TRUSTED TO FoRGETFULNEsS
OF THE FRENCH.

The phrase "he kept us out of war
did yeoman service in Keeping Mr..
Wilson in the White House, and in the
last campaign was widely referred to
by his opponents in demonstrating the
innate hypocrisy of the man. Tenn
porarily it has been laid on the shelf
until once more the voters Of the
country are called upon to pass judg-
ment upon their president. But Mr..
Wilson's unctuous phrases in which
he assures Parisians of his sentiments
for the sufferings Of their country and
Belgium which impelled us into the
war recall his campaign slogan of
1916 very wildly to mind. The other
evening in Paris Mr.. Wilson uttered
the following words:
Il beg that you will not suppose
that because a wide ocean separ-
ated us in space, we were not in
effect eye witnesses of the shame
full ruin that was wrought and the
cruel and unnecessary sufferings
that were brought upon you. These
sufferings have filled our hearts
with Indignation. We know not
only what they were but we know
what they signified, and our hearts
were touched to the quick by them,
our imaginations filled with the
whole picture of what France and
Belgium in particular had expert
enced.
''When the United States enter
ed the war, therefore, they enter
ed it not only because they were
movd 10y a conviction that the
purposes of the central empires
We're wrong and must be resisted
by men everywhere who loved lib
erty and right, but also because
the Illicit ambitions which they
we're entertaining and attempting
to realize had led to the practices
which shocked our hearts as much
as they offended our principles"
Two long years after the shameful
ruin and cruel and unnecessary suf
ferings" had filled our hearts will
indignation" Mr. Wilson allowed him
self to go before the people on plat
form of "he kept us out of war" Fl
his triumphal reception in Paris pri
marily to that hypocritical phrase
What a mockery to stand before hi
French hosts and assure them of hi
sympathy for their sufferings.

credited with finally checking the dis

rate the spread of the disease has
reached an alarming extent. stua-
ton that caused the mayor to call
conference of physicians the other day
to consider ways and means to check
it, AS a result of an exchange o.
views on the subject the following
conclusion was reached, according to a
report of the meeting in a Boise pa
per:
THAT quarantine is worthless so
far as stamping out influenza Is
concerned; that closing Of dances
and theatres is Of no consequence;
that the influenza epidemic viii
continue until complete immuni-
cation of people Is established;
and that serum should be manu-
featured in the state bacteriologi-
cal laboratory and furnished gra-
tuitously to the people Of the
state"
We are not prepared to wholly agree
with this conclusion, and perhaps a
layman should refrain from having OF
at least expressing an opinion at all
However, we are inclined to the opin.
ion that strictly enforced quaran.
tine against assemblages of all kinds
would prove effective in stopping thu
spread of the disease, but up to datt
we have heard of no place in which
quarantine has been enforced in tina
way. This has probably been the ex
perience of the Boise authorities, henc
the conclusion that the complete i'm
munzation Of the people by the use o
influenza serum Is the only system
that will successfully cope with tn
situation. That this would accomplish
the purpose Is certain, but even great
er difficulty will be found in enforcin
this measure than In maintaining
strict quarantine. In spite of unani

Metals corporation was registered
with an authorized capital Of s25,000,-

PHYSICAL TRAINING IN THE
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

There is hardly line of human ac-
tivity that has not been affected so
far as the future is concerned by the
disclosures and necessities of the
great war. No such mental and ply
steal tests had ever been contemplat-
ed until this titanic struggle for world
supremacy was forced upon the ma
TONS and now that peace is restored
the attention of thoughtful men is
turned to overcoming the deficiencies
which proved a source Of weakness In
the hurried preparation for war One
of these has to do with the public
school system, and specifically to the
necessity for giving more attention to
the physical training of pupils, be-
ginning with the primary grades. This
point was emphasized by Superintend-
ent Rose of the Boise public schools,
at a conference of superintendent the
other day, He said in the course of
his remarks on reconstruction in the
public schools
1.-The one great fact which we
must face and consider is the APP
| palling large number of young men
who were found by the draft to
be physically unfit for military
service.
1--WE may tolerate interscholastic
| games between picked teams, but
we shall subordinate in Importance
such games to the training which
aims to develop all the children
| in the school Along with this
special attention TO the physical
development must necessarily go
! systematic health inspection,
with an insistence upon the cor
| rection of those gross defects
which hinder physical and mental
growth"
Explaining his idea of physical
training, Mr. Rose said that the brief
period devoted to supervising play
must be supplanted by more elabor-
ate and exacting program of physical
education which will have as a defin-
lite purpose turning out young people
from the public schools strong in body
as well as in mind. This education
and training should begin in the pri-
mary grades and be regarded as i'm
portant as any other phase of school
work.

ZINC AND ITS USES.
(Boise Statesman)


War requirements created a govern
ment demand for replacement metal
Of non ferrous class and discovery
soon was made that zinc embodied the
essential elements for good material
used in such metal products. In re-
spending to the market thus opened,
the wide scope of zines usefulness was
revealed and, as a result more articles
now are being made from 1t than ever
before and the various industries, into
which it has entered, promise de-
mand that will mean years of pros
perity to zinc producers.
Its uses have become manifold. Zinc
oxide now forms considerable por-
ton of the composition in automobile
or truck tires, giving resilency and
durability; 1t furnishes wearing quail
ties to paint and provides toughness,
luster and color constancy, which
makes paints of such composition bet
ter and tends to economy. Metallic
zinc, commonly known as spelter, Is

Qualification will be the determining
factor in making state appointments,

If the law requiring annual assess
ment work on mining claims is to be
suspended for the year 1919, the reso-
luton should be passed early in the

may receive the benefit. Idaho repre-

be glad to hear from their constituents
on the subject in order to guide them

Ring Out, Wild Bells

The flying cloud, the frosty light;
The year is dying in the night
Ring out, wild bells, and let him die
Ring out the old, ring in the new
Ring, happy bells. across the snow;
The year is going let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true
Ring out the grief that saps the mind,
For those that here we see no more;
Ring out the feud of rich and poor,
Ring in redress to all mankind.
Ring out a slowly dying cause,
And ancient forms of party strife;
Ring in the nobler modes OF life.
With sweeter manners, purer laws.
Ring out the want, the care, the sin,
The faithless GOODNESS of the times;
Ring out, ring out my mournful rhymes,
But ring the fuller minstrel in.
Ring out false pride in place and blood,
The civic SANDER and the spite;
Ring in the love of truth and right,
Ring in the common love of good.
Ring out old shapes of foul disease,
Ring out the narrowing lust of gold;
Ring out the thousand wars Of old,
Ring in the thousand years of peace.
Ring in the valiant man and free,
The larger heart, the kindlier hand;
Ring out the darkness of the land
Ring in the Christ that Is to he.
