WHAT THE BOYS WANT IN FRANCE

The following letter has been re-
ceived by one of the American boys
who is now in the army in France
He Is right there and knows the real
needs of the men He says:
The soldiers do not need money.
Most of them have too much for their
own good now. They do not need
clothing. The army stores are pro-
vided with the best of clothing at ri
diculously low prices heavy over
coats are 50. the best army shoes in
the world are 81. excellent wooden
SOCKS are IL cents a pair. They don't
need Bull Durham or Spearmint (al-
though there has been a shortage).
Nineteen tons of Bull Durham is COM
Ing In one ship now, and 1000 worth
of Spearmint is also on the way, both
as guarantee of real orders to fol-
low.
What the soldiers need: Books, not
Sunday school lesson sheets. nor med
itations on cemetery, but just the
best human books of charm and story
that the world produces. There should
be library of such at every camp.
They need magazines of the type Of
Saturday Evening Post Popular Sci
ence Monthly. Adventure, and the
popular magazines. There should be
five of each of these, and others of the
same order in every camp of a thou
sand soldiers. They need good mu-
sic library of scores of the best popu-
lar songs and instrumental selections
The best way to suppress vulgar
songs and ragtime is to have the best
at hand. The Y. M. c. A. is providing
games galore, study classes of all
kinds, movies, lectures and religious
meetings. The chief need that 1t cam
not supply is an adequate quantity of
books, magazines and music. AT one
camp where books and papers were
scarce there was an unabridged Web
ster dictionary. I saw that dictionary
occupied day after day during the en-
tire time the soldiers were in the hut
and part of the time two men would
bend over it, not looking up words for
letters to their sweethearts, but read
ing 1t column by column.
"The problem Is to interest the SOL
diers in good things every moment he
is off duty. That done, our boys will
return to America better than they
came to France; that not done, many
Of them had better be buried in
France"

Camp Lewis. To let them off with

Both Senators Poindexter and
Jones of this state voted against
the bill to lease government coal
lands, which passed the senate
Monday. Present holders Of
natural resources are opposed to
opening up the government lands
to lease by others, and all senator's
whose friends or hackers are in
terested in retaining control of
these necessities, voted against
the bill, which has been before the
senate four years. Men like
Chamberlain of Oregon and john
son Of California supported the
bill. Senator Poindexter has at
all times voted against opening
up the government lands to lease
and competition with the monopo-
lies, but this time Senator Jones
joined in the losing movement to
retard the development of the
country's resources.
We notice some publications
make hysterical effort to avoid
the words "draft'' and "con-
scription," evidently under the
belief that they are ill-ftted words
to use. In a monarchy, it might
be so. In a democracy, we fail to
see why. Some Of this nations
greatest men have been drafted
into government service-and
they go willingly. In this state,
and in this county, the men in
charge Of the various war COM
mittees have all been drafted by
the government. They did not
step up and ask for the job. The
job was handed to them, and they
were told to serve. They did
serve, and they are serving, and
it is not only an honor to serve
this country as a man drafted for
a particular duty, but it is worth
while to live in a country where
it's men can be picked for the
work to be done, and where the
men respond readily and will.

SATAN ABDICATES IN FAVOR OF

Louis Syberkrop Of Creston, Ia, has
acquired much fame in recent weeks
as author of a satire on Kaiser Will
helm Requests have come to him from

The man who subscribes for q

tised as patriot for doing so, is
not patriot if he Immediately
sells that bond on the market

subscription to bond that helps
a government; it is by actually
lending money to the government
and not by merely promising it
and shifting the load to someone
else that the citizen really helps
in this great time. There is no de-
sire, however, on the part of the
government to prevent or to inter-
fere with the freedom of legiti-

The nation is making note
worthy progress in eliminating
waste and in putting it's idle dol
lars at work to win the war. The
figures lately given out by the
United States food administra-
tiOn, showing that the dining car
service Of the railroads during
October and November saved, as
compared with the same months
the previous year, 469,50S pounds
of meat, 23s,O93 pounds of wheat
flour and 25,699 pounds of sugar,
Notwithstanding an increase of 20
per cent in the number of persons
fed, disclose nation wide
tendency to conserve the food
supply. In the same way, large
preliminary sales of War Savings
Stamps and Thrift Stamps show
that the public is taking kindly
to the suggestion of lending it's
half dollars, quarters, nickles and
pennies to help win the war. This
movement is of great Importance
in so rich country as the United
States, whose inhabitants in the
past have been thought to be
notoriously wasteful. But the i'm
pOrtant reduction shown in waste
represented by the family gar
bage can in more than forty cities
shows that the representations Of
the food administration have been
taken to heart by the average
family. There is reason to believe
that the War Savings Stamp cru
SADIE will prove to be as successful
in the United States as it was in
Great Britain where more than
100000 people joined the war
savings associations up to the
close of last June.
In President Wilson's address
to congress, there appears a par
agraph that serves as basis for
the hope that the administration
will get actively behind the gen.
eral leasing bill which will open
the resources Of the west to de-
velopment. He says that the time
has now come when the wealth
contained in the remaining por-
tions of the public domain should
be relieved of the restrictions i'm
posed by policy that has kept
that wealth out of use. The
strange anolomy has been wit
messed of a public of producers
and consumers preventing,
through it's government, the pro-
duction and, consequently, the
consumption, of much needed ma
terial of a mineral nature. The
want Of that material has cOntin-
ued to exist, but it has taken our
participation in the war, to bring
that fact out sharply.
A reasonable inference deriv-
able from his message, indicates
that the president has decided
that the oil, phosphates, water
