CAMPAIGN
Elks to Assist Salvation Army
In Great Rescue Work
Under Way.

Charles f. Manning, past president
of the Washington State Eiks asso,'ia-
tion, whose headquarters are at Seat
interest of the Salvation Army. Some
time ago the Salvation Army called in
all their solicitors from the road and
the Elks lodges throughout the west
have undertaken to relieve them of
that great task Of raising sufficient
money to carry on the great humani-
tartan labors that that organization
has inaugurated
Mr.. Manning, a retired business man
of Washington, is fully cognizant of
the value to the different communities
of the work of these charitable peo-
pie and of the success that is attend
ing their efforts. He has interested
himself in the work entirely at his
pwn expense and considers it labor
of love. In placing the home service
campaign before our people Mr.. Man
ming set forth the sixteen major ac-
tivities of the Salvation Army as fol-
lows:
1. The Field or Evangelistic Work.
The preaching of the Gospel in diction
suited to the simplest of men with the
hope of immediate decision for Christ
2. Christmas Dinners-furnished by
ticket to poor families who are in need.
3. Fresh Air Camps-in the country
districts or ON the lakes to which poor
mothers and their babies are taken for
ten days in the summer.
4. Free Employment Bureaus-that

may be termed the "Chronically Un.

Another most important part of the

people may be taught the care of the
common home diseases. The improve

operation with the health boards Is
one of the things which a nurse can
bring about.
Those who question whether the Red
Cross work should be continued dur

longer. Eighty per cent of the funds
collected in Idaho county this year
will be used for local work. Much
more than the amount collected here
during the last year will be spent in
the next three months by the Lewiston

part.

County Commissioner E.
Vincent Gathered Large
Bunch of Feeders
TO FEED AT POMEROY
p. r. Weller and Lew Whit
more Will Use Large
Quantity Cheap Feed

County Commissioner Il. s. Vincent
OF the Slate Greek section of the Sal
mon river country, arrived in the city
Tuesday after having rounded up 262
head of feeder cattle which will be
shipped next Tuesday to p. II. Weller
and Lew Whitmore at Pomeroy.
In securing the Salmon river ranges
for these cattle Mr.. Vincent learned
there are many more cattle In that
section than had been anticipated and
1t is possible he will gather up another
large band for shipment to outside
points where feed is plentiful and
cheaper than 1t is In this part OF the
country. Many of these producers
have not sold single critter during
the present season and many of them
can almost be classed as beef animals
at this time. The price paid by Mr..
Vincent seems to have been satisfact-
DRY to the growers.
Among the producers furnishing this
shipment appear the following: Rev
lilo Johnston, Earl and Ward Sewell
and Clay Davis, II. w. Butcher, and
w. NJ Baker, Lucille; Gordon & Elfers
John Day Rice L. Harness, Freedom
Bentz Bros, Whitebird.

Idaho County is soon to have a
public health nurse. +. Il. Lukens,
Chairman of the Fourth Red Cross
Roll Call for Idaho county, has recent
ly received word from headquarters of
the Lewiston Chapter to that effect.
1t will be gratifying to know that
this is made possible by the Red Cross
organization The Lewiston Chapter
of which Idaho county is part is
going to place the nurse here on trial
for three months and pay all expenses
and salary. The county commissioners
were asked at their last meeting to
meet the expenses but did not feel
that they could do so ad SO the Lew
iston Chapter has taken the whole
responsibility.
The work that will be accomplished
will be of untold value IL we can judge
from what has been done in NeZperce
and Lewis counties. In Nezperce
county since March 1st, when the nurse
began work there, 1851 inspections OF
school children have been made, and
593 visits have been made, covering
infant and child welfare. social ser
vice. tuberculosis etc. In Lewis coun
ty since the health work was institut
ed in September. by the Lewiston
Chapter, the public health nurse hal
made a health survey of 393 schoo
children, in addition to conferences
