AN APPEAL
FOR RED CROSS.

Continued from Page 1-Col 6.
you can as your country calls upon
you to give, until you give the last
dollar short of the barest needs of
your loved ones, because you know
that in the last analysis, you must do
these things to save those very loved
ones from the worst that can come 10
them. the fate of so many little ones,
Just as beloved of the Belgian and
French parents and by the loving
Father of all little children.
Il know that the feeling of the man
ly young men of the nation who are
of the proper age and physique is
that they could not let this crisis in
the life of their beloved country pass
without trying TO do all that they
could and offering themselves for the
supreme sacrifice if necessary. Will
not the future make up apply the same
test to ourselves? Will not we con-
stantly be judging ourselves; weigh
ing ourselves; perhaps regretting that
we did not do this thing or the other
thing that we might have done, and
which. though we could not see direct
" the consequence of doing or not do
ing. we know now and will realize
more keenly as long as we live was
having its effect for help or withhold
ing help from our splendid boys
across the water?
"You have recently subscribed to a
good block of Liberty Bonds, you say?
Splendid OF course you have. and
you have invested your money, loaned
il to your government, and it showed
your confidence in it and your will
ingness to help it in the way that was
presented to you. You have invested
your money and it will be safe and
yield a good return; simply as an in
vestment it was wise thing to do and
you could do no better.
Now you are asked to give some
thing to the Red Cross-to the work
of mercy and help; to make things
as good as we can for the fellows
who have got to stand a lot at best,
to suffer and to endure for the cause
THAT means so much to us and the
people of the whole world and those
who are to come after us. 1t is quite
a different matter, for you Will never
get any of the money back-it will be
quite gone. But you will not be with
out your reward, though you will not
seek reward, you. man or woman or
child who will do a part in this work
or give something that you may con-
tribute to it. The consciousness of a
good act is a splendid thing even to
those who do not understand that by
the law of our Father in heaven it
must be, but to those who know His
plan and understand His command to
Lay up treasures in Heaven it will
be numbered among the sweetest and
most blessed things that life has for
us that we held back nothing, in doing
or giving, while we have this oppor-
tunity in so splendid a service"

Acorns And Dandelion Coffee.

For several months coffee has been
almost unobtainable in Denmark, &C
cording to advices received at Wash

sells for as much as So pound This

ton of coffee substitutes. 1t is now
reported that about $4,000 tons of va
rious kinds of raw materials have
lately been used for making these
substitutes. One report says that
5000 tons of acorns, 1900 tons of dan

The possibility of an extra
session of the i4th Idaho legis-
lature looms big again. The fed
eral funds expected to equip the
battalion of national guard being
.organized is cut off and the state
will have to finance its own
troops for the time being. There
are not enough funds in the ad-
jutant generals appropriation to
90 this. It costs 1852 to equip
each of the soldiers sworn into
the service. The battalion will
contain between 500 and 600
men.
Governor Alexander, Adjutapt
General Moody and other state
officials believe the state can not
afford, in the present crisis, to
be without protection of troips.
The only way they can be financed
now is through an appropriation
authorized by the legislature in
special session.
Governor Alexander said: 1t is
true that l am giving the matter
great deal of thought. The
state is now required to finance
its own troops if it is to have
protection from them in case Of
any trouble. To get the funds
Legislative appropriation is ne
cessary. The mosey can be ap-
Ipropriated by the legislature in
extra session.
I'VE have not the funds now
to equip the soldiers. The federal
government can not give us fin
ancial assistance. However, we
, are authorized to proceed with
the organization of the battalion
and will continue to do so. Idaho
should have troops to protect it
in case of internal troubles. The
convening of the legislature in
special session would only be to
meet war emergency"
Governor Alexander said
should I decide to call such a
session I will request members
OF both houses to serve without
pay and inly be reimbursed for
their travelling expenses. l be-
lieve that they will be willing to
do this and thereby eliminate
great cost to the state. The ses-
sion certainly need not last
| longer than six days.
THE legislation recommended
would be confined to a few sub
ljccts. Paramount among the leg
islatfon would be the measure to
lprovide funds for the equipment
Of the national guard soldiers
now being organized"
The matter of securing federal
funds to equip the regiment was
taken up direct with the militia

and in reply Judge Advocate
General Crowder held that fed
