Board of Trade Bulletin

A perusal of the roster of the Board of Trade discloses who the real live wires of Dermott are. It is the only organization in the city whose purpose is the general upbuilding and devel- opment of Dermott and the surrounding country, and those of us who are not identified with it cannot be logically classified among the live wires of the town. Every business man, successful or otherwise. must admit that the old adage Tin unity there is strength" is entirely correct. It is true in every line of business. Cooperation is as neces- sary in corporation or partnership business, as is capital Cooperation and unity of strength are the prime factors of victory in battles. These two are the foundations of every successful enterprise. That is the WHY of the Board of Trade.
 Realizing the necessity of organiza- tion in the promotion of the financial, industrial and general welfare of this community body of business and pro- fessional men met some years ago and

THE LITTLE LAD

BY Agnes Lee Of the VigiIantes.
To me It's always the little lad
Afraid to speak his name.
But he was one Of the first to go,
When his heart received the flame.
He used to steal from the shadowy
room,
And over the lighted stair,
II dismal tales were being told.
But he won the Croix de Guerre.
He clutched my hand when the thun.
der broke.
He palsd at the lightning's glance.
But he met the Teutons face to face,
And fell with the sons Of France.

a boy who has offered his life in
defense of the traditions and princl-
pies of this grand old United States,
without a feeling of reverence, and
without, too, feeling that perhaps they
themselves have not done quite all
that it has been their duty to do.
Therefore, the committee trusts
that you and the good citizens OF
your community, as well as those IN
all parts of the county, will take an
interest in this matter and lend all
the assistance possible in the effort
being made to carry out the pur-
poses outlined in this letter. If each
person who can afford to do so will
contribute a dollar we feel that ample
funds will thus be provided for all
the flags and the expenses incidental
to making and keeping up the record.
You understand, of course, the
community flags are to be forwarded
to the various towns to which they
belong as soon as they are ready for
distribution, to be there owned and
kept and used in any way the citi-
zens of the community wish. 1t is
the plan to have the community flags
bear star numbers corresponding to
the star and record numbers of the
soldiers from each community on the
large flag to be kept at the county
seat, and from the records of the
committee the people of the various
towns may make an additional rec
ord to be kept by them, if they wish
to do SO.
Mr.. Fred Veatch, of Moscow, has
been made the treasurer, and all
moneys should be sent direct to him.
Acareful account will be kept of
all moneys and every cent accounted
for. The manner of raising the funds
will be left entirely to you and the
people of your community.
The committee would be pleased to
have any expression or suggestion
from you or any member of your
community regarding the matter,
and it wishes to assure you that any
member of the committee would be
pleased to confer with you and be
of any assistance possible.
Yours very truly,

SERVICE FLAG
DESIRED FOR
LATAH COUNTY
COMMITTEE OF CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE REPORTSfON FIND
INGS AND ACTIONS
COMMUNITY FLAGS, TOO
HOPES TO HAVE FLAG FOR EACH
COMMUNITY THAT HAS SENT
SOLDIERS TO WAR

A movement has been started here
to procure a Latah County Service
Flag and also a community service
flag for each town in the county, and
it is the desire of the committee that
you take charge of the matter in
your community.
In addition to the flag it is the
plan to have a record made and kept
of all army enlistments, including the
name, date and place of birth, date
of entry into the service, rank, and
all other data necessary to a complete
army record of the soldier. The rec
ord will be in charge of the committee
during the period of the war, and
will always be open to the public.
After the war it will be made a per-
manent record and kept with the
flag. This record will probably be
in the nature of a card index system,
with each card bearing the same num-
Der as the soldiers number on the
flag, and will be beneficial in the
compilation of a history of the boys
in the service, or of Latah county's
part in relation to the war, or any
other useful purpose.
The large flag, which will be prob
ably 10x18 feet in size, will be kept
at the county seat where it al be dis
on all public occasions and par
ticularly when, from time to time,
the various contingents of soldiers
will leave for the front.
Upon the flag will be a blue star
for each soldier from this county,
and when a soldier dies in the serv-
ice or is killed in action his star will
be replaced by a gold star.
Likewise, it is planned to have the
community flags, which shall be of
size and appropriate de-
contain a blue star for each
from the community in which
he previously resided, and in the
event of his death while in the serv-
ice or if he should be killed in action,
his star may be replaced by a gold
star by the committee of his home
town, to be appointed later.
This matter was first called to the
attention Of the people here by Hon
orable William M. Morgan in a let
ter to Mrs. Charles W. Shields of
Moscow, and we are informed that
the service flag is now being adopted
in many counties throughout the
state, and in many states through
out the Union; and wherever used
it is having splendid effect upon the
boys who are so nobly and fearlessly
answering their country's call, and
Judge Morgan has said, there is
nothing that will make a mar fight
so hard for his country as to know
the folks at home are thinking about
him. Moreover, we do not believe
there is a father or mother in Latah
having a son in the service
who would not like to see their boys
star upon such a flag; and to look
upon this flag would impress upon
is a deeper sense of duty and make
Of us better citizens, for but few
men can now look upon a service
bearing the announcement that
every star upon that flag represents

THE PEOPLES WAR

From Col. Roosevelt's speech at
Saratoga: Loyalty to the people of
the United States is the prime need.
This is the peoples war. 1t is not
the presidents war. 1t is not the
war of congress. 1t is the war of
he people of the United States. Our
whole hearted and individual loyalty
is lue to the country "a a whole,
and to every public servent disinter-
estedly and efficiently serves the
country. We demand loyalty of
this type; for it is the only loyalty
proper for self-respecting American
freemen.
THE events of the last year and
a half have shown the necessity of
electing a republican congress, to
support the administration at every
point where it acts vigorously in
prosecution of the war and in carry
ing out of proper world policy.
This country needs a congress that
will give the administration this kind
of vigorous support and yet will fear
lessly supervise and, when necessary,
investigate what is bein; done.
''Since the war began the republic
cans in congress have acted in the
spirit of the largest patriotism and
wholly without regard to questions
of politics. For the administration
measures desired for efficiently
carrying on the war they have fur
nished a larger percentage of sup
port than have the democrats, and
where the administration was wrong
the bulk of the republicans have ven
tured to withstand it and have stood
by the country, whereas the bulk of
the democrats have not done so, al
though there have been some con-
spicious and honorable exceptions 1t
is only by such conduct that We can
win the war and secure the right
kind of peace.
THE need in congress is for 10y
al Americans, far sighted, strong
willed, resolute, and who shall stand
steadfastly by the nation as a whole.

There is, first of all. fine picture workman

II will be some time before there will be found a
