A PATRIOTIC MAN
MAKES APPEAL TO
PATRIOTIC PEOPLE

COLVILLE. February Especial to
the Colville Examiner from Hugh Wad-
dell chairman for Stevens county OF
the war savings committee) The power
OF the press as molder of public
opinion for the benefit of the whole
United States has often been illustrated.
The press in its appeal to the public in
which 1t urges action by the citizens of
the country Is always listened to and
is always successful. As chairman Of
the war savings committee for Stevens
county I am asking you to appeal to
the people of Stevens county to buy
thrift stamps and war savings stamps
and to continue to invest in these
stamps to the limit of their ability
during the remainder of this year.
want to ask you to appeal to all min
listers of the gospel to include in their
sermons from time to time n talk on
the war savings plan. and to the en-
ployes of all stores, Offices factories,
war savings societies. and to the MEM
bers of the patriotic and defense
leagues. ! also want to ask you to ap-
peal to every patriotic family to be-
come 100 per cent war savers. This Is
no children's game, although the chill
dren have been doing magnificent work
In It, The share of thrift and war sav-
ings stamps for Stevens county is $685.
24O, which we must raise II we wish to
escape the stigma of being unwilling to
lend our dollars while our sons are CIV
Ing their lives. The government must
have the money and offers a good rate
of interest and the lest security In the
world. l am sure 1t is only necessary
to call the attention OF the people OF
Stevens county to their patriotic duty
to have 1t done. May not the war saw
ings committee for the great state of
Washington depend upon the influence
Of the press of Stevens county in this
time of national peril?

viewpoints.
The Redpath-Horner people have
forwarded to the local chairman ad.
vance copies of the 1918 chautauoua.
From the standpoint of patriotism
and music this bids to be one of the
greatest programs ever put before
the American people by way of a
chautauqua.
Captain Fallon. an army hero. will
lecture on the subject, Fighting
Through He'll" The captain carries
fifteen wounds. In one of the engage
ments in which he participated. an
Australian regiment entered with
900 men and came out with forty
three. The captain. an invalided vet
eran of the trenches has served o
the New York Herald as literary edi-
tor.
Lieutenant Lougher is now in
France. but will return in time for the
season. He is an experienced lectur-
er. Mrs. Warren, an army nurse in
the line hospital. will tell the story
from different viewpoint Sergeant
Marr and the Trench musicians will
bring the story of the trenches in
song.
Cimeras band will be one of the
big features. Madam Helene Cafar-
ell, a celebrated Italian dramatic so
loist, accompanies the band.
The Ladies' Regimental orchestra
comes with a stirring program of pa
triotic. military music. DR. Ira Ian
dreth. one of Americas greatest plat
form men. will be present Montra-
vile Wood. the inventor. too, is com
ing. One of the big features will be
the presentation of The Climax" a
play that made tremendous success
during a long New York run These
are only few of the big features
of the coming chautauqua A fun
program will soon be presented.

to treat for this pest is to dip.

this Is a practical and economical me
