1t is undoubtedly important to take
cognizance of the clothes that were
invented for the South. They were
put out in a tentative manner because
of chaotic conditions that the war
brought about not only in travel, but

want these clothes except for AuguJ-

S. A. T. C. MEN WANT
USED NEWSPAPERS

The Star-Mirror has been asked by
DR.. G. NJ Miller, of the University of
Idaho to call the attention of the people
of Moscow to the fact that there are
hundreds of young men in the quaran-
tine at the university who have not seen
a newspaper and do not yet know the
terms that President Wilson laid down
for the Germans in order to obtain peace.
DR.. Miller asks that the people leave
newspapers that they have read at the
Corner Drug store every day before five
o'clock when messenger will be sent
for them They want Spokane, Boise
and other newspapers as well as the
local papers. The Star Mirror will send
its Idaho exchanges there as many of
them are printed in the home towns of
the S. A.. T. C. men Will the liberal
people of Moscow please see that papers
they have read (and magazines, too,)
are sent to the Corner Drug store daily
before five o'clock to be sent to the
boys? 1t means little to you. 1t means
much to them.

Now that the prospect of peace seems
bright for the near future there may be

such gigantic scale and why the public
is, asked to oversubscribe by 50 per cent

prevail as soon as peace is declared will

period of greatest possible usefulness for
all war work organizations will be at
the dangerous time of relaxation when
there is some let-down in military disci-
pine and when the armies are being
demobilized to come home 1t will be
necessary then as never before to safe
guard the boys at the front and sec to
It that they are protected from tempta-

An enormous educational program has
been undertaken by the relief organiza-

STARTS MONDAY
LATAh COUNTY ASKED TO RAISH
IT'S QUOTA IN FIRST THREE
DAYS OF DRIVE

On Monday next Latah county will
enter upon the task of doing its assigned
part in the greatest war relief drive ever
undertaken, when the country at large
will be asked to raise a sum in excess
of $170,5000D for the use of the seven
organizations that comprise the United
War Work campaign These organiza-
tions are the Y. M. C. A., the Y. w. c..
A. the Salvation Army, the Library as
sociatior. the knights Of Columbus, the
Jewish Welfare board and the War
Camp Community service. Latah's quota
is placed at a minimum of $4,000, with
the plea that on account of the prospect
of speedy demobilization, the sum be
oversubscribed about so per cent.

drive that the declaration of peace will
bring with it the greatest chance as we'll

whom will be responsible for raising the
sum for which his precinct has been
assessed The precinct captains will find
their communities already familiar with
the great and valuable work Of the re-
lief organizations through the publicity
constantly appearing in newspapers and
magazines, and through numerous letters
received from the boys who have derived
benefit from one or other of the welfare
The American public has
become by this time accustomed to the
practice of giving money when its gov
ernment asks for it, and besides, there
is a very strong feeling that everything
possible should be done by the folks at
home for the boys at the front who are
making every sacrifice that the rest Of
us be safe and happy.
In order that the burden of raising
$4,000 may be equitably distributed
among the residents of Latah county,

When the messengers with the auto

hospital to get the fruit, one of the
young soldiers said: cit certainly
pays to advertise. l will sign any
testimonial, no matter how strong you
may make it, that The Star Mirror
certainly reaches the people and gets
prompt results. We certainly feel
grateful to the paper, the two little
girls and the people of Moscow for
their generosity and kindness to the
sick, we'll and convalescent soldiers.
In addition to those who contributed
upon solicitation of the two little
girls, the following brought fruits,

BRICK PLANT INCREASES
OUTPUT CAPACITY

Our progressive brick plant is put
ting in a new kiln. This new kiln
is a small one, burning about $4,000
bricks at time, compared to the two
larger ones already established which
hold about $4,000 brick each at one
burning. The smaller kiln is being
built so car load at time can be
rushed out, as the orders often come
for Just one car of handmade bricks
of a special pattern. A number of
orders have come from the govern
ment recently.
All summer the plant has run a
full crew day and night part of the
time, which means 15 to 18 men at
the plant at Moscow and five men
at the pit of the clay deposit near
Joel.
