Mountain Home
Commercial Club was held last Fri
day evening. The matter of secur-
ing water for the Mountain Home
Sunnyside tract from the American
Falls reservoir was taken up and dis
cussed quite thoroughly. 1t was de-
cided by those present that a COM
mittee should be appointed to take
this matter up with the Boise Cham
Der of Commerce and endeavor to Sc
cure their cooperation in further
ing this project. According to ad-
vices presented at the meeting it is
now the intention of the Reclama-
ton Department to convert the sur
plus water from American Falls to
the Owyhee Project and those fam
iliar with the conditions in both
projects state that the water can be
brought to Mountain Home much
cheaper than it can be taken to the
Bruneau project. According to the
sentiment expressed at the meeting
the local organization felt that the
civic bodies should cooperate in this
matter as it would only increase
Boise's trade territory and ultimate
ly would prove as beenfcial to that
city as to Mountain Home should it
be possible to secure the water. With
the application of water on the To-
cal project it would equal none in
the state insofar as the fertility and
productivity of the soil are con-
cerned A committee consisting of
Geo. L. WhortOn J. w. Morton and
Stanton Park were appointed to take
this matter up with the Boise Cham
Der of Commerce and ascertain what
could be done along the line pro-
posed.
The matter of a subway under the
Oregon Short Line Railroad tracks
was taken up for discussion. Inas-
much as this is a very important
item at this time and the local or
ganization felt that it was more Of
matter to be take nup by the school
board, a committee consisting of
Jack Goul, Pete Gandiago and H. J..
Dick was appointed with the instruc-
tions to cooperate with the school
board in this matter.

OLD RAILROADER
STILL in SERVICE
G.. w. Oliver, Who For Forty
Years Has Been Railroad
ing Now Run On
Number Five

Glenns Ferry, Idaho, Nov. 20
Especial to the Republican, )-G. w.
oliver, the senior engineer on the
Idaho Division completed his fortieth
year of service with the Oregon Short
Lin on November the sixteenth. Mr..
oliver was born in Kalamazoo, Mich
igan, October 8, 1865, and came to
Idaho in March of 1884 via Oregon
on account of the Short Line being
showed in at the Switch Back at
Harris Fork where Hodges Tunnel
is now located; worked in a store
and was assistant postmaster at
Shoshone until June 1884; was
transferred to Caldwell continuing
the same line of work; later was
cent by his employers to Ontario to
open the first store in that place.
He commenced his service with the
Oregon Short Line in 1885 as an
engine wiper This job lasted but a
few days when he was called to Sho-
shone and given desk job in the
Office of Master Mechanic Frank
Reardins. In June OF the same year
the Oregon Short Line and the Utah
Northern Division consolidated un-
der one master mechanic J. S. Hickey
who took charge at Shoshone, bring
ing his Office force with him from
Eagle Rock, now Idaho Falls, max
ing it necessary for Mr.. Oliver to re-
turn to the shops. He alternated be-
tween firing a switch engine in Sho-
shone and Pocatello yards and doing
Office work until August 1889, when
he was given a switch engine to
run in the Pocatello yards. How
ever it was not until December, 1889,
that he received any rights, when he
made his first trip on the road In
the fall of 1895 the s. P. Company
rented some engines from the Short
Line and asked for crews to go with
them. Oliver with several Others
went to the s. P. and ran between
ogden and Carlin, Nevada, this be-
ing their first experience with "chain
gang" engines, each engineer hay-
ing had his regular engine up to
this time. He returned to the Short
Line and pulled freight until 1900
when he was assigned to passenger
run when the fast mail, now No s,
was put on in November 1909, he
took that run and held 1t contin-
uously since that time. He has the
unusual record of never having been
in serious wreck or injured in any
manner. Mr.. Oliver has held
number OF different offices in the B.
Of l.. E. and now has the honor OF
being president OF the Council OF
the City of Pocatello.

TOOLS ARE LOST
IN MUNICIPAL WELL
Hectic Career of Local Drill
ing Operations Nearing
Close Drill Now At
Bottom Of Hole

Trouble seems to have been the
byword OF Driller O'Connor in his
drilling operations at the local well.
Ever since the hole was started the
loss Of tools and buckling pipes have
hampered progress and the latest
bug-a-boo is the loss of the drill,
which occurred last week.
The Village Dads. apparently losing
patience, have informed the driller
that they viii not pay for the fishing
operations Mr.. O'Connor is busy at
the present time trying to recover
the drill This latest mishap was
occasioned, we are informed by the
fact that for the past several weeks
Il has been impossible to drive the
casing to the bottom Of the hole and
the wash from the side caught the
drill The hole now stands at the
1925 foot level and public opinion
seems to be to the effect that all are
glad the hole is not that wide or
perhaps the engine and all OF the
drilling apparatus would be at the
bottom of it.
