ASK TO SEE OUR PLAN BOOKS

We have prepared books of plans for all buildings

The proceedings in their entirety
indicated clearly and conclusively a
purpose to push and pursue a for
ward-looking, forward-stepping cam
paign that would appeal to the
American people and thus insure a
restoration Ct the Republican party
to power.
Naturally the sudden, almost
tragic, death of Theodore Roosevelt
was uppermost in the minds of all.
Chairman Hays alluded feelingly to
the party's loss and the country's
loss In submitting his report, and
voiced the sentiment of the COM
mittee In declaring that 1T is
difficult to discuss the death of
Theodore Roosevelt. The ideals for
which he spent his life shall not

ism shall not be forgotten"
Memorial For Roosevelt.
BY an unanimous vote the COM
mittee undertook to sponsor a per-
manent Roosevelt memorial. The
resolution passed provides that the
Chairman of the Republican Ma
tional Committee shall appoint ma
tionwide committee for this purpose
made up of members of he COM
mittee or otherwise, who will act
with Col. William Boyce Thompson
Of New York, who has been deSigna-
ted as chairman of the special COM
mittee, In developing and carrying
out the idea. 1t is understood to be
the purpose of the chairman of the
National Committee to appoint this
special committee at a very early
date, and it will probably be COM
posed of large number of well
known men and women representing
the entire country Neither the ma
ture nor the extent of the memorial
will be determined until the special
committee is appointed and has
given thought to the matter, but it
was the general impression of the
meeting in Chicago that 1t should be
of a nature calculated to encourage
ideals and the perpetuity of the
broad principles of the Americanism
and national welfare to which he de-
voted his life. 1t is the desire of the
Republican National Committee that
citizens everywhere freely make sug-
gestions in this regard, addressing
their communications to Col William
Boyce Thompson, Madison avenue,
New York, or to the Republican Ma
tional Committee,
The afternoon session of the Com
mittee was open to the public and
took the form of Roosevelt memor-
ial meeting. Committeeman King
of Connecticut, presented his report
of the Committee on Resolutions:
"The Republican party mourns
the passing of Theodore Roosevelt.
"In an hour of difficulty and
danger, he has fallen like warrior
in battle, leaving place in national
and international leadership which
cannot be filled.
THE truest tribute it is possible
to pay to his memory Is in the pledge
that his party, the Republican party,
shall remain true to the ideals Of
Americanism and of special advance
ment with which his name will for
ever be linked and for which
throughout his useful career he
struggled with such heroic and in
spring ardor asd devotion.
History will write his name high
on the roll of those who, not only of

Governor Beeckman talked along
the same lines and said the declara-
tions and doctorines of Lincoln and
Roosevelt combined to form the
principles for which the Republican
party stood and for which it would
wage its next campaign.
The committee on resolutions also
presented a tribute to the late

next two weeks for Pittsburg,

subject to the exposure of the
weather, which he would be re-

and practiced his profession.

RED CROSS
WANTS 10000
MEMBERSHIP OF IDAHO,
NEZPERCE AND LEWIS
COUNTIES $500

When the citizens of Idaho,
Lewis and Nez Perce Counties
give their dollors for member
ship in the Red Cross, it must
not be forgotten that several
thousands of these membership
dollars will be spent in these
three counties during 1920.
In the first place, the splendid
Public Health program now be-
ing started by the Red Cross will
soon be under way in the Lewis
ton Chapter. Two nurses have
already been engaged and in
addition to this public health
work, the Chapter has employed
a graduate nurse for each of the
three counties to give instruc-
tion in Home Hygiene and Care
for Sick. Every community in
the chapter jurisdiction will
have this wonderful opportunity
to better public and individual
health conditions, at no expense
to those taking the courses.
Your membership dollars help
pay for this greatly needed
work.
Another branch of Red Cross
activity now being conducted by
the Lewiston Chapter in behalf
of returned service men of the
three counties, is the Home
Service Section.
Up to the present time the
Home Service Section of the
Lewiston Chapter has attended
to over 400 cases of soldiers and
sailors in Lewis, Idaho and Nez
Perce Counties. 88 of these men
were disabled in some manner,
and are receiving special atten-
ton. Ten of them are tuber-
cular; fourteen have received
treatment in hospitals; many
have received financial aid for
their families. In all these
cases the Lewiston Red Cross
chapter has supplemented and
aided the government in every
possible way. A trained Sec
retary is employed to give as
sistance in all cases of need. The
secretary keeps in touch with all
service men who have needed
advice OF aid, and with all fami-
lies in similar need. This work
is supported entirely by your
Red Cross dollars, and will con-
tinue until the last man returns
home from service, or from the
hospitals.
The Red Cross Canteen
Although the numbers are
dwindling gradually, eight ten,
twelve or more service men are
returning each week, and are be-
ing met at the train by a uni
formed Canteen worker. Until
the last boy returns Lewiston
Chapter will see that the return
ing men are cared for and all
their needs satisfied, when they
reach Lewiston to stay, or pass
through to their homes in the
three counties.
The Junior Red Cross is
another of the branches of work
that is being continued with
greater emphasis than ever
There are almost 5000 junior
workers in the three counties.
These are some of the reasons
why the people of our district
have a special interest in seeing
the 10000 membership marx
reached. We want to know thai
all the advantages of the Ameri
can Red Cross may be available
to our people now, as we'll as II
time of great emergency, such as
was experienced in the influenzs
epidemic of last year.
Idaho, Nez Perce and Levi!
Counties have $500 members o,
the American Red Cross.
Make it 10000. All you neeC
is heart and dollar.

The chief argument used by
supporters of the old board
were that the present members
were all we'll versed on the road
program outlined for the coming

through the Cottonwood district
and that no change should be
