In staring, tortured meadows, where

Where now the brave IN one red

Man thrusts at Man againt
Yet far above the he1hsh horde-the

The shining sword of knighthood-
the weapon of a band
That sprong from fearless fathers on
Plymouths cherries strand!
Well may the beads of terror stand
upon the Prussian brow!
The Golden Savord of Yarakeelaaad
has left the scabbard now!
Its blade is truly tempered in fires
of Sacrifice
By patriots brave who gladly gaze
and proudly paid the price
Its hit is set wtth precious gems

And down the ages get unborn the

Presidents Statement

Industry plays as essential and hon.
orable a role in this great struggle
as do Our military ornaments. We
all recognize the truth of this, but we
must also see its necessary implications
namely, that industry, doing vital
task for the nation, must receive the
support and assistance of the nation"
Therefore, I so1emnly
urge all employers engaged III war work
to refrain after August Isl 1918. from
recruiting unskilled labor in any man
ner except through this central agency
THE U. S. Employment Servicel
l urge labor to respond as Loyalty as
b heretofore to any calls issued by this
agency for voluntary enlistment in essen
tial industry. And l ask them both alike
to remember that no sacrifice will have
been in vain, if we are able to prove
beyond all question that the highest and
best form of efficiency is the spontaneous
cooperation OF free people"

MOSCOW HIGH QUINTET
ADD WAITSBURG SCALPS
Local Basket Ball Team Down All
Opposition in It's Triumphal Tour
in the West

The scrappy Moscow High school
five beat Waitsburg last night at the
Waitsburg gymnasium by score of
81 to Sc. The game was fast and al
though Is points is the narrowest
margin by which Moscow has won this
season the game was never in dan
ger.
The game was played on dance
floor and for this reason Moscow's
fast forwards were not able to move
around very we'll as they had been
accustomed to a regular gymnasium
floor.
Fox of course was the star of the
game but he hurt himself in the last
part of the game. His injury is moth
ing serious and it is thought that he
will be able to start the Walla Walla
game
Cozier played his usually heady
game, but on account of the floor he
was put at a disadvantage. The boys
all feel fine and they moved on to
Walla Walla this morning prepara-
tory to the big game of the trip.

BROUGHT TO HIS HOME CITY
FOR BURIAL

1t is reasonably certain now that
Dudley A. Loomis will be buried in
Moscow with military honors and that
the whole community will join in pay
ing a tribute of respect. No definite
arrangements have yet been made
either as to time or plans. Mayor
Truitt has under consideration the is
suing of a proclamation calling upon
all business houses to close during
the funeral services.
Mr.. and Mrs. George Loomis, Dud-
ley's father and mother reached
Moscow this morning. They were ac-
companied by a sister, Mrs A. Neff
of Colfax.
Miss Flora Loomis, sister of Lieu
tenant Dudley A. Loomis, will ar
rive in Moscow tomorrow morning
from Aberdeen, Wash, where she
has been serving as high school in
structor in home economics. This
was the information contained in a
telegram received from Miss Loomis
this afternoon.

DRAMATIC READINGS
AND MUSIC PLEASE
REV. AND MRS. w. H. BRIDGE
FEATURE IN RICH LITERARY
TREAT

The readings given at the Guild hall
last evening by Mr.. and Mrs. W. H.
Bridge were dramatic and literary
treats of unusual quality
"The Open Door," the first play, a
one-act satire by Sutro, with Mr.. and
Mrs. Bridge reading the lines, seemed
an acted play rather than a dramatic
reading, so well were the parts ta-
ken, and so harmonious the setting.
The second reading was Gals
worthy's Little Draem" by Mr..
Bridge This drama in it's symbolism,
its dream characters, its poetry is in
striking contrast to the opening
playlet. The presentation however
was of the same or even greater
merit as the setting was dependent
upon the word painting of the reader.
Appropriate accompanying music
by the university quartet was greatly
enjoyed.
