A resolution asking the governor

passed at the regular meeting OF
the Orofino Ladies Club Thursday

who is home from the University OF

sented the resolution at the meet
ing for adoption A statewide
movement has been instituted by
the Woman's League of the L, of l.,
of which Miss Molloy is the repre-
of the resolution by every organ
iZation of women in the state. It
is planned to secure the special ses-
sion some time in January. 1920.
The resolution follows:
WHEREAS, 1t Is of vital i'm
portance that all intelligent and
conscientious citizens of this nation
be empowered to vote In the Pres
idential election of 1920. and
WHEREAS, delay in ratification
may result in the loss OF the Fed
eral Suffrage Amendment by de
fault should the issue become oh
scured by other state and national
questions. and
WHEREAS. the ratification by
Idaho of this amendment has be-
come of critical Importance in OBJ
tanning true universal suffrage.
| BE it therefore resolved that we,
the members of Orofino Ladies
Club. earnestly request the Gov
ernory of the state of Idaho to calf
| a special session of the Idaho Legis-
lature in January. 1920, for the
ratification of the Federal Suffrage
Amendment.
The object of the plan is to OBJ
tain the ratification of the Suffrage
amendment before the primaries in
1920. Idaho is now one of the
critical states in the ratification
campaign. Twenty-one states have
ratified and others have indicated
that they will, leaving Idaho and
some six or seven others normally
for ratification, needed to success
fully complete the movement.

70 START DECEMBER 2S-MISS
RUTH F0GLE, OF MOSCOW,
TO AID IN THE WORK

On Sunday. December 28, the
local Methodist church plans to be-
gin series of revival meetings
which are to continue for two or
three weeks. A new type Of evan
eelism will be emphasI4Ad vnr
this reason the church has engaged
the services of Miss Ru.S 4 T"~,e.
of Moscow, who is an expert in this
line of work. She will work at the
close of school in the afternoon
with the children. Her program is
child preservation. This is a new
emphasis. Heretofore, as is COM
monty known, the point of stress in
evangelism has been reclamation
This method, it is believed, is faul-
ty, and the present effort is to cor
rect it by placing the emphasis
where it belongs.
Miss Fogle was specially trained
for this type of work at the Chica-
go Evangelistic Institute. which in
stitution. as it's name indicates.
specializes in evangelism. 1t was
during Miss Fogle's student days
that Miss D. Villa Caffray was
one of the instructors there. This
is the lady who last month stirred
the Methodist churches of Portland
in manner that is almost unpre-
cd
yited to spend win -My-Chunl
Week" there, speaking in Centenary
church on the east side. But the
interest in her meetings became 50
keen that she was requested to re-
main two weeks longer. The Pacific
Christian Advocate, published in
Portland, has given several refer
ences to those meetings. in which
Miss Caffray's work was spoken OF
in the very highest terms. Hun
dreds. it says, were converted But
the most significant feature of tn
meetings was the fact that seventy
five young people became volunteer.
for the ministry and for the mission
field
The success of Miss Caffray, tn,
teacher, augurs well for the type o
work that may be looked for in he
pupil. Miss Fogle. Miss Fogle'
ability has, in fact. already beer
adequately demonstrated. She ha

WHO'S GETTING 1T?

Gasoline at filling stations IN Mem
phis is selling al 10 cents per gallon,
drop Of six cents per gallon within
the past two weeks.
Gasoline In jackson is selling al
from 25 to II cents per gallon, accord
ing to the quality.
Why is it?
Are the oil concerns in Memphis
selling gasoline below cost?
If so, it's extraordinary. Oil con-
Germs are not in the habit Of doing
that.
But, granting that gasoline is being
sold in Memphis at figure closely
approaching cost, what does it indi-
cate?
The answer is obvious.
1t indicates that somewhere on the
road from the producer to the consum-
er an excessive profit is being taken.
There is neither reason or excuse
for margin Of ten cents per gallon.
Who's getting it?-Jackson News.

PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN.

Newspaper advertising was the
chief factor in the success Of the Pres
byterian church drive for S10,O0O,OOO
for work overseas and at home, ac--
cording to a statement issued by DR..
Chas. Stezle, publicity director of the
drive.
Certainly it was.
No drive of any character, regard
less of its mIits, can be put over now
adays without newspaper advertising.
1t is the only medium through which
the people can be reached and their
enthusiasm awakened.
The approaching Victory Loan
campaign, with its SIX million dollal
goal, will edpend upon the newspapers
f the United States.
Upon the volume of publicity given
by the press will depend the success
or failure of the loan.
And just in this connection it is
proper to remark that neither the gov
ernment or the public must expect this
publicity to be given free of charge.
The newspapers will do their part
-much more than their part, in
| fact-but they must not be expected
to do it all.
1t must be borne in mind that the
modern newspaper is a business in
stitution, and not a philanthropic en-
terprise. 1t can't run on wind OF
water.
Already the newspapers have giver
publicity to the Victory Loan worth
hundreds of thousands of dollars. II
is high time for other business insti
tutions, who are equally interested
in its success, to commence figuring
on what they are going to do.-Jack-
son News.

until his contract was fulfilled. Now,
the people of Lafayette county, from

VICTORY LOAN DATES
FORMALLY ANNOUNCED
Campaign Will Cover Three Weeks
From April Il to May 10 De-
tails Not Completed.

Secretary of the Treasury Glass has
formally announced that .he Victory
Loan campaign will open April 81 and
continue until May 10. Short term
notes, maturing in not more than five
wears will be issued instead Of longer
term bonds.
after studying financial conditions
in all parts of the country said Sec
retary Glass, 81 have decided the IN
terests of the United States will best
be served at this time by the issuance
Of short term notes rather than OF long
.erm bonds, which would have to bear
he limited rate Of interest of IL
per cent.
"The Victory Liberty Loan will,
therefore, take the form of notes OF
he United States maturing in not over
| i've wears from the date Of issue.
These notes will be, as were the Lib
artv Loan bonds, the direct promise
to paw of the United States, will be
| ssued both in registered and coupon
form, and the coupon notes will be in
| final form and will have attached the
interest coupon covering the entire life
of the notes. am hopeful that the
notes in final engraved form will be
ready for delivery by the opening OF
the campaign, April 21.
81 am led TO adopt the plan of is
suing short term notes rather thar
long term bonds largely because of the
fact that | believe short term issue
will maintain price at about par af-
ter the campaign is ended far more
readily than would longer term
