WHAT THE NEWSPAPERS ARE GIVING

The government has been asked to appropriate One
Hundred Million Dollars to pay the newspapers for adj
yertisng Liberty Loan Bonds and War Savings Stamps

nearly enough to pay for the space the government
will require.

NEWS FROM BOYS IN KHAKI go


Mrs. l. A. Hawley of Viola has re-
ceived the following letter from l. A.
HawIey, who is with the American
expeditionery forces in France:
Somewhere in France, Feb. IT,
They say that this is Sunday eve
ming, but it is hard to see, as every
day is about the same. My work to-
day was rather easy and consider
able different from what it usually is.
A few evenings ago we had a music
al treat by the Y M. c.. A. in trio
The pianoist was Mele Floria Scha-
cogler, who had won first prize at
the Paris Conservatory of Music
She was certainly good, but hardly
what | expected. The violinist was
M. Jean Nestoresen, who had been a
PLAYER in the court of the queen or
Rumania before the war and had fled
to England as a stowaway. He GER
tainIy was fine The third was an
American lady,. Mrs. Kennedy, who
sings for us good deal. She has
very sweet voice and l am always
glad to hear her, although there is
nothing classy to it.
Another evening we had a movie
show. Between the films they used
two filters: one was a Frenchman "a
soldier home from the trenches) who
could initiate various birds and ami
mails very cleyerly The other was
an old mana Y. M. G. A. worker
who spoke on nothing and who said
nothing but who kept us laughing
nevertheless. They say that back in
Connecticut that he is man OF no
small Importance, wealthy and per-
sonal friend of President Wilson. L
do not know as to that but do know
that during reels he sat down among
us smoking cigarettes (not cigars)
and that he was one of the biggest
fools among us. Also some French
musicians helped out that night.
I suppose that the Y. M. c. A. fur
nishes us with about two entertain
ments each week aside from holding
church services on Sunday. / noticed

About o'clock we put our blankets
on our horses and started back to
camp. Arrived there at $50 p M,
tired and hungry, but in all it was a
mighty fine day.
You ask about my clothing. I am
well supplied with clothes and lots of
socks.
Friday night G.. R. S. and l went
to the Liberty theater and heard
Maud Powell, the violinist. She was
certainly wonderful and tomorrow
night we have a chance to hear
Madam Melba sing.
Saturday noon we went to Olympia
stayed all night at Wilson's. She is
the same jolly person as ever. l

MIR. VAN DEUsEN's LETTER

Elsewhere this issue publish letter from the
office of auditor Van relating to the fin
ances of the university which intended to be reply
by Van Deusen interview given by Dr.. Bryan
to the Boise Statesman.
At the last session of the legislature passed
House Bill No. 316, which provided method of
handling educational funds. After its passage it was
found that its provisions in conflict with
federal and other state laws.
How these funds shall be handled is now question
confronting the board of education board of examiners
the treasury and the state auditor difference
opinion developed but in the main all the officers
agreed except the state auditor who insists that
they will handled according his idea not at all:
attitude that federal funds belonging
university have become available; the courts
to resorted to and the work of the educa-
tonal system of the state hampered.
If Clarence Van Deusen sent out his letter to further
his candidacy for reelection he has made mistake.
No any intelligence read his letter with
recognizing the childish bias and ignorance
tanned therein and endeavor to drag the educa
tional system of the state into politics by nsnuang
that there is educational party in the state
He speaks of he federal funds and the desire of
some to allow "the officials of the university at
Moscow handle nearly $3OOO0OOO two years for
which the state Idaho is responsible for it's proper
expenditure but knows where it goes" Mr..
Van Deusen knpws that the federal funds are
the direct supervision of federal officers, that
these funds must be expended in accordance with the
federal law, that they audited each by fed
eral officer; that each drawn thereon is
proved by board education and itemized state
ment all expenditures is submitted each to the
executive officers of the state Mr. Van Deusen knows
this and knows at any time he obtain exact
statement of the status of all federal funds and that said
funds have been expended in accordance with law.
We inclined to believe that Mr.. Van Deusens
letter to the press which he much desired to have
published will be boomerang to his political aspira
tions That it will the and the people to
take the attitude expressed in editorial appearing
in the Pend Oreille Review and which we quote In
part
"But between Dr. Bryan and Van Deusen, in any
controversy which may arise the state choose be-
of absolute integrity and of long establish
ed business reputation and the professional accountant
who made his minor office in the state
ment by methods which he is employing to call
attention to himself the of another campaign
AS between Dr. Bryan and Clarence Van Deusen there
is all the difference there is between Packard and
Ford with a flat wheel
"Dr. Bryan will probably consider the and
inspiration of the attack and he may have other things
to do with his time than to shoe flies"
