The great German offensive which

Ssomewhat discoursging to say the
BEAST. However, the meagre reports
which are now available are not to be
assolutely relied upon and it will be
uauy days before true report will be
xsceiysd. In the meantime keep cool,
kUping for the best and expecting the

attain maximuD efficiency in helping
Sar Boys over there and our allies
That the Germans are desperate and
sEs placing their hope for decisive
victory on the western front in this
great offensive, is readily understood
from the fact that fresh shock troops
and every ge neral of Importance have
been massed upon this section of the
kront in an effort TO break the English
zines. Their success up to the present
asme is of small Importance, inasmuch
ss 1t has resulted in the slaughter Of
EX,usands and thousands of the Ger
rsans while the losses of the allies is
comparatively small.
Unless the English lines give way
xzftirely, this offensive will spell de-

OUR CONSERVATION SONG.

Tune-Marching thro' Georgia
Words by Miss Jean Orr, Riden-
baugh Hall, University of Idaho.
Pass around the good old dish,
Well have another beam
Everybody scrape their plates,
BE sure you leave 'em clean:
Food, they say, will win the war;
We know what waste will mean,
Shouting the battle Cry of Hoover.
Chorus:
Hurrah, Hurrah, we're going to win
the day;
Hurrah. Hurrah, for Hoover knows
the way;
SO eat all the corn and beans you
want, and fish and poultry too,
But save, save, save the wheat and
meat, girls.
Course we know that it is hard
To let the candy go;
And nice white bread with butter
spread.
But think about your soldier friends,
It's easy then you know,
Shouting the battle cry of Hoover.
Chorus:
Hurrah, Hurrah, we know the cause is
right;
Hurrah. Hurrah, so tho We cannot
fight
Well send them all the food we can,
to do our little bit,
So save save, save the fats and sugar
girls.

manhood, it was the sacred duty OF the parents
to help it develop physically, mentally and spirit
ually. This inherent obligation OF parenthood
was ruthlessly and shamelessly disregarded
when the little one was deserted with the heart
less cruelty of savages getting rid of their off
spring.
The note which the parents pinned to the
baby is contemplate sentiment compared with
the moral obligation which was violated. Since
the child has been left to its own fate it is to be
hoped that its parents were of the calibre that
after all would have made them poor guardians
of the childs future. The destiny of the child is
in better hands now, than it would have been had
it's own parents directed its rearing. Child de-
serters have low moral conceptions. Persons
who adopt infants have hearts filled with love
and affection II this were not true they would
not take into their homes little baby that re-
CURES constant attention and care. They have
no chance of exploiting the little one. Their mo-
tive is not mercenary but humanitarian. Their
action is to be commended. An abysmal gulf
separates them from child deserters

Traffic Ordinance Violators

The police department is doing good work in
prosecuting violators of the traffic ordinance.
Too long have our streets been the racing
courses for reckless speedsters with utter dlsre-
gard for the lives Of pedestrians. Some of the
street corners are veritable death traps in which
pedestrians constantly run the risk of being run
down by speed demons and vioators of the right
and left rules Of the road.
North A street is particularly singled out Tor
reckless driving. Drivers turn into this thor
oughfare at high rate of speed, cut the corners
at frightfully hazardous angles and seem to be
amused at the efforts of pedestrians trying to
dodge automobiles
The only cure for this evil is a vigorous ap-
plication of the law. If the violators are given
heavy penalties or sent to the county jail fol
thirty days, their ardor to jeopardize the lives
of pedestrians will cool. No mercy ought to be
shown to these men and boys.
Richmond has had number of frightful au,
tomobile accidents, but the loss of life and the
injuries inflicted upon pedestrians has not been
a deterrent. Seemingly when man or boy lays
hands on the steering wheel of an automobile, he
believes that he is a law unto himself and that
the rights of thousands who walk have instantly
vanished This form of egotistical insanity can
be subdued only by rigorous police court prosecu-
ton.
