PUTNAM DISTRICT
Is OVER THE TOP
Putnam Itself, However, Is Be-
hind Schedule and Needs
To Speed Up
Big Increase Over Quota Expected In
District

Putnam district IS over the top in
the Red Cross drive with this Friday
and tomorrow, Saturday, yet to go.
While as a district Putnam is over.
the city itself is reported as tagging
behind at present But there is no
fear for Putnam. The committee
knows that it can be relied upon to
come through. Some of the manufac-
turing plants have not been heard
from and many canvassers have not
turned in their figures. However, it
is we'll that more hard work be done
and that everyone do his and her
share to assure big showing, not
only for the district, but for Putnam.

VOTED TO FORM
A BRANCH
OF National Organization of
National Committee on the
Chur and Moral Aims of
the War.
Meeting In Congregational Church
Not Largely Attended.-Excel-
lent Addresses By Prominent
Speakers.

At meeting held in the Congrega-
tionai church, Tuesday evening. it was
voted TO form branch of the Nation
al Committee on Churches and Moral
Aims of the War. 1t was further
voted that the chairman, Judge E. M.
Warner, appoint committee of ten
to fern such an organization.
just what the meaning of "The
Moral Aims of the War" was, was not
quite clear until the meetings were
held. Many got the impression that it
had 10 do with the moral welfare of
the soldiers both now and after the
war, This is far from what the OBJ
ject sought is to accomplish.
As outlined by the able speakers,
the real purpose of the organization
Is worldwide and lasting peace after
a victorious conclusion of the war,
and a league of nations to engage
that no nation be allowed to make
war on another, but that all cases of
disputes between nations be submit
ted 10 ar international court. If one
should make war or attempt to make
war On another nation the league of
nations would sand together in de-
fence of the nation upon whom wal
was soaght to be made. 1t was point
ed cut further that such league, 70
be effective, must control to some ex-
tent the individual nations in their
ranafaeture Of weapons of war and
their armed forces

her victim was employed and that
Mccarthy made indecent proposals to
him. The boy told his mother what
Mccarthy had done and she went to
the mill and questioned Mccarthy
about it. Getting no satisfaction she
began to strike him. Her little daugh-

Mccarthy raised lantern as if to
strike her, Mrs. Lussier took knife

THIRTY TWO DRAFTEES LEAVE
FOR CAMP UPTON
Putnam Districts Quota Gets Away
On Morning Train

There We're handshakes, kisses,
goodbyes and tears as the thirty-two
young men that made up Putnam dis
trict's quota left this Friday morning
for Camp Upton to begin their lives
as soldiers in the United States army.
The spirit of the men was excellent.
The parting at the last minute is al
ways strain. but there were smiles
mingled with the tears of those who
were left behind All of the men were
on hand early and the total quota
boarded the 923 New York express
that will take them nearly to their
journeys end.

evening meetings were Bishop
Hughes of the Methodist Episcopal
church, of Boston, and DR. J. c. Car
Isle of Folkstone, England, who has
worn the uniform of a captain in the
British army, has been to France four
times and has been in Belgium since
the war began.
The afternoon session drew but a
few people together. The evening
meeting was better attended, but by
no means sufficient interest was
shown to encourage the men who are
campaigning for such worthy OBJ
Ject. In samll communities perhaps
the time is not ripe to think of peace
after the war, as all effort and ener-
gy is so engrossed in helping to win
the war. However, it was predicted
by one of the speakers, that should
Germany be brought to her knees it
would not mean the end of wars
'She would Immediately begin" the
speaker said, ito prepare for the next
time" 1t is to prevent there being a
next time" that this National Com
mittee, to work through the churches
to the end that League of Nations
may be formed, is at present engaged
Bishop Hughes address was a scath-
ing arrangement of the German ma
ton which he branded as a TRAITOR
among nations, liar and a highway
man.. He said that the United States
did not enter into the struggle on ac-
count of any prejudice. If there was
any prejudice it was against England
and not Germany, for it was with
England that the United States had
warred. We entered the war on the
side of England" he said, because
England was right and that we should
be absolutely traitorous to all of our
best instincts unless we did so take
our stand" The United States wants
no territory, wants no colonies, but
went In for straight honor at was a
radical thing for US to do" he said.

GOVERNMENT AND BUSINESS.

The Manufacturer: One Of the
lessons of war will be very valuable
to our country If we learn 1t right
what should be the attitude Of
government towards business.
It goes without saying that inso-
far as government hampers and
handicaps industries and commerce
the people and the government it.
self will suffer. This was shown by
the attitude of state and federal
governments In holding lines too
stringent in regulation of railroads
and utilities. Ten years of over
regulation left common carriers and
public utilities in a crippled and
broken-down condition when we en-
tered war. Now all this slack and
lack of development must be taken
up by spending billion dollars a
year on railroads and enormous in
creases in rates.
President Wilson and Secretary
McAdoo say utilities must be placed
on paying basis and must be CIV
IN rates to earn fair incomes. II
this is not done speedily how can
they pay their war taxes, and how
can they be made an asset of gov
eminent in war time?
OF course there will be cheap pol
iticians and unpatriotic agitators
who will invoke referendums when
higher rates are granted utilities.
The attitude of government towards
idustries and utilities must become
constructive and helpful instead of
holding aloof with hostility.
The politician whose main stock
in trade has been desire of pose
before people as an enemy of big
business is not a friend of the ma
ton. Professional politics-the no.
bile occupation of fishing for votes
and doing it blindly and indiffer-
emily to results upon business. Is
not patriotism.

NURSES WANTED.

Wanted: $4,000 women to en-
roll in the United States Student
Nurse Reserve.
The Government is calling for
$4,000 young women to join the
United States Student Nurse Re-
serve and hold themselves in readi-
ness to train for nurses.
The war is creating an unprec-
edented demand for trained nurses.
Only those who have taken the full
training course are eligible for ser
vice with our forces overseas. These
nurese are being drawn largely from
our hospitals at home. Their plac-
es must be filled by student nurses
enrolled for the full training course
Of from two to three years. Every
young woman who enrolls in the
United States Student Reserve Is re-
leasing q nurse for service at the
front and swelling the home army
which we must rely on to act as
our second line Of hospital defense.
Upon the health Of the American
people will depend the spirit Of
their fighting forces.
Age.-The call is for women be-
tween the ages of nineteen and thir-
ty-five.
Observation-Disclosures. re-
sp0nsible women Of good education
and sound health are wanted-the
pick of the country. A college ed
ucation is q valuable asset. and
many hospitals will give credit for
it. Credit will also be given for a
special scientific equipment or for
preliminary training in nursing,
such as that given In special cours-
es now being conducted by various
colleges and schools. Some schools,
ON the other hand. do not require
even full high school education.

The Orofino Tribune continues to
nowl about counting the tress" for
assessment purposes. And Clear
water county only recently. at big
expense, went to court to stop the
payment of some 100000 that
democratic county board was to
pay one Nease for doing this very
counting, and for which the people
have now paid more than $4,000.
Mr.. Hinckley has assessed ON the
Nease cruise provided ut the sug-
gestion Of the Tribune and that is
not apparently satisfactory to the
Tribune. Does the Tribune mean to
say that in case 1t Is successful. In
the coming county election that the
democrats will give the county an
other cruise, at . cost OF some $780,
10000? Or. II the Tribune is right
and means that Hinckley should do
the cruising. will 1t explain why it
was necessary for . democratic as

contract for cruise 1T cost to
the people of about $70,000.00? It
will certainly not be urged that the
