At Times, She Says
TO MOVE AROUND SHE HAD TO
PUSH A CHAIR BEFORE
HER.

Though she had suffered with
rheumatism so badly she could not
walk at times during three or four
years, and had been troubled a
great deal with a number of other
ailments, Mrs. J. T. Durham, of
221O S. Main St., Anderson, de-
clares that "Tanlac relieved my
rheumatism and other troubles and
got me in good shape in three weeks
after a lot of other medicines had
failed to help me-"
"I suffered with rheumatism so
badly I could not walk at times" "
continued Mrs. Durham, "and for
several hours every morning when
the rheumatism was particularly
bad I would have to sit in a chair
after being helped from my bed,
and then my muscles would get so
I could move around by pushing a
chair before me. I generally was
able to get around enough to get
dinner, though l could never get
breakfast.

THE HoE-MAN's THANKSGIVING

l count up in this song of cheer
The blessings of busy year:
"A roof so low I lose no strain,
No ripple or the friendly rain;
A chimney where all winter long
The logs give back the wild birds
song. ..' .
A field, neighborly old ground,
Which year by year, without sound,
Lifts bread to me and roses sweet
From out the dark below my feet.
The wind that cools my hidden spring
And sets my corn field whispering; I
And shades across, to lightly blow
Green ripples down the apple row.
That leafy hollow that was stirred
A hundred mornings by a bird
That sang by daybreak on brier,
Setting the gray of dawn afre.
The lone star and the shadowed BUSH
That come at evening, when the|
thrush
Ravels the day so worn and long,
Into the silver of a song.
The tender sorrow, too, that came
To leave me nevermore the same;
The love and memories, and the|
Light laughter of little child.
Thoughts of the Wonder that awaits
The sold beyond the Darkened Gates
That old, old Mystery that springs
Deathless, behind the veil of things.
This is my rosary of hours,
Inwoven of the SHOWS and flowers
The year that runs from young to old
A CLINT of green, a glow of gold.

HERE'S A CHANCE FOR JACK
TO GET INTO THE WAR GAME

LONDON.-If you can make the dots
on dominoes, put the hicks in penknife
blades or, above all, build organs, you
are qualified to enter the trifling bus
mess of building aeroplanes.
At least that seems to be the moral
of recent speech by L. A. Legros, late
president of the Automobile Engineers
institute.
"Aeroplane workers. he said, -'have
been recruited from every class and
trade. | have heard of one who used
to make the dots on dominoes and of
another who put the hicks in penknife
blades. In the erection of aeroplanes,
the organ builder stands head and
shoulders above everyone else. He is
followed by the pattern maker. but in
propeller work the man who comes
out best is the chairmaker

WASHINGTON-A baby eX-
nation conserve and increase its sup

Last year Frances death rate was
more than 20 of every 1000 persons, not
counting men killed by the war. Only
eight babies were born to every 1000
persons. At that rate, the civilian
population of France is falling 78S, 900
year.
Compared with this, in New York
state last year % babies were born to
every 1000 persons, while only IA of
every 1000 persons died.
The chief cause of this infant and
adult mortality, the Red Cross said,
is widespread tubercular infection
which is threatening the population of

The American experts were sent un-

Lucas of the University of California,
originator of the save Belgian
baby movement. They followed an
urgent cabled appeal from Major Gray

work among children" said Major
Murphy.

LOCAL BOARD UPHELD

yIRGINIO- PESTRIN IN THE ARMY
TO FIGHT FOR UNCLE
SAM

Virginia Pestrin, Italian, is now in
the service of the United States. He
was one of the men registered for mil
itary service in this county. He claim
ed exemption on the ground of being
an Italian. His claim was rejected by
the local board He took appeal and
was turned down by the district board
and was sent to American Lake.
Through a Seattle lawyer he had his
case taken before Adjutant General
Moody and that official ordered the
case re-opened by the local exemption
board. Again She local board rejected
the claim. The case went to the dis
trict board the second time and there
it was allowed Herman H. Taylor,
of the district board, took it upon him
self to "roast'' the local board without
mercy for passing Pestrin up to the
district board at all. Taylor's letter
was a hot number But the sequel
of it all is that the case was finally
taken up to the war department, the
court of last resort in such matters,
and that tribunal sustained the Latah
county exemption board and Pestrln
is now in line to do his bit.

FIVE LATAH COUNTY
MEN TURNED DOWN

AFTER REACHING TRAIN
ING CAMP

Five of the last contingent of 80
men sent to American Lake were re-
pected on physical grounds after their
final examination there. They are
Judson E. Case of Genesee, Harry
Bascom Bellomy and Carol Oscar
Johnson of Troy, Roy Elden Hake of
Potlatch and Herbert Bland Miller of
Kendrick.
This leaves 127 Latah county men at
Camp Lewis judging by the reports
thus far received by the local exemp-
ton board from Adjutant General
Moody. AS the county's quota was
129 this will mean the sending of two
additional men right soon, at least
that number.
Oscar Henry Johnson who register
ed at Potlatch and who was located
at Fargo, North Dakota, from which
place he wrote that he could not re-
turn to Moscow because the walk
ing was bad" has been reported to the
war department as deserted and will,
no doubt, be rounded up there.
