THANKSGIVING CHEER
GIVEN no SOLDIERS
Spirit Of the Day, Even Is Extended
to Indians at Fort Hall

PoCATELLO, Nov. N28.-Soldiers
passing thru this city today were not
forgotten by the Red Cross canteen
committee in an extraordinary man
ner. All troops passing thru the
city are at all times well fed at the
local canteen, but today being
thanksgiving day the boys were
treated to q real Thanksgiving din
ner, served in the best way possible
during the comparatively short time
that the trains stopped here.
Mrs. Hananah Ash, known in the
canteen work as the mother" Of
the soldier boys took personal charge
of the canteen today, and supervised
the feeding of the hungry boys as
they came in on the various trains
during the day. The menu consisted
of turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy,
cranberry sauce, hot mince pies, etc.
The canteen report daily average
Of twenty-five men passing thru
from northwestern camps to their
homes In various part Of the county.
The Indians Of the Fort Hall res
ervation we're not forgotten either.
1t has become an annual custom with
the sportsmen of the city to devote

ing ducks for the Indians Of the
Indians ON the reservation, and yes

HUNNISH CATS ARE PUT no
DEATH AT LOCAL WAR PRISON

Twenty-Five. inteynes in the third
war prison compound at Fort Doug
las were executed by the military
authorities yesterday.
The interns were German cats,
however, not German men. The ex-
ecutions were humane in every re-
spect, and this measure was taken as
q preventive among the human pris-
oners Of war held within the big
camp. Cats are known to be carriers
Of the influenza germ land the pre-
sence of a large number of these an
finals in the barracks of the German
prisoners was a menace which the
military authorities decided must be
removed, and the only method Of &C
complishing this lay in execution of
the cats.
AS result an order was issued and
Captain Earl Price supervised the
legal and proper execution of the
cats. They were given painless and
humane deaths by the use Of chloro-
form.
The German prisoners were very
fond Of cats and every barrack in the
compound had its full quota Of in
termed feline pets. These pets
crawled over beds permiscuously and
became a menace in view of the in
fluenza situation.

SATISFACTION 40 JOIN
HANDS WITH AMERICANS

|. LONDON. Nov. 2S.-In q long
article ON Thanksgiving day. the
Daily Mail says:
This years Thanksgiving DAY
will be celebrated in gratitude Tor
the richest harvest ever gathered IN.
| It is q particular reason for satisfac-
ton that we can join hands with the
on the perilous months thru which
we and they passed" -
The paper pays tribute to the
United States navy In winning VIC
tory which will be regarded as an
epic illustration of the value of sea
power.
Referring to Colonel w. s. Church.
hrs declaration on the determination
of the British to preserve their sea
rights to which the republic OF the
United States owes its existence,
the Telegraph continues:
1--WE believe the good sense OF the
American people will lead them to q
recognition of the debt due to the two
tnavies, and that they will sympath
lie with the attitude Of an island
people in confronting the naval Ques-
tons which may be discussed at the
peace conference. We, like them
selves, owe our freedom from agrees
sion to sea power"
Everywhere" the Daily Tele-
graph continues, "thruout the kings
ldominions, Colonel Chruchill's firm
statement will be supported that NJ
arguments must lead us to abandon
our naval supremacy which Is the
only sure defense of these islands
and the distant dominions.
I'm joining In celebrating Thanks
giving day we may perhaps entertain
the hope that the great American
people, remembering the passage OF
their troops in safety across the At
Elantic and the dramatic close Of the
war as q direct result Of the blockade
in which the American naval forces
also joined. will be as firmly re-
Esolved as we are not to barter away
those ancient rights which once have
proved OF be the deliverance OF the
world"
