sympathy and consolation.
II is a noble work and one which
lis deeply appreciated, as has been
amply proven by the touching and
heartfelt expressions Of gratitude
from The relatives of the sick and
dead students. This bread cast upon
the waters Of suffering and bereave-
ment will be returned many fold by
the increased esteem and affection
in which the State College and the
city of Pullman will be held by the
people Of Washington. As one man
from Seattle put it., My visit to
Pullman, the care given to my sick
son and the consideration and SYM
pathy extended to me and my wife,
have restored my faith in the kind
ness and goodness of my fellow

efforts as long as there is a single
student to be cared for or one anx-
ious or sorrowing visitor to be COM
forted or cOnsoled.

The name of Captain |. S. Collins
will long be held in grateful remem-
brance by the members of the S. A.
T. c. and the people of Pullman To
his untiring efforts, skill and cool
ness is due a large measure of credit
for the prompt and efficient methods
taken in handling the terrible influ-
enza epidemic. He displayed quail
ties which proved the truth of the
sentiment expressed by the poet;
The bravest are the tenderest."

THE COUNTY CLERKSHIP

The office of county clerk is an
important one and certain qualifica-
tons are absolutely essential to the
efficient administration of its duties.
The clerk must be honest, careful,
accurate, obliging and a good pen
man. A man might be honest and
obliging, but without the other quail
fications, he could not make an eff
ficient county clerk. n. E. Yelle
possesses all of these requisite quail
fications, while his opponent pos
sesses but part OF them. and there
fore the interests of the tax payers
demand that Mr.. Yelle should be
elected.
Not only is he the best qualified
candidate but he has pledged himself
to appoint as his deputy Mrs. Mary
p. Bellinger, the present county
clerk, who has had years of expert
ence in the office, is thoroughly ia
miliar with every detail Of the work,
and has proved herself to be one of
the most competent and obliging Of
ficials the county has ever had. She
is republican, but was first given
the position of deputy clerk by b F.
Manring, "a democrat. Her work was
so Satisfactory and efficient that she
was retained in the position by Mr..
Manring's republican successor and,
when he resigned. was appointed by
the county commissioners to fill the
vacancy.
Mr. Yelle has promised, if elected
to conduct the office at minimum ex-
pense consistent with maximum eff
ficiency and in order to carry out
that promise has offered the position
of deputy to Mrs. Bellinger, because
he considers qualifications to be Of
more importance than political af-
filiations, in the selection of his Of
flee help.
Having been an employer of N. e.
Yelle for over Is years. the writer
can unhesitatingly vouch for his in,
tegrity industry, accuracy and
worth. A man who has cheerfully
given his three sons to the service of
their country deserves the support of
the voters, when he is also fully
qualified for the office which he
seeks. Such man is N. e. Yeue
and he should be elected next Tues
day to the office of county clerk.

HOME Is WHERE THE BOY is IN
THIS WAR
by Bruce Barton

| visited a home where a service
Tag hangs; and while we ate we
talked of the boy who is over there.
Il wonder if he is cold tonight. >"
the mother said, Il wonder if he has
a place to warm himself and dry his
clothes; and something good to eat"
What wouldn't / give to be with
him, she said, and we were silent
knowing her heart.
But ! thought Of the Soldiers of
Friendliness who that very night
would crawl out across No Man $
Land to take chocolate and hot cot
fee TO that boy.
OF the huts with their warm fires
burning; of the great lecturers and
preachers and actors and motion pic
lures that are over there.
And | thought to myself: There
is a difference between this and
every other war. For when the BOYS
have marched away before, the in
fluence of their homes has stopped an
the front gate and could go no
farther.
But in this war ii follows the flag,
across the ocean, over the shell torn

THEY DIED BRANELY FOR THEIR
COUNTRY

The war has been brought very
close to the people of Pullman dur
ing the past few days. They realize
now, as never before, what it means
to have crowded hospitals and daily
death roll. These soldier students
have given their lives for their coun-
try just as truly as the boys who are
falling on the firing line in France,
and they have suffered and died with
a courage which challenges admira-
ton and proves their worth as fight
ing men. 1t requires a high type of
bravery to go over the top and face
the danger of shot and shell and
bayonet, but it requires an even
higher type of heroism to patiently
endure the agony and calmly con-
front the ending of a fatal disease.
This is the kind of courage which
these young men have displayed.
Take, for instance, the case of
Philip A. Melville of Burlington,
with whom the writer happened to
be brought in close contact From
the time he entered The hospital I'M
til death ended his suffering he never
uttered a word of complaint, but on
the contrary continually tried to
cheer up those about him. lie want
ed to live to fight for his country
and TO care for his widowed mother,
and no soldier in battle ever dis
played more courage or determine
ton than he in his struggle against
death, which continued for 8 hours
after the doctors said that the end
must come. When Captain Collins
bled him, as a last resort, Melville
tried to salute, although too weak to
raise his hand to his head When
he was gasping for air and it seemed
as if each labored breath must be
his last, he smiled into the faces OF
those who were tanning him and
whispered Stay with it, boys, and
| will" Never once did he falter or
show the slightest sign of fear or
weakness and when his overworked
heart gave out his will to live was
still unimpaired.
This splendid example of patient
endurance, iron determination and
high courage is but typical of the
qualities displayed by all of the 81
young soldiers at the State College,
who have answered their last roll
call. Many of them had not been in
the service long enough to receive
their uniforms, but they had already
become so imbued with the high
ideals and traditions of the army
that they strOye to suffer and die like
brave men, worthy of the colors
which they had so recently joined.
After observing at close range
such an exhibition of fortitude on the
part of these new recruits, one can
readily understand how it is that
our comparatively green troops in
France stopped the best veteran
divisions OF the German army in their
tracks and sent them staggering
back toward their own frontier.
