Saturday evening, February 12th, under the auspices of the local Post, Grand Army of the Republic, and Co. D, 2nd Regiment I. N. G. The subject of the address will be the Armies of the United States, both regular and volunteer, past, pres ent and future, certainly apropos in these times of "preparedness" discus sion. No admission will be charged, nor collection taken, and everybody is cordially invited. PAT-UP WEEK IN TWIN FALLS WILL BE GENERALLY OBSERVED The campaign for Pay-Up Week is on in earnest and it is generally believed that it will be observed more gen erally than at first anticipated.

BERGER » »**»**»»**«»»•*•*** H. C. Bricson, Correspondent. Living well beats dying rich. Life is as hard as we make it. The average man of today gets more out of fifty years of life than Methusa la did out of 969. Will there be enough water in the reservoir for a season's irrigation from the amount of snow that is above the reservoir at the present time? is a question asked by everyone who is interested in the Salmon river tract. It looks mighty slim .at the present time, "Let's grow!" is the motto of south ern Idaho, a motto good enough for the entire nation. Let's grow—bigger in purpose; braver, bettor, kinder— let's grow all through 1916. A. S. Hanson, of Buhl, was calling on his friends in Berger, Saturday and Sunday. W. J. Trueblood, one of the enter prising farmers on the north end of the Salmon river tract, was looking after business matters at the county metropolis Saturday. The railroad men of the Rogerson branch have abandoned hauling wa ter to Berger and Haggardt since the cold weather set in, and as a conse quence, some of our cisterns are get ting rather low. Quito a number of our settlers are making preparations to move to some other tract or back to their home state. A big percentage of settlers in this vicinity have already moved back to their former home in other states, owing to conditions existing on this tract. What is our honorable and worthy board of land commis sioners doing about it? Can the state of Idaho afford to lose these settlers? What is the business men and the com mercial club of Twin Palls doing for the settlers of the Salmon river tract in regard to the existing troubles on the Salmon? It seems the settlers who have come here with the intention of making homes on this tract and help build up the country and the state of Idaho, have to fight the unscrupulous and unjust corporation and bondhold ers who are trying to crush out the life of the settlers.. The Twin Falls Comemrcial club could render the »et tlers vauable assistance by either pe titioning or appearing before the state land board and lay our troubles before them as their influence might have weight and bearing on that honorable body, is the opinion of the writer. Do the business men of Twin Falls realize what it means to them in a business way to have their water proposition adjusted—justly and satisfactorily to the settlers. If this tract is cut down to the proper size for this amount of water, we have with which to ir rigate, the settlers on that new Sal mon river tract would be enabled to get a just reward for their labors, io create wealth out of the fertile soil of the remaining acreage, and Twin Palls would be bencfltted thereby as the business houses of Twin Falls would receive a portion of that newly created wealth. Mr. LeRoy was a Berger visitor from his home near Buhl one day last week. Messrs. Ellison Holloway, L. N. But cher and Roy Doramius have gone to Bowman, this state, to look up loca tions for future homes. Berger Literary society will mael Friday evening this week and an in teresting program will be given. On Friday evening, January 28, when the Literary will meet again, a very in teresting program will be in store for the people. The program consists of Aunt Amelia's Family Album, which promises to be one of the best and most interesting programs ever given by the society and a large attendance is expected. Will Sumner was transacting busi ness in Filer Wednesday. Miss Bertha Noel, county superin tendent of public instruction, visited Berger schools Monday. The work done by our schools was highly compli mented by the superintendent. We inadvertently omitted to mention in our last week's communication that David Abramson was rejoicing over the arrival of a baby girl at his home Mother and child are doing well. Tuesday being his birthday the members of the Berger Sabbath school decided to give their superintendent, J. M. Pierce a surprise. Everything was planned, prepared and in readi ness to proceed to the home of their victim on the evening of his birthday. Upon the approach of the jolly crowd Mr. Pierce came to the conclusion that our German friends across the wa-1 ter had taken advantage of our unpre -1 paredness and were making an inva sion and was about to take steps for defense when he discovered his mis take. Seeing a peaceful and national people and of course the doors were thrown open and gave up possession of his beautiful home. The evening was pleasantly spent at games, speeches, vocal and instrumental mu sic and last but not least a bounteous repast was served that the ladles had Layering Theatre Thursday, Friday and Saturday January 27-28-29th W.
