The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1921-01-29
o. C. MUNSON, Editor

Uncle sam s logs, ana nOtnlnS is 100
With soup lines stretching and en-
larging deplorably from day to day in
many of our cities and the rest of the
cities bringing forth their pots to
cook, not the fatted calf, but the
bones of said bovine to make soup
for their unemployed we reluctantly
call the attention Of the citizens of
Moscow to the fact that we are con-
fronting a few problems ourselves.
There are in the city of Moscow
quite few ex-service men who are
out of work. Not transient visitors
to our town, my friends but citizens
of Moscow Some born, raised, and
enlisted from here. Some of these
men must have work. Some have fam
lilies to support.
! wish that it were possible for the
American Legion to take care of this
situation without appealing to you
the citizens; but the members of the
American Legion are not employing
very many men and some of you
might be.
We ask that any one knowing of
any work available would let the edit
or of the Star-Mirror know and he
will see that the information is for
warded to the proper persons, for
action along this line.
We hate to brag on ourselves, but
Dudley Loomis Post No. is the only
Post in Idaho which publishes a
weekly department in the paper 1t
is also the most up and going post
in Idaho, in doing things and getting
members.
The Washington bonus provides for
$500 a month for each month of
service between April 6, 1917 and
November II, 1913 for every one who
served in the Army, Navy or Marine
Corps and who was bonafide resi-
dent of the State of Washington at the
time of his enlistment and who was
not conscientious objector nor drew
civilian wages such as the Spruce Di-
vision while in the service.
Application blanks will be in the
hands of the State and County audit
ors in few days. Applications can be
made direct to them.
Regular meeting nights of Dudley
LOOMS Post No. 6 are the first and
third Thursday nights of every
month.
Have you got that Victory medal or
that French war memorial pamphlet,
that back pay, that Liberty bond you
paid for while learning to parlez
vous? If not see us or write to this
post and let US help you 1t won't
cost you anything except the time
and postage.
The government has taken the
broad-minded viewpoint that a man
who has been injured in the service
of his country is not an object of
charity, but is entitled compensa-
ton and medical relief. Therefore /
every person who contracted a dis
ease or suffered an injury in the mill
tary service in the line of duty, and
not due to his own willful miscon-
duct, during the war with Germany
can expect to eceive such medical |
and surgical treatment as will re-
turn him to health or at least bring
him the maximum relief possible.
The Complete Laborer
A stranger strolled into the office
of small town paper.
I wonder if you could put me in
touch with the writer of this ADJ" he
said handing the clerk a clipping
which read: "Young man, industri-
Gus, reliable wants work as chauf-
feur, cook, stenographer, painter,
clerk night Waterman,
steam filter, handy man or laborer.
P. o. Box 49,"
"Got a job for him ?"
"No, but | am stranger in these
parts and | want to meet up with an
