Another sort of letter occasionally

any men in the American expedition

FROM SHEEP TO SOLDIER.
kooskia Women Make Their OWr
Yarn From Raw Wool.

Kooskia, in the Lewiston, Idaho, dis
trict, can perhaps lay claim to dis
tinction not enjoyed by any other Red
Cross auxiliary in the United States
and from the Kooskia branch will
soon be shipped knitted articles that
are entirely home made.
Shortly after the Kooskia women
organized Red Cross auxiliary, they
were visited by a farmer and stockman
of the Kooskia section who proposed
to donate wool as it came from the
sleeps back in the event it would be
of use to the ladies. This proposal re-
suited in a conference of Kooskia wo-
men and the result was the organiza-
tion of force for washing, carding,
dying and spinning so that the Koos-
kia women are producing an unusually
fine quality of yarn for all knitted gar
ments that will be turned out by that
auxiliary.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT
LEAVE At THE LIBRARY
KIND OF BOOKS WANTED-ALL
CITIZENS ARE ASKED TO
CONTRIBUTE.
Capital ;so,ooo.oc

Two million books are needed by the
library war service of the American
Library association to furnish reading
matter to soldiers and sailors in the
camps in America, on board naval
vessels and over seas.
A big nation wide book drive is to
be conducted during the week Of
March IS to rs and every person is
invited to contribute books from his
private collection.
Many kinds of good books are want
ed 1t is clear. however, that books
(which served past generations and
have no message for the present day
people, would not be useful. Nor will
books for girls engage the serious at
tention of our warriors, but it is in
teresting to note that non fiction cir
culates in camps as much as fiction.
Kinds Of Books Wanted.
This war is so full of new engin-
eering and technical features that men
seeking promotion have to study
mathematics and technical subjects.
City trained youths are, for the first
time, in charge of horses and country
trained boys are figuring trajectories.
This diversified training calls for
many trade and technical books.
The standard books of poetry, es-
says, drama, philosophy, biography
and history are all useful. The pres
ence of many men of foreign extrac-
ton, not skilled in English, makes a
demand for boys books.
Send all books to your nearest pub
lie library, marked Library War Ser
vice." where they will be sorted and
shipped to headquarters in Washing
ton, d. c.

THE STAMP OF SUCCESS.

He bought a little thrift stamp, then
He bought a little bond,
And next he bought a house and lot
Beside lily pond.
He bought a pianola, and
He bought. a diamond pin,
A flivver, and portable
Garage to keep it in.
He also bought city block,
A yacht, limousine,
With two twin chauffeurs up in front
Dolled up in Russian green;
A railroad and a factory,
And steamship line, for so
Do fortunes in the U. s. A.
From little thrift stamps grow.

| What you see in a comb of honey
is a pound of perfect sweetness en-
cased in wax structure that is tri-
umph of architectural engineering
| You pay twenty-five or thirty cents
for this, take it home, spread 1t on
your bread to tickle your palate and
help fill your physical fuel bin, and
What you don't see in this comb OF
honey is little army of bees work.
ing harder than Trojans ever worked,
sucking the ambrosia from clover
blossoms.
! Your pound of honey contains 1000
grains of sugar Each clover blossom
provides about one eighth of grain,
so this pound represents the sweet
fruitage of $4,000 clover heads.
But the clover head is composed of
about sixty florets or flower tubes. To
extract the hidden sweet the bee must
sixty separate operations on each
flower.
If one bee contracted to gather a
pound of honey, that bee would have
to explore 100000 of these tiny tubes
to secure the material. Allowing five
seconds for each exploration and
twelve hours to a day, it would take
this bee some four hundred days to
produce a pound.
And this would represent only the
gathering of the honey not the time
required for building the wax case and
storing the sweet stuff.
But there never yet was hive with
just one bee to each comb.
Nature commands pooled effort.
Hundreds of bees to each comb
make a comparatively quick and easy
operation of what would be an impos-
sible task for one bee working alone.
So what we do not see in the comb
the greatest of success makers--co-
operation.
On every side nature flaunts this
lesson in mans face
The seed itself is nothing.
Sun, soil and moisture must cooper
ate with the latent germ in order to
produce plant life.
The solidest rock is only cooperat-
ing atoms.
The strongest man is weak alone
Only by working with others or win
ming others to work with him can he
achieve worth while results.
The million men now training to
fight under our flag in France couldn't
gain a foot Of Teuton territory If they
went to war one by one.
Cooperating, they can turn the tide
in favor of freedom.
The biggest business Is bound for
failure if its workers do not cooper
ate.
1t is machine whose parts do not |
work together. It may run for a while |
IN its own momentum, but it is headed |
or the dump heap.
To cooperate is to join forces and
more. 1t is to join hearts
is well as hands, and slip little soul
II the bargain
Not to cooperate is to court loneli-
less, life-rust and loss.
The abe. of success is this-Be
Bee!
Cooperate!

TRADE WITH THE ENEMY.
Red Cross to Send Letters, Food and
Money to Prisoners in Germany.

The American Red Cross has been
granted license by the war trade
board to trade with the enemy" This
is how 1t came about: The privilege
Of sending letters, food and money to
American prisoners of war in Germany
has been granted exclusively to the
Red Cross by the German govern
ment Germany demands return
for this privilege. She asks the Red
Cross to act as the medium through
which German fathers and mothers
can send WORD from home" or a
remembrance to sons confined in Am
erican prison camps. This, in. sense
constitutes trading with the enemy"

cessibie the outstanding facts con-
corning German frightfulness in the
reports OF leading episodes Of the war.
such as the invasion of Belgium, the
Lusltania destruction, the submarine
campaign against neutrals, and similar
incidents.
What Poilu Means.
"Poilu," the word used affectionate-
~ by the French to designate their
soldiers in the present war, is shown
to have originated from the French
word poll meaning hair. 1t is sup
posed that the term poilu came to be
Iapplied to French soldiers because
they were in the trenches and did not
shave as the British soldiers did.
"Bolsheviki' is shown in the CYCLIC
pedia to be Russian word meaning
belonging to the majority" The
Bolsheviki were originally the left or
radical wing of the Russian socialist
democratic party. In 1905, at the time
when the split in the party occurred,
the radicals, led by Lenine, were in the
majority and hence called themselves
bolsheviki.
An abbreviated history of the Rus
sian revolution, from the overthrow of
the car, through the Kerensky regime,
and the bolsheviki control, to the
opening of separate peace negotiations
with Germany, is contained in the cy-
clopedia.
Chronology of Events.
Added to the alphabetical arrange
ment of general war facts, there is
presented chronology Of the princi-
llpal events of the war, from June 20,
1914, when the Archduke Francis Fer
Idinand was murdered at Serajezo, to
December 20, 1917. when the British
national labor conference approved the
continuation of the war for aims sim
liar to those defined by President Will
son.
The war cyclopedia presents a map
in colors under the caption why Ger
many Wants Peace Now The map
delineates the pan German plan as
realized by war in Europe and in Asia.
THE central powers have population
of about 146,5O0,000 The occupied
territory in Belgium, northern France,
Poland, Lithuania, Courland, Serbia,
Montenegro and Roumania possesses
a population Of 40,500,000. Hence Ger

live 1S7,000,00O people, The map
