Flesh and Blood and Wealth
CAR SHORTAGE SERIOUS
MAY RESULT IN BIG LOSS

Southern Idaho is threat
ened with enormous loss through
freezing of apples and potatoes be-
cause of inability to secure freight
cars for their transportation, accord
ing to kilograms sent last night to the
asking that steps be taken to relieve
the situation.
Judge Fremont Wood notified the
food administration that approximate
ly, 1000 cars of first grade Jonathan
apples are now awaiting shipment in
the Boise and Payette districts and
must be moved within 20 days. The
Twin Falls commercial club telegraph
ed that thousands of tons of apples
and potatoes would be lost in that sec
ton unless cars were furnished i'm
mediately.

By GEORGE ADE

| A house was burning All of the
neighbors, except one, were trying
to save the building. He sat on the
fence. Someone suggested that he
should help. They don't need me,
he replied THE others are so blamed
energetic and efficient that probably
the fire will be put out without me
turning a hand"
A ship was sinking. The captain or
dered all hands to the pumps Keep
the pumps going and l will land you
safely" that was the captains assur-
ance.
All of the sailors, except one, sprang
to the pumps This one sat on coil
of rope and smoked his pipe. do you
want to drown?" asked a shipmate. Il
won't drown" was the cool reply
Not while you boys are doing my
share of the work. I know you've
got to keep the pumps going whether
I help or not"
Once a great republic, in real need
of the loyal assistance of every cit
izen, called for subscriptions to bond
issue of enormous dimensions.
One kind of man said, Il don't be-
lieve I'll subscribe The country is
full of fellows that are all keyed up
and patriotic and when it comes to
a showdown they'll make few sacri
fees and takescare of my part of the
rather than see the en-
prise flatten out and fall"
Don't perch on the fence when your
leighbor's house is burning.
Don't sit on coil of rope when the
ship is sinking.

mands marched through Boisc's busi-
ness section shortly after 2:30 head
ed by the city band. No notice was
given in advance as to the hour of en-
training and the crowd on the streets
was smaller than it Enight have been
otherwise, but clarioning bells and
whistles brought hundreds Of citizens
to the Oregon Short line depot before
an actual departure had been effect
ed
The one-time guardsmen presented
a splendid martial appearance as they
marched to their ears. Boise has ex
perienced few such thrills OF pride
as it felt yesterday afternoon.

H|GHlSCHOOL WILL
WORK FOR RED CROSS
YOUNG FOLKS HUSTLE TO RAISE
500 IN A SUBSCRIPTION
CAMPAIGN

Students of the Moscow High
school have launched an unique cam
paign in the interest of the Red Cross.
1t is the securing of weekly subscrip-
tions to the Saturday Evening Post,
the Country Gentleman and the Ladies
Home Journal, the students to do all
the work of soliciting and distribut-
ing free and every cent of the profits
to go to the Red Cross.
This campaign is to run for 10 weeks
and teachers and pupils alike are
entering into it with fine enthusiasm.
They hope to realize $100 from their
efforts which will be a substantial
contribution to the great cause for
which the Red Cross is working. To
reach this objective, as they say on
the front in Flanders, teachers and
students must secure at least 400 reg
ular subscribers for 10 weeks for the
Post and Country Gentleman and
three months for the Ladies Home
Journal.
r. R. Sherfey, the district agent for
these Curtis Publishing company pub
lications, in order to encourage the
boys and girls engaged in this cam
paign, has agreed to donate his en-
tire profits to the schools on all
copies sold during the campaign per-
iod. This, with the margin allowed by
the publisher direct, will mean a
profit of 100 per cent on the weeklies
sold at five cents each and the month
ly at 15 cents.
Mr.. Sherfey has also agreed to
award two prizes of the value of IS /
each, one to the boy obtaining the
greatest number of subscribers to The
Country Gentleman, and one prize to
the girl obtaining the greatest num-
Der of subscriptions to the Ladies |
Home Journal, the minimum number |
of subscribers in each case being 25.
Keen rivalry is anticipated. The
campaign opens with the issue of Oc-
fober 27 of the Saturday Evening Post
and the Country Gentleman and the
issue of the Ladies Home
Journal

EQUALIZATION
OF WAR BURDEN
MAKES POWERFUL APPEAL FOR
LIBERTY LOAN AS WELL AS
TAX ON WEALTH

BOISE-Senator w. E. Borah in an
address in Boise made a powerful plea
for the support of the Liberty Bond is
sue. Germany is watching and
studying the distribution of Liberty
Bonds in this country" said he. They
will study the subscriptions to see
if the 1O5,OOO,O0O people of this coun-
try are behind the war. The kaiser
has said that this is the president S
war. Let the distribution of bonds
answer the kaiser once and for all
Every citizen must loan the govern
ment every dollar he can to discharge
the obligation the war has imposed.
All Must Do Their Bit
Il have been criticised for saying
the rich alone should pay the cost of
the war; have never said such a
thing. | would not insult the citizen
ship of the average man by making
such statement
Il did say and I still say that eve
ry citizen should answer the govern
ment's needs in accordance with his
MEANS
Senator Borah said the war was in
eyitable and that President Wilson
acted wisely when he decided that it
was far better to align ourselves with
heroic France and powerful England
than to later fight the German military
alone Now, that we are at
war;" said he, every citizen is re-
sponsible for the success or the failure
Of the war.
An American War
1T is no longer European war.
It is an American war and must be
ought on American principles and
carried forward according to Amer
can standards.
: Our soldiers are going forward to
light the battle of civilization. They
ire not going into the fight to satisfy
he ambitions of some monarch, but
O preserve the democratic institu-
ions of our country. If Germany
hould be successful in Europe she
would soon force her ideas upon South
america and would then undertake the
anne thing in the United States.
Flesh and Blood and Wealth
1--WE have conscripted the flesh and
lood of our country and We have the
light to do the same with wealth.
)ur country has not seen fit to do
his as yet 1t is merely asking you
0 loan your credit. The brave boys
Tho have gone to the front have laid
heir all upon the altar of their coun-
ry Should we who are left behind
estate to lay our dollars upon the
anne altar?"
