DR.. STELZLE SAYS TODAY:
"Our People Are Not the Only
People"
by the REV. CHARLES sTELzLE.

In a recent military parade in New
York City the various nationalities
became responsible for floats through
which they expressed, in picturesque
tashlon, their contribution to the
worlds history.
That presented by the Syrians-
rather an insignificant race. most of
us would say-was preceded by ban
ner upon which appeared this explain
atory statement:
THE first Syrian expedition that
conquered the world"
And then came the float.
Surrounding a man who sat upon
slightly raised throne or pedestal
were twelve patriarchal men. who
seemed to be listening most intently
to their leader, who impersonated
Jesus.
And this is the command He was
giving them:

HAS NOT FORGOTTEN HIS
FRIENDS In PAYETTE

We are in receipt Of a letter from
David C. Peters, Pastor Of the
Christian Church at Honolulu, Ha-
waiia, in which he mentions an edi-
torial comment in the Enterprise Of
Payette's contribution OF men to
the Army and Navy and tn reeogni :
ton that should be given them. He
thought perhaps it might be of inter
est to the people of Psyette to know
that eighty-one men out Of the mem
bership of his Church are wearing
the L. S. uniform. In recognition Of
these men service flag for the
Christian Church at that place was
at the evening service on
January goth, bearing 81 stars.
Rev. Peters, while many miles
across the water, has never been
weaned away from his many friends
in Payette and Payette Valley, and
sends his personal greetings to them
all whom he still locks upon with a
feeling of friendship.

DELIVERS GOOD
LECTURE

The lecture by Montaville Flow
ers at the Christian Church Monday
evening has done more to arouse the
people to action on the war sttua--
tion than all other lectures we have
had put together. It was a master
piece in every respect. How one
man could compile the vast aaount
of knowledge and present it in one
evening is wonder. 1t is knowledge
we must make use Of We have gone
into this war at the eleventh hour
and we must move fast. Our time,
attention and money must be given
to the cause of freedom rather than
to the accumulation of wealth. Too
many of our American citizens have
taken advantage of the situation and
have become millionairs in the last
few years, What are our millions
worth to US if our aims in this war
ara lost. Every man, woman and
child has part to perform in this
great conflict, and We must do it
now. We are sending our young
men who are making the greatest
sacrifice. They are offering their
lives. They are sacrificing their aims
and opportunities in life, and We
who remain at home must do all
within our power to back them up.
There are many branches OF war ac-
tiyities which offer US that opportun-
ity. ANY man who refuses to do whstI
he can is a Stacker and a traitor tol
his country. The man who seeks to
accumulate wealth at the expense
of those who sacrifice, is worse. Let
is pay our money cheerfully; live up
to the rules and regulations of our
Government without complaining; ans
make the war our business aim until
We have won the victory.

COUNTY
RED CROSS

A week ago Friday evening the
Community Association in Dist. No
Is, enjoyed social gathering which
was a "Pie Social" The ladies do
mated the pies, the gentle men bat
the pies, the pies going to the
highest bidder. The purchaser then
shared the pie with the doner. The
fine sum of $500 was realized. The
nice part about this was the Associa-
ton sent the money to the Red
Cross. The Red Cross wishes to
thank them for this help.
A correction should be made about
Mr.. Gutterridge's contribution to ths
Red Cross, which in the last finan--
cial statement was printed as 81.
1t should have been s5 contribution
and IS for membership, a total of
$40. Since that time, Mr.. Gutter
ridge has given another s15. The
Red Cross will gladly list on their
book the name of any other person
wishing to do the same.
The Civilian Relief Committee is
working hard this week in attempt
ing to get in touch with all families
who have members at the front.
February II is the last day for the
soldiers to take advantage of insur-
ance privileges, that is if the SOL
der has been in service 120 days.
The committee is doing all they
can to have the boys take out this
insurance.
Attention People. This week four
sewing machines which belong to
the High School must be returned as
the Domestic Art girls take up sew
ing next week. This means the Red
Cross must have machines to re-
place these. If you have a machine
which is not in use, you would be
doing good deed to let the Red
Cross use it for a few weeks.
The Electrical Machine, donated by
the Idaho Power Company, is much
appreciated, and does the work of
,wo or three ordinary machines.

Y M C A NOTES

To those who are interested in
Mind, Muscle, and Morsls, 1 wish
to say that we are planning a pro-
gram that will ably assist in char
acter and body making to all those
who care to share enough time to
become one of the participants.
We have learned within the last
day of several business men who
are willing to line up for gym
classes. We want just few more
names before We begin these class
es. We want YOU to be one of us.
Join the Health Hall Bunch. Our
program of activities will be full
of FUN, the kind that makes you
forget all your business, aches and
paines, and makes you feel like a
new man. TRY IT.
Ladies do not loose sight of the
fact that we want you to share this
program with the rest. We surely
can make a live interesting pro-
gram and have it tell for your
good. But this can only be done by
having you participate in the Class
work. You must become part of
the program and the class. We es-
pecially invite the office girls or
ladies who get little or no exercise.
Hand in your name or phone saying
count upon me fer that ladies class.
Pubs back that old dead line. Plan
for that bodily exercise. 1t will
aid toward your efficiency. Get your
Gym outfit ready and be prepared
for the command to line up.
Did you ever stop to think of
the emphasis that Uncle Sam places
upon the athletic activities; The
set--up exercises are apart of each
days routine. Ye, more than that,
they are the essential factors, for
they begin the day with these set
up exercises. If Uncle Sam recognizes
the Importance of those exercises
why don't We. The argument is all
in favor of the exercises so get in
line for physical efficiency.
On Monday afternoon February
the 18th at O'Clock the Ladies Aux
iliary of the Y. NJ. c. A. will hold
their regular monthly NEE ting. Busi--
ness of importance demands that all
members that can possibly arrange,
try and be present.
The regular monthly meeting Of
the Board of Directors will be held
in the Ladies Rest Room Thursday
evening at O'Clock.
We have a few nicely furnished
rooms in our dormitory department
for rent. The rates are reasonable
and include stationary, heat, lights,
and the usa of the showers.
Our Employment bureau is open
to those that have need of men and
to men that are in search of work.
Kindly call for all information dea--
ing with positions offered on file.
If you are in need of help specify
the kind Of work offered, the place,
and the wages paid for said work.
Any friend of the Association who
