MEMORIAL DAY
Isabel worrell Ball

Isabel Worrell Ball
Every newspaper you pick up
these days advertises some kind of
sport that will start May 80"
Why May 80? What on earth |
makes all the ball players, fist fight
ers, tennis champions and golf fiends
want to start on May 80?
Some fool women in New York |
have a new fad. They want to have
a parade of broken-down work |
horses on May 80. A lot of these
sporty. gnat-brains come right out
and say ION Memorial Day" We
will be glad and don glad rags and
root for our favorite fad in sports.
All this is deplorable. Not the
sports themselves, but the tendency
to fasten in the minds of the Amer
ican people the idea that Memorial
Day. May 80, which is legal holi-
day in 40 States in the Union, is es-
tablished for joyous holiday, much
play and more eating.
May 80 has come to be recognized
in every state but the eight really
Southern states as the National Sab
bath of Patriotism. A day when
men, women and children should
pause and gather in social centers
to tell the tales Of heroism OF the
men who wore the blue, and to re-
fleet on what that heroism means to
us who are living today.
The day was established by the
Grand Army Of the Republic, May
80, 1858, for the purpose of COM
memorating the ideals of the dead
of the Union army. a day that has
been held in such tender respect
that 40 of the greatest States Of the
Union have gravely incorporated it
into their laws, not for sports" "
but that the people Of the State
might pause for day to think Of
their mighty dead.
A veteran soldier said of Kansas
States are not great, except as men
may make them.
Men are not great, except they do
and dare"
But for the men who fought the
battles for the Union, and their stur
dy contention for right and justice
for many years after the ioattle-flagl
were furled, the United States woult
be only a third-rate nation today.
But for. the four years Of awfu
fighting, when the Nations life wa
in the balance, there would be NJ
nation today. We would be in tn
condition Of the waspish little ma
tions controlled by banditti overseas
The right won at cost in lives ant
money that staggered the nation
The United States government dit
mighty little for the returning vete
rams compared with what is beinl
done today. There were no trium
phal arches in enduring marble, n,
pensions commensurate with the per
ils endured, no waiting Jobs, no sof
berths for returning soldiers. TIL
returning armies passed in review il
ragged regimentals," an army o
tramps, in appearance, and wen
home in that plight. The fires wer
dead in the forge, the farms ha,
grown to weeds, the carpenters tool
were rusty, and the boys were to-

LATAH COUNTY'S
QUOTA $4,000
VICTORY LOAN COMMITTEE IS
SUED APPEAL AND EXPLANA-.
TON TO CITIZENS

Latah county is expected to raise
100000 for the Victory Loan, that
being the quota fixed by the state
board. Idaho's quota is Sill, 100000
and the total amount asked by the
nation is $4,5OO,OOO, This sum is
needed to bring the boys home and
care for them.
The banks are offering to make it
easy for people to buy Victory bonds.
The banks will carry the account for
SIX months at six per cent interest.
In other words it will only cost you
So to carry Victory bond for $500
for six months. Can any man or
woman afford to be called "slacker'
for SO? If you do not wish to get the
money from the bank you can pay
10 per cent in cash; 10 per cent on or
before. July 10; 20 per cent on or be-
fore August II; 20 per cent on or
before September 9; 20 per cent on
or before. October z and 20 per cent
on or before November II, 1919.
Every one is expecting bumper
grain crop this year and the govern
ment, which asks you to loan you its
money at Az to Az per cent interest.
and will pay you So per bushel for
your wheat next fall. With a good
crop of wheat at So per bushel every
farmer ought to buy heavily of the
bonds and he can pay for them after
the wheat is harvested by arranging
with his bank. The Latah county com
mittee makes the following appeal |
to the citizens of the county:
Fellow Citizen: The war has been
won. Victory is ours. We won by
the outpouring of our men and our
credit. Our enemy was appalled, at
the showing made by US in our de-
to bring the war to
termination, showing
that broke the morale of the enemy.
They quit. The valor of our men,
The great numbers thereof and the
ull equipment of their machinery for
var, convinced the enemy that Am
rlcan men were not afraid to fight.
BY a liberal expenditure of dollars
We saved the expenditure of the lives
# our men.
To pay the bills incurred, to bring
he boys home and to finish the job,
ur country needs $4,500,000,000. It
J asking each of US to do our part
| providing this money, by loaning
to the country in the purchase Of
onds. The government has appor-
oned the amount needed among the
arious states of our union. Idaho's
lota is fixed at 100000. This
mount has been apportioned to the =
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1919-04-22

several counties of the state and La
tab county's portion has been fixed
at 100000.
The county council of defense, the
liberty loan committee and various
representatives from each precinct of
the county have apportioned this
amount among the several precincts
and endeavored to name equitable
quotas for the residents of the county.
If you find that this is impossible
or feel that an injustice has been
done IN fixing your quota, don't kick,
don't cuss, just smile and call upon
your precinct captain and talk it over
with him and proper adjustment will
be made, in the event an error has
occurred.
Bear in mind that the money you
are called upon to expend is no gift,
but first class investment. These
are four-year bonds bearing Az per
cent interest.
We would gladly have raised
Fifth, Sixth and even Tenth Liberty
loan if the victory had been delayed.
Now as grateful loyal Americans, let
US "Finish the Job," and be thank
ful that we are called upon for a
Fifth"
Let us subscribe to the Victory loan
as duty to pay for the war and as
a thanksgiving for victory.
Work and talk and give and strive |
to make successful this great
lrive."

Market and Industrial News Of the Day
FINANCIAL

New York. March 11--Trading on the
stock exchange today lacked the activity
and enthusiasm of yesterdays record ses-
sion. but the tendency was Enthusiastically
upward after an irregular opening, with
many substantial gains al the close,
Uncertainty at the outset was due chiefly
to the heaviness of shippings and several
stricted movement of United States Steel
ard rails, which encouraged renewed sell
ing for the short account.
Rails and shippings became decidedly
strong later, however, the former ad-
vaneing briskly on Washington advices
which pointed to satisfactory outcome of
the conference between the director general
and the executives of the transportation
companies.
Disappointment was expressed at the
postponement OF the meeting between
steel manufacturers and the Department
Of Commerce, but the cut In the Kenneeott
copper dividend had little effect, metals
figuring unimportantly in the days opera
tions.
Dealings were broadest and most active
in the final hour, United States Steel rising
almost points to IS and affiliated in
dustrials, equipments oils tobaccos and
distilling issues advancing to 10 points
Froemost features were American To-
baeco, Industrial Alcohol, General Elee-
trio, New York Airbrake, Mexican
Petroleum. United Cigars, American Inter-
national, United Fruit and St Paul pre-
ferred.
Bonds again failed to reflect the
strength and activity of the stock list, the
tone in the main being somewhat mixed,
Liberty issues easing. Total sales (par
value), aggregated $9,375,000. Old United
States coupon and registered Is advanced

Denies Report That
Grain Exchange May
Be Moved to Bluffs
Bunk! BunkP'

Bunk! Bunk"
This was the exclamation of F. P,a'
Manchester, secretary of the Omaha
Grain Exchange when he read a rel
port that there was a possibility Oh
the exchange being moved to Coune
eli Bluffs in the event the legislature
passes House Roll No. 345.
There is nothing to it. Of course,
we are fighting the proposition
which requires us, to admit to mem-
bership associations which distribute
their profits among patrons.
"The Farmers Union is support
ing the bill, know. / doubt very
seriously if any of the members of
that organization claimed to have
any authentic information in regard
to plans to move the exchange
across the river"
