LETTERS MEAN MUCH TO
OUR SOLDIER BOYS.

at is the letter from the folks at
home that brings the greatest cheer
into the heart of the soldier boys,
said DR.. James A. Francis, militant
pastor of the First Baptist church
of Los Angeles. who devoted many
months to work among the enlisted
men in the cantonments in the
western and southern war depart
ments under the auspices of the Ma
tional War Work Council of the Y.
M. C. A.
"These lads, away from home.
among strangers, thrown into an
unusual situation, many of them
away from home for the first time
in their lives, crave message from
some one that they love. There are
boys in the cantonment who have
experienced inconsistencies in it's most
virulent form. A letter from home
would cheer and brace them up.
Think of the boys oversees.
thousands of miles from home. in n
strange land, facing death and
hardship. Think of these boys and
write them. You can't overdo it.
They can't get too many letters.
They will read them and reread
them and it will send cheer into
their hearts. Let them know that
you are thinking of them, that you
believe in them, that you rely upon
them and they will respond when
called upon to give the best that is
in them to make this world safe for
democracy.
IF you only knew what it means
to the soldier to get letter from
home you wouldn't hesitate a min
ute. Write every day ii you can.
He will be the better soldier for it
and you will feel the better for hav-
ing done it,"

Hofstede and his like are a great

ingratitude is the meanest crime on
the calendar. Those who greet the
traitor with a handshake are COM

our laws, our rights, our liberty,

You think to spite someone by your
disgraceful attitude? You poor.

right with your nation you will not

loyal Americans to recognize men

D. w. DAVIS DELIVERS
MASTERFUL ADDRESS

Those who heard d. W. Davis. our
state chairman OF the Liberty bonds,
veal, IN the Rex Tue iav night
know what real eloquence and true
oratory is. Mr.. Davis spoke on the
war, and ii was the most finished,
scholarly. patriotic discussion of the
war we have heard, and those who
were there know now what the duty
of the men and women of this ma
tion Is. Fortunately Mr.. Davis has
talked with noted men and women
who have seen Belgium. who have
seen German atrocities, and he told
his audience of few, the reciatl of
which sent shudders of horror over
the people. He told the audience it
was imperative that this nation and
the people wake up to a realization
of the task before us; that we must
speed or be defeated. He said we
must back up the Government, and
that the man or woman who could
buy a thousand dollar bond was il
Stacker If he or she bought less than
the $1,000. He said most people
are willing to do their best. but ii
was painfully evident that some
bankers, some carpenters. some 9th
er laborers. some farmers. some of
all classes are just plain slackers
because they are not doing their
best. or anything like their best He
told of mechanics now working on
ships, absolutely essential. and yet
the work turned out per dav per
man is far below what it ought to
be. and what it was In normal
times.
There are slackers on the job,
Unfortunately. there was also
some Stacking in the matter of pub
licity for the Davis meeting Few
knew he was to be here, II having
been announced that he was to be
in Orofino February 6. Only half
crowd turned out. and the best talk
of the year was lost to many who
would have proiited from hearing
1t.

Isn't there something significant
in the fact that you never find a
republican who is disloyal to the
country; and that republicans are
not too proud to fight when they
hear anyone insult the flag, the gov
eminent. or even a democratic pres
ident? Now many or most of the
democrats are just as loyal and just
as patriotic, and many who were
socialists are loyal and true, but
those who are disloyal in this sec
ton are alleged democrats or So
cialists. Never republicans.

DEAN OF WOMEN GAVE
DELIVERED FINE TALK

Miss Permeal French. dean of the
Women at the University of Idaho,
accompanied by Miss Taylor and
Miss Erwin of the Home Economics
Department, were in Orofino Satur-
day, and gave our women some ex-
cellent assistance. The address by
Miss French was particularly fine.
What she said to the mothers left a
deep impression, and the regretable
thing is that the hall was not pack
ed. She went into some deep, vital
questions, and spoke of the great
problems confronting this nation at
ter the war.
The exhibit of war foods was ex-
cellent, and the display of home
made garments creditable.

Another danger to which winter trawl-

dent Wilson.
BY that date all owners Of stockyards
will be required to obtain licenses from
the Department of Agriculture. under
provis' 'ons Of the food control act of last
August.
The Secretary of Agriculture thereby
is given virtual control Of the yards to
the end of conserving the food Supply
and directing its distribution
Livestock commission men are also
required to obtain licenses and the con-
troll will exert its influence over all live

Washington. y. e.
The President issued his proclamation
under power grs nted him by Congress
last August to control distribution Of
food products In the interest OF national
security and defense.
The move is part of the plan to get
greater cooperation between livestock
raisers, the packers and the food ad-
minstration.
No change OF any consequence Is en-
pected to develop In Philadelphia stock
yards following the action of President
Wilson in directing owners of stock
yards to obtain licenses. according to
&. l.. Lammert2, of the Philadelphia
Union Stockyards. lie said the stock
yard activities in this city are too small
tc make any difference in them.
one Of the advantages of the Gov
ernment having direct touch with the
stockyards here and in other cities. Mr.
LamrnertZ said. is that il gives the
Federal authorities an accurate line on
how much livestock is on hand in yards
and permits them to divert it easily to
Federal use when needed
Licensing of stockyards is one of the
reclmmendstio of President Wilson's
meat commission. which recently inVesti-
gated the whole livestock industry.
II is one OF the big steps taken to stop
speculation in food necessities Specu-
lators will be brought under Government
license. and manipulation of the meat
supply, especially beef. will be virtually
ended.
Hoover has had great difficulty in
handling the beef problem. Because of
extremely heavy purchases of pork, the
food administration has been able to
maintain fairly steady price. But be-
cause of the smaller proportion Of beef
purchas and the variety of grades
Hoover has been unable TO stabilize
prices.
