LOCAL MEN ARE NOT IN FIGHT
A F. Parker Believes Grangeville Men
Are Behind Lines

Grangeville soldiers are not engaged
in the great allied offensive in France,
is the belief 0f A. +. Parker.
ITO the btst of my information,
knowledge and belief, said Mr.. Par
ker, mo part OF the old Second Idaho
regiment is OF has been on the western
battle front. Our local company "E"
merged wit thhe 10th engineers as a
part OF the Forty-first or Surset" di-
vision, which has been engaged in en-
gineering work since it arrived in
France.
General March, chief of-stGtf, an
nounces that the American divisions en-
gagged in the larger offensive are the
First, Second, Third and Fourth regu-
lars, and the Twenty sixth and Twenty
eighth national guard. In addition to
these troops the Forty second national
guard is on the right flaIk-the
Champagne-togethe with a colored
regiment from the new Ninety-third d.
vision. He does not mention the Sun
set" division, and the casualty lists are
all from eastern troops. In my judg-
ment it is very unlikely that our local
boys will be switched to the battle
fronts, as their work of transportation,
and supply is too vital to
turned over to men new to this import
ant detail.''

IDAHO FOOD DICTATOR
RESCINDS MANDATE
CLOSING BUSINESS

The state food administrator
order regulating the hours bust
ness houses may remain open, has
been rescinded so far sIdaho
county is concerned, according
to q statement issued this week
by Victor Peterson, ~ounty food
administrator.
The state food administrator
was confronted with many pro-
tests against his closing order,
that he modified the order time
and again until finally he decided
to leave the matter of closing to
be regulated by individual
counties.
The original order was consid-
cred as not essential TO the prose-
cution of the war, and, al
though local merchants abided by
the provisions until the restric-
ton was lifted, the order was
very unpopular here.

Iieves that it will be a paying propo-
sition. The outfit was constructed prin-
cipally from parts Of old mining equip

FREE PRESS TO AID
U. s. IN CONSERVING
= NEwsPRINT SUPPLY

AS a further step in comply
ing with the governments re-
quest to save newsprint, the
Idaho County Free Press will,
whenever practicable, reduce the
number of pages in this news
paper from eight to six. While
the saving in cost of production
of the newspaper will be negligi-
BILE, when extra labor entailed in
the printing of a 6-page news
paper is considered, nevertheless,
if six pages, instead Of eight are
printed consinuOusly five months
supply of newsprint under the
SPACE system, will last six
months, when six pages are
printed. Therefore, until the
shortage of newsprint is relieved,
we shall, whenever possible, limit
the size of the Free Press to six
pages. We believe we can so
condense the news that no dis
advantage will be felt by our
subscribers, and they will be
glad to know that they are CO.
operating with us in aiding the
government in. this time of stress.
If every paper in the country
were to eliminate two pages from
each issue, the saving in Rews-
print would be enormous.

thin PEOPLE

Nothing Like Plain BitrO-Prosphate to

Judging from the countless prepara-
tions and treatments which are con
tinually being advertised for the pur-
pose of making thin people feshy de
yeloping arms, neck and bust, and re
placing ugly hollows and angles by
the soft curved lines Of health and
beauty. there are evidently thousands
of men and women who keenly feel
their excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are usually
due to starved nerves Our bodies
need more phosphate than is contain
ed in modern foods. Physicians claim
there is nothing that viii supply this
deficiency so well as the organic
phosphate known among druggists as
bitro-phosphate, which is inexpensive
and is sold by Gokay and most all
druggists under a guarantee of salts
faction or money back. BY feeding
the nerves directly and by supplying
the body eel S with the necessary
phosphorlc food elements, btro- phos-
phate quickly produces welcome
transformation in the appearance; the
increase in weight frequently being
astonishing.
This increase in weight also carries
with it a general Improvement in the
health. Nervousness. sleeplessness
and lack OF energy. which nearly al
ways accompany excessive thinness,
soon disappear dull eyes become

CAUT1ON:-Although bitrophos-
phate is unsurpassed for relieving
nervousness. sleeplessness and gener-
al weakness, it should not, owing to
its remarkable flesh growing proper
