Child Desertion

Child desertion is a heinous crime. No af-
fectionate sentiments penned in note tackled to
the clothing of the founding can protect moth
er against the charge of being heartless nor pal
late the cruelty of the father who forsakes his
offspring. Child desertion is relic of barbar-
ism.
Even if the child is accepted by persons who
will visit upon it the best kind of affectionate
care, the sin committed by it's parents cannot be
condoned. The sympathy of the community is
extended to the little one and every one hopes
that it's future will be bright and happy one.
The parents will rue their decision in turning
their child adrift. They had no reason to be-
lieve that kind hearted persons would be willing
to adopt it. They we're willing to let the little
one disappear perchane fall into the hands of
reckless foster parents, and be reared amid
squalor and crime. Only mother with cal
loused heart and a father devoid of the last
iota of parental love would permit child to run
the hazard of this fate. The community looks
upon them with contempt and denounces them
with vehement condemnation.
The abandoned baby was not responsible for
its presence in this world It's parents owed the
child every bit OF protection and training they
could muster. Until the baby matured into

Adapting Ourselves to War Conditions

The boys in France and in the training
camps give twenty-four hours Of the day to pa
triotic service. They are on duty in sunshine
and rainy weather. in summer and winter, in vic
tory and defeat. They have no time limit for
work. no snaps and soft jobs are at their dis
posal They work year in and out, jeopardizing
their lives at every turn.
Gradually the truth is dawning on the non
combatants that they owe duty to their govern
ment which they are not fulfilling in 100 per-
cent perfect manner. Their grumblings against
investments in war securities and subscribing to
war relief measures are turning into a realiza-
ton of the fact that it is high privilege to be
able to cooperate in patriotic movements.
But not only in this phase is change to be
noticed Persons who have complained because
the normal conduct of their homes and business
es have been changed are now gladly accommo-
dating themselves to the new conditions.
This principle must be carried out to its last
extreme. War times bring changed conditions.
Every branch of business, industry and trans
portation, as well as every man engaged in them
either stakeholder or an employee, is face to
face with exigency radically different from
anything experienced heretofore.
How shall it be met? If all of us in stiff
necked arrogance refuse to unbend and in into-
Grant mood insist on the rights and privileges
we enjoyed before the great war upset the whole
industrial and commercial machinery we will not
solve the problem but retard the process of re-
adjustment. A patriotic willingness to be open
minded to changed conditions, to share the bur-
den equally. to patiently bear the added discom-
future and strive until the problem is worked out,
is the right attitude to assume.
This correct mental attitude as we'll as the
moral motive back of it must be developed We
see it's fruition In the conduct of the big men of
the nation and community. We find the men of
small vision unable or unwilling to grasp it,
creating dissatisfaction and unrest by their I'M
necessary complaints and by their failure to en-
ter into the true cooperative spirit of the war;
the result being that the solution is being delay
ed and hampered.
If every man would believe himself person.
ally responsible and decided factor in bringing
about helpful relationship instead of an mimic
al one, the commercial and industrial world
would soon adjust itself to the new conditions

Look at the Hat Cords.

A military man can Immediately
tell to what division a soldier belongs
by glancing at the cord on his hat,
but to the average citizen the color of
the hat cord denotes little or nothing.
1t is an interesting feature to be IA
miliar with, especially now when so
many soldiers are seen all over the
country, and anyone who takes the
trouble to learn the following list will
be rewarded by being able to satisfy
his own curiosity respecting any sol
der he happens to see without having
to ask questions: A cord Of light
blue signifies that the wearer belongs,
to the infantry; red denotes artillery;
yellow, cavalry; buff, quartermasturs
corps; orange and white, signal corps;
red and white, engineers corps; red
and black, ordnance; black and white,
field clerk; maroon and white, medi-
cal corps; black and gold, officers
silver and black, adjutant generals
clerk; green, instructor home guards,

GRADING WHEAT

State Grain Inspector r. ]. Leth
1 is responsible for the statement that
there are very few grain firms in the
| state who have the necessary equip
ment for properly grading wheat. In
most cases neither the farmer nor
the dealer is assured of the correct
grade. The farmer is not the only
loser in this game, however. Much
wheat is purchased on too high a
grade and the dealer stands the loss.
Possibly such losses and gains may
compensate for each other to- the
dealer, but not so to the individual
farmers. State grading is the only
recourse.
Mr.. Leth further stated that bet
ter service could be given If the rules
for submitting wheat samples were
always followed. - common diff
ficulty Is the submission of too small
sample. Three pints is the small
est sample it is possible to grade.
The grade determined by the state
grain inspector becomes binding on
both buyer and seller only when the
sample is jointly selected by them.
The law demands that sample be
submitted for the official state grade
upon deman of either party con-
cerned.
State wheat grading assures every
farmer Of the proper grade on his
wheat II he so desires. Likewise It
protects the dealer from unknowingly
buying wheat at higher grade than
is justified.
The Discount on Mixed and Smutty
Wheat
Advises just received from the
Chicago office of the food administra-
ton grain corpration convey the fol-
lowing information: Smutty wheat
is discounted from to IA cents per
bushel. Mixed wheat is discounted
from 3 to cents per bushel depnd-
ing on the kind of mixture and the
percentage of mixture. Using the
above information as a basis we are
presenting below a table which re-
presents approximately the discount
you may expect of wheat coming un-
der this class.

(Signed) PAUL H. ALFRED.
A good many people have given the
league organizers deferred checks,
and scores of farmers, we are told
hundreds of them, are stopping pay
ment on the checks. The league peo-
pie have this advantage over the
farmers, that 1t is crime to write
a check In that way and put 1t in cir
culation, and the farmer, rather than
take the chance of being prosecuted
for doing that, may let 1t come thru
and redeem it. But Mr.. Alfred de-
cided to stand for prosecution If
necessary, rather than let these peo-
pie fleece him by false pretenss. If
reports are correct, and prosecution
were demanded by the league for
every check that is stopped, there
will be congested condition of the
court dOckets this fall and a good
many farmers will be in court telling
just what the organizers said to get
them to write the checks. According
to statements already made on these
matters, the organizers would be TAX
ing to the woods to escape the federal
officers. 1t SENS that in talking to
the farmer they have told how they
were going to enact special legisla-
ton to benefit him, and in talking to
laboring men they have told how
they were going to fix things so the
farmer as well as others, would have
to employ only union labor, and un-
ion labor would be so organized that
theyw0uld receive 900 a day for
farm work of eight hours. They
tried to put that program across in
North Dakota with I. w. w. labor
leaders handling the labor market,
and nearly succeeded for while.
Their method was to blow up or burn
thresher outfits, where farmers tried
to operate with non-union labor.
The same plan was introduced to
some extent in North Idaho and the
Polous country two years ago and the
destruction of forty-seven thresher
outfits have been traced to the I. w.
w. element. Thoughtful men are
fast coming to see that the methods
of the Non-partisians smack consider
ably of the I. w. w. methods, and
very emphatically in this, that if any
man in business expresses the opinion
that they claim to be, or that they
are arraying one class against an
other, they Immediately furnish
proof Of the fact by knocking against
his business to damage him all they
can, and that is exactly what the l. 4
w. w. and the Bolsheviki are teach
Ing and doing. The main body of
the league members is right and hon.
est in their purpose, but the leaders
and the radical fellows are tipping
Of their purposes. If the main body
will take away the present leaders
and cut out the l. w. w. principles
and methods they will win a fine ar
'ay of friends everywhere.

CHURCHES NOT HARD TO FILL
Religious Edifices In England Where
the Congregations Are Of Neces-
sity Rather Small.

There are many churches that at
tract attention by their size and grand
eur. There are few that are remark
able by reason Of their smallness and
simplicity. One of these is at Lulling-
ton, Sussex, England.
1t is a primitive and quaint stone
building with roof Of red tiles and
tiny weatherboarded turret at its west
end. This miniature church is only 16
feet square.
Its pulpit is pew with paneled
sides and door and the furniture is Of
the plainest. Five narrow, diamond.
paned windows give light to the inte-
rior. When the church is full 80 per-
sons are gathered together.
Only little larger is the meeting
house at Crawshawbooth, village
near Burnley. 1t is known as the
Friends meeting house and is covered
with ivy and surrounded by we'll
cared-for burial ground. Inside may
be seen half dozen oak benches that
could, If necessary, accommodate go
persons, The attendance is rarely more
than six. ~, .:ssS A--~-
Somewhat smaller than this chapel
Is one that has been called the shrine
of Quakerism. 1t Is in the hamlet Of
Jordans, in Buckinghamshire. Thither
In June Of each year come Quakers
from all parts, for here lie the remains
OF William Penn. If this were not
enough to make the place interesting,

ing the neighborhood' in which Milton

CRITICIsEs SENATOR NUGENT

The New Freedom, the Democratic
organ for the party in Idaho, makes
the following comments on the con-
duct Of Senator Nugent and the Nom
partisan league:
The excuse is made for Senator Nu-
gent that II he had not stood for the
Non-partisan endorsement and for
the league taking over the Democra-
tic party's name and authority and
naming the state ticket he would
have been defeated in the primaries.
This is true! The Democrats of Idaho
would have named James H. Hawley
as the party's nominee IL it had not
been for the invasion Of the party.
by the leaguers. Will a nomination
received in such manner and at such
a tremendous cost to the party be
worth anything to Senator Nugent.
We think not, and in this opinion the
word we receive from over the state
from loyal party Democrats upholds
our views.
The Democratic party in Idaho was
basely betrayed by John F. Nugent
when he accepted the nomination for
United States senator by the Nom
partisan league. This endorsement
Of Senator Nugent gave hte league a
standing which is otherwise would
not have possessed in the primaries
and enabled the league to name the
state ticket, leaving the Democrats
Of Idaho without state ticket of
their own choosing to vote for. The |
action Of Senator Nugent is unpre-
cedented in the ANNALS of American |
political history and brands him as |
