ADVERTISING SOLD
LIBERTY BONDS
INTERESTING FACTS CONCERN
ING THE FOURTH LIBERTY
LOAN CAMPAIGN

The advertising and publicity cam
paign for the fourth Liberty loan was
the greatest ever put on in a single month
in the west, according to a compilation
just made from reports of state chairmen
of the seven states of the Twelfth Fed
eral Reserve district The record dis
tribution of the loan is considered large
1y one of the results of this comprehen-
sivc campaign, as well as the total sub
scription which is practically double that
of any former loan.
In addition to oversubscribing the dis
trict quota by IS per cent, citizens of the
Twelfth district contributed more than
half million dollars to put through the
advertising campaign planned by George
A. Van Smith, manager of publicity for
the second third and fourth loans. With
this money more than 5000 advertising
pages were paid for in the newspapers
of the district These pages were sent
out in mat or plate form by the San
Francisco office
The preference of newspapers and
committees of the district for advertising
copy prepared by the general publicity
committee in San Francisco over copy
prepared by national headquarters is
shown by the use of three and one-half
times as many pages of district copy as
national copy. Both displays were sub
mitted on the same basis.
According to the reports, President
Wilson is shown to be the best ad writer
or the most popular subject Full pages
carrying his Liberty loan statement were
used more times than any other adver-
tisement. The President Abraham Lin
coin page was second. This copy carried
a likeness of the immortal Lincoln with
the phrase "That these dead shall not
have died in vain," and the drawing
showed Americans at Hun barb-wire |
Copy making use of the
Stars and Stripes was third in popular
ity while the prize winner of the dis
.rict advertising contest was fourth. I
Atrocity copy was sixth.
San Francisco newspapers are believed |
% have given the loan more publicity |
than any city of the district and Van
Smith feels assured that the record of
Il $50 inches has not been exceeded by
my city in the United States in proper
ion to size or the number of newspapers.

The attractive cut just above is a
reproduction of the Red Cross Christ
mas seals which will be issued free
this year to every person who an
swers to the Christmas roll call by
paying the dollar membership fee.
Ten of these very pretty and signifi
cant seals will be given out with every
Red Cross receipt and every Red
Cross button. The members are
asked to paste the seals on the backs
of letters and on Christmas packages
in order to carry everywhere the gos-
pei of the fight to be waged against
tuberculosis.
After it was discovered by army
and navy statistics that literally hun
dreds of thousands of young men are
afflicted with the great white plague,
the Red Cross decided to undertake
as one of its principal tasks this year,
thcsstamping out of the disease which
annually unfits for life SO large part
of Americas greatest resources-her
young men.
Heretofore the seals have been
sold independently of the Red Cross
membership. This year the public
gets the seals free when they join
the summons to the great comrade-
ship of the Red Cross Christmas roll
call for universal membership.

RED CROSS DRIVE
TO BEGIN. MONDAY
THREE BOOTHS TO BE OPENED
TO RECEIVE MEMBERSHIPS
FOR NEXT YEAR

On Monday next there will be set up
three booths for the receiving of mem
bership dues of one dollar each for the
annual roll call of the American Red
Cross. These booths will be located in
the postoffice, in Veatch Realty COM
pany's office on Main street, and at the
university. The public is earnestly urged
to renew membership on the first day of
the drive.
The demands made upon the Red Cross
next year will be enormous The Am
erican Red Cross is about to embark
upon undertakings vast in scope and
sacred in purpose. The obligations to
millions of soldiers and sailors, and the
depended obligations to all the allies
will call next year for tremendous en-
ergy, broad wisdom profound humanity,
and great sum of money with which
to carry on the humanitarian work that
has been planned The spiritual aspect
of the American Red Cross should be
manifest this year as never before, and
it can be made manifest only through
the most spontaneous and complete re-
sponse to Christmas roll call.
Moscow and Latah county are counted
ready now to help the nation reach the
goal of universal membership. Every
American in this county is invited to be
come member of the Red Cross during
the week preceding Christmas.
The American people have a chance
to make to the year 1919 a Christmas
gift of the first magnitude if they will,
through joining the Red Cross Christ
mas roll call at this Yule-tide season,
proclaim to the world their moral and
spiritual support of the achievement of
freedom for the human race.

SIXTEEN KILLED
IN BERLIN RIOTS
CLASH OF DESERTERS AND SOL
DIERS RESULTS IN KILLING
WOMEN AND CHILDREN

BERLIN. N.-The clash between gov
ernment troops and the followers of
the Spartacus or radical group re-
suited in from II to 16 persons being
killed, according to various reports.
The number of wounded is not expect
ed to exceed so. Severed girls who
were passengers on a streetcar were
among those killed.
1t appears that the audience from
one of the three meetings of desert
ers from the army was marching
northward in Chaussee strasse to join
the audience from a meeting held in
hall further north. The Fusilier
Guards were drawn up at the inter-
section of Invaliden strasse, and the
commander warned the people to dis
perse. The marchers were crying,
forward. the soldiers won't shoot
their comrades" The marchers tried
to pierce the line whereupon the or
der to fire was given. Besides the
wounded several were badly hurt
rushing through broken show WIN
dows seeking cover.
Storm Editorial Rooms.
A group of soldiers stormed the
editorial rooms of Karl Liebknecht's
newspaper and attempted to destroy
the plant. Frustrated in their raid on
Cnc newspaper OIIlCC NY 6ONOA hAAASAAo
orders, the soldiers then attempted to
arrest the members of the executive
committee of the soldiers and work
mems council, the soldiers apparently
laboring under the misapprehenslon
that their officer had been ordered by
the government to make the arrests.
This occurred at the same hour as
the clash between the government
troops and the Spartacus insurgents.
The executive committee was holding
a meeting in the former Prussian
house of deputies. The chamber was
invaded by the armed forces and de-
mand for the surrender of the council
of 20 in the name Of the Ebert-Haase
government. Peoples Commissioner
Barth, who also is a member OF the
committee, faced the invaders with a
challenge for their authority.
Detain Insurgent Leaders.
Meanwhile inquiry was made at
government headquarters and result
ed in the detention of the leaders
of the insurgent forces who were
armed with hand weapons and flame
throwers, for the purpose OF estab-
fishing responsibility for the at
tempted revolution. 1t developed that
the men had been invited by unat-
tached officers to meet at given
hour at the Brandenberg gate for the
purpose of raiding and overthrowing
the soldiers and workmen's commit
tee, as such action, they were told,
was demanded in the interests OF the
government, and FUR
thermore, that it was certain to meet
with public approval.
The raid proved complete f1asco,
as did also similar attempt an hour |
later, which apparently was planned |
by DR.. Liebknecht's followers, as 1T
was announced at their meeting.

key-eared man, and he laid his head
down on the table. And, would you
believe it, Puss took up his Magic
Ak and placed 1t carefully on the
table and then he said: "ChOp! chop!
chop" and of went the long. hairy
ears, and the next minute two ears
grew in their place; the right kind
of ears, you know; just like yours
and mine.
Well, the next morning Puss said
good-by and went upon his way,
and, by and by, after a while, he
came to a place where two white
rabbits were playing hide-and-seek
under the bushes. So Puss stopped
and said:
Hello, little white rabbitsr' And
OF course, they were dreadfully
frightened, because they had never
seen a cat with red top boots be-
fore.
Don't be afraid Of me-" said
Puss, gently. IL won't harm you"
Well, this pleased the little rabbits
and they told .Puss they would take
him to see the King. So of they
all went. and by and by they came
to the castle of the King. II was a
very beautiful palace, let me tell
you, with high turrets and a silver
moat around it and a great draw
bridge across to cross over on.
And when they came quite near,
one Of the little rabbits took a gold
whistle out of his pocket and blew
upon it, and the other little rabbit
waved a blue and white flag, and
then the drawbridge opened and
they all crossed over.
"Our master, the King. is a very
kind man." whispered the little rab-
bit with the gold whistle, but you
mustn't forget to bow every time
he speaks to you. And the little
rabbit who carried the flag whis-
pered to Puss. "Our master, the
King, is a very kind man, but you
mu~tn't forget to whistle once In a
while"
So Puss said, "I'll remember what
you tell me-" and just then the
castle gates opened and a large
white rabbit. with a very pink nose,
stood before them.
He's the Kings Prime Minister"
whispered both little rabbits under
their breath, and in the next story
you shall hear what happened after
that.
