pression-are In defeat.
On Monday morning President
Wilson issued the following procla-
nation:
my fellow countrymen:
''The armistice was signed this
morning. Everything for which
America fought has besn accomp-
lished.
''It will now be our fortunate duty
to assist by example, by sober friend
ly counsel and by material aid In
the establishment OF just democracy
throughout the world.
WOODROW WILSON"
The clauses in the armistice. as It
was handed to the German delega-
tion by Generalissimo Foch for the
appendix of their signatures were OF
such a nature as to leave no loop
hole and the terms that the Germans
accepted are SO stringent that it IL
impossible for the huns to renew the
conflict II they so desired and as a
military nation Germany Is SO weak
ened that no trouble Is to be feared
Of crowned heads ever trying to con-
quer the world or any part of 1t. The
Germans are more than edfeated: /:
theirs Is a lesson that will have its
weight upon any nation of her breed
that will try to overpower free peo-
pies for their own selfish interests.

BOYD FRAZER WAS
REGULARLY DISCHARGED
Parent and Friend of Boyd X. Frazer
Investigate Conditions at tho
Moscow, Idaho, School.

Owing to the circumstances con-
nected with the illness and death of
the late Boyd Frazer to those near
and dear to him, it appeared that the
young man had not received due care
at the Moscow School and that he
had been turned out while in very
sick condition. On the advise of
friends. the father, r. S. Frazer, ac-
companied by A. c. Alexander, made
trip to Moscow last week to inves-
tigete the conditions thero.
On their arrival at Moscow they
were met by DIR. Lindley, president of
the University, Hhd Capt. Felkner,
commandant, who explained all the
steps required of the young men en-
tering the school and who insisted
that trip of investigation be ma6e
of tho entire school which was done,
and conditions found exactly as these
gentlemen had explained.
In the matter of Boyd Frazer 1t was
shown that the yourg man YVES dis
charged from the service on October
oath, for some minor physical dis
ability. but as the necessary blanks
were not at hand he could not be re-
leased at that time but had. to re-
main over until the morning of the
25th. and after receiving els dis
charge on that date was too late TO
make his train for Jerome, necessi-
tating his staying over until the
morning of the 26th On the morn
ing of the 25th, the young man re-
ported to the commandant for final
discharge. but said nothing rs to his
feeling i'll. and as his illness was
not detected he was released Had
the young man reported i'll, II
would have been impossible for him
to have left the school as the require
ments there would have put him in
the hospital for treatment. In not
reporting his illness. it can readily
be seen that the young man was
homesick end. not feeling we'll, was
determined to return to his parent.
Too much credit car not be given

TO HAVE FANCY SAND BAGS.

Women's wells and the tapestries
of private homes are to be utilized in
the Holy Land for the manufacture
of sandbags for the Turkish trench
es, according to the Constantinople
correspondent of the Geneva Trib-
une. The Turkish authorities in Pal
estine and Syria have informed the
local officers of Beirute and other
towns, the correspondent says, that
100000 sandbags are required in
the trenches at once for defensive
purposes. Inasmuch as sacks and
cotton cloths are lacking, "all silks
and tapestries in dwellings are be-
ing commandeered, and soldiers IN
Syria have been told by their SUI
periors they must remove the wells
from any woman whom they may en-
counter in the streets.

THAT cAN'T.eo-oN FEELING.

There are very few people, l guess,
who haven't been gripped by the
can't-go-on feeling. There are, very
few people who haven't felt that they
we're fast coming to the end Of
everything, writes Margaret E. Sang
ster, in the Christian Herald. Ma
poleon must have felt it as he strug-
gled through the SHOWS of Russia
with a suffering, doubling army
struggling after. Washington, freez-
ing at Valley Forge, might-if only
for a minute-have wondered if the
game were worth the candle! Lin
coin, with his country divided and
Staying itself, must have known his
dark, hopeless dawns when he was
forced to say, in the anguish Of his
soul, 'I can't finish my task It's
too much for mew Helen Keller,
Florence Nightingale, Jane Addams
"a score of heroic fgures-have
doubtless felt the touch of discour-
and defeat. And yet all of
them made themselves go on-re-
fused to admit their inability to play
the game of life!

URGES USE OF PAPER SKIRTS
Economist Would Also Have Women
Wear Wooden Shoes, as Measure
to Help Finance the Great War.

That it is time for the women Of
the country to cut loose from silks
and satins, do away with eccentrici-
ties of fashion and sally forth in pa
per skirts and wooden shoes to help
finance the war was the thought pro-
mulgated at a "war finance con-
gress" by DR.. Simon N. Patten, for
mer professor at the University of
Pennsylvania, observes the Phila-
delphia Record. Along the same line
of reasoning the men Of the country
should forswear purple spats and all
things which tend to adQrn rather
than have a utilitarian value.
When Doctor Patten declared for
paper skirts for women one woman
in the audience was heard to say
quite audibly, "Does the professor
forget that sometimes it rains?" One
of the economists present thought it
would not be a bad idea if the people
would cut loose with their old -four
sacks and make them into UNDER
clothes or utilize burlap for making
clothes for those who could not af-
ford to pay the high price of tailors'
bills.
Doctor Patten said the women of
Germany were already wearing pa
per skirts and wooden shoes and by
other similar methods had cut down
the living costs of the nation until
only 40 per cent of the nations in
come was necessary for domestic pur-
poses and 60 per cent of the peoples
incomes could be used for carrying
on the physical burdens of the war.
