RED CROSS DANCE
A SPLENDID SUCCESS
Exceptional MUSIC, CONGENIAL
CROWD AND NICE SUM
REALIZED

Red Cross workers are enthusiastic
over the success of the dance given
last evening at the Elks temple. 1t
was success in every way. AS
social function it could not have been
more enjoyable. The music by the
Kappa Sigma "Jazz" band could not
have been beaten anywhere; there
was a large and thoroughly congen-
ial assemblage of Moscow citizens
and there was no incident, from first
to last, to mare the pleasure of the
occasion. The net proceeds for the
Red Cross treasury were approximate
ly S87. All members of the Red Cross
committee that had the matter in
hand desire to express their sincere
thanks to the Elks lodge, the Kappa
Sigma fraternity the Moscow City
Band and to all others who assisted
in making the dance success. 1t is
proposed to have two similar affairs
later. one about Thanksgiving and one
about Christmas.

LAST ARMY
HEROISM AND STRATEGY OF THE
HIGHEST ORDER BROUGHT
INTO PLAY
HEAVY SACRIFICE MADE
HOLDING THE AUSTRO- O-GERMANS
AT BAY AT THE TAGLIAMENTO
RIVER
By JOHN H. HEARLEY

ROME-Unparallel heroism on the
part Of the Italians made possible the
withdrawal of General Cadorna's third
army practically intact. The with
drawal of this third army is regarded
a strategic feat unapprOached in any
previous war maneuvers of the war
Practically encircled the Italians cut
their way out, fighting day after day
without complaint and encOunterlng
an overwhelming superiority in arms
and men. The Infantry, cavalry, aero
planes and motorcycle detachments
magnificently faced the great masses
of the enemy until the main body OF
the third army could safely withdraw.
In certain sections the second army
held the Isonza heights when the ap-
proaches were literally alive with the
enemy. Detachments charged to GER
tain death to enable their comrades
to escape.

ROME-Italian gunfire today re-
pulsed the enemy's patrols along the
Tagliamento river, it is officially stat
ed Artillery fire is intense by both
Italians and Austro-GermanS.

sia must turn the entire war burden
over to the allies created consterna-

the war is important because of the

Makes Good Record

"My understanding is that the uni
versity was chartered by the last ter
ritorial legislature and that when it
opened its doors some three years
later its faculty was composed of only
two members. You now have faculty
, Of something like 100 members. Let
us not forget that it was our forefa-
theirs who laid the foundation of this
great institution My own father was
one of the first regents of the Univer-
sity of Idaho and served on the board
with your esteemed townsman, Judge
J. H. Forney. He, like myself has
loved this institution because it was
an essential part of Idaho. It's where
it should be and where it ought to re-
main If transportation facilities
could be afforded-and they will be
instead of having 600 students you
would have 1000 or better.
Value of Moral Training
II am also gratified to know that
moral training is emphasized by the
instructors in this, our mother educa-

fashioned enough to believe that NOR
al training and intellectual develop
ment are reciprocal elements. They
are both essential in an efficient prep
aration for good citizenship. BY all
means let the atmosphere Of the uni
versity continue to be Christian at

the educational center of the state,
you are the hope of the state; and al

ledge may continue to radiate to eve
