IDAHO MEMORIAL
ASSOCIATION
Special To The Free Press

Boise, Idaho, Dec. Christmas
Day will witness the completion of
$500 subscription in the campaign
for the Idaho Memorial building on
University of Idaho campus, accord
ing to State Chairman Paul Davis,
who returned the first of the week
from a meeting of the directors of the
Idaho Memorial Association at Mos
COW. More than $146000 has already
been subscribed and several counties
are still going strong with others to
start their campaigns the beginning of
the new year.
A fine spirit of enthusiasm and OPP
timism was evident in the meeting of
the directors at the certain assurance
that the meritorious undertaking
would be success. Reports from sew
eral county chairmen indicate that due
to a number of conflicting factors
several county drives viii begin after
the first of the year.
Northern counties are finishing up
the campaign, in general, before. Jan
uary LIST. Shoshone county has al
ready subscribed approximately $780,
600 toward its quota. Idaho county
under the captaincy of Reese Hatta-
baugh, began its drive Monday and
will finish its quota by January list.
Gem county is going strong and ex-
oects to finish its quota in December,
and Jefferson county enthusiasts ex-
)ect TO do the same.

The "Amalla" was steaming M the

and a little youth In uniform Jumped
about eagerly on deck, signaling to
the old woman on the bridge. She
dropped the purse squarely into his
hands.
"Ooray for 'er Majesty" called the
youth, his gay voice continuing to
sound merrily as the barge dIsap-
peared up the river.
Finally the old woman turned to
Hoskins. "Good night, sir, and God
bless You in the New Year. she said
softly, and walked away. Hoskins
stood motionless, gazing up the river
after the small hazy object that was
the barge. There was a sentimental
look In his eye, and a softness In the
droop Of his mouth. God bless them"
he breathed. "Twould "a been a bad
way, that, to begin the New Year."

THE HEADACHE

In the back of the neck or base Of

of eyestrain, showing a weakness OF
some one or more of the twelve little
muscles which turn the eyes in theiI
sockets, particularly those that turn
the eyes in their sockets Ak lee
the eyes toward each other, as when
looking at near objects, as In sewing
and reading.
Glasses correctly fitted must relieve
these muscles as well as relieve the
eyes individually.
1t is the knowing what TO do and
how to do it that gives the eye special
list success where the ordinary spec
tacle filters fail.

Reluctantly Hoskins forsook the old
field of his activities and sought other
prey. 1t was hard year, however.
What little he picked up from the
Christmas shoppers he already owed
to friends. He was facing the New
Year almost penniless. Then he re-

purse. he despised himself for think
ing Of 1.-THE man of principles-but
starvation is starvation, and it was
New Years Eve. Tonight she would
come.
He concealed himself in an old
crevise in the masonry. 1t was a per-
feet hiding place. He could see out
easily and not be seen by anyone.
About midnight he heard the slow,
heavy step of the old lady. She
passed close by him and advanced
few yards. He emerged from his hid
ing place and followed. About to
make quick spring at her, she
turned, and faced him. He composed
himself with difficulty, tipped his hat
and bid her happy New Year in a
weak, strained voice.

Fine, indeed. And fine for that boy
