France cables that the hospitals ovel
there need an added supply of liner
as hard and constant use is fast de
pleting their stock.
1t is exceedingly difficult to secure
such articles or materials for then
in large quantities in the open market
at any reasonable price. Consequent
ly national headquarters asks that the
chapters share in providing the ar
tlcles on a plan which was tried most
successfully in limited number of
chapters some months ago. This plan
"the linen shower" is to ask each
family In the chapter jurisdiction to
contribute one article or set of ar
ticles taken from their reserve stock
or purchased. Thus, without material
reduction either of the household stock
or the sources of supply, the need may
be met.
Moscow's quota in this linen shower
is "a bath towels measuring 10 by
38 inches; $50 hand towels, Is by 80
inches; $50 handkerchiefs, 10 by 18
inches; z napkins, IA by ID inches and
100 sheets. These sheets should be
of heavy unbleached muslin and should
measure not less than "a by 1O2
inches after being made with one and
two inch hens. Larger ones will be
accepted but not smaller.
All articles should be new or sub
stantially new; of strong rather than
fine texture. Dimensions are approx
mate only, and while the articles are
spoken of as linen they are of course
of cotton texture.
The linen drive in Latah county has
been set for the first two weeks in
October. And as this is voluntary
contribution the committee in charge
asks that each article be labeled with
the name of the giver and left at
the Red Cross rooms on Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday afternoons
of the two weeks of the drive when
the committee will be in charge to
receive them. Articles can also be
left at the desk in the Red Cross
rooms at any time.
Committee: Mrs. T. A. Meeker,
Mrs. W. H. Abendroth, Mrs. M. Howe.
Appeals for Workers.
Mrs. Warren Truitt, of Moscow
chapter, Red Cross, asks that more
workers volunteer their services for
work along this line. Mrs. Truitt
says: eve have plenty of material
low and we need more workers. We
want every woman who can do any
sewing or other work to come to Red |
Cross headquarters and get material
md make something needed. 1t is
that we have more workers

ENORMOUs||CROWD
SEESI|WAR TROPHIES
RELICS OF EUROPEAN WAR
DRAW CROWD TO MOSCOW
EXHIBITS WORTH SEEING

A crowd estimated at $500 persons
thronged the Northern Pacific rail
road yards today and saw the trophies
from the battle fields in Europe. The
crowd was so great that not more
than half of the people got to go
through the box car and probably
25 per cent did not get close enough
to the flat cars to see the exhibits
and hear the talks. President Lind
ley, of the University of Idaho, made
a strong talk in favor of buying Lib
erty bonds and was literally cheered
by the big, good natured crowd. r
Twenty minutes before the time for
the train to leave one of the men who
was keeping count of those passing
through the box car where the smaller
exhibits were, announced that $500
persons had passed through the car.
Probably this number was swelled to
5000 before it was announced that
the train must leave for Kendrick
and Lewiston.
The exhibits consisted of cannon of
Various calibres, shells of all calibres,
from machine guns up to IA inch
shells that cost $4,000 to load and
fire, and the large box car was filled
with trophies, complete list of which
was given in yesterdays paper.
The crowd, composed of men,
women, children and the Indians of
the roundup crew, packed the
grounds, damned one another and
5oshed good naturally until the
people got close enough to the cars
to hear the lectures and ask questions.
There can be no doubt that the buy
ing of bonds will be greatly stimu-
ated by the visit of this train to Mos
cow and the committee IN charge
feels that it has been a paying adj
yertisement for the bonds.

ETHER MAKES QUICK CURE
Negro, Trying to Avoid Draft, Forgets
About Back Disease When He
Comes To.

Camp Gordon, Atlanta, Ga.-A Geor-
gia negro selectman was being exam
ined by the medical officers and devel-
oped a strange case of spinal deform-
ity. He declared he had been afflicted
for years. When tried at drill he was
so drawn and bent in the back that
military service seemed an impossi-
bility. He was taken to the hospital
and told an apparently straight story
Of his affection. A light dose Of
ether was administered. When the ne
gro returned to semiconsciousness he
raised up, stretched himself perfectly
straight, walked about the room, and
acted normally. Reminded that he was
thought a cripple he again lapsed into
a horrible looking deformed soldier,
but this time 1t did not work. "Boss,"
he said, 'dat medsun you-all gimme
sho' cured me quick"

STREET POSTS TO GO
Melting of Old Statues for Use In Maxi
ing Munitions Is Also
Advocated.

London.-It has been suggested that
London should rid herself of a number
Of street posts and other u~nnecessary
iron ornaments in the interests of the
quick production of munitions. The
question of the guard posts is being
considered by the authorities, but a
number of these prove to be old can
non that have historical interest and
the historical associations are protest
ing against their removal.
1t has already been suggested that
the Albert Memorial would be of more
use in the shape Of munitions than in
it's present form, but a writer In the
Star goes further and suggests that
all the statues erected from the time
of George I to the Prince Consort
should be melted down and adds that
they would not be missed, because the
majority of them represent Germans

BRITON PRAISES "YANK DOC"
Officer of Essex Regiment Says Lieut..
c. T. Mccarthy Is Brave and
Beloved.

London, England.-An officer Of the
Ninth Essex regiment, in a letter writ
ten home, pays tribute to an American
officer serving with the regiment.
"Lieut. G. T. Mccarthy, medical Off
Ger of our regiment" says the letter,
sis one of the first Americans serving
in France to obtain the British mill
tary cross. He was attached to our
regiment last December. Our 'Yank
doc as we call him, Is n of the best
of men. He is loved by all the officers
and men.
HE Is strict, but never has anybody
been wounded or sick without the doc
tor going to him, no matter what the
Smelling or other conditions. He OBJ
tanned the military cross for magnifi-
cent work In the recent Albert fighting.
He went to the front with our regi-
ment in motor buses to meet the
Boche and during the worst period our
regiment has known he vas always in
front with his medical aid. At one
time he had his aid post in a quarry
right In our front line and always
where the fighting was worst he was
with the wounded. In slack times he
made tea and carried 1t to those who
could not make it themselves. Never
does he miss an opportunity Of per-
forming a kind act. Here's to our
