GOVERNMENT Is
WAKING UP

The United States government has
made discovery, 1t has found out
that newspaper space is commodity
that costs money and that it, the
government, has no more right to
ask for it free of charge than 1t
has to ask the paper dealer to fur
nish his paper free OF charge or to
ask the steel mills to furnish steel
free to the government.
During the spring drive to sell the
first issue of Liberty bonds, the
newspapers of the land got behind
the task and furnished millions and
millions of dollars worth of adver-
Using space. informing the people
of all the ms and outs of the situa-
ton, with the result that the desired
amount was over subscribed. The
government discovered that the
country press had been the greatest
factor in making the sale success,
so congress has appropriated $5,-
100000 to apply on the cost of
such work for the second bond sale.
The first thing Secretary McAdoo did
was to contract for five and half
million posters to spread over the
country for use in giving informa-
ton about the bond sale. He has
not yet announced how he will ap-
portion the rest of the money among
the newspapers furnishing service,
but in the course of the congress
sional discussion over the appropria-
ton it has come to light that the
big city papers were paid for their
advertising service in the first bond
sale, but the money was furnished,
not by the government, but by the
city people. All of the country press
did it's work free, and in the Red
Cross work it furnished advertising
service free and gave its good money
along with the rest besides. Under
the present plans the country papers
will probably get few dollars
apiece to apply on the advertising
space.
The public have long been accus-
toned to have the local press fur
nish it's working organization for
most public purposes free, and the
publishers are largely to blame for
this, having over-worked the idea
that their income depended upon the
good will Of the public to such an
extent that they should be ever ready
to render service. Publishers who
try to put such things on business
basis have pioneering to do to get
it accepted that way. A case in point
happened in Bingham county during
the Red Cross drive few months
ago. When certain printing house
was asked for a sum of money for
the fund it gave twice as much as
was asked for. 1t furnished all the
advertising they wanted free, and
when orders were turned in for COM
mercial printing the goods and SER
vice were furnished promptly at the
prices that would have been charged
to any other customer. When the
committee got the bill for the work
they decided that the printing house
ought to knock off their profit. The
request was complied with, the profit
deducted from the total and then the
committee took the liberty of leaving
the publisher to carry the account
indefinitely, whereupOn the pub
Usher told the committee to take
their Red Cross printing and go
strainght to hades with it, that life
was too short to give them every
thing he had.

PATIENCE.

Patience 10 the guardian of
faith, the preserver Of peace, the
cherisher of love, the teacher of
humility. II governs the flesh,
strengthens the spirit, sweetens
the temper, stiles anger, extin-
guishes envy, subdues pride, bril-
dies the tongue, trampIes on
temptation, endures persecution
and consummates martyrdom.
Acquire patience If you have II
not.

TWO KISSING STORIES
RECITED REGARDING
OUR SOLDIER BOYS

Display of affection. like pretty
much everything else here at Funston.
is open and aboveboard. Much of the
etiquette of civil life is discarded for
a code Of conduct more suited to the
circumstances Of an army cantonment
and based after all, on common sense
Hundreds CT soldiers in training for
the national army are visited each
day by wives, mothers, sisters or
sweethearts. and on some days thou
sands of women are in Manhattan to
get a brief visit with their men folks.
The only place in camp where these
men and women can meet is the Y.
W. c. A hostess house, and when
that becomes crowded the other ecu
pies must perforce meet and greet
each other in the open. And when
wife or best girl has crossed one or
three states to see you, and you have
only an hour or SO from military rou-
tine to visit and say goodbye, your
greeting is not likely to be formal.
So ii happens that boys and girls,
men and women, kiss each other in
the street in sight of hundreds of
other people. without embarrassment,
for other couples here and there are
doing the same. They sit down
wherever they happen 10 be, on a
curb. beside a road near the street
car tracks or on the side of the big
hill facing the camp. and indulge in
such displays of affection as are usu-
ally associated in the minds of home
folks with the hammock in the side
yard or the cosy corner" Nobody
pays any attention to them. and the
only result os these intimate little
glimpses into the affections of stran-
gers upon observers, indeed, is likely
to be a wave of inconsistencies.
The patriotic kiss of a fair maiden
at Flagstaff has brought unexpected
results, if reports current in Williams
are true. and as they are substantiated
by plenty of evidence it seems that
they may he believed.
About two weeks ago the Flagstaff
Normal school girls assisted the ladies'
of Flagstaff in caring for the soldiers
passing through that city by serving
coffee and sandwiches. and occasional
patriotic kisses. too, to the troopers.
Undesirable though ii was. ii never
theless has developed that in all prob
ability this was the manner in which
several of the girls contracted small
pox or some very similar disease.
Three Of the young ladies have been
very i'll and are in quarantine at the
Normal. and at last reports symptoms
of the malady were unmistakable. Pu-
pills living in other dormitories were
allowed TO return to their homes. but
the residents of the hall in which the
patients had roomed we're not allowed
/ to leave after the quarantine was es-
tablished Friday. This ruling was ac-
countable for the information reach
I ing the public. as several mothers
I here were and are very much worried
over the forced absence of their dauGh-
! tiers.
The Flagstaff press has SO far re
Trained from noting the presence of
the malady in that city and had fewer
students of the school passed through
Williams going home for vacation II
is doubtful if the facts would have
become so well known.

will make the affair an unusually sue

will find pages stationed at the doors
of the High school building, in the
corridors and dressing rooms, who will
answer questions and direct her to
the gymnasium. The musical program
commences at o'clock with selections
by Parish's orchestra of six pieces.
Dancing begins at $3.50, and is re-
lieved of becoming monotonous to
those who do not care to dance by
song groups being interspersed. AT
