About 10 o'clock it started. He'll
broke loose. Big and little shells,
"Minnies," seemed to be going off
everywhere. Limbs from trees tumbled
down, and the shrapnel bursts out
through the forest sounded like rain.
1t didn't appear as if a human being
could live in it. The ground was pull
verized. Mixed in with the shrapnel
shells were gas shells. The shrill
screech Of the horn announced the gas.
Masks were donned in four seconds.
All that day and part of the night
the men lived through that hell. They

Exclusive Use
OF a Muddy Field

The first night of the march we
were billeted in quite large town,
but the men were dead tired and didn't
spend much time wandering around
The mess sergeants had the hardest
possible sort Of job. A nice, muddy
field had been turned over to them for
their exclusive use. In it they had
to dig holes for their field ranges and
rescue grub boxes that were constantly
in danger Of sinking in the mud. Old
Sergeant Rogan, who once did duty at
the Biltmore, challenged, aye, defied
any one within hearing. can who tn
ell" he demanded to know, "evur called
this Sunny Fr-r-ance?'" No one knew.
In the morning we were on the road
again, and that night arrived at our
destination. Here, portable. barracks
had been erected and the men occupied
barracks for the first time since they
had left America.
The snow was several inches deep,
but snow never stopped the American
army, SO we drilled as usual. Every
day we would take long hikes, "pull
off" sham attacks, and generally go
through a modern warfare training
programme. The boys took to it like
duck to water.
We were in this town over Christ
mas. The 1st and I'd battalions were
in villages near US.
None will ever forget that Christ
mas. Few Of the packages from home
had arrived, but Captain McKenna, of
the supply, had brought through
turkeys and other delicacies sent by
the government. This, added to what
was purchased by the companies, re-
suited in true Christmas feast.

What Training
in France Means

The training. grounds for the Sd
Battalion were on a high plateau, and
5ne could look down into little valley
villages all around, with their white
walled houses with red tile roofs, and
The church spires like silent sentincls
guarding them from all harm.
Here, for two weeks, the men trained
all morning and all afternoon. At night
it was so cold that they crawled into
bed early, only leaving their floor
hunks at the sound of first call in
the morning.
We "pulled out" one clear morning
and headed south. Captain Hurley, then
the ranking officer with the Sd Bat
talon, was in command. AS we swung
past village after village the popula-
tion came rushing into the main
streets, waving their hands and cheer
ing. The sight of pretty girl, and
there were mighty few in that par
ticular section at the time, was the
signal for the whole outfit to do "eyes,
right" or "eyes, left" without COM
mand.

vention of tuberculosis announces
that $6,S62.32 will be realized this
year from the sale of Red Cross seals
IN the state of Idaho. A check for
S6S6.23, or 10 per cent OF the pro-
ceeds OF the sale. will be forwarded
10 the American Red Cross in pay
ment for the printing of the seals
and special literature used in the
sale, the remaining 80 per cent will
be retained ia Idaho for use through
out the state for the study and pre-
vention OF tuberculosis.
The amount this year is three
times that of 1916 when ii totaled
$2,136. HALEY leads in the sale Of
the seals. This is the third time
that ambitious little town has won
remnant; twice winning first place
and one second place. She sold "a
seals per capita. Kellogg won sec
ond place with p per capita and
Hansen won the pennant for towns
with 100 to 1000 population with a
per capita sale of 20. The towns
winning pennants in 1916 were Sho-
shone, first, with S.65 per capita (;
HALEY, second, with S21 per capita
in towns of 1000 or over; and Fruit
land with 9.31 per capita in towns
of 100 to 1000. The increase is
splendid, certainly from SIS to "a 6

this year amounted to s67.97.

Your attention is earnestly called

ed to place your order for coal now,

The mines have made a reduction OF
price below what they are authorized
TO charge in order to move coal while
cars are idle. There will be a car
shortage as soon as crops begin to
move.
See your dealer and place your or

RED CROSS NOTES

\ box of 200 tapped hospital shirts
and two boxes of knitted articles
we're sent into Headquarters by the
Jerome chapter this week.
The Jerome chapter has been ask
ed to make and send in five WOODEN
dresses and eight wooden shoulder
shawls for the refugees. Descrip-
tions and the style of dress to be
made can be obtaIned from Mrs.
Piper.
Jerome has also been asked to
make and send i'm during the next
three months twenty-five sweaters
and ninety pairs of socks. Have sent
to Headquarters for new socks-yarn
and the chapter is daily expecting
new sweater yarn.
The Jerome chapter is sorely in
need of workers Ii does not seem
right that the work should be LETT
to a very few women when there are
so many in Jerome who could help.
1t does not seem that it should be
| necessary to continually have to
plead for sewers. Our boys who are
lighting and dying in France are do
| ing IL for every woman in Jerome
and every woman in Jerome should
do her share to help those brave
boys lover there" Surely there
must be five women in Jerome who
would be willing to donate and make
up one of the dresses and one of the
little shawls asked for, as well rs
others to help out on the knitting
and hospital shirts and convalesceni
robes.

munities. who have not reached their
quota in the Liberty Bond drive to
finish their drive.
1t is not because Jerome is not
patriotic that the day is not to be

towns OF the state to complete its
quota in all drives and having finish

day no further efforts are necessary
at this time.

 CLAIMED BY Z

Appearing before the local board and claiming exemption from mili tary service on the grounds of their belonging to a neutral country, al though they had previously declared their intention of becoming citizens of the United States, were David Sigfried Larson and Henry Steineg- ger. The former is native of Sweden and the latter claims Switz- erland as the place of his birth.
 Acting on the recent amendment to the selective service law, the board has temporarily suspended the induction of these two men until the President prescribes regulations covering cases such as these. An act was recently passed by con- gross in which was embodied that should any declarant withdraw his declaration of intention in order to avoid being in the service he would forever be barred from becoming citizen of the United States. In all probability this act will be appli- cable to these two who seek to avoid military duty.
