Victorious End of The War Proclaimed
Awakened Holiday Spirit

Rathdrum celebrated the end of
the war Monday with manifesto
tions of gladness that crystalized
into an organized street parade
and stated program of music and
speeches, bonfire and barbecue.
From the time the Joy bells
announced the signing of the
armistice that brought a cessation
OF hostilities, about $3.50 in the
morning, until the barbecue was
over and the bonfire had burned
low, the holiday spirit pervaded
the entire town and vicinity.
The ringing of the bells, honking
of auto horns and firing of guns
got out large crowd before day
light, and sunrise found the town
in gala attire with its flags and
bunting displayed in profusion
down both sides of the main street.
Early in the day o. @. Farnsworth,
chairman of the local advisory
committee started arrangements
for the evening celebration. Com
mittees were appointed and speak
ers secured. Forty-two dollars
were raised and a trip made to
Spokane to purchase fireworks.
Another committee was assigned
the work of preparing the barbe-
cue, and another to gather fuel for
the bonfire at the school grounds
and to install the necessary lights
on the stairway and porches.
In the afternoon large crowd
assembled down town to receive
and give vociferous welcome. to
some twenty-six auto loads OF
CGur d'Alene citizens who came

APPEAL FOR FUNDS
Must Be No Let Down In
Giving, Says Taylor.

Huntington Taylor, chairman of
the Kootenai County Defense
council has issued the following
statement in behalf of the united
war work drive of Nov. III to IS:
The prospect of peace will be
apt to cause some to contribute
less than they otherwise would
have done or to let down in their
work.
We must guard against this and
especially impress on everyone:
First. That many of our Boys
will be over there for from one to
two years after the declaration of
Peace.
Second. That the need Of the
work to which this money is going
is even greater, if possible, than
before-WHY?
Because if Peace is declared the
reaction or let down physically
and mentally and lack of the same
incentive to keep themselves in
"form" as when the battle was on
makes necessary all the greater
effort on the part of those doing
this work to help the "Boys"
maintain that STANDARD of morale"
which is, and has been, one >of the
strongest factors and outstanding
characteristics of our army.
Third. That large part of this
money has been used and contract
ed for already.
The President and Secretary of
War have said that the subscrip-
tions should be increased at least
so per cent. This makes the quota
for Kcotenai county S2I, ,ooo 90.
1t is up to us all to make good
now when the Boys need our help
most il we wish them to have the
proper living conditions while over
there and to be eft" when they
return.
