GOVERNOR LISTER SAYS:

The need and value of good citi-
zenship has never been more forcibly
emphasized than during the month )
since our nation entered the world
war and the talents of every Ameri-
can have been called to the work of
safeguarding and perpetuating dem
ocracy and the principles of free in
stitutions.
"One Of the potent elements in the
making of good citizenship has been
the Sunday School. for IL Is in the
Sunday School that a definite plan for
the study and understanding of the
Bible is carried forward, and ii is on
the Scriptures that democracy, right
eousness and humanity are founded
1T is appropriate that the worl,
of the Sunday School should be rec
cenized al this critical time in the
progress Of civilization and the strug-
Gle for the preservation of thos.
ideals which have made America
great

planted beans. Here is the result of
this six-acre experiment in intensive

Camp Lewis, Oct. 28,1917.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ben Gettings,
Orofino, Idaho,
Dear Friends: l have been promis-
ing to write to you ever since l came
here, but never got to it till today
and am going to finish, too. 1t Is
just three weeks today since / came
to Camp Lewis. l like it very well
here. All the Clearwater county
boys who came here at the same time
I did were in the Depot Brigade for
a little more than two weeks, and
then most of them were transferred to
different places to the artil-
lery, some to the infantry, and some
to the machine-gun battalion. l am
one of the machine gunners. Wal
lace Robertson and l are both with
the same company. But we are liza
BILE to be transferred again at any
time. Some of the boys here have
been transferred a dozen times or
more.
When we first came here we didn't
drill more than about three or four
hours day, but it has been,increased
to about eight hours day lately. but
that is not very hard either. The
officers treat us pretty good, and we
get plenty to eat, tho we get nothing
fancy. Cake and pie are very scarce
and rare here. l had piece of pie
for dinner today, (the first pie since
] left Orofino), and believe we have
had cake twice. But / never did like
cake or pie, anyhow(?).
This camp contains $4,000 acres,
part of which is level, but some of it
is rough, and timber on good share
OF 1T. All the buildings are put up
around big fiat, which is used for
drill grounds. 1t is quite a sight to

Clearwater county can boast of at
least one real patriot in the person Of
Ed Marovich. who gave up his lob at
Potlatch the hour this country de-
clared war. and forthwith enlisted in
the service of his adopted country.
Young Marovich came to the United
States from the old world because of
the better opportunities it offered its
people. and he came fully resolved to
become an American citizen in everv
sense of the word. One of his first
acts was to apply for citizenship. but
which he has not yet attained be-
cause he had not yet acquired the
necessary amount of education tC

as truly American as the sons OF

WHAT ARE ELEVEN BILLIONS

The loan bill reported to the house
OF representatives plans for the bor-
rowing of $1,000, 100000 by the
Washington government from the
people of the United States.
This means. averaged up, that S11o
is borrowed from every man, woman
and child. and that the government
agrees to pay on that about $40
year interest. Manifestly. for the
payment of this interest the average
tax on each man. woman and child
i'll be $4.40 a year, and the sinking
fund provision must come from the
same source, which is the loaning
source. 1t is we'll to look these facts
in the face. Facts are rarely danger
Gus. unless they are concealed or for
gotten.
But the $1,000. 600. 900 will most
of it be spent in the United States and
will be paid out to our merchants. our
mechanics, etc. For the 10 years to
come. and at the expense of the flu

net advantage. Business will boom,
and il prices stay high wages will
meet them. Initiation is involved in
