One is advised to ask dad: he knows
Usually one is afraid to ask dad.
One remembers certain times in ones
youth when asking dad would not have
been the safest course. To be sure,
dad smokes, himself, and perhaps he
does know; but one decides to expert
nient on the b~est-sounding brands till
one becomes somewhat of a veteran.
Dad will find it out soon enough. Of
course, at first he will frown dark1y,
look very angry, threaten a little, per-
haps, but finally he will remember his
own glorious youth with its delicious
first experience, and with a ON
descending well, my son, if you must
smoke, use the best brand, the battle
will be over and the victory won. And
mother,-well, of course, she'll either
cry or scold, but she's a woman and
can't sympathize, anyway. We don't
expect her to. All one can do is to
take her attitude Tor granted and pay
no attention to it. Anyhow, she'll
soon get over it.
Besides, one will soon be fifteen, and
the manly accomplishment of pulling
at a pipe, will make quite a hit with
the g iris. They all seem to like it,
or else appearances are very deceiving.

WITH THE BRITISH ARM
les AFIELD-Three British
Tommies, just escaped from a
German prison, told of ex-
traordinary bad treatment.
They crossed many lines of
trenches in the escape.
1--WE were first imprisoned
in a chalk pit and then trans
ferred to a camp where there
were already 1000 British,
French and Algerians," said
one. German officers threat
ened to shoot some prisoners
for refusing information. We
were housed in leaky huts,
without o%vercoats or blankets
in the coolest weather. Some
times we worked on roads
within range of our own guns.
Our food was black bread,
thin soup and weak coffee.
Bathing facilities were nil. We
were driven to work under
penalty of whippings. There
were no doctors, and the sick
had to toll hard as anysof U.s."

BAKER, Ore.--Baker people tall

NOBODY is EXEMPT FROM
REGISTRATION.

Il am exempt from con-
!. scription, SO | don't have to
. register
|. That's a bad mistake, like
ly to lead to disagreeable con-
sequences.
You may be exempt from
observation-disclosures that is
for the authorities, not you, to
decide-but you are NOT ex-
empt from registration.
Every man who stands be-
tween his 21st birthday and his
31st MUST register.
Be he single or married, be
native, ~naturalized or alien, be
he lame, blind, halt, sick or
we'll, still he must register.
The question of exemption is
not up to the individual, but
to the authorities.
Register June 5; and if you
are to be away on that day,
register with the local authori-
ties before leaving.
There is utterly no exemp-
ton from the obligation to reg
lister, and there is severe pun
ishment for those who fail to
register.

STATE TO'INyEST IN BONDS

Idaho is to invest part of her surplus funds de-
rived from the sale and lease of public lands in Liberty
Loan bonds. The following is an extract from the
minutes of a recent meeting of the state land board:
ct was moved by the attorney general, and
upon roll call unanimously carried, that the
state land board, on and after December Is,
1917, purchase at par liberty bonds from the
various banks of the state, which bonds may
be held and owned byfhe banks and purchased
by them prior to June Is, 1917"
In addition to this the land board the other day
voted to invest $1,000 900 now on hand in Liberty Loan
bonds.

What, we are frequently asked, is
Sc rare as a day in June?
This makes us tired.
About this time every yea some
fool comes demanding to know about
that.
Now, there's nothing rare about a
day In June.
There are just as many days in JUNE
as there are in September; and darn
neal as many as there are in almost
any other month you might mention.
Why wish all the rarity on a day i n
June?
Why not pass it around a bit?

WHY AMERICA FIGHTS.

/ The right is more precious than peace and we
/ shall fight for the things which we have always
+ carried nearest our hearts-for democracy, for
/ the right of those who submit to authority to
! have a voice in their own government, for the
!. rights and liberties of small nations, for a uni

free people as shall bring peace and safety to
all nations and make the world itself at last free.
To such a task We can dedicate our lives and our
fortunes, everything that we are and everything
that we have with the pride of those who know
that the day has come when America has been
privileged to spend her blood and her might for
the principles that gave her birth and happiness
