IDAHO FAR BEHIND
ON WAR SAVINGS
JUDGE FORNEY LEAVES SICK
BED TO MAKE APPEAL
FOR BETTER SUPPORT

Judge Forney, after months i'll
ness, is again taking up the War
Savings Stamp drive. He states to
our reporter that Idaho has only con-
tributed one dollar and forty cents
per capita. That the apportionment
for Idaho is eight million dollars.
First he wishes every person in
Latah county to buy Liberty Bond
or a War-Savings certificate. If in
doubt about which to buy, take both.
He wishes to corrall all the little
neighborhood, church, school, office
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1918-04-20

He wants to borrow money, ano
you should lend it to him.
Your duty to your country is as
fixed as your obligation to youl
family.
This is literally true, because if
you do not maintain the integrity of
your government your wife is no
longer secure in your home nor your
children safe in their school.
Mind you, Uncle Sam does not ask
you to give this money, he merely
wants you to lend it.
Every penny you can afford to adj
vance is that much for your own use
in the tranquil days when humanity
shall have emerged from this agony
of blood and carnage.
You may respond as freely as you
will, in the assurance that your mon
ey will not be used for the hateful
CHASTITY business of conquest.
1t will be spent to soothe the hurts
of those who are manned, to feed
those who are hungry, to clothe those
who are not clad, to shelter those who
are homeless, and to grid Liberty
hosts for their mighty task
Of crushing the brutal, disappearing
plunderer who has so shamelessly
the peace and honor of the
world and all but made it captive.

IS THE PRESIDENCY yrctk17

Congress proposes TO make the vice
president president indeed while Presl-
dent Wilson is abroad with his retinuo
and those fifty famous cooks which
the dispatches relate ne carries with
him. That is resolutions in both
both houses propose approximately the
same thing.
George T. Etmunds who IS given
the credit by the New York Times Of
the best constitutional lawyer living
who has served in the senate offers the
opinion:
II is my belief that the president by
going abroad will. for the time being,
cease to possess his executive power.
He cannot delegate those powers It
Will be the duty Of the vice president
to carry on the government.
BY leaving the country the president
has brought on legal discussion and
perhaps a clash Of authority to say the
least extremely regretrable + not
dangerous. The functions Of the prosi-
dent Of the United States can not be
suspended while tn president abseHts
himself for an indefinite period. There
are important papers that can not await
the return Of a president from across
seas, and these important functions Of
all kinds are not lie exercised by the
vice president as vice president,

That seems to be the attitude OF the officers and
men at the front towards the Red Triangle Much
Obliged and we appreciate it-say if it wasn't for
the "Y" we sure would be up against it."
I'm going ahead to some Of the observation posts -
the "Y" man told me- Want to take chance?" 4
We arrived at town and found lieutenant sit.
ting down in trench Before him a narrow slit
opened into a ple-and into utter backness.
HOW OBSERVER WORKS
Observation post said my conductor.
The lieutenant was glad to see u.s. especially when
l told him was SO recently from home and took
us within. There in little room in which one could
barely stand upright was the paraphernaa by which
the Hun is supervised in his goings and comings and
by which our artillery is informed II it is hitting the
mark. -a ,..>
Facing the Hun was narrow horizontal slit across
the wall Over this hung curtain because Fritz in
his observation posts across No Mans Land might
see that slit through his glasses If light allowed
to pass through it and then very shortly there would
be no observation post Provided 1t suited Fritz's
humor to abolish it.
9 We looked through the glasses at the beautiful
mountain slope opposite famous in the history Of
the war, and which now is the most formidable bar
in the way OF troops II they set out to take back
from Germany city which France claims for her
own. With the naked eye this mountain slope seems
quiet and peaceful There is no sign of life not
even Of smoke from mess fire. Through the glasses,

Just then a shell came over and burst on top Of

US, and maybe 1t was just warning for us to be-

they wanted to. Say, Wharton" Wharton was the

High in the air over our heads we could hear the
paning.mill hum Of couple of American aeroplanes
taking a look-see. They we're not fighting planes,
but observation planes. Their duty was to get more
direct and accurate Information than could be had
from any listening post.
'"This morning the Boche got one out there" said
the lieutenant. "They were after him with machine
guns. l saw he was in trouble and saw him coming
down. His machine was on fre and he jumped out
with his hands up. He hadn't q chance And they
came out and got him"
The Bismarck tribune., 1918-08-14

Up at the front with the American army are two
jobs closely related fhey are one-the artillery
mans and the observers. The first delivers the
goods the second tells him what doorstep to leave 1t
on, and corrects any misapprehensions he may have
to where he is leaving it. sas,sSs, tE sv&s J..
During the night there had been tremendous bar
rage. Hundreds Of guns Of all sizes and voices had
made it exceedingly uncomfortable for Fritze, who
stones throw away The guns had fred for two
hours and our fellows had gone over, the top and
come back with prisoners and captured machine
guns. In the morning went back to :he nearest bat
terry to ask how they went about 1t.
The battery consisted Of French nneties and
seventy 1ves. They were hidden away in bomb

A general showed US his wall map Of the vicinity
which was marked every German trench and post,
every stone and blade Of grass it seemed, and then
explained the barrage. ls5za
PURPOSES OF BARRAeE
"The theory was to wall in that section Of
trenches" he said Part Of the guns enclosed the
locality in barrage while others of .us played on
the communicating trenches to keep reinforcements
from coming up. The idea is to keep In the area all

observers, Z was the curt answer. I'VE know the
location Of the trench and then register upon It, The
observers correct our fire until we have the range
exactly, and then wait for the time Orders come
that there will be such and such barrage on "J"
day and zero hour. And we are ready"
The thing that tapped one on the shoulder about
these boys their attitude toward the guns. They
seemed to feel toward them as a person might feel
toward splendid fighting bull dog.
The seventyhves called out the highest esteem.
