OUR OBLIGATION.

In signed statement issued by
United States Senator Charles B.
Henderson of Nevada, the duty
of the American citizen, who so
gloriously acquitted himself in the
war period. points out now the
same mans duty, now that the
victory is won and the first fruit
ready for the gathering. He
writes as follows:
"If Shakespeare had been asked
to help his Government by SUBJ
scribing to paper endorsed by his
sovereign, he would probably have
replied suminatingly, 'to buy or
not to buy but l do not believe
there is man, woman or child in
these great United States who
would hesitate to invest in the
securities of the Government
founded by Washington and JEFF
ferson if told that it was necessary
tohelp maintain that Governments
integrity.

A GREAT AID
TO FARMING

The county agent is the servant
of the people-all the people in the
county. He must not allow him.
salft to be made the tool or conven-
ience of few selfish or influential
citizens. This points constantly
impressed upon agents by the ad-
ministrative officials in the work.
In order to serve all the people In
county the agent must work
through local organizations, devel.
oping rural leaders as rapidly as he
can, who can help him in his work
Where there are no local organi-
zations the demonstration plot is
used as community center, being
the medium through which gath
erings of farmers can be promoted.
Free from the influences that come
from the support of educational
measures by private funds, the
county agent in the South is
public servant, supported by pub
lie funds, doing educational work
of the biggest kind and is reach
ing the people that need to be
reached.
The United States Department
of Agriculture, in cooperation with
the agricultural college, State de-
partment of agriculture, COUNTIES
and other associations within the
State or county, has been develop
ing system of education for the
country people on the farms and in
the homes, the objects of which
are:
l. To project agriculture and
rural life on a higher plane of
profit dignity and influence; and
to that end.
2. To disseminate the information
in the hands of the agricultural
colleges, experiment stations, the
Federal Departmental Agriculture
and the best farmers in such man.
ner as to have this knowledge put
into practice on every farm.
Fourteen years experience in de-
veloping this system of instruc-
tions leads to the adoption of the
following fundamental principals:
l. That it requires personal con-
tact between the teacher and the
one to be taught to bring the best
educational results.
2. That examples of demonsta-
tions worked out by the farmer on
his own farm under careful plans
and instructions are most effective
means of instruction.
3. That centers of influence and
strong personal leadership are es-
sental in any broad system for ed
ucating the masses outside of
schools.

Friend, ye my fellow travellers
from this to an eternal state of ex-

What shall it profit man, If he

ing at the termination of this lifef
We are all creatures who are travel

Our journey does not stop at
the close of this life. In that
great hour the soul wings its way
into the ;immediate presence of
Almighty God to be admitted in
to world Of everlasting day where
it shall dwell forever in peace and
happiness, or driven away to q
world of unending darkness where,
every time we cry for rest from
the awful suffering we shall have

reverberate through the dark pits
of this world of torment the awful
declaration. "There is no rest in

Listen, my friend. Jesus Christ,
the Son of God, who died for mans

do for your soul what he did for

to lose your soul from the bondage
of satan who is dragging you down
to eternal perdition. He stands
ready to forgive your sins and i'm

Georges Souvenir.

A Red Cross captain in France
vouches for this one: He saw a
colored corporal leading his cap
tive Hun major back to the prison
ers' cage. He had swspped his
heavy pack for the chesty Ger
mans monocle. The Hun sweated
under the negro's pack with a
dusky trooper urging him along
by occasional rear bayonet "at-
tacks." AS the strange procession
passed the Red Cross man the
corporal shouted:
"Cappen, jes look heah what

SOLDIER LETTERS
FROM OV VERSEAS


Trarce, January 81 1919.-Mr. j.
v, Frnyis Camden, Tenn, Dear
Editor: often begin my letters
l'y saying II wish | was at home,"
FOR we certainly do get lonesome
now. No excitement, no play bat
~ great deal of work has been our
Dot since the armistice was signed
IN November.
We are getting along very well
considering the tough weather we
are having and being in France,
100. | have been on duty here at
camp Williams for the past three
Inonths. This is the largest sup
ply depot in the advanced section
of the A. E. T. 1t certainly is a
big business in supplying hundreds
of thousands of troops with SUBJ
sistance, clothing and other CON-
,nodities. If you could only see
the huge warehouses and store
rooms that are filled with rations
that run far into the millions of
pounds, you would readily say the
dough boy are fareing we'll. There
are, also, more clothing over here
than we can make use of the next
six months. So we are we'll fixed
on few things but there are other
objects to consider. One is that
we are away from home and love
ones, another is, we are exposed to
I he weather every day and at sched-
nile time, no matter what the con-
ditions may be. We are all max.
ing the best Of everything and try
10 enjoy every day that we shall
be here.
l, for one, am very proud of hav-
ing the honor of serving my coun-
try for such great cause and
having the pleasure of seeing such
q beautiful country as France.
The boys here do not say Sunny
France any more, for the past
several months have been very
rainy and muddy. Most all the
A. E. f. boys know what it is to
sleep on the muddy ground, wade
deep mud and water in line for the
various formations that is in every
days requirments. There will be
heaucoup (bookoo) things that
we'll never forget over here. The
French are very kind people and
have done many notable things to
aid the Americans, as they call us,
TO enjoy our stay over here. I'll
never forget their loving favors.
We are expecting to return
home by next fall. The happiest
day that could come to many of US
now will be called discharge day.
We are too far from home to be
lappy every day. l am taking
advantage of all the "leaves" that
/ can obtain and visiting many
places that are a real treat to me.
I call this country a show now, for
it is some sight to see the ruins OF
the long war.
I must fall out now and finish
my days work. l am clerk in the
quartermaster's Office, SO you see l
can write letter every day if l
desire.
With best wishes to the editor,
l am,
Very Respectfully,

SOLDIER VICTIM OF
WAR BURIED WITH
MILITARY HONORS

John De Weese, who gave his life
for his country and humanity, dying
from the effects of deadly gas, a Hun
weapon in warfare, was laid to rest in
the Masonic cemetery Thursday after
noon with full military honors.
The military escort was composed
of comrades from John Regain Post,
American Legion, who accompanied the
body to its last resting place. Soldiers
and civilians stood at attention as taps
were sounded by the bugle and the
farewell shots across the grave were
fired by 'buddies," as a last token of
honor and respect.
John DeWeese was one of those men
who answered the call of his country
when not eligible because of being too
old. Being timber worker. hardy of
constitution, rugged and active, he
easily passed as being under 40 and
enlisting early was soon at the front.
A dose of the frightful gas given be-
fore the entente army was ready to
meet such methods OF warfare put him
out of commission, and while he lived
to receive his discharge, his life was
finally ended from it's effects.

MIRACLE MAN.
THRILLS AUDIENCE
Strange Story Deals With No
torious Band of Crooks Who
Are Converted-Photo Work
Equals Best Ever Seen Here.

The Pinney theatre was again
crowded by large audiences ThursdaN
afternoon and evening when the
Miracle Man. that thrilling crook
play, was thrown on the screen. From
the standpoint of photography the
scene in this play can not be ex-
celled. The outdoor work with the
camera is remarkable and the ocean
views charm every audience Witness
ing them. The Miracle Man" will con-
tfnue to be shown today, Saturday and
Sunday. Theatregoers in Boise should
not miss it.
The story deals with q notorious band
of crooks operating in New York's
Chinatown, who learn of an ancient
patriarch living out in the country and
possessing the power to heal the sick
and make whole the crippled.
With the idea of making money out
of his operations, Tom Burke and his
pals go to the deaf and blind healer
Then commences transformation in
these crooks, that makes one of the
most fascinating stories of all time.
The chief roles are finely interpreted
by Thomas Meighan, Elinor Fair. Betty
Compson, and others of similar calibre
