If you have not visited the Liberty
Shop on Third street, it will be hard for

and wholly worth while place it is.
Numerous customers who have found
wonderful bargains there could testify
to the value of the goods offered for
sale and the very low price at which
everything is marked
Just at present there is one thing which
the Liberty Shop needs more than it
does customers and that is something to
sell. If brisk trade is to be kept up
between now and the holidays. for the
benefit of the Red Cross, it is highly
desirable that everyone i'll town look
over discarded or unused articles and
take them to the Liberty Shop to be
sold Clothing of all kinds is much in
demand On Saturday last neat sum
was realized from the sale of garments
which will be cut down and made into
splendid clothes for school children.
Materials in old clothes are usually far
superior in quality to what has been re-
Gently manufactured, and mothers with
skillful fingers can refashion these sub
stantial garments of an earlier day into
excellent school clothes.
Besides clothes. the Liberty Shop can
sell pictures, books, brio brac, lamps,

other articles. If you have anything you

TUBERCULOSIS
CAMPAIGN IS ON
RED CROSS SEALS TO RAISE
MONEY TO FIGHT THE GREAT
WHITE PLAGUE

In former years, the nation wide
campaign against the white plague,
led by the national tuberculosis as
ISOLATION, has been supported in the
main by the sale of the little Red
Cross Christmas seals, which any one
who had even penny to spare might
buy.
The war has served to reveal to
America more tellingly than ever be-
fore how enormously our tuberculosis
problem is and how imperative is the
continuance and extension of the
campaign against tuberculosis, for
tens of thousands of the nations
young men have been rejected in the
draft as unfit for military service on
account of tuberculosis.
The American Red Cross, therefore,
faces an obligation to assist this
campaign to the utmost. To that
end, and as a means of replacing the
usual sale of Christmas seals at a

ANSWERS SUMMONS
DAUGHTER OF LATAH COUNTY'S
SHERIFF WAS INFLUENZA
VICTIM SUNDAY

A death that will cause genuine sorrow
in wide circle was that of the daughter
of Sheriff and Mrs. ]. ]. Campbell, which
occurred Sunday. The daughter, bright
intelligent and lovable girl of 10, who
would have graduated from the Moscow
high school next semester, was taken i'll
a week ago last Saturday with influenza,
which quickly turned to pneumonia, and
for several days there had been little
hope of her recovery, although every
thing possible was done to save her.
Kind friends assisted the afflicted fam
ily, five members of which were sick at
one time.
The funeral was held today brief serv-
ices being held at the home at II 80, the
Rev. H. @. Perry conducting the serv-
ices.

time when life held the most for her

Palouse, on September "A, 1902 For the
past five years she has been in attend
ance in the Moscow schools where she
would have graduated soon. She was
active in Sunday school work and had
hosts of friends among the young people
of the Sunday schools. Besides her
parents, who have lived in this section of
the country for IS years, she leaves six
brothers and one sister, two of the
brothers being in the service of their
country and one of these but recently

SAY IDAHO MUST

APPEAL FROM BOISE TO EVERY
COUNTY TO GO OVER THE
TOP THIS WEEK

Boise, Idaho, II rs p. M, Dec. g.

county chairmen of war savings in Idaho
have been urged by James K. Lynch,
governor of the Federal Reserve bank
at San Francisco, to put their counties
over the top with their quotas of war
savings stamps To accomplish this
every county in the state is making a
strenuous drive this week. The governor
expects fulfillment of IdaIo's war saw
ngs obligations just as it expected the
state to come across in Liberty bonds.
It will take earnest work to put Idaho
across before the time limit passes. Mr..
Lynch says "The secretary of the treas
ury is counting upon Idaho reaching her
quota in war savings, and it is to you
we must look to put your county. over

All the chairmen OF Liberty loan
drives in Idaho have issued statements
urging a cleanup on war savings to save
Idaho from the stigma of Stacker. Gov
ernor- ELECT Davis, chairman of the sec
ond and third loans, said: "The state
must not be allowed to fail now ON war
savings. Such a blot on the splendid
record we have made in every other war
drive would be unbearable. As | view
it the eight million dollars Idaho has
been asked to raise by the sale of war
savings is as much a duty as would be
for this state of any
of Liberty bonds. The time has
now come for Idaho to dig in and clean
up her balance in war savings and |
hope this will be accomplished
during "Honor Week"
Chairman F. F. Johnson of the first
Liberty loan said: 81 have no fear but
Idaho citizens will put their shoulders to
the wheel in the war savings stamp drive
the coming week Idaho must fulfill all
her war obligations"
Chairman Monte B. Gwinn of the
fourth drive said idaho has made such
1 magnificent record on all other war
demands it would be a shame for The
state to fail to clean its quota of savings
certificates. Nothing less than full per-
torrance of all war obligations should
satisfy us. It is unquestionably the duty
If every loyal Idaho citizen to feel deep
responsibility in the drive to
lean up on war savings and to do his

EARNS IA CENTS A DAY;
HAS WIFE AND BABY
And Yet This True Story Has a
Happy Ending.

Even a Frenchman sometimes loses,
for awhile at least, his "unfailing"
sense Of humor.
Take, for instance, the case Of q
man from Lille, a soldier. Waeltele by
name and only twenty-three. He had
done pretty well, for the yOungster had
already his own printing shop in that
northern French town, which is still In
side the German lines. In the trenches
Waeltele developed tuberculosis, and
he was sent to a hospital at Grenoble.
There he was considered incurable,
and after the usual three months Of
treatment he was granted his IA cents
q day pension. Said his fatherly army
doctor. "My son, you can perhaps cure
yourself II you will live in the noun
tains, II you will eat plenty Of nour-
ishing food and, above all, II you don't
worry"
WaelteIe should have smiled, but he
dIdnt. He was thinking Of his baby
and his wife--and his IA cents. "Dont
worryi" The hun1or OF 1t entirely e.
capped him.
Then the Red Cross stepped in. BE
was found by an American woman
with some American Red Cross money
for just such cases, and within few
hours he no longer had need to worry.
He was sent to the mountains at La.
mure, in the French Alps, happy in
the knowledge that his family was be-
ing cared for by these amazingly kind
Americans.
And now the army doctors words
are coming true. Waeltele's lung is
healing fast, and he is dreaming of
another printing shop and of living
again some day with that little family.
There have been over 100000 new
cases Of tuberculosis in France since
the war started, and to care for these
cases and check the White Plaques
spread Is merely one Of the big Jobs
the American Red Cross has set out to
accomplish.

( Home service means keeping the SOL

means tiding the family over financial

It calls for sympathetic understanding

most vital needs Of the soldiers family.
The Red Cross is pledged to "Home
