Additions and detail improvements
in the Liberty line will add interest
to the exhibits Of this popular car.
The line has been made moro COM
plete by the addition of coupe and
four-passenger model, the latter
built on what are usually termed
speedster lines. The Liberty hood
has been somewhat changed and,
in particular, the number of louvres
on each side of the hood has been
more than doubled, SO that the ven
tilation of the engine space has been
considerably improved, to the benefit
of the cooling of the engine. The
sedan, in it's new form, has four
doors. and has been made more
roomy, and there are many improve
ments in details. The complete line
consists Of six bodies on a single six
cylinder chassis. The body tpyes. in

THE AMERICAN SMILE WON

Erik Palm of the staff Of Ostgo-
ten, leading newspapers of Linko-
ping, was one of the party of Scam
dinavian newspapermen who recent
ly visited the United States as the
guests of the country. Writing of
his chief impressions, he says:
"Shall ] say what made the best
impression on me? 1t was the Am
erican smile.
"On this side Of the Atlantic Am
orleans are generally depicted as a
very serious business folk who
have neither time nor desire to
smile, but only forge ahead, jostled
and hustled in the struggle for ex-
istence and for millions. But we
saw nothing of this serious business
type. whom we expected to find so
richly represented. Instead, we en-
countered smiling people, excellent
as comrades, genial, merry and good
company. I saw on the wall of a
club on the Mississippi verse that
began thus, Smile and the world
smiles with you This seems to be
the Americans slogan, for / have
never seen so many smiling people.
THE Americans are a fine people,
who give the impression of some
thing wholesome, robust and strong
willed. Among the soldiers whom

I saw I could not detect one who
seemed understood.
Talking of the army reminds me
of a scene at the big camp at Great
Lakes, outside Chicago. We drove
around in an omnibus, with a lieu
tenant as guide and a sailor as
chauffeur. During the run they sat
and chatted quite intimately.
This episode seemed typical to
me or the democratic spirit preva-
lent in the American Armv and
among the American people in gem
eral. In that direction we have much
to learn"

changes, demountable rims, new

nounces that Nash passenger cars for
the coming year embody no impor-
tant mechanical changes. Nash en-
gineers have further refined and per-
fected Nash cars both mechanically
and in body design, but it was not
deemed necessary or advisable to
make and radical alterations. All
Nash passenger car models possess
! exceptional beauty, sane lines and
comfortable riding qualities. In ad-
dition to the popular five-passenger
touring model, the Nash line includes
a seven passenger touring, four-pas-
coupe and X-passenger sedan. The
two-passenger roadster model has
an air of individuality which will be
appreciated by those who prefer a
roomy roadster to the regular tour
ing model. The primary essentials
of a roadster are comfort, power
and economy.

is IDEA GAINING GROUND?

If we are to believe the press re-
ports originating in Europe and dis
seminated in this country under the
eye of the censor the League of Ma
tons idea is making great headway.
In fact the idea is already accepted
by everybody who amounts to much.
The nations of Europe, including Ger
many, Austria and Turkey, are ready
to enter the League and at one stroke
do away with war and promote the
happiness and welfare of mankind
We are of the opinion that the
League idea has not really made the
progress that our own national ad-
ministration would have US believe.
By keeping in mind the one fact that
the League is still vague, nebulous,
void and without form, the average
man will realize that by the very ma
ture of things the idea cannot have
got very far. To accept an idea and
to put the idea into practice are two
very different things. We are all
ready to accept the idea, in the alb
stract, of the universal brotherhood
OF man. Not one of us will put the
idea into practice in his personal deal

STIRRING UP A MESS.

The Tribune has brought down on
its innocent head the condemnation OF
one or two spendid business men OF
Caldwell because forsooth it has given
voice to the complaint of farmer,
who in reality was trying to do the
community good turn. This farmer
undertook to tell the business men OF
Caldwell one of the reasons why the
town was not popular among the
bucolic community surrounding this
fair city. On its part The Tribune,
too, tried to do the business men a
good turn, but as aforesaid with I'M
expected results.
We are of the opinion that our good
farmer was telling the truth although
a little uncouthly. We have noted,
that in the words of Sam Ballantyne
while serving in the state legislature,
that the pig squeals when he is stuck
That is not an elegant comparison,
and we do not compare Caldwell bust
ness men with pigs, except figurative-
ly, and very figuratively at that. In
fact after thinking it over we with
draw the comparison entirely and with
due respects to Mr. Ballantyne We
wish to say that we had no idea OF
stirring up mess right here at
home.
Since publishing the interview with
our farmer friend we have had talk
with a resident of Caldwell. This
resident of Caldwell owns farm on
Deer Flat that is couple of miles
closer to Caldwell than it is to Nampa
This resident of Caldwell, underscore
his habitat, please, raised some 5000
bushels of corn on his farm. He
hauled that corn to market but not to
Caldwell for the simple but sufficient
reason that he could bet $4,000 more
for it at Nampa. We make no re-
mark upon this transaction but let it
go as it looks.
Now by the nature of things in
general The Tribune is quite as
vitality interested in Caldwell and its
welfare as any other business house
in the city. 1t affords us no pleasure
TO cali public attention to the mis-
takes of other business houses. This
ask is ours but it brings US neither
pleasure nor profit. Our only pur-
bose is to apprise our busienss men Of
he facts that they may know the
rouble and, if possible, alleviate it.
mess of any kind is not to our
liking. We like to see things clean
md orderly, little prim, if you
lease.

such a condition of affairs is in it
self AN intolerable outrage It is all
the more intolerable when the vision
of unheated homes and penniless
Christmasses is conjured up.
No sorrier service could be per-
formed by the government to our
brave boys overeas than to- leave
their dependents in want. The boys
have gone without half their meagre
pay on the strength of the govern
ment's promise to provide maintain
ence for their dependents at home. To
leave these dependents in want is not
only base ingratitude, it. is criminal
mismanagement.,
Fourteen thousand clerks are en-
ployed by the War Risk Insurance
Bureau. This would seem to be a
large enough force to keep the work
up to date, but if it is not, it should
be doubled or tripled. For the pay
ment of allowances to soldiers de-
pendents is matter of honor and JUS
tice not less important and the pay
ment on interest on government bonds
or salaries of government employees
Nowhere will congress find more
fertile field for thorough Investigation
and prompt reform. The inefficiency
of the War Risk Insurance Bureau is
a national disgrace that cannot too
soon be atoned for.

CALDWELL IS DOING
REMEDY HOUSE SHORTAGE
(Gooding Leader)

Caldwell, like Gooding is experience
ing an acute shortage of houses. The
Caldwell Tribune states that Caldwell
needs fifty new houses at once. Good
ing needs at least that many, if not
at once then Before the end of this
new year.
Caldwell business men are setting
about to remedy matters by the or
ganization of building company cap
italized at $25,00O The purpose of
the company is to build, sell and rent
houses. The leaders in the project
say they are convinced that the COM
pany can be profitable to the investors
as well as to meet need.
The plan of this company is to
build for sale on the installment plan.
neat, modern attractive cottages of
five and six rooms, or upon applica-
ton. residences to suit the would be
purchaser or other specific need.
The conditions and the situation in
this city are not so unlike those at
Caldwell, Likewise, if the project
above referred to can be made sue
cess at Caldwell, something of the
kind can be made a success here.
That there is dire need for more
houses in Gooding is heard on every
hand.

WILL GET EN- OUT OF
TRENCHES.

Peace commission which sailed for
Europe aboard the George Washing
ton, headed by President Wilson, bids
fair to accomplish a great deal more
toward getting the boys out of the

to the world than the peace expe-
dition, headed by Henry Ford, which
sailed in the Oscar ii exactly three
years before.-Payette Enterprise.
We are very glad to know that the
commission will at least get the boys
out of the trenches. That is quite as
much as can be expected. Getting
the boys out of the trenches is aruly
a good work but it hardly explains
the mission of the President, his wife
and mother-in-law. the 40 varieties of

GOOD START WAS MADE.

A good running start is half the race
saw the authorities. The Republican
state administration has made such a
start. First came the harmonious or
ganization of the state legislature.
Immediately there followed a sensible,
searching message from Governor
Davis. Thus far the appointments to
state offices have been very good
Apparently the administration has
successfully passed the first stumbling
blocks in the path. A continuance of
the present performance can be ex-
pected confidently.
At this time grave responsibility
rests upon every state officer. The
record of the legislature and state ad-
ministration for the next two years,
will in a measure, establish the posi-
ton of Idaho two years hence in the
national election. The welfare and
interest of the country demand the
election of a Republican national ad-
ministration. 1t is the patriotic duty
of every Republican in position of
authority to so conduct himself, off
cially, as to help toward that end.
We have every confidence in Gov
ernor Davis and associates and in the
legislature. The good start made
augurs we'll for the entire administra-

The readers of The Tribune know
that Mr.. H. ]. Zeh, aided and assisted
by other men of this city, is organic
ing company to build and sell
houses. We are told that Mr.. Zeh is
meeting with substantial encourage
ment in his efforts. In fact we are
assured that the company will be or
gained; will operate eventually with
good results in the matter of new
houses.
If we mistake not, and if we violate
no confidence, Mr.. John Smeed is in
directly responsible for this move.
Mr.. Smeed stirs around a great deal
with his eyes open which is a very
good way to stir around. In fact if
you cannot keep your eyes open it is
a good idea to do but very little
stirring around. That advice is thrown
in parenthetically as we'll as gratuit
ously and is not at all germane to the
text. We have seen men stir around
with their eyes shut and with disas-
trous results to everybody concerned.
Well. to resume, Mr.. Smeed noticed
that new houses were badly needed
and that nothing was being done to
supply the need so he started to stir
up as we'll as stir around. The practi-
cal result will be several new homes

year.
