is GERMANY FEINTING2

The fact that Germany which clearly guards all
her military secrets, has been for months announcing
that she is preparing for great drive the west front
and will be in Paris in April leads of the editor
ia1 writers believe, in the light of recent events in
Russia, that the west front drive is only fent to
ceal the actual plans of Germany for great drive
Russia. The Spokesman-Review suggests
Their loud trumpeting of forthcoming smashing
western drive suggests camoufage. 1t is not improb
able that their real objective is Russia and Italy that
they scheming extend their empire far into the
east and the southeast and hope to capture extensive
territories there as compensation their abandoned
hope of winning in the west.
with Russia practically under the German flag and
Serbia and Rumana in the Prussian grip, Germany
would probably be eager for peace based its with
drawal from Belgium and surrender of captured
in France Given a free hand in the east it could
yet further and still end the victorious. 1t could
yield up Asace and Lorraine and make monetary
reparation for Belgium, provided it left to
its plans for powerful Germanic empire extending
into Russia and down through raHungary and
Turkey into Asia Minor"

the mustering in of Company G, first battalion third

OF Moscows manhood, stood in Eks temple and, with
appraised hands. called upon Almighty God to witness
their oath of allegiance United States and the
state of Idaho and that they do their full duty
fearlessly and honorably. That was proud moment
for every of the 49, 1t is moment which they
will never be ashamed and which they will never re-
greet
All honor to these men, who the heroes of the
American revolution
Mustered in their simple Dress
For wrongs to seek a stern redress
To right those wrongs veal come VICE.
To perish oercome their foe"
These men, without the uniform, without any show
dressed in the garb they had they quit work
in the evening" stood straight and proud and unafraid
and took the oath that not of them will break
They are fine looking body of men, strong in the
vigor of mature manhood, full health and strength
and determination. When they get uniforms and
