Girls in Washington on War Work
 to Be Housed Comfortably

Washington, Feb. 16.-Signs of re- lief went up from every household in the country from which a young wonl- an war WOrker' had gone to Wash ington, when 1t was announced that
 the national government had taken
 over the housing problem in the na-
 tion's capital.
 President Wilson has set aside
 S1,000 a month from the emergency war appropriation, which he spends Ut his discretion in carrying on the war, to assist Uncle Sans new employees to find lodgings. This money is being used by the District of Columbia branch of the National Council of De- fense to form an organization which will mako a survey of the rooming and housing situation in Washington. This centralized bureau will be under su- pervision of the National Council of Defense The action of the president was due to the urgent solicitation of the Civil Service commission, which has been finding it difficult to get em- ploycs owing to the idea generally ac- cepted throughout the country that rooms in Washington were impossible to obtain and that prices were prac- tically prohibitive for government em- ployes Bureau chiefs who found thelr ablest employees resigning because ot inability to get comfortable lodgings added their pleas to those of the Civil Service that "something" be done, and the district officials realizing to the full that Washington's great op- portunity might be jeopardized did she not succeed in making the strangers comfortable, have done yeoman serv- ice in attempting to do away with situation with which they had no funds to cope

A TOAST TO THE KAISER

By H. S. Spedden
The kultur'd kaiser-may he float
On open sea, in open boat,
In Iceland cold without coat,
A million miles away from shore,
Without compass, sail or oar,
And slowly starving, vainly shout,
Limburger cheese, and sauerkraut.
Oh, may the kultur'd tyrant dwell
In deepest pits of darkest hell,
Where little devils dance in glee.
Then lock the door and lose the key.
May Belgian orphans round him
dance
And outraged maidenhood of France
Shout forever in his ear,
Kultur, kraut and lager beer.
Afloat on burning tropic seas,
Where Shiny monsters sport about,
May sharks devour him stem and
stern,
A whale engulf him down in turn.
The devil get the whole concern.
And make it into sauerkraut

Robert Durland wrote his father
on Fathers Day, which day all the
soldiers were asked to observe in
this way. In summing up his tours
in France he wrote:
eve left New York harbor on the
oath of December, 1917 on the ship
Lapland. 1t was a large ship, but
we rode steerage, that is in the bot
tom of the boat. We went to Hall
fax for two days, where we witness
ed the coldest days Of our lives.
"We went from there to Liver
pool and three. days at
Winchester and saw some of the
fine sights. From there we went by
rail to Southampton and crossed the
channel to Havre. We went from
there to Bordeaux for five months,
were at Claremont for two months
and then went from there to the
front.
"Our first position was Villiers,
a small town twelve kilometers
southwest of Chateau Thierry. We
had three or more positions on that
front, as we made advances.
Surprise Germans
"We went overland from there to
the St. Michel salient. We were on
the west side of the salient thanking
it. We went in there quietly with
hundreds of batteries of artillery of
all descriptions and opened all at
once, taking the Germans by sur
prise.
1--WE pulled out of there to small
town named Blercourt, about 10
kilometers from Verdun This was
used as place of supplies and the
guns pulled up to town called
Mari (nothing but ruins), which is
only four kilometers from Verdun
We then started our hard drive up
the Meuse river. We saw hard
fighting there and lost number Of
men. We drove up past Montfaucen.
We were near the town of Montig-
nay, firing across the river instead
of driving up, when the war ended.
We pulled back to Blercourt and are
now waiting to go to Coblence if
orders are not changed. 1t is a
long cold trip, but worth taking.
This gives you a brief idea of where
l have been fighting, but still l will
tell you all when l get home, which
l expect to be in the spring.
eve were on the front from July
10 to the last minute. Believe me
there is lot of celebrating here.
The French have the most to be
glad for and they all show just how
they feel"
In an earlier letter Robert wrote
his parents that he had heard rum
ors from Colville that Dud McKin-
ney was dead, but that he was all
right. However, he wrote that Frank
Starr was killed the last of October
and stated that Starr and SER
geant major were in a pup tent
when a shell hit.

CHRISTMAS OFFERING
FOR DESTITUTE RACES


Christian North America is being
called on at this time to pour out
its money for Liberty Bonds and for
the various war service activities
and the Red Cross. 1t is responding
nobly. Another challenging call,
however, is sounding in the ears of
the Christian people of North Amer
lea. 1t is the call of over two mil
lion people in Bible lands-Arme-
mans, Syrians and Greeks of Asia
Minor.
These people, who are the hope of
civilization in western Asia, have en-
dured and are enduring much suf-
fering-such as our American minds
cannot conceive. They have been
massacred and deported. Men have
been separated from their families
and ruthlessly murdered. Attractive
women and girls have been sold as
slaves or taken by the Turks. The
rest of the women and children have
been driven into the mountains and
the desert, and the paths over which
these refugees have gone are strewn
with the dead. In the past two
years over million have died from
massacre, exposure, disease and de-
portation. But the dead no longer
challenge us--it is those who live
and can be saved.
Four million people, destitute of
home, clothed only in rags, are fac
ing the cold of winter and starva-
ton. Four hundred thousand of
these are orphans. The relief agen-
cies can do nothing unless North
America furnishes the money.
All the denominations have united
to answer this call from the east,
and campaign has been launched
to raise two million dollars from the
Sunday schools of North America.
Every Sunday school is asked to
give a Christmas Season offering to
Armenian and Syrian relief work.
Last year the Sunday schools of
America gave an offering of one
million dollars.
w. L. Biggar, of Colville, who is
president of the Stevens County Sun
day School Association, has been ap-
pointed chairman for the county in
this Christmas offering campaign in
the Sunday schools, and every Sun
day school in the county has been
asked to make an offering to this
cause. Where the Sunday schools
are closed on account of influenza
it is hoped that the members of the
schools and others interested will
send their offerings to the superin-
tendents of their schools in order
that this offering may be as large
as possible.
The Armenian and Syrian relief
committee has already done a won
derful work in ministering to these
suffering people in Bible lands, and
has been enabled to save thousands
of lives. The committee is directed
by leading men of the continent and
its work has been highly indorsed
by President Wilson. One feature of
the work of the committee is unique
1t is enabled to devote all money
collected for relief work to the i'm
mediate cause for which it is given
Expenses for collection, printing,
postage, administration and trans
mitting of funds are met privately.
Let every boy and girl, man and
woman, in Stevens county give some
thing to this Christmas offering

YOUR SHOPPING NOT DONE
UNLESS YOU GIVE TO FUND

If every one will help little none
of the children of Stevens county
need go without gifts this Christmas.
The fund that is going to bring hap
piness to the boys and girls who
might otherwise have no Christmas
has been started and it needs con-
tributions to keep it going. By
Monday noon it is hoped that there
will be sufficient money in the var
ious boxes placed around town so
that gifts may be purchased for the
fifty boys and girls whose names are
on the list. If you haven't given to
this fund, do not call your Christmas
shopping complete.
