All counties should be represented.
The lads will live in the frat houses

Word has been received here Of the
marriage Of Miss Marjorie Adair,
daughter of DIR. and Mrs. w. A. Adair,
and Lieutenant Alfred j. Lyon, at

successfully passed the night flying

aviation, and test that very few can
pass. He has been very anxious to
go to France and engage in fighting,
but is being held here because of his
ability as an instructor.
The bride is too well known to
need introduction to Moscow people.
She was born, reared and educated in
Moscow. Her parents are DR.. and |
Mrs. w. A. Adair, pioneers Of this
place, and host of friends will wish |
the young couple all the joy that
belongs to such a happy
union.

MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FEWER PARTIsAN-MoRE PATRIOTS

Less partisanship and patriotism is undoubted-
ly one of the marked tendencies of politics.
Few will be elected to office this fall
who do not uphold highest national aspirations
President Wilson has a standard in public
affairs in backing the reelection of Senator Nelson
in Minnesota
Nelson is big of the opposite political faith
but has unreservedly supported the administration in
the conduct of the war.
In Michigan, Henry Ford, the republican nominee
for United States senator, has also been made the
democratic nominee.
Asking to 'become party candidate,
although he is not of fod but because of his 10y
atty and support of the nations policy is the
right spirt-the American spirit that will win the
support of patriotic who place country above
party.
The higher standard Of Americanism is reflected in
the request of the San Francisco Chamber of Com
merce that the highest type of citizens be asked to

REDUCE POLITICS TO NECESSARY MINIMUM
The editor of the Laramie Republican, who is
of political matters. He says:
"Let us have little politics possible this year
and that little of the very best. And who is
not high in support of the government should be
considered for a moment The winning of the is
the first consideration"
In his last address to congress few days Pres
dent Wilson very aptly said Politics is adjourned"
He further asserted that the party who devoes
the least attention partsanshp would probably make
the greatest progress with the people.
Of this does not that there will be
elections this year. There must be elections. They
provided for by law. 1t is perfectly proper that
the political parties should strive in dignfied way
to the of their principles and their
didates-Wyoming State Tribune.

ANT NO GUY IN ROCHE ARMY so NEAR-SIGHTED HE
 CAN'T SEE US AMERICANS

Among the spells of war recovered by the American soldiers in the victo- rious fighting through the Chateau Thierry region are numerous pairs of fine binoculars hastily discarded by German officers. In some sections where the Yankees had been obliged to move "tout de suite," it seemed to have been raining fild glasses when the victors reached the scene.
 A canteen worker attached to one of the Y. M. c. A. huts near the front was talking with "hard guy" in olive drab. The "hard guy" was from East St. Louis and, judging from his con versation, he had been one of the social leaders of the town.
 "Why is it," said the Red Triangle man, that the Germans throw away so many pairs of binoculars when they get ready to beat it? The glasses weigh practically nothing, and as they are attached to strap hung around the neck, they wouldn't be any trouble to carry. l can understand soldier shedding his overcoat, knapsack, rifle | and tin hat if he was Tn hurry to get thither from hither, but why un- load an article that is expensive and hard to get at any price when it is as small and light as a pair of field glasses?"
 "Listen, bo," replied the East St. Louis soldier. "The Huns ain't mak- ing no sucker play when they cans them field cheaters. They know some thing, does them Heinies. After goin' up agin us Tanks couple of times they savvy that they ain't goin' to need no glasses to see us cause we're goin' to be right on toppa lem. No, sir ;when they was chasin' them Roos- ians all over the map over on the east iron they had to have glasses to see their prey; but they ain't no guy in the Boche army that is so near-sight- ed he won't see us Americans if he just sticks around. What them birds figure they need is speed, not glasses. And take it from me, that ain't bad figurin, either"

MISS GRACE WILLIAMS
 DOING HER BIT IN FRANCE

Miss Grace Williams, formerly a stenographer in the Arizona Central Bank, who gave up her pleasant work here to do her bit in France when an emergency call for stenographers came from the government, in letter on business matters to John Zalaha, writes of her work overseas:
 clo Rue de PElysees,

 Dear Mir. Zalaha: Have been here only week, but long enough to know the work is very hard. We work under very trying conditions; about 150 people in one log room, with little typewriter tables as close as they can be put. There are not enough machines to go around and I've worked on four different makes of machines since I've been here-whichever happens to be idle I get. They have the "Noiseless" for the greater part, with a keyboard like the Oliver. I know why the rangers used to swear when they had to use one. I think often of my nice new Underwood that I gave up and some times wish I were back using it. How ever, believe things will be more set tied soon. The big guns started three days ago. For awhile they went off every twenty minutes and came pretty close to where room. They certainly make a wicked noise and almost jump out of my chair when they burst However, am becoming more accus- toned to the explosions.
 The American R. c. is certainly un- dertaking and doing a tremendous work here, and whenever I think of how generously our people are giving 1t strengthens my determination to do my best.

 France, August 16, 1918. My Dear Father:
 l am making you copy of a few notes jotted down at random, that is, written when pen or pencil were avail able, and when not too lazy to write. They begin with the day before we left our training camp for certain front and run up to date. If these could be saved would enjoy reading them when the war is won.
 The day before leaving we turned in all blankets but one, then the billet where thirty of us were quartered, the second story of barn, was given the only cleaning it has had in history.
 The men are pretty much" excited About half of them made up theii packs IS hours in advance. The rest of us doubled up in the one blanket shelter half and slicker, and put in a good nights freeze. I rustled up g few candles and read Lorna Doone. stole the book from the Y. M. c. A About midnight went to put the book in a kit of clothes and found them scattered about here and there. A fellow in the next bunk rolled over an. said that he had undone the kit ant was using my sweater to keep his head warm. He had made his pacl early in the day and was then paying for over-vigilance.
