of the birth of triplets to Mrs. Thomas
Moran, who lives in Boise. The father
is a soldier in France. This couple
secured their marriage license in this

brides maiden name was Margaret
Baxter. This occurrence reminds us

MILL MEN ARE
TRUE BLUE
Boise Payette Co.'S Employees Demon
strate Loyalty by Deed and Word

The employees of the Boise-Payette
Lumber company's mill at Emmett
have certainly given fine demon
stration of loyalty during the last
few weeks. They have made a record
of which they may well be proud.
At the time the Loyal Legion Of
Loggers and Lumbermen was organ
lied at this place by Captain Farr Of
the signal service. practically every
employe, including the women, joined
the organization. That they are try
ing to live up to the ideals Of their
organization has been fully demon
strated the past few days. During
the Red Cross drive of last week the
mill workers subscribed an average OF
$3.50 per capita to the second war
fund, and furnished to the Council of
Defense the evidence necessary TO con-
Wet one of their number of disloyalty.
The report that they attempted to
lynch the party after he was turned
over to the sheriff is not correct. Mem
bers of the Council Of Defense have in
vestigated this charge and find that
while several autos followed the sher-
IFS car to the foot of Freezeout Hill,
there was no demonstration and no
disorder. The individuals in the cars
made no attempt TO conceal their
identity, but frankly acknowledged
their presence and stated they simply
wanted to make sure that the party
accused was safely in custody and on
his way Ii was members of The
Loyal Legion who notified the Coun-
Gil of Defense of the disloyal state
ments made and requested that hear
ing be ordered. 1t was these same
members and others who furnished
the evidence that resulted in the ac-
cused member of their organization
being turned over to the federal
authorities. Throughout the proceed
ings they acted in an orderly manner,
although they keenly felt the disgrace
of having one of their members
charged with disloyalty so soon after
taking the oath Of loyalty to the
United States.
The Council desires to publicly |
thank them for the assistance rendered
and commend them for the zeal and
loyalty they have shown.
