LOCAL NOTES OF
INTEREST
Several hunderd people gathered at
the Boise Commercial club Wednes
day evening to listen to conversations
between Boise citizens and the Idaho
delegation at the San Francisco fair.
Mayor Robinson held the transmitter
at this end, which he gave at different
times to others who desired to con
verse. Among those speaking from
the San Francisco end and whose
voices were plainly heard were Gov
Atexander, former Governor
ernor
Hawley, Judge Flenner, Joel Priest
and Secretary of State Barker. There
were 100 receiving instruments at
tached to stands in front of the seats
and that many people could hear all
that was said. Every individual in the
hall held a recevier at some time dur
ing the evening's entertainment and it
was a genuine surprise to all to hear
the voices so distinctly over the long
distance. A score or more of. Boise
people participated in the conversa
tion, among them being the three year
old daughter of Secretary Barker who
talked to her parents in childish glee.
Through the activities of Joseph
Sullivan work on the tabernacle for
the holding of D». Bulgin's evange
listic services were stopped by the
city council as a violation of the city
ordinance against the construction of
frame buildings within the fire limits.
A new ordinance was immediately
passed to permit the work to proceed
which would become effective Octo
ber 4th; and on this ordinance a pe
tition is being circulated demanding
the referendum vote as provided by
the Black law jinder which the city is
operating. If enough signatures are
obtained, something like 800 the prop
osition will have to go to a vote at
the next general election.
N. C. Larsen, a resident of Idaho
for 35 years, having lived at Bellevue
and Silver City before coming to
Boise some seven years ago died sud
denly of heart disease Tuesday night
upon returning to his apartments Jn
the California rooming house from a
moving picture show. He leaves a
large estate.
The Boise Municipal band gave its
first concert at the steps of the State
house Sunday afternoon and two or
three thousand peoole turned out
to enjoy the music. The band is mak
ing great progress and is already rec
ognized as a great addition to the
amusement field of Boise. It is a
union organization.

T ANDING as we do in the most
solemn hour of the world'*
v history, it is well to ask. the
question of the text, "Watchman,
what of the night?" We find, first,
that the great majority
wars have been local, B
THE PRESENT WAR IS WORLD
WIDE, INVOLVING ALMOST
ALL CLASSES AND CONDI
TIONS.
Second, the world is in ruins
Churches in France, England and
Germany are pouring out their
pastors and communicants by tens
of thousands. It will be genera
tions before they can be replaced.
FINALLY THE WORLD IS NOT
WITHOUT HOPE, EVERY GREAT
ADVANCE IN THE WORLD'S HIS
TORY HAS BEEN PRECEDED BY
SOME CONVUL8ION, AND, JUDG
ING THE FUTURE BY TODAY, WE
ARE 8URE THAT GOD HAS SOME
