MUST FILE EXPENSE ACCOUNTS
Defeated As Well As Successful Can
didates Must Make Accounting OF
Expenditures.

The law requires all candidates for
office, whether successful or not, to
file an itemized statement of expendi-
lures made in their primary campaign.
There are penalties attached for fail
ure to comply with this provision. one
of which is to debar candidates, even
though nominated. from holding the
offices for which they were named.

RED CROSS NOTES.


We have some very patriotic boys
in American Falls. among them being
Bob Voight, Harold Crowley. Russell
Porter and Harold French. These
lads staged a miniature county fair
and from their various sports and sale
of premiums realized IS cents which
has been turned into the Red Cross
funds. The boys realize that it all
helps and that this will make several
pads or bandages to help some wound
ed soldier.

France, August s, 1918. Mr.. Barber
Dear Sir-I have gotten to where the
mail will follow me at last so l will
give you my address. l had my sis
ter, Mrs. Upham, sending the Press
to me because we we're only a short
time in a place and it sure looks good
to me to read about everybody at
home.
This is a pretty country over here
but the people are so backward to us.
Probably because we cannot under
stand them.
Tell your reporter hello for me. l
sure will appreciate your paper. l
will close for this time and get ready
for work.

LETTERS FROM POWER
COUNTY SOLDIERS.

Monitor, France, August is, 1918.
Mr. Barber. Dear Friend will drop
you a few lines to let you know that l
have received three copies of the
Press and sure was glad to get them.
They we're long time finding me but
they were news to me. One was dat
ed June 2S, July and 5, so you see
it takes a long time to get mail when
we first arrive on this side. We were
moving most of the time but l am To-
Gated for a while. l am the only one
of our company that is in this camp.
Our company has been sent out on de-
tail work and we are scattered all
over the country. l see some of the
boys every day as | am working on
the same work as they are only they
have different territory. / am driv-
ing a span of the. American long cared
horses as the French call the mules.
Some of the boys are driving trucks.
The people over here are three hun
dred years behind the times. They
use one-hOrse rigs and two-wheel
carts. 1t looks so queer for these
people to work two or three horses
on a two-wheel cart and work them
SluSit nle
The camp is not far from the bay
and it does not get very hot as we get
the cool sea breeze.
There are several of the Power
county boys that are close to where
am but l have not seen any of them
yet as l have only been here a week.
There were three of the Power county
boys in the same camp that our com
pany was in but l did not see any of
them while l was there. Last even
ing there was a lady that sung at the
Y from Texas and one of the boys in
camp found out that it was his cousin.
| will close for this time.
Yours truly,

L. 5. Air Fighters Doing Great Work

I Ns Nj NANaA WV ne
Twelve pilots stood in a semicircle
around a desk on which was spread a
large map.
The push starts tomorrow said
the colonel. I'VE have allotted to us
this zone. 1t is our job to wreck
stations, trains and bridges in there" "
The pilots saluted and filed out. By
9 o'clock the next morning two trains
had been derailed. one ammunition
train was on fire and still exploding,
and two railway stations lay in ruins.
The infantry. thanks, in part. to the
work of the airmen in hampering the
movements of the German reserves,
had advanced a mile on a ten-mile
front.
The official aviation report for the
day said: "One of our machines is
missing; two German machines were
destroyed"

France. August Z, 1918. Editor of
American Falls Press. Dear Sir-As
have little time to spare will drop
you a few lines to let you know how
much l appreciate your kindness in
sending me the Press while l was
stationed at Camp Lewis.
Everything is going all right over
here at present. There is quite a
difference between this country and
the good old U. S. but at that it is
very interesting at times. There is
one other Falls boy in my company
named Leishman. I saw Roll Evans
last week and he says he is getting
along fine. We don't get very much
mail now and | haven't received a
Press since l left the states. l wish
you would send my paper to the ad-
dress given below Again thanking
you for past favors, l am.
