The Moscow men in whose minds
the Friendship Special idea had it's
inception have done something for
Moscow and for the university. South
Idaho newspapers gave column after
column of space to the story of the
visit of the North Idaho people, and
Boise gave the visitors welcome
which showed real appreciation Of
the good feeling which had prompted
the trip In his talk at the reception
at Boise Friday night, Mayor Mel
gard told the south Idaho people, not
boastfully, but in a Straightforward,
sincere manner, of conditions in Mos
COW as they affect the lives OF the
young people who are sent here to
be educated in the states great edu-
ing to his talk, those present could
not but feel that they were sending
their young people into a community
where high ideals and clean condi-
tons prevail, and where the people of
the community have real interest

The Red Cross membership roll
call is now under way and will con-
tinue until Thanksgiving day. Every
one should renew their membership
before that date. The world needs the
Red Cross now almost as badly as
during the war. In Europe the or
ganization is doing much to relieve
the fearful conditions arising from
the war, and in our own country a
peace-time program has been out
lined which makes for better health
among the children, especially those
whose parents are not in a position
to secure for them the proper medical
attention, and for the alienation OF
suffering wherever found. Through
the peace-time work of the Red Cross
many a boy and girl will be given
medical or surgical attention which
will save them from lives of practical
helplessness and uselessness, because
of disease, and will as a result, grow
into self-supporting and useful citi-
zens. The program is worthy of your
support. Your dollar membership
fee will do good in the hands Of the
Red Cross.

There is no question that the pro-
conference of argument is against
he building of any more battleships.
One reason suggested to the Star
Mirror by a Moscow citizen this
morning was that there is no more
being made with which to

hey be built. And if enough cham
