OF those and other things Miss Lusk
wrote: The chapters on divorce are
going to shock you. especially II you
are ultra-conseryative."
Once during this cross-examInatIon
! Miss Lusk seemed to perk up a bit.
That was when she wrote OF Hidden
Sins" and penned the following: THE

The defense announced that its re-

STAMP PURCHASES
MUST Be REPORTED
If Buyer Wishes to Be Whole
Hearted To Cause.

1t is not sufficient, as some per-
sons have thought, just to purchase
War Savings Stamps, but we must
report our purchases to the Office Of
the War Activities on the pledge
cards. Otherwise the government
will not know what has been pur-
chased nor what is being promised
for the remainder of the year.
Every subscriber is urged to show
on his pledge card three things:
L. The amount he has already
purchased.
Q The amount he has already
promised to someone else.
3. The amount he now agrees to
purchase during the remainder of
the year.
These three amounts when added
together make the total on his pledf
card, and will show the total of HIS
purchases of War Savings Stamps
for 1918.

r To Organize Club
In order to raise our allotment OF
War Savings Stamps il is directed
that we organize a Limit Club.
which means that 1t is necessary to
have a membership of at least one
hundred such subscribers. Those
who have already subscribed the
limit and those who will hereafter
subscribe for the same amount will
be carried on this honor roll, and in
addition will be given a handsome
ly engraved certificate signed by
the Governor, the state director and
the county chairman.
1t is now urged that We secure
this membership as rapidly as pos
sible. Names of purchasers of this
amount will be sent to the state d.

ed.

Statement By Latah County
Defense Council.

The Latah county. Idaho, defense
council adopted the following con-
cerning the l. w. w. menace: "They
teach, and believe, that all property
and property rights now existing have
been wrongful!y taken from labor;
they teach, and believe, that all this
property and property rights should
be recovered In any and every way
possible; they teach, and believe. that
to recover this property and property
rights for labor, they are justified in
using any and every means possible,
whether legal or illegal and
to this end they teach sabotage, or
the secret destruction of property, by
fire. by the use of explosives, by
secret use of polsons, ground glass,
etc., or by means to render it value
less; they use intimidation and
violence to prevent honest labor from
performing honest work; they do not
recognize contracts for labor as
binding and constantly seek oppor-
tunities to destroy values as far as
possible by quitting work when the
most damage can be done.
bad as these doctrines and teach
ings were in time of peace, they
become doubly so in time Of war.
The destruction of property on which
the government depends for prosecu-
tiou of the war; the enforced idleness
of labor, by intimidation, on which
the government depends for supplies
needed to carry on the war-these are
acts which our enemies would do il
placed 10 control of our industries,
and are therefore the acts of our
enemies, the acts Of traitors to ouI
government"

Utilize Small To .atoes.

Utilization of small potatoes in the
making of bread is suet ested by r.
f. Bicknell, food administrator for

that by the use of one-third potatoes
and two-thirds wheat flour 100, ,0OO,-
600 bushels of small potatoes will be
the means or conserving 100, 900, 900
bushels Of wheat.
Potato bread is better bread" he
said, ''besides it is patriotic in this
tiG;e of war. for the following reasons:
1t utilizes waste potatoes.
Saves wheat and other grains which
can be exported.
Gives US bread that is white, moist
and wholesome.
Does not require any more work for
the housewife.
Means two and one third wheatless
days week; 10 wheatless days a
