Liberty bonds. In order to have the
state keep up its record for supply
ing funds for war purposes, and to
come up to the expectations of the
executive committee OF the 18th dis
trict Idaho must buy bonds to the
amount of s1O,000,000.
The government must have three
billion dollars and to get this Idaho
must subscribe at least $7,900,000.
Some people have the idea that
to buy a liberty bond is to make a
donation to the government" said
former Governor James H. Hawley.
IF the government were taking our
dollars in the shape of taxes no loyal
citizen would have the right to COM
plain. We are however, offered a
government bond that pays per
cent interest. Holdings up to $4,000
are exempt from all taxes. Can you
find a better or safer investment for
the man with money? The man who
refuses to buy Liberty bond If he
has the money to buy with, is not a
good citizen. The question of invest

FIRST NUMBER LYCEUM
COURSE OCTOBER PATH.

The entertainment course which
has been arranged for Meridian by
our local committee we believe will
receive the hearty approval and en-
dorsement of all the good people Of
our community. Those who have as
sumed the responsibility and selected
the attractions for the coming season
have done so with the belief that our
citizens will appreciate and sanction
all effort to bring to our town the
high class entertainment and inspir-
ationaI and educational features
which the lyceum affords.
The course has been selected with
the idea of quality, variety and en-
tertainment and it gives us great
pleasure to be able to present the
numbers at an expense for the course
within the reach of all, and we be-
speak for this worthy enterprise the
moral and financial support of all
our citizens.

BIG FRUIT DRIER HAS
STARTED SEASONS RUN

Operation of the mammoth evap-
orator Of the Earl -McBirney inter-
ests, has been started with crew
of workers. The drying of prunes
was started in one section of the big
plant last week, and another section
was put into commission Friday.
There are four sections in the big
plant, but it is planned to use no
more than two of them this season.
The shortage of the prune crop ac-
counts for the fact that the evapor-
ator is not to be run at anything near
is capacity.

SOLDIERS LETTERS.
From Fred Fenton.

Dear Mother;
Camp Green, Charlotte, ~ G,
There has been a change in oui2
plans since we arrived here We have
been placed here as base hospital for
the time and that order may hold us
as we are the first hospital company
here and the only only one to take
charge of hospital patients among
the troops here now II that order
holds, / will never see France for
we will be held here to tend the
troops that are drafted from time to
time. Our patients are already ar
irving.
/ am serving as orderly this week
and am getting a chance to look all
the big guns over Some of the
lieutenants are important" but the
older men are pretty competent look
ing.
There are 1920 acres in this camr
and sixty-five acres of this is given
up to hospital buildings alone Or
the remainder $4,000 soldiers are tc
be placed and they are rolling ii
right now. There Is still four weeks
more work to be done on the camp
but they have already completed
quarters for $1,000. It is hard Il
imagine looking down line o
kitchens two miles long, then to
move up the line half mile farthet
and see the same thing again, bu
nevertheless this is true and thes'
kitchens are only twenty feet apart
There is complete system 0
roads connecting different points 0
the camp. These roads are grayellet
and graded and are taken care OF b,
/ government crews.

REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
BY ADELE GARRISON

to me, asking me to keep them for
him when he first YVES brought into
the ward. 1t was against the rules,
of course, but my sympathies weren't
so we'll under control then'-she
looked quizzically at me-. and I saw
that she still resented my unspoken
criticism of her method of dealing
with Mrs Allis-"and I did as he
asked Among the things in the little
bag was the skeleton key. and it has
proved useul to me Two or three times
since then. But never has it done
such good service 'as tonight"
She rose and looked again at Mrs.
Allis.
Shell be quiet for a couple Of
hours yet" she said. GO into my
room and get some sleep. I don't
need you at all now"
go to sleep!" echoed Indignantly
do I impress you as being a phleg-
matte creature who could go to sleep
after an adventure of this sort. And,
besides, you know I wouldn't leave
you here alone. So please say nothing
more about it,
VERY we'll" She accepted my ulti-
matum quietly, but I guessed that Sc
cretly she was glad to have my COM
! pany in her vigil. Now for the next
question. Shall you or 1 go down
stairs, get the electric grill and make
| a pot of strong coffee? L shall need
| 1t for this specimen on the bed when
she wakes, and I'm sure cup of good,
steaming coffee would do us both
good
1 knew Katherine's weakness for
coffee of old, and her words awak-
! ened my own liking for the beverage.
"I'l go down." 1 said at once. II
| know where things are. and besides I
should be mortally afraid to be left
alone again with her'-I indicated
the silent figure on the bed
! "What's to Be Dons?"
| II know" Katherine nodded &C
| quiescence, land besides you do make
the most scrumptuous coffee.!'
| 1 hurried downstairs, calmed by
! Katherine's manner made the coffee
prepared a tray and brought two
| cups and some sandwiches upstairs
We sat for long time over the cot
fee, talking in low tones of the wo.
man who had SO nearly brought
tragedy into my room but a short
time before Katherine ended ou1
talk by saying:
And now the next thing to con
slider is-what's to be done with here
| perhaps you'll be so kind as to lie
me decide that for myself" said
hooking voice from the bed.

The other day I sat down to write
letter and found myself shrinking
from the process more than usual.
"Now why is it?'' 1 wondered as
took up my pen. And then 1 knew.
1 had a poor scratchy pen and an
ink we'll SO scantily supplied that I
had to keep dipping my pen.
Consciously I had forgotten the de-
feet or I would have remedied it, but
subcorsciously the sense of my poor
equipment had been a factor in my
disinc1ination. !
I think subconscious sense of In
adequate equipment is often a fac
tor in ones dislike of a task.
The Man Who Hates to Carve.

GREATER THAN ALL
THE HONOR SYSTEM"

The picturlZatiCn of THE Honor
System being shown on the screen
at Fox's theater daily until Thursday
evening, depicts in clear manner the
one-time horrors undergone by the
unfortunate inmates of some of the
prisons throughout the country, and
the marked changes that have been
brought about through the installa-
ton of a more humane system. The
picture carries with it more heart
throbs than have been shown in other
big features at the theater, the audi
ence at all performances evincing
keen interest in every scene. The PIC
ture is in ten reels, consuming about
two and one-half hours.
Around Joe Stanton (Milton Sills),
Trixie Bennett,> (Gladys BrockwelD,
Jack Taylor George Walsh) and
Ethel Steele miriam Cooper) the plot
is laid. The story deals with Stanton
who is called to Howling Dog, Okla,
to accept a place in a copper concern.
While there, an uprising is started by
Mexican bandits who have been aid
ed by an interruptions district at
torney. The town also has its motor
ious dance halls in which Stanton
makes the acquaintance Of Trixie
slst in her uplift work and when he
is attacked by one of the habitues OF
the den in self defense, he kills the
latter. He is found guilty Of murder
and is sentenced to Imprisonment for
life Then begins the story Of bar
barious treatment accorded prisoners
BY a brutal warden who is afterWarG
discharged by a kindly governor, act
ing on an appeal from Stanton. These
scenes will show how prisoners
were dashed and thrown into dirty
dungeons to pass away the remainder
of their eXistance.
Pv the installation of the honor
system stanton is let out on three
days parole to perfect wireless in
vention and during this time numer-
Gus attempts made by henchmen
of the district attorney to take his
life The attorney is later trapped
and sent to prison, where he becomes
one of the beneficiaries OF the system
! that Stanton was instrumental in hav-
| iC installed The selection of the var-
! ious characters for the scenes shows
sreat care.
