of education has asked for a million
and a half dollars to maintain and do
such building and make such improve
ments as it deems necessary for the
university, the two normals, the tech
meal institute and the industrial train
ing school. 1t is said here it is very
doubtful II such a large amount will
| be appropriated. but the legislature
will cut the budgets during the next
session, just as it did in the last and
at other sessions, while the governor
will reserve the right to add his veto
to such items as he feels the institu-
lions can do without
It is pointed out here as signifl-
cant fact, and an interesting one as
we'll, that during the last campaign
there were no pronounced pledges in
behalf of economy or tax reduction as
there was two years ago, so that MEM
bers of the legislature and state Off
Gals may feel they can be little
more liberal at the next session than
they We're at the last one The inn
provements asked for the state insti-
tutions may therefore meet with more
encouragement in the line of appro-
priations than had been hoped.
CARE FOR FEEBLE MINDED.
The state educational charitable
and reformatory institutions are not
the only ones, however, which will

Benefit FOR THE
RED CROSS Given
German American Society
Holds Social and Enter
tainment-Sentiment for
Peace Evident.

The German American society held
social last evening in the old Elks'
hall at which literary and musical
program furnished the entertainment
and the proceeds from which are placed
in the Red Cross fund. The German
Maennerchor sang several songs and a
duet was given by the Misses Gram
kow, the selection being from III Trov-
atore." Mrs. NJ. Heuschkel. whose
readings of poetry have been much ap-
preciated in Boise for number of
years, contributed several numbers.
The mission of the society was voiced
by Gustaye Kroeger in his address in
the words:
Great objections seem to be made
to the existence of German societies in
this country. Certainly no man can
object to their existence for social pur-
poses and when society is formed for
the purpose of alternating the suffer-
ings of human beings 1t is entitled to-
hearty support.
AMERICA THEIR HOME.
THE United States is our home. the
birthplace of our children, the place
where all our interests lie, while the
country where our cradle stood is only
a more or less dim recollection, the OBJ
ject of loving remembrance"
| Speaking further of neutrality, he
said: I'VE believe that 1t was neither
fair play nor to the permanent interest
of our nation, that we should furnish d
large part of the ammunition and other
war material to the allies. We pro-
tested against the expectation of am +
munition so vigorously that the ammu :
milton dealers became afraid that their
profits were in danger. They inaugu-
rated campaign against the German
Americans by accusing them of dis
loyalty"
SENTIMENT FOR PEACE.
Peace was one of the strong senti-
ments OF the evening and Rev. e. q.
Albert, pastor OF the German Luth-
eran church, stated that the church
had received instruction from its ma
tional officials to pray for peace, and
to bend their efforts - that end.
One Of the entertaining guests OF the
evening was H. H. A. Brandt, who Is
an artist with studios in Dresden. b,lt
who has recently come to this nation.
Mr.. Brandt told of the present condl-
tons in Germany. and stated that ar
ticles manufa ctured in Germany sold
there for less money than similar ar
ticles could be purchased in the United
States The principal shortage in Ger
many he said. was of fats and oils for
food. and the substitutes which were
used for these were at times amusing

The Habit of Taking Cold.

With many people taking cold is n
habit, but fortunately one that is easily
broken. Take a cold sponge bath every
morning when you first get out of bed
not ice cold. but a temperature of
about 80 degrees F. Also sleep with
your window up. Do this and you will
seldom take cold. When you do take
cold take Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy and get rid of it as quickly as pos
sible. Obtainable everywhere.

FOR SHORT SESSION.
The budget for various state depart
ments. commissions, ETC., which is now
rapidly nearing completion, will call
for close to 100000 in appropriations.
With but one or two exceptions the
various departments are calling for
more money for the next biennium
than they used during the last biennial
period. Most Of them will get the
amount they ask for. The Democrats
for the first time in many years will
have the satisfaction of making up
this budget when the next legislature
convenes. Heretofore it has been the
task of the Republican majority and
has never been found an easy one
The increased amount the budget Will
show is going to give the legislative
leaders some little cause for worry as
to where to do the cutting.
Leaders within the Democratic party
assert that the entire legislative pro-
gram should offer no serious difficult
ties to follow out. They are for the
short session-40 days as the maxi
mum-for quick organization and rap
idity in dispatch of the business To
come before both houses. They do not
look forward to particularly excit-
ing session. as there are few para
mount issues aside from the regular
routine of Legislature, to be taken
up. County division, congressional
division, amendment of the election
laws, revision of the land and loan
laws. consolidation of state depart
ments. appropriations for bridges
roads, fairs, etc, and passage of the
appropriation bill are in the main the
| salient issues to occupy legislative
time

TO HELP HIGHWAYS.

The state highway commission Is
making a strong plea for a $500, 900
appropriation for good roads and
there Is apparent a disposition to
comply with the commissions recon-
mendations for the legislature wants
to take advantage of the post road,
federal service and other highway ap-
preparations of the federal government.
This is recognized as vast amount
of money for road expenditure, but 1t
Is claimed if carefully spent so that
every dollar counts more real good will
be done for the state in developing
its resources with better highways
than through any other medium.
1t is the desire of the commission
to appropriate the s15o0,O0o it expects
from the Legislature for construction
work on designated highways as fol-
lows: Idaho Pacific highway, s265, 122;
Yellowstone Park, s37,43s; Sawtooth,
s2a5,592; Idaho Montana, s125,000:
Utah s2ss77; north and south,
1858, 900; Lewis and Clark 100000;
North Pacific, 100000: Panhandle,
s165,O00. Since its organization the
commission has disbursed 1000 900
on highways in this state. There will
be available post road funds amount
ing to 100000 during a period of five
years ending June 30, 1921, and an
additional $1,oS0,00o federal funds for
| 10 years.
