LOCAL BOY
KILLED in
FRANCE
Gideon Potter, Son of MoanaIua
Gardener, Falls Victim to
German Shells; Enlisted a
Year Ago
ASSOCIATED Press by U. S. Naval WirsIsss.)

3 OTTAWA, Canada, Nov. 20. = The
nGme of G. Potter of Hawaii. appears
among the list of casualties of Cana
dian troops given out today.
While the location of the fighting in
which Potter lost his life is not given,
it was probably on the French front,
with the Canadian contingent there.
Gideon Potter was little more than
10 years of age, his Honolulu friends
say He was the eldest son of Alex.
Potter, an assistant to Donald Mac
Intyre, the gardener at the Moanalua
state of S. M. Damon. He was born
near Edinburgh, Scotland
Gideon came to the islands with his
parents when he was or 10 months
of age and had resided on Hawaii
and Oahu since. For a number of
years his father was employed on Ha-
wall plantations and afterwards by
the Pearl City Fruit Co. For the past
four years the family has lived at
Moanalua.
The major portion of young Potter's
education was. received at the Homo.
lulu military academy, where he spent
two or three years. Nearly year
ago he left Honolulu in company with
Fred Costing, another Honolulu-raised
youth, and went to Vancouver to join
the Canadian forces. HIS friends think
he enlisted in machine gun company.
Before Leaving Honolulu he was EN-.
ployed by the Audit Company of Ha.
wall.
Costing was reported severely
wounded some time ago by machine
gun bullet which entered his right
shoulder and passed downward
through his body to his left hip. He
has been lying in hospital at Shelf
field. Eng, but according to last re-
ports it was expected he would be able
to be removed to his home in the
south of England the latter part of
this MONTH y So
When Costing was in Honolulu he

NEW YORK, Nov. 2O.-More than
ever critical was the situation on the
Italian front ST night following the
continuance yesterday of the contin-
ued battling Of the Austro-G German
forces to cut their way through the
Italian lines and press onward over
the Venetian plains to Venice. While
the Italian line held strongly at the
center and to the south and the Huns
abandoned their efforts to sever the
northern and southern armies, in the
north severe disasters were sustained
and the situation of Venice became
more threatening than ever.
Hold Well on Long line
ALI day long yesterday hand to hand
encounters occurred along the Italian
front. Massed forces Of Teuton I'M
fantry were hurled against the strong
Italian positions, and when one force
failed larger ones were sent to carry
on a renewal of the offensive. Using
machine guns, rifle fire, hand grenades
and the bayonet with deadly effect,
and aided by the fire from the Italian
navy near the mouth Of the Piave, the
Latin forcer bravely held the enemy in
check along the greater part Of the
front from the Adriatic up the Pave
river. but further north their strength
gave way before the terrific onslaught
of storming parties and they were
forced to give.

advantages gained at these two points

These other positions were Monte
Onba and they are almost the last
strongholds that bar the way for the
Huns to the Venetian plains and check
an advance upon Venice.

From two Green Forest Boys

To our dear friends who read The Tribune:-We wish to write to you thru the columns of The Tribune as we cannot write each of you separately. We pronounce California the most ideal state we have been in, excepting Arkansas.
 We supposed Salt Lake City to have been the most beautiful city to be seen, but after crossing the San Francisco Harbor our minds iwere changed. We find the climate of California very pleasant, indeed. but the scenery ot the tropical fruit groves is becoming less interesting than at first, as our em- ployment has been the cultivating of the groves.
 We are situated in one of the most picturesque places we have been in, as we are surrounded by the tropical fruit groves and at distance of fifteen miles lies the snow capped Serria Nevada mountains.
 As we de not wish to take up too much space we will close for this time, sending our best regards to all.

What Is Patriotism?

1t Is an opportune moment right now for the American people to halt and inquire who are the patriots in this country?
 Certainly they are not included in the aggregation of hogs that have our food stuffs tied up for speculation. forcing prices to the sky. while the poor of the country are verging upon starvation. Certainly they are not even included among those who are purchasing or have purchased and stored away many months provisions ahead, for fear that "me and my wife and my son John and his wife" might not have just what we want to eat. while others around us suffer. Such people are hogs and they ought to be jared loose from their store houses and forced to take their chances with those who can do no better than to let each day provide for itself.
 It is no wonder that there is talk of government food control. It will have to take charge of the situation and beat the dogs off This war with Germay will have served good pur- pose if it wakes the people up to cure some of the eating sores in our gov ernmental system.
 Be man or woman without being made to be. You can't feast while your neighbors starve and there is no use to cater to such selfish desire. Get busy and help improve the general situation. If this old ship of state goes down we all sink together By helping others now you are using the most direct method possible in helping your.- Exchange.
