ALLEN, News Editor Published every Friday at Pullman, Washington, and entered at the Pullman post office as second class matter $1.50 per year, payable iv advance; 7."* cents lor siv months Pullman, Wash., Friday, September 27, 1318 "One Flag, One Land, A One Heart, One Hand, One Nation Evermore." Oti.., W.nd.ll H.lmu J Kill LITTLE PART Our boys In France have proved their courage and efficiency as fight ing men by halting the onslaught of the picked veteran troops of the Ger man army and hurling them back to ward their own frontier, This dem onstration of their prowess has brought the end of tho war In sight and has made certain the ulti mate defeat of the central powers, provided that the people in the Unit ed States furnish an adequate and uninterrupted supply of munitions, food and money, to enable the allied armies to keep up a constant ham mering against the foe. if we at home relax our efforts or teller, the allied offensive will of necessity halt and falter. The Fourth Liberty Loan affords to every American, not In the service, the opportunity to prove his patriot ism and love of country. The morn ing the drive opens the signal will be given for the folks at homo to go over the top. The. objective which they are expected to attain is $6,000, --000,000. The quota allotted to each community is its objective. Every effort should be made to leach this objective in the honest possible time. When our boys were ordered to wipe out the St. Mihiel sector, they did it in 24 hours, although the high command expected that the op eration would require two or three days. The people of every commun ity should emulate this example and subscribe their quota of Liberty Bonds within 24 hours, if possible, or within the first week of the drive at the latest. The quicker the loan la subscribed the harder will bo the blow to the! morale of the German army and peo ple. They ben be*m deceived by as surances that the United States would not fight; that if this nation did fight It could not raise and equip an army of any size; that even if it did suc feed in raising and equipping a large army it could not be transported to France; that in case an American army should succeed In reaching the front, it would be so untrained and composed of such poor soldiers that it would not be a factor In the fight ing; that the American people were so selfish and so engrossed in chas ing dollars that the) would not pro vide the munitions, food and money necessary to prosecute the war to a successful issue. The United States has already an swered these lies seriatim by declar ing war, by raising and equipping an army of over three million men; by transporting over 1,760,000 soldiers to France, who have promptly demon strated thai they are more than a match for the flower of the Prussian army. It remains tor the folks at home to deliver the final punch which will put the quietus on the last lingering hope of the German people that their rulers were at least correct iv their estimation of the selfishness and greed of the American people. The news that the Fourth Liberty loan has been promptly and cheer fully subscribed and that Uncle Sam has six billion more dollars at his dis posal to maintain his army and navy now at the trout and to equip and transport as many more fighting men as may be necessary from the 13, --000,000 who registered for military service September 12, will rock the Hindenburg line from end to end, throw a spasm of fear and dismay In to the hearts of the German people, and convince them of the futility of prolonging the war. Before this overwhelming barrage of dollars the morale of the Huns will crumble and behind it our boys and our allies will press forward to glorious victories. The time for the folks at home to go over the top has been fixed for tomorrow morning, the objective which each community must reach has been determined and described. No one is asked to risk life or limb, simply to Invest dollars at a fair rate of Interest on the best security in the world. The boys who are fighting and dying for us have a right to ex pect that every non-combatant will do his or her full duty in this drive and they must not be disappointed. They have done their big part nobly, we must do our little part gladly. "Back up our boys by buying bonds.'' should be the slogan of every man, woman and child in the nation during the coming week. WM. GOODYEAR THE RIGHT MAN* IOK COUNTY CLERK It is not often that a person can vouch unreservedly and with abso lute conviction for the character and qualifications of ■ candidate for pub lic office, The editor of The Herald is able to do this in the case of the democratic nominee for county clerk because x. E. Yells was In his em ploy for nearly 15 years. During that long period of close association Mr. Yells proved himself to be a high class man. faithful, industrious care fill and accurate in his work and scrupulously honest and fair in all his dealings. These qualifications, together with his ability as a fine penman, fit him to discharge the duties of county clerk, with credit to himself and "benefit to the tax payers. His theory of life has always been to render the best possible service in whatever capacity employed, and with that idea In view he has an nounced that, if elected, he will ten der the position of deputy clerk to Mrs. Mary P. Bellinger, the present Incumbent In the office, because he feels that her knowledge of the work and her proven efficiency, should outweigh any consideration of parti san politics. He has not made the offer contingent upon Mrs. Bellinger supporting his candidacy and does not even know whether or not she would accept the position, but he Is going to tender it to her because he is convinced that she Is the best qualified assistant he could select to render the most efficient service at the least cost to the taxpayers of the county. This announcement is in accord ance with Mr. Yelle's usual straight forward methods. When he makes up his mind to do anything, he goes ahead and does it without any beat ing around the bush or attempts to camouflage his actions. He is a quiet, unassuming, plain spoken, loy al American, who has given his three sons to the service of their country and is proud of it. For 2C years he has been a resident, and most of that time a taxpayer, of Whitman county. He has never sought-polit ical honors before, but has attended strictly to his own business and to the building up of a reputation for rugged honesty and good citizenship, to which all who know him will glad ly testify. It is a real pleasure to recom mend such a man to the favorable consideration of the voters and to work for his election, not only be cause of the promptings of personal friendship, but also because of the firm conviction that he is by far the best, qualified candidate in the race for the position he seeks. WM. GOODYEAR. GAS MASKS—YOU CAN HELP Every American has the chance for direct war service that will save the lives of soldiers. Carbon is needed to make millions of gas masks for the American army. Cocoanuts have furnished much of this material, but cocoanuts mean ships, and during the present shortage material for carbon must be found nearer home. The pits of apricots, peaches, prunes, i lives, dates, cherries and plums and the shells of Brazil nuts, hickory nuts, walnuts and butternuts make carbon for masks that will outlast the most diabolical of the German gases. litre is work for all, every home, church and school. Urge the boys and girls to scour the woods for nuts and incite your patriotic organiza tions to rivalry in making collections. See that the work is started in your neighborhood. Place collection boxes in schools, churches, banks and stores, and above all in your own home so your boys and girls can see the pile grow. It takes 200 peach stones or seven pounds of nut shells to furnish carbon for a gas mask and save the life of an American soldier. Haw many masks can your neighbor hood furnish? Dry the pits and shells before turn ing them in to the nearest Red Cross chapter. This organization is In chaise of collecting all material. GERMAN VIEW OF CHRISTIANITY Frederick Wilhelm Nietzche was one of the most noted of modern Ger man philosophers. How much has his philosophy affected the views and character of the Germans of today? Is not the answer written in the blood of the women and children, the old men of occupied France and Bel gium? Are not the Lusitania victims witnesses to German adoption of Nletzche's faith? Here is his indictment of Chris tianity: "With this I conclude, and pro nounce my sentence: I condemn Christianity. To mo it is the great est of all imaginable corruptions. The church is the great parasite; with its anemic idea of holiness it drains life of all Its strength, Its love, and Its hope. The other world Is the motive for the denial of every reality. I call Christianity the one great curse, the one great Intrinsic depravity, the one great instinct of revenge, for which no expedient is sufficiently poisonous, secret, underhand, to gain its ends. I call it the one Immortal shame and blemish upon the human race.' 1 Little grains of powder Mixed with lots of grit, Plus a Liberty Bond or two, Will make the Kaiser git.

Any wheat grading below No. 3 or which for any reason is not of a good milling standard, may be re leased for feeding. Also all wheat at remote points Inaccessible to trans portation and all wheat grown in such small quantities as not to be readily marketed may be thus re leased for feeding. Samples of all such wheat must he submitted to the County Food Ad ministrator and none shall be led un til the County Food Administrator has issued a written permit to the owner of such wheat. The prohibition against flour mills, grist mills and others grinding wheat for this purpose may be considered suspended in all cases where the County Food Administrator has is sued a permit to the owner to feed such wheat. County Administrators will please impress upon all applicants for per mits that it is not the intention of the Food Administration to issue per mits to feed wheat except where it is Impossible to obtain coarse grain for feeding purposes at reasonable prices. It is the duty of every feeder of stock to make every reasonable ef fort to supply his feed requirements without using wheat. The foregoing permission from the Food Administration is made speci ally to the states of this zone, and must not be abused. In case of any abuse of the privilege granted or of any unfair practice as to price or otherwise, the County Food Admin istrator is authorized to cancel any permit issued by him. County Food Administrators will exercise their best judgment in the issuance of wheat feeding permKs ac cording to the foregoing limitations. In order that there may be uniform ity in all sections, however, they are requested to notify Mr. .1. K. Smith, chiarman of milling and feeding di vision, Food Administration, Spo kane, Wash., of each permit issued, forwarding sample on which permit was issued. Permit may be granted at once, however, by the County Food Administrator with the under standing that It shall continue ef fective unless disallowed by the mill ing and feed division. Very truly, CHARLES HEBBERD, Federal Food Administrator for Washington. THE KIRST NIGHT IN CAMP I'm here with two thin blankets, As thin as a slice of ham. A German spy was likely the guy Who made them for Uncle Sam. How did I sleep? Don't kid me; My bed tick is filled with straw, Aud lumps and humps and big fat bumps That punched me till I'm raw. M e and my two thin blankets, As thin as the last thin dime, As thin, 1 guess, as a chorus girl's dress. Well, I had a hell of a time. I'd pull up from the bottom (My nlghtle's my B. V. Ds.) A couple o" yanks to cover my shanks And then my dogs would freeze. You could use 'em for porous plast ers, Or maybe to strain the soup. My pillow's my shoes when I try to snooze And I've chlllblains, cough and the croup. Me and my two thin blankets Bundled up under my chin; Yes, a German spy was likely the guy. And, gosh, but he made them thin. ARE YOU A CORK? A little cork fell in the path of a whale. Who lashed it down with his angry tall. But In spite of the blows, it quickly arose, And floated serenely before his nose. Said the cork, you may flap and spat ter and rap, But you can never keep me down, For I am made of the stuff that Is bouyant enough To float instead of to drown. ARE YOU A CORK?
