delight now in recounting the story of
his first meeting with Mrs. Elinor
Glyn, whose one-time startling "Three

by the editor as one whose say would
be interesting to his readers. The
Lady Elinor received Mr.. Mayors first
question with sigh, gazing at the
orange draperies of the hotel rooms

Mr.. Mayer tried another question. but
Lady Elinor was as in a trance.

Word has been received to the
effect that the Oregon Short Line

from their park property on Alturas

reached between the railroad officials

them.
With the completion of this work

The residents Of the city should
appreciate the work of the council
and the Railroad in this enterprise
and give them every assistance in
these beauty spots.

INSURANCE RATES
IN MOUNTAIN HOME

A recent investigation into insur-
anee rates that apply in Mountain
Home is convincing of the fact that
there now exists many discrimina-
tory rates, where some buildings and
business houses are taxed far in ex-
cess of Others where the fire hazard
is even greater. Owing to the fact
that Mountain Home has an excel
lent fire department and the losses
by fire are very few it seems that
insurance companies should ask for
a resuryey of the town with the idea
of granting reduction. This is a
move that is worthy of the consider
alton of the local Chamber of Com
merce and one that affects practical
ly every business institution in the
city.

cry For Purpose Of
Improving The
Streets

The forepart of the past week al
agreement was entered into by the
Village Council for the purchase OF
Weir Power Grader, which will
be used for the leveling and repair
Of the streets of the city. The new
equipment can be handled by one
man and a much better service may
be expected.
1t is anticipated that the machin-
cry will pay for itself in the course
of three years by eliminating much
of the labor costs incidental to the
keeping up of the streets without the
aid of the proper machinery. The
streets of the city have been con-
stant drain upon the treasury and
it is believed that this will have
been eliminated now and that one
man can keep them in an excellent

SCHOOL SITE
IS SELECTED
School Board Selects Trian
gular Site For Location
Of New High School
Building

A meeting of the board of trus-
tees of the Mountain Home Inde-
pendent School District No. 6, held
a meeting last Tuesday evening and
at that time decided to choose the
triangular site adjoining the present
building site as the location for the
new high school, 1t was decided
that price of $3.50 and the delin-
quent taxes be paid for this proper
ty and that the owners provide an
abstract of title.
Some little time has been con-
sumed during the past two weeks in
making this selection as members of
the board were of the opinion that
the location of the building should
be given very careful consideration
and that the property be acquired as
cheaply as possible.
Now that all difficulty has been
removed in making their selection
it is quite likely that actual con-
struction work will be gotten under
way in the very near future so that
will be ready for occupancy
for the coming school year.

JUNIOR SENIOR
IRISH PARTY

At the schoolhouse last Saturday
evening the Seniors entertained the
Juniors and High School Faculty at
a Saint Patrick's dance. The first
ten dances were intermingled with
solos by Bonnie Goddard and Aida
Sessions and an Irish reading by
Richard Groves. The fifth dance
was feature dance in which part
ners were chosen by matching paper
caps. At ten-thirty, refreshments
were served at nine tiny tables with
streamers from the chandelier. In
the center of the room, a large table
was set for faculty members. Af-
ter the two course supper was served
by two Freshman girls dressed in
green aprons and caps, the students
adjourned to the first floor, where
dancing was again resumed. At
eleven thirty the guests departed for
home.

HERDS INCREASE

Seven Hundred Cows In

Sum

Grand View March II Especial to
the Republican,
The number of cows in the valley
has passed the seven hundred mark
a creditable increase from the 223
two years ago now. New cows are
being brought in constantly and we
anticipate 1000 within the year. The
good thing about it is that all the
larger owners are getting in better
shape financially with every pay
check. Hay that will sell for only
$500, if fed to cows brings in about
SIS through the milk checks, per-
haps little more according TO the
stories of the COW owners. It is also
to be noted that the tendency is to
elimination of scrubs. Holsteins and
Jerseys and an occasional Guernsey
or grades of these strains are more
and more noticeable every month. The
sires that are being brought in are
largely registered stock. We are not
quite ready to challenge the Boise
valley for the dairy supremacy in
Idaho, but give us a little more time
and then.
call for the preliminary meet
ing OF the Executive Committee OF
the Grand View Fair Association is

Joe Bennett has traded his car

WOOL BUYERS
ACTIVE HERE

Mountain Home sheepmen were
interviewed the forepart of the past
week by wool buyers who are an
xious to contract the clips before
shearing. Several clips are reported
to have been sold at a figure rang
ing around thirty-three cents. The
prices this year, from all Indications,
will range around from thirty to
thirty-fve cents per pound. While
this is considerably under the price
received last year the sheepmen have
not had the expensive winter of
year ago and this will no doubt aid
them in over coming the reduction.

COMMERCIAL CLUB
NEEDS SUPPORT
Lack of Interest In Local
Civic Organization A
Matter Of Con-
Germ

Last Monday evening a meeting
of the Mountain Home Commercial
Club was scheduled for an election
of officers and there were but six
members OF the organization present.
Owing to this fact it is taken that
The people of the community have
lost interest in the affairs of the or
ganization for some reason or an
other and the future of this civic
body is now threatened. A city of
the size of Mountain Home can
surely support a liye-wire organiza-
ton for the promotion of civic mat
ters if our neighboring town of
Grand View can and the zero hour
has struck for the citizenry of the
community to wake up and lend
their support.
A commercial club is almost a
necessity for town of our size as
SO many matters of Importance are
coming up almost daily that require
its attention. Right at the present
time a matter of vital Importance to
Mountain Home is the establishment
of a new road through Bruneau and
on to Nevada points, thus diyerting
the traffic from the Lincoln Highway
up through this country and max
ing this city junction point with
the Old Oregon Trail. Another mat
ter of extreme Importance is the
establishing of more friendly trade
relationships with the residents of
Bruneau and Grand View with the
view of bringing more of that trade
to this city, instead of sitting idly
by and permitting it to go into
Boise. Through the medium of a
commercial club the citizens of a
community may gather together
and discuss their problems and work
out the solutions and make recon-
mendations to Village Councils,
County Commissioners and State Of
ficials for their correction. Surely
the people of Mountain Home do
not desire this organization to die.
In order to present the matter to
the people more clearly and allow
them to give an expression of their
views on the matter a coupon is be-
ing printed on this page and the
citizens of the community are re-
quested to fill it out and either mail
or hand it to A. F. Anderson, secre-
tary of the Mountain Home CONNER
cial Club. No coupon received un-
signed will be given consideration.
Do your duty by your community
and give the commercial club an idea
of your desires.

RESERVOIRS ARE
FILLING SLOWLY
Snow Melts Slowly and Res
ervoirs Are Slow To Fill
Two Acre Feet
Anticipated

According to officials of the Noun
tain Home Irrigation District the
reservoirs Of the system are filling
very slowly owing to the weather
condition which is holding back the
run off. It is hoped that we will
have a couple Of weeks of real warm
weather so that the snow will melt
rapidly and the water go into the
reservoirs instead of soaking into
the ground.
The Long Tom reservoir will un-
doubtedly be quite short this year,
owing to a shortage Of snow on the
water shed. 1t is stated that there
are now only about seven hundred
and fifty acre feet there at the pres
ent time
The Camas Reservoir now has
storage Of about five thousand acre
feet and a good head OF water going
in all of the time
The Mountain Home Reservoir is
filing much more rapidly than was
This reservoir now
holds about twenty-five hundred acre
feet and about two thousand inches
Is going in daily from Canyon Greek.
It is admittedly true that the dis

this year and it Is figured that only
about two acre feet will be avail
able. but this is no reason for anti
