The following is the text of an ap-

Five thousand Idaho boys are on
the far-flung battle line across the
Atlantic. AS many more are wearing
the Uniform of their country in the
various training camps. They are
getting ready to take their places on
the field of honor In France From
every walk in life they come, clean
minded, square -shouldered, clear-eyed
boys from farm and factory, from
store and bank office.
"Some of our boys have made the
final sacrifice; some have given their
lives In defense of humanity. Hardly
day passes that does not see placed
a new star of gold upon the states
great service flag. On the field OF
honor, beneath the lilies of France
/ they sleep. And we, in our mournful
\ deathless pride in them must work
/ Without ceasing to make sure they
have not died in vain.
Citizens of Idaho, there is here q
large field of honor on which every
one Of us must play his part, must
carry on the battle from the sunrise
through the heat and burden Of the
d day, that few may rest in the shade OF
the freedom we love, the freedom our
4 boys are dying for, as the evening
& shadows fall.
The government is asking that you
invest your dollars freely, ungrudg-
mgy and to the uttermost limit In
bonds of the fourth Liberty loan

tain at 81, did not invest. He gave
Dis life in the morning of his youth

but we can whip them John M. Re.

vest He gave; gave his youth, his
prospects of years of ease and luxury
gave his life.
You, citizens of Idaho. are not
asked to give. You are invited to be-
come stockholders in the greatest or.
anlzation for human service since
ae beginning of time. And the govern
aent will return every dollar you
invest with interest. Dare you with.
aOld single dollar? The question is
nOt how much you can invest, but how
much dare you retain?
The men in charge of the fourth
Liberty loan are sacrificing their busi-
sess to help put it over. Don't wait
or committee to call on you. You
Ny down with your conscience. You
reason this thing out. Let the fires OF
your American citizenship burn away
'ae dross of selfishness. Don't let the
Ouer fellow do it all. Get in, get in
ulizens of Idaho. Put that money OF
Ours ON the fighting line for liberty
or humanity, for God"
