Take Up Matters of
Immediate I'm
portance


President H. L. Braden, of the
Mountain Home Chamber of Com
merce has called a meeting of that
organization for next Friday night
at which time several matters of inn
portance to our city win come up for
discussion and a large attendance OF
both members and non-members will
be welcomed
One Of the most important mat
ters that will come before the Com
mercial Club at this time will be the
proposition of securing the oregon
Short Line Railroads cooperation
in the building of a pedestrian sub
way under the tracks of the company
near the depot. For several years
the lives of the children, who make
the trip across the tracks several
times daily to and from school have
been endangered and it is with the
hope OF eliminating this hazard that
the local business men are taking
up the matter
In addition the matter of advertis-
ing folders will come up for discus
sion and some information will be
given on the proposed school bond
issue.

WILL DRILL FOR
OIL AT BRUNEAU
John O'Connor, Driller AT
Municipal Well Enters In
to Contract With Brun
eau People

The following taken from the
Bruneau Nugget will prove of inter
est to local residents:
"a lease was signed last Satur-
day by Fet Black which gives to the
company represented by John O'Con-
nor, now engaged on the Mountain
Home municipal well, the privilege
Of drilling on his place in Little
Valley for oil, gas, minerals, water,
ETC., work to be begun within a six
months period from the above date.
While q rental based upon Fet's acre
age holding is to be paid annually,
he is to share substantially in any
profits which may accrue from this
activity If nothing but plain wa
ter is developed, it looks as though
Fet is winner by a big margin, as
the uses to which water alone can be
applied are agricultural, and the les
see is not permitted to use water for
any such purpose.
"Mr O'Connor told the writer that
he had conviction based upon
something more substantial than a
"hunch," that mineral Of value ex-
listed in this zone, though he prompt
ly declaimed belief that this was
platinum, but did not declare that
this rare metal could not be found.

ROBBERS BREAK IN
LOCAL STORE
Elmore Pastime Robbed Of
Approximately 5000 Worth
Of Merchandise
And Cash

About four thirty last Monday
morning two robbers entered the FL
more Pastime by breaking through
the transom in the rear of the build
ing. Night officer Labbee was at
tracted to the scene of the crime
Just as they were leaving and after
ordering them to stop opened fire on
them and a fullisade of bullets wax
ened all nearby inhabitants. Meth
er the fleeing robbers nor the officer
were injured although one shell
passed through the clothing of Mr..
Labbee The robbers then got into
a car that was standing nearby and
beat a hasty retreat and in a few
moments the officers were on their
trail.
The car was tracked about town
for a short time and then the officers
thinking that they went to Bruneau
started in that direction. Deputy
Sheriff Fountain who had gone in
another direction soon discovered
their deserted car in the vicinity of
Reverse with one tire gone. A
search of the car revealed several
articles that were taken from the
store.
About noon stranger was
brought to the sheriff's office and af-
ter questioning he was locked up on
suspicion. His story was to the ef-
feet that he was walking up the rail-
road track and came upon the two
bandits and after asking them for
his breakfast he was driven away
with a gun and told not to return.
He described the men but little cred
ence is given his story by the officers.
Sheriff Stevens and Deputy Foun-
tain spent the greater part Of Mon
day and Tuesday trailing the men
but have not as yet been able to To-
cate them.
They took merchandise valued at
about two hundred dollars according
to Mr.. Aguirre, the proprietor of the
Elmore, among which was a radio,
guns, knives. cigars and tobacco.
The men were travelling in Hup-
mobile truck bearing a Nevada Ii
cense

Local Business Men and
Taxpayers Favor Passage
Of School Bond
Issue

Local business men generally are
in favor of the passage of the school
! bond issue at the election which will
be held Monday, November 23rd
There seems little opposition to the
bond issue as practically every one
In the community can understand the
necessity.
In order to further the passage of
the bonds the following endorsement
was circulated amongst local resi-
dents last Tuesday and was quite
freely signed:
THE undersigned business men
and tax payers are in favor OF the
school bonds. Because a new build
ing is required, to bring our stand
ard up to the equal of other schools
of the State in our class We can
reach this standard without any
great financial burden IL would al
so improve civic and business con-
ditions to Offset the additional tax.
We want to give the pupils an equal
chance with the rest of the state
We desire to make the schools fit the
child rather than the cid to ft the
school"

BOYS SENTENCED
LAST TUESDAY
Youths Who Robbed Ham
NETT Store Last June Are
Sentenced In the
District Court

Robert Lewis, Jack West and
John Lanzavecchia, the three lads
who held up the store of c. F. Waller
al Hammett last June, after pleading
guilty to the charge Of robbery came
up for sentence in the District Court
in this city last Monday Owing to
the age of the boys, Judge Brinek
has taken very great interest in
their case and maze somewhat of a
departure from regular procedure in
pronouncing sentence upon them.
Lewis and I.anzaTecchia are both
sixteen years Of age and letters from
their home town, Bay Point, Califor-
MIA, state that they had never been
in trouble before and their reputa-
tions were beyond reproach and for
this reason Judge Brinck was reluc-
tant to give them penitentiary SEN
tences, still the court desired that
they be placed in a position that the
prison sentence would hang over
them in case they did not comply
with the regulations of the state in
dustrial school. These two youths
were sentenced to five years in the
state prison and they were paroled to
Dr. w. D. Vincent, of the State In
dustrial School at st. Anthony.
West, who was twenty-one years
of age was sentenced to from five to
ten years in the state prison at Boise.

DISTRICT BOND
ELECTION CARRIES
Electors Of Local Irrigation
District Vot eBonds In
The Amount Of
$250,O0O

Last Monday was the date for the
election in the authorization Of
bonds in the amount of s25O,O0O fo1
the purchase of the irrigation sys-
TENS of the Mountain Home Coop
erative and The Elmore Farms. The
final count of votes gave ninety-two
in favor of the issue and 20 against
A small vote was cast in comparison
to the one hundred and forty water
users who were eligible electors,
A meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the Mountain Home Irriga-
tion District will be held next Mon
day at which time it is quite likely
that definite steps will be taken for
the completion OF the purchase con-
tract 1t is hoped by those in charge
that bonds to the amount of $780,,
600 will be all that it will be neces-
sary to expend as the purchase price
is $187,OOO and the remainder will
be used for necessary repairs to the
canals and reservoirs and other min
or expenses.
The water users of the Mountain
Home project have by their ballot
accepted the responsibility for a
heavy Indebtedness and in order to
meet their obligations in this mat
ter much greater cooperation will
have to be manifest. In addition the
farmers themselves will have to farm
the lands to the greatest degree with
crops that will bring them a fnan-
cial return commensurate with their
efforts. At the present time a large
part of the acreage is raising hay
and years like the present one little
can be realized. A greater produce
tion of hay turned into dairy cattle
would likely help to solve their prob
lens. In order to meet their main
tenanee charges, which will be abb
solutely necessary the farmer will
have to have money and it has been
proven fact that if he depends upon
hay raising alone he will fail.
The farmers have shown pro-
gressive spirit in this matter and it
is now up to local business men to
cooperate with them, buy their pro-
duce and in every way help to make
Mountain Home the town that it
should be.

AUTO THIEVES STEAL
CHEVROLET CAR
Blame Summers, OF Glenns
Ferry Looses New Car
On Last Monday
Evening

Glenns Ferry, Idaho, Nov. 1S
Especial to the Republican, Blame
Summers new Chevrolet was stolen
from where it was parked by the
side of the Glenns Ferry Mercantile
last Monday night. On returning
late in the evening Mr.. Summers dis
covered the car was missing. He no
tilted Sheriff Stevens and the local
police but no trace OF the car could
be located. Sheriff Stevens who was
in town looking for two men who
broke into a store at Mountain Home
and took goods to the amunt OF $500.
Mr.. Stevens is convinced that the
parties who took the car are the
same ones who committed the bur-
glary at Mountain Home. The car
was insured.
The Chevrolet car belonging to
John Latty, Jr., has not as yet been
found. It seems as though it is un-
safe to park a car any where in tho
streets at the present time as the
country seems to be infested with
car thieves who not only operate
here but elsewhere.

According to recent press dis
patches it now appears certain that

struction of the American Falls dam

building of the capacity dam before

clamation officials and Congressman
Champion decided that additional
legislation is not necessary to au-
thorize the construction of the larger
dam.
Congressman Champion, member
of the appropriations committee, told
Addison T. Smith. Idaho congress
man, that he favored the construc-
tion Of the capacity dam and will
present the matter of the additional
appropriation to the committee

The plan whereby the additional
amount, approximately 100000,

worked out when Congressman
Champion. Dr. Elwood Mead, COM
missioner of reclamation, and Gener-
al Counsel Dent Of the reclamation
service met for a discussion Of the
program to be carried out for the

ASK DAD
SEE IF HE KNOWS

Dad and Mother are con-
stantly telling you that they
want you to get the best edu-
cation possible and when they
are giving you this excellent
advice ask them few OF the
following questions.
Inasmuch as an education is
desirable, ask dad if he does
not want you to get all out OF
high school possible.
He will tell you yes, and
then ask him how you can do
that in Mountain Home, when
the lack of space prevents the
teaching of such important
subjects as manual training
and home economies.
Ask him if he does not want
you to have the same chance
that the students have in near
bv towns. When he tells you
yes ask him what he is going to
do when asked to give his en-
dorsement to bond issue for
100000 for the erection of a
new high school building.
Don't confine all Of your
questions to dad, mother is a
voter also and she will help to
make a new building possible
for you.

ASK DAD
SEE IF HE KNOWS

Father and mother are al
ways thinking of your welfare
there isn't a thing within
reason they wouldn't do for
you.
But they may unknowingly
have been risking your life
every day.
When you are at dinner to-
night with dad, ask him this
question:
dad, is our school fresafe?"
Perhaps he won't be able 20
answer-he may not know.
Ask dad if he knows that
somewhere in the country
schoolhouse burns every day.
Ask him if he knows that one
third of all the schoolhouses in
the country are nothing better
than fretraps - maybe your
school is one of them.
OF course dad knows that
buildings can be built that will
not burn. They are being built
everywhere, every day.
If your school is firesafe, you
are lucky. If it isn't, ask dad
what he is going to do about
it. You have a right to know.

RECONSIDERATION CHART


A boy born On Sunday will have
long, golden eurls. His parents will
wish him to study for the ministry,
but he will much prefer to be re-
membered as the man who played
quarterback on the varsity eleven the
year it never lost q game.
A boy born on Monday Is likely
to be his srandmothers favcrite, al
though he will not be thought too
much Of by the neighbors who know
him best.
A boy born on Tuesday will prob
ably be right-hsnded and kind to his
parents just before Christmas; until
old enough to be Of some use, he will
insist upon getting up at distressing
~ early hour. But after he is able
to do chores he will not find It hard
to remain In bed.
A boy born on Wednesday will be
an intellectual wonder, but he will be
able to conceal the fact from the
members Of the family until he grows
up, when he will begin to doubt 1t
himself.
A boy born on Thursday stands
q good chance of becoming the Presi-
dent Of the United States, but early
trimming may save him from this
dangerous tendency. He is likely to
be named Reginald or Percival, but
his boy friends will call him squash"
or Buster" or "Pie Face" for short.
A boy born on Friday will never
have to work fro his living-if he
has bis way about 1t. He viii be
kind to his littl. sister only when
she has a nickel to spend.
A boy born on Saturday will much
prefer to 90 to the circus than TO
NOW the yard onhot afternoons. He
will resemble his father in many
ways, but his mother will do all she
can to make a man Of him.

Norris Defends Theory That Married Women Should Work

building a laboratory In which to
complete her experiments in serum
development. And still q third, q
woman I know well, sends in a let
ter refuting some too careless state
ments about the enforcement, or non
enforcement, Of prohibition, and proves
~ this letter, that she hne been doin.
a mans work In this cause for many
years.
There must be work for every wom-
an, Of CONSERVATIVES she can do,
and wants to do, from ironing collars
to taking her seat In the Senate. But
marriage first that's the important
thing, the developing thing, the thins
that no woman ought to miss.
RIGHTS TO CHILDREN.
Every woman has a right to her
husband and her baby just as she did
to her education, and II living ex-
penses are really going to continue to
be beyond the reach OF youngsters,
then It seems to me 1t Is distinctly up
to us older persons to finance the mat-
ter somehow. We finance their den
tistry and their music lessons and
their trips to Europe and their nAtH-
cars and fur coats now. All we need
do is cut down on those things, and
encourage them to pair off a little
earlier, and give us something REAL
something Of flesh and blood--to
pay forl
And some day, let US hope, all the
women in the factories and offices,
the schools and hospitals, the shops
and restaurants and beauty parlors,
will be women who we're young wives,
young mothers, and who want to help
now-to give as well as take-to serve
the world, which sheltered them
through their growing and learning
times BY taking care Of the new crop.
