WAR WORKERS
BUSY ON Drive
CAMPAIGN PROGRESSING WELL
STATES COUNTY CHAIRMAN
w. LON JOHNSON
Extend Time for School Children in
Victory Boys and Girls United
War Work Campaign

The armistice is signed. The
power of right has again overcome
a temporary reign of most ruthless
might The allied forces have ac-
complished their purpose, and kaiser
bill has signed on the dotted line and
gone to the country to reflect on his
actions which have decimated a once
great nation. The Stars and Stripes
still lead the procession of civiliza-
ton, and Americans have now become
citizens of a united world
But this victory has been made
possible by the boys in khaki who
have been taken from our homes and
sent overseas to personally grapple
with the Hun and wrest from him the
right of the world to live in peace.
To these boys our hearts should go
out in thanksgiving, and our definite
degree Of thanksgiving can be shown
in the manner we respond to this
weeks campaign for war work funds
to make his life tolerable
Contributions to this war work
fund will show our real affection for
our soldiers who have made victory
possible. The victory is worth
something from you. Will you dem
onstrate that YOU are worth while
in this victory?
Already Over the Top
The United War Work campaign
is progressing splendidly in this coun-
ty according to the county chairman.
Springdale with a quota of $1,000,
and White Lake with quota of $3.50,
went over the top the first day. 1t is
thought that others finished their
drive early, but these were the only
reports which had been receivd up to
Thursday.
The Victory Boys and Girls, under
the leadership of Prof E. f. Elliott
as county chairman, were organized
this week over the county. In Col
vile Miss Martha Ide and Carl Ferry
had charge of this work, and found
the boys and girls enthusiastic over
the idea Of pledging their earnings
to provide comforts for the soldiers
and sailors.
Colville began her campaign in an
informal way Monday during the big
peace celebration. Some of the Red
Cross ladies took donations on big
flag which they carried through the
crowd In the evening after Rev.
Garver's address, solicitors signed up
large number of pledges among
those who had come to the celebration
bonfire. Wednesday afternoon the So
licitors began simultaneous can
vass of the business and residence
districts. No figures are yet avail
able, but the committee feels certain
that the quota will be reached
Rev. j. S. Bell, Rev. Geo. f. Kline,
ard Mrs. f. B. Goetter form the local
committee. J. ID. Casey is treasurer
and Atty. II. Wade Bailey secretary.
White Lake showed it's patriotic
feeling by its eagerness to give, and
much credit is due Eric Carlson, Mrs.

SCHOOL REOPENS MONDAY
AFTER FLU VACATION

In accordance with instructions of
the health officers, the Colville school
will reopen next Monday morning.
Should any individuals know of pu-
pills who live out of town and whom
the ordinary means of publicity are
slow in reaching, they would bestow
favor on all concerned by notifying
such pupils. Those living in town
might especially help in this. 1t is
important that pupils return to school
work promptly Monday morning.
The board of directors has not yet
taken action in regard to holiday va.
cations or the question of making up
work, but will attend to these things
as is deeemd advisable. Whatever
provisions may be made for the re-
mainder of the term, it seems proper
at this time to request of pupils,
parents, patrons and others that as
far as possible all social and pleasur-
able functions which might interfere
with school work be dispensed with.
Especially should affairs on an eve
ming preceding school day be dis
couraged. This is wish which has al
ready, been expressed by school board,
teachers, and parents. 1t is believed
that all will cooperate to prevent, as
far as possible, any interference with
school work. Sometimes parents con-
sent to pupils attending functions un-
der the impression that they are

Roy Dorman, with his face black
ened and big straw hat on, was the
whole minstrel show in himself
Many failed to discover his identity
until late in the day
Colville didn't have a peace celebra-
tion all planned by the Chamber of
Commerce as Spokane did, but she
knew that her ingenuity would not
fall short when it came to thinking
of appropristeGwayS of showing her
joy.
While the Kaiser slowly succumbed
to the flames of the town bonfire, the
girls sang, "Old Kaiser Bill amt
what he used to be, amt what he
used to be, ETC." And it was Kaiser
Bill (now Mr.. Hohenzollern) who
said he wouldn't "stand any nom
sense from America" after this war
was. over. .4t
Total strangers embraced on the
streets during the first joyful mad
ness of the peace celebration. Men
went round slapping each other on
the backs and it was surprising how
many citizens broke into spontan-
eous jigs or clog dances whenever the
band played. We wonder if Mrs.
Peddycord saw George w. in a circle
with group of youngsters whirling
madly around until they had to stop
for sheer dizziness.
Some biased individual called Mrs
Mother" Dingle pro-German because
she voted for Dill. She surely look
ed it as she walked at the head of
the morning parade joyfully ringing
big bell to celebrate the end of the
Kaiser's reign. Everytime you look
ed, you could see Mrs. Dingle riding
in different vehicle. She was
everywhere at once and was quite in
dignant when someone told her it
wouldn't be good for her to get so ex-
cited. "I may be pro-German, said
Mother "but I've had a great day of
it."
Jim Petty was conspicuous during
the morning parades with the flaring
headline, "The Kaiser Quits" cut out
from the evening Chronicle, mounted
on cardboard and fastened to his coat.

MANY HUNTING PARTIES
OUT DURING DEER SEASON

The deer season came to close all
too soon for some ardent sportsmen
who would have liked one more hunt
before Nov. Is. The county auditors
office issued $3.50 county licenses and
l75 state licenses this season, which
shows the popularity of Stevens coun-
ty for the hunters Of big game.
On Nov. 8, William Workman, Fred
Elwood and Arthur Douglas returned
from four-days hunting trip with
three blacktail deer. Their hunting
grounds were north of Danville
w. C. Vilwock went into Ferry
county last week and with his bro
ther-in-law c. r. Vierth spent the
weekend hunting in the woods. 1t
rained all the time and they said all
they got was "wet" but they returned
in time for the peace celebration on
Monday.
Thomas Aspend, DR.. j. w. Hen
son and Frank Schumacher returned
from their big hunt Saturday. They
brought in three fine large deer and
some birds, from the country thirty
miles northeast of Metaline.
The hunting party composed of A.
j. Lee, V. l.. Ballard, Francis Town
send and E. j. Milberg left Colvile
Oct. 30 and returned Nov 10. They
hunted some 20 miles above Boyds,
packing in" about IL miles. Mr..
Milberg stirred up some excitement
by getting lost Friday night and
spending the night by the side of a
fire waiting for morning to help him
find his party. 1t was cloudy day
and he mistook light rift in the
clouds for the setting sun and used
this direction for west in trying to
locate his party. He had bird he
had shot just before nightfall but
he didn't get hungry enough to cook
it, and so didn't get anything to eat
until the next afternoon. In the
morning the lost hunter got his di-
rection from the sun and came close
enough to his friends to hear their
signal shots. He used his last shell
to give an answering signal. The
snow was foot and half deep and
it was so wet that the party had
little luck in finding big game.
There are several parties returning
the last of this week, having hunted
up to the last day of the season. DR..
o. f. Vinson, G. G. Graham and Bert
: Nicol left Tuesday on their deer hunt
Judge F. H. Rudkin of the U. S.
district court at Spokane has been a
guest at the home of Atty. and Mrs.
w. Lon Johnson this week. Judge
Rudkin and Mr.. Johnson were to have
had hunting trip together, but Mr..
johnson had not sufficiently recov-
cred from influenza TO make the trip.
The Judge, however, joined party
which included L. M. Mcfarland, G.
G. Dorman and d. X. Zuck and they
made the Lenhart cabin on Bear
mountain their headquarters for a
deer hunt.
