War Relief

Bert Skakoon announces that the
results Of the Russian War Relief
drive for clothes and shoes was
highly successful and that the ship
ment is being sent to the Portland
warehouse this week. The Russian
boats have given high priority to
this material and the Libby conslgn-
ment should reach Russia in time to
help relieve their need for warm
clothing this winter Mr.. Skakoon
states that the material came in IN
excellent shape. Practically every
garment has been washed or cleaned
and only one old coat was found to
be too greasy to pack. Many homes
had sent entirely new garments. A
wide variety Of people can be ac-
commodated with the shipment as
there were clothes and shoes for
children and adults. The Civic Club
members enjoyed the afternoon
picking up material which again had
been placed in a convenient place
according to the directions given in
the Western News. A letter. in
Russian composed by Mr.. Skakoon
will accompany the shipment as will
the many personal messages sent by

Warns Against
Tracer Bullets
In Hunting

Forest officials Of this district re-
port that in one region an unusual
amount Of tracer bullets have been
found in possession of deer hunters
this year, and it is possible that
big game hunters in this region will
have some of this ammunition.
Certain regulations prohibit the
possession of tracer bullets on ma
tional forest lands or firing of them
onto or across such lands. This reg
ulation is comparatively new and
it is probable that many hunters
are not aware Of its provisions.
Forest officers will be on the
lookout for tracer ammunition at
all checking stations and other
points of contact with hunters. If
found, person with this type Of
ammunition in his possession or
discharging it, will be warned of
the danger of starting fires. If a
person, who has been warned, is
found on national forest land using
tracer ammunition, the person will
be taken before the nearest u. S.
Commissioner or u. S. attorney for
prosecution.
According to the Ordnance De-
partment of the Army, tracer bullets
may be identified by the fact that
A-inch of the tip Of the bullet is
painted red. Packing cases of tracer
ammunition have a broad painted
stripe of green on yellow. 1t is not
likely that any caliber other than
30-06 will have tracer bullets.

Libby erriers
Win First Come
With 40 Score
BY Herman Dolezal

Libby high Terriers won its open
ing game of the football season
last Friday afternoon by defeating
the Priest River eleven 40 on its
own field.
The first half of the game, al.
though hard-fought by both teams,
was scoreless. In the third quarter,
however, action was started by the
Terriers in the form of pass from
Chapman to Nelson, defender, who
ran for a touchdown followed by a
right tackle plunge by game cap
tain Glen Leckrone for the extra
point In the same period, Nelson
snagged tumble and raced 80 yds.
for another six-point score. A pass
from Chapman to Solem netted the
conversion point for the Libby team.
During the final minutes of the
game, the Priest River team threat
ened the Terriers by getting the ball
to the Libby six-inch line, bur they
were unable to advance the ball in
the four allotted tries and lost the
ball to the Terriers. Nelson then
booted the pigskin out of dangerous
territory,

SOMEONE UP TO BAD TRICKS
AGAIN

It's surely strange what some
people will do either in a spirit
of spite or just pure devilment. En-
ployees of the X. M. Co. store nave
been carefully saving all waste pa
per and filling many large cartons
with it for the next waste paper
drive. These cartons were tied with
small rope and then stored on the
platform at the rear Of the store
They must have contained ton or
more Of paper. One evening during
the week some culprit cut the rope
on most of the packages, evidently
using a very sharp knife.
just how anyone could gain any
any satisfaction from such a dirty
trick is difficult to comprehend The
paper was being saved in the pa
triotic endeavor to aid in worthy
war effort. Why should anyone want
to hamper that work in any Way1

that work will be continued without stint and
with hearty willingness
Speaking of this service, Frank E. Trip, chair
man Of the Allied Newspaper Council, said:
Il feel newspapers should be reminded OF the
tremendous job they have done. This goes not
only for seemingly impossible accomplishment
nr numbers of advertisements total lineage and
its value, but it goes also for the stupendous job
in the news and editorial columns.
In both departments new high was achieved

stances against which the news men worked

national convention combination never
before experienced, In the advertising depart
ment millions of lines OF commercial advertising
had to be omitted in order that the i'm
portant job be accomplished for country.

of their Fifth War Loan accomplishment than of
any achievement since the beginning of the war.
And Secretary Of the Treasury Morgenthan
says
Newspapers have every right to be proud OF
the part they are playing in this financing pro-
gram-and the Nation be thankful for free
