BLAINE COUNTY HAS
MADE GOOD ON WAR STAMPS

Blaine county has made good on
her War Savings obligation.
Blaine is the first county in Idaho
to report the purchase OF her full
quota Of $40 per capita OF War Saw
ings Certificates.
Blaine is 100 per cent on her 1918
war record.
What Blaine county is every coun-
~ in Idaho can be.
The word must be:
do not yield the honor of Idaho
at this late hour! Make good!''
Until Idaho has bought her full
quota of War Savings Certificates the
states record is incomplete.
Shall we end the year dishonored?
Impossibiei
At Chateau Thierry. in Argonne
Forest, on thousand flaming battle
fields Idaho's sons have done their
full duty
Shall we at home do less?
Those boys did not hesitate. They
never paused to argue. They did not
yield. In the face OF all they pressed
on and on and still on until the objec-
tive and the whole objective had been
achieved.
They died.
Hundreds of them died
Every hamlet. every city. every
county, every mountain valley in Ida
no mourns today for lads who died
for the honor OF Idaho
win Idaho dishonor their sacrifice
by failure to keep her just obligations
with the government that sent those
lads 70 the battle lines OF Europe?
We dare no think of such a thingi
We dare not think of one war obli-
cation unmet and in the same mo-
ment think Of those heroes who sleep
tonight In Flanders battlefields. We
dare not think OF the price they paid
and in that moment, think OF 1918
ending without Idaho's quota Of War
