SECOND IDAHO REGIMENT
is NOW NATIONAL UNIT


The national guard Of Idaho, with
the guard In all the other states in
the union, ceased existence last Mon
day and became units Of the regular
army. in accordance with the procla-
nation of President Wilson, issued
July 9th.
The companies of the second Idaho
which had been doing guard duty at
various points throughout the north
west, were modified in Boise the
past week. The regiment will re-
main there until the cantonment is
ready at Palo Alto, which will be
about two weeks Upon its arrival
in Palo Alto the regimentSwilI be
given intensive drilling, preparatory
to going to. France. While the date
for the regiments departure for
France is uncertain, it is the general
belief that it will be on foreign soil
long before Christmas.
In changing from the national
guard to the regular army. the off
GERS accepted new commissions and
maintained the seniority which their
service in the national guard en-
titled them.
Except to the friends, and as a
means Of local Identification. the
boys will no longer be known al
members of the Second Idaho. A
new number, in the next govern
ment's regiment serials will be as
signed to the regiment within few
days.
New collar ornaments bearing tn,
regiments army number will be dis
tributed to the boys within a few
days Indicating their previous ser
vice, underneath the larger govern
ment number "2nd Idaho" will ap
pear, in parenthesis, on these orna
ments.
AS federal guard unit, the IN,
Idaho's status was simply that o

OREGON SHIP BUILDING
CALLS FOR MANY MEN


The secretary of the State Editor
ial Association of Portland, Oregon,
informs us that Oregon's effort to do
her part in the building of steel and
wooden ships for the war is seriously
crippled through lack OF labor.
Latest authentic information gath
cred points to the necessity of en-
ploying at once nearly IL 900 men in
the shipbuilding business at Portland
and between two and three thousand
in the yards outside.
While contracts already let and
certain to be placed in the near fu-
ture, it is stated by the shipbuilders
that from 10000 to $4,000 men
should be employed by the close of
the year, or early next year. The
work is on hand to give this employ
ment and the demand for ships is
growing greater every day.
The development of an industry
of this magnitude so suddenly has
resulted in drawing practically all of
the available men within immediate
reach, and already the ship-builders
of the state are urging laborers from
all parts of the west to take positions
in their plants.
Appeals are coming from national
officials and all the leading business
men of the East for all seaboard
states to concentrate their supreme
energies upon the program OF build
ing ships This is declared to be the
greatest duty confronting the nation
today and on every hand. it Is admit
ted frankly. despite the optimistic
statements of the allied forces, that
unless ships are built by America at
pace absolutely beyond the present
program, the effectiveness of the
United States in the European war
will be largely reduced. Germany Is
counting implicitly upon destroying
more ships than are built TO prevent
America from participating extens-
lively in the war. The submarine
program is making more rapid pro-
gress than the ship building pro-
gram. For this reason the federal
government is putting the building of
ships as the primary patriotic duty
of the people of the country. and urg-
ing every person who can aid in the
work to take 1t up with as much rev.
erence and as much sense OF duty as
if they were enlisting in the army.
Americas food. munitions, arms,
and men cannot reach Europe with
out an adequate supply of ships Best
authorities declare these should be
made of steel and wood as rapidly
as the forces OF the country can be
marshalled for the work
In the emergency every man who
has any mechanical or artisan skill
whatever Is being adapted 70 some

COUSIN OF Il. A. BURRELL
CELEBRATES 91st BIRTHDAY

The last sisue of the Democrat,
published at Carmi. Ill, contains an
interesting article relative to Orland
Burrell. one of the prominent men
Of that city, who recently celebrated
his 91st birthday. The old gem
tleman is a second cousin of e. A.
Burrell of this city. Mr.. Burrell's
father, who was cousin of Orlando
Burrell, died two years ago at the
age of SO years. The Democrats
article is as follows:
Some people are old at thirty
others get old at sixty, but 1t was ouI
pleasure last Thursday to meet q
ontleman who, while celebrating
his 91st birthday, said he didn't be-
eve he would ever get old.
There is no resident of White
county so well known and so highly
respected as Judge Orlando Bur.
ELL, and a pleasing tribute to his
popularity was shown Thursday
when hundreds of his friends gath
cred at his home in North Carmi
throughout the day to wish him well
on his birthday.
Judge Burrell is pioneer resi-
dent of White county in every sense
of the word. He has watched the
COW paths through the woodlands
change to paved streets in thriving
little city and has seen the OK team
supplanted by the 12-cylinder tour
ing car. He has been one of the his
tory builders OF White county and
the people of the county are unanf-
nous in doing him honor on crossing
the ninety-first milestone In LIES
journey.
.'For several years the Judge has
led a quiet life, devoting his time Ia
the management of his fine farms
throughout the county and to his
building in the heart of Carmi's bus,
mess district.
Orlando Burrell came to Carmi
from Bradford county. Pa, while q
boy of seven. He made the trip with
his family floating down the ALE,

the Ohio to Mt. Vernon, Ind, locat.
ing a few miles northwest OF this
city IN 1894. The Judge still owns
the farm on which his family settled

DRAFT WILL NOT INTER
FERE WITH HARVESTING

Provost Marshal General Crowder
announced Monday that the draft will
not interfere with the fall harvesting
according to information coming
from Washington.
Farm hands of military age will
not be granted temporary exemptions
but will be called out in the last
quota, thus permitting them to re-
main on the farms until the last
week of September.
General Crowder directed all local
boards to make a note of men whose
services will be required in gather
ing crops.
Crowder announced that notices
to drafted men, accepted for mill
tary service, will not specify date
to report, but will leave this date to
be fixed later. The adjutant gem
eral will notify each board to sum
mon about 90 per- cent of it's first
quota, another percentage for lat
er date, and so on.
Draft deserters and anti-conscrip-
tionists are well under control &C
rording to reports received by the de-
partment of Justice from riot centers
today. Without federal assistance
the state authorities have taken
prompt action. A few isolated bands
in Oklahoma are the only trouble
makers now.

The increase, according to the for

COLLAR BUTTONS.

The collar button, used externally, is
an aid to digestion. A lively and spirit
ed chase of a collar button in full flight
Is an excellent bit OF morning exer-
else and stimulates the digestive tract.
When collar button is seen to leap
from the shirt and speed to its hole
beneath the nearest dresser it is I'M
portant to be up on your toes and after
1t at once. II the collar button gets
away to a good start it is hard to re-
cover. Curious how collar buttons like
to snuggle beneath dressers. OF course
the relation of collar buttons to dress
ers has been touched upon before. The
most important evidence to be pro-
.duced for some while is that of a Kon-
kakee man who had left a couple Of
collar buttons under his dresser where
they made a nest In an old sock and
frightened him to the point of hys-
terics few weeks later. 1t was in
this way. While dressing one morn
ing after a night OF little sleep and
big doings one of the collar buttons
came waddling out from under the
dresser with a brood or bevy of young
collar buttons stwittering after it. the
mans mind was weakened or at least
he has been wearing sport shirts ever
since.

from sluggish kidneys.

about four ounces of Jad Salts from

Now Mickey was on the top of hiL

where repairs were necessary, so he
didn't see Little Brother right away.
And Little Brother, being very BASH

watched Mickey sniff around and spy
