Thou mak'st my teeming hen to lay

Doughboy Model to
Be Used for County
Soldier Memorials
FEATURES OF GRANGEVILLE MAN
TO BE USED BY SCULPTOR
IN STATUE

The Fairbanks model of the Ameri-
can soldier, as designed and submitted
by Award Fairbanks, the Salt Lake
sculptor has been adopted by the state
memorial commission as the official EN-
blem for Idaho s memorial to the sol
diers, sailors and marines who lost their
lives in the late war with Germany and
her allies. This decision was reached
at the close of a two days session of
the memorial commission in Boise.
Harold Harris of Grangeville is mem
Der of the commission.
CHARLES TURNER HONORED
The commission decided to make the
model as typically Idahoan as possible
and the heads and faces will be model
ed after three Idaho soldiers, the late
1t. John NJ. Regan, Private Neibauer
of Sugar City and Sgt. Charles A. Tur-
ner OF Grangeville.
Lieutenant Regan give his life to
his country on the battlefield of France
and lies buried there. Private Neibauer
is the only soldier from Idaho and one
of the few in the nation to receive
the congressional medal for bravery on
the battlefield. He captured single
handed large number of Germans be-
sides putting several machine gun nests
out of commission. Sergeant Turner IS
now at Grangeville and saw active ser
vice He is considered one of the finest
soldiers, physically, sent to the front
from this state.
Adoption of the Fairbanks model
clears the stage for action and the
various counties of the state may now
proceed with the erection of memorials
to their soldier dead The law under
which the memorial commission acted
was passed at the 1919 session of the
state legislature. 1t provides for an
appropriation of $4,000 from the state.
Each county under the terms of the
law will receive 1000 from the state,
the county raises a like
amount, or more, and erects me
mortal embodying the emblem adopted
by the commission. Thus, n county
which wishes to suitably remember its
departed heroes, may do 50 with state
lid, and there is no limit to the amount
% be subscribed by the county and ex-
pended on such memorials.
TWO FORMS OF MODEL
The Fairbanks model under the de- |
,ision of the commission, will be avail |
lble in two forms, a free standing |
igure or in relief. AS outlined by the |
a memorial costing but
title over $4,000 may be erected which |
will embody the Fairbanks model IN
elief and which will be in accordance !
With the memorial law and will there !
ore draw $1,000 from the state me-
MORTAL fund.
The law provides for a memorial to
he boys who lost thir lives in the
var, but makes no provision for recog- |
iition of the boys and girls who served |
II the great struggle and emerged |
live and victorious. The commission
uggests that in the building of the |
,edestals for the memorials a recep- |
aele of ample proportions be provided |
n which shall be placed a printed or
ypwritten list of the names of all the |
,oys and girls who were called or who |
and who served i'll the |
-arious branches of the service. -

Mr.. McNutt, press dispatches assert,
con.endcd before the committee that
the forest service had been luke
warm if not antagonistic to prospec-
tors and miners efforts to develop min

road.
Whether the resolution will be to the
purpose intended by its promoters will
be an interesting matter to observe.

PHELAN IN BITTER

CHURCH STANDS ON
OBEDIENCE TO LAW
Priest Condemns Radicalism
and I. w. W.ism in Scathing
Sermon Delivered Sunday
Disloyal Element Should Be
Sent Back to Land from
Whence They Came, He Says

Bitterly denouncing radicalism, l. w.
Wsm and anarchy, the Rev. FIR. Phe-
Ian, delivered stirring patriotic ser
mon in the Catholic church in Grange
vile, last Sunday morning. Father
Phelan, speaking to his people, dwelt
ecclesiastical and civil law.
EXCERPTS FROM SERMON
1.-THE church has been the bulwark
of liberty during the long centuries
since she was established, he said.
'She has always taught her children
respect for law and obedience to legiti-
mately-constituted authority. Every
student of history knows the condi-
tions that existed before Christianity
was ushered in. While the church de-
mands obedience to her legitimately
constituted ecclesiastical superiors, she
inculcates reverence and obedience to
civil authority justly ruling, and i'm
poses this obligation as one binding in
conscience.
"a Catholic anarchist is a contra
dietion in terms, and a Catholic !. w.
W. is not only contradiction, but an
impossible composite. Catholics are
not found under the red flag of anar
chy, nor can they remain in the ranks
of socialism or l. WV ism, once they
find out the tenets and teachings, the
doctrines and laws of their pagan phi
losophy.
NO PLACE FOR CATHOLICS
A Catholic could not align himself
with such societies that call for disor-
der and disruption in church and state,
and aim at the fundamental laws on
which our government stands. We put
our faith and trust in the American
government We believe the cOnstitu |
tuition of the United States is the most !
luminous chart by which "A nation ever |
steered a ship of state. We are conf |
dent that the American government is |
the best ever ordained among men and |
that it has rules and laws for the red |

and naturalized, for all who are willing

THEY SHOT AT OLD GLORY

"'The fiends who shot at the march
ing boys in Centralia a few lays ago
shot, not at the men who carried the
flag, but at the flag itself and all 1hat
it represents. The men whose bodies
were piOusly lowered into their narrow
graves in the shadow of the Washington
pines. were not victims of a personal
feud, but martyrs to the great cause
of popular government, typifed in the
constitution and the flag of the United
States; typifed in the blood of the men
who offered their lives for the land
that Washington and the patriot ia
theirs conceived, for which Lincoln lies
in a martyr S grave, for which Quintin
Roosevelt and fifty thousand American
fell in France, for which five million
Americans, the flower of our youth,
rallied to the colors when the bugle
notes were sounded. This outrage at
Centralia brings a blush of shame to
the face of every decent American.
There was no prOvocatiOn for the
crime there can be no justification OF
it, That the mighty arm of our fed
eral government will deal speedily and
summarilv with these bandits and boil
shevikis. no one doubts. Neither shoulu
we be alarmed. OF our one hundred
million Americans, it is safe to say that
more than ninety-nine are loyal and
true and ready to defend their country
against the invasion Of foreign foe
or the fiendish plots and Vaccinations
of lecherous tratOrs-traitors whose
dav is fast drawing to close. Monu-
ments will yet be erected over our
Lincolns, our ROosevelts and klchm-
leys. over our boys who fell in France
or Centralia, alike defending their
country and their flag. These monu-
ments will stand through summer s sun
and winters snow, when the bones OF

being launched of sending these unman
ly seabs into some well-regulated pen

There are some who must be taught the
difference between free speech and free
license. They preach crate and per
crate against the government of this
country Well, it is up to those of us
who believe in that government to
defend it against their attacks. Our
boys went over there and fought our
battles and if they fought and died
for us over there, can't we live for
them over here, and can t we see that
these men, who are trying to place
another flag above the flag of Old
Glory, should be taught the difference
between free speech and free license!

Is a Reading Plav

WITHOUT THE WALLS. BY Katrina
Irask- Published by Macmillan. -'-''
Katrina Trask labels her latest effort
in dramatic form reading plav." bnf
it is evident throughout that "Withont
the Walls" was planned for the foots
lights. The story is a simple melo-
drama of the love of Hebrew maiden
for Roman solder in the fatafui
year 33 A. D. The stern father bids
his daughter we'd a wealthy old roue
Of her own race, and on her refusal
casts her into a dungeon, from which
she is released by the earthquake fol-
lowing Calvary. Thereupon she weds
the Roman. The background of Jern.
salem and the events of 33 A. D. set
off the story with no small theatrical
effect
Here is the stuff of staeewortbv
melodrama, but Mrs. Trask's attemnt
to tell her tale day by day necessitates
frequent shifts of scene, and the mo.
ohanical difficulties involved rather
than the material probably induced
the author to ticket her play for the
closet. The chief objection to MAKING
plays for the closet is that such works
usually remain on tho shelf but

by somo ono on the trail of n grand
opera lbretto. for the play, with its
lyricism and pageantry, seems fated
