ae } COTTONWOOD ‘CHRONICLE VOLUME 26. NUMBER 26. COTTONWOOD, IDAHO, FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1918. ee $1.50 PER YEAR. JULY QUOTA 1,000 MEN Forty-seven Must Go From Idaho County July 22. Idaho must furnish 1,000 addi- tional draft men, starting to en- train them for Camp Lewis, American Lake, during the five- day period beginning July 22. Orders were received to this effect at the governor’s office in Boise Saturday and were immediately transmitted to the adjutant gener- al’s office. The latter department is now working out the apportionment for the respective counties in com- pliance for the request of Provost Marshal General Crowder. There is nothing in the order to indicate that registrants under the date of June 5, 1918, are to be included in the call. The mil- itary officials here were at first somewhat in doubt as to this. Apparently they are not included and will therefore not be ordered into the service. This is the second call withina month, the last one being for 2,000 men, which made heavy in- roads into the Class 1 men in the state. In fact,a number of the counties did not have men in this class when the call was made. They are to entrain for Camp Lewis this week, the Idaho coun- ty contingent leaving here today. Unless the amendment to the draft act is passed raising the age limit so as to include men _with-} out dependents between the ages of 30 and 40 it will be necessary in this state to meet future calls to go into the deferred classes = Give it your full support. of sugar, use thé best grade No’s2,3and 4.

At least 3000 people were present at Grangeville, including 3 bands— the famous Cowboy band and the two from Cottonwood and |Ferdinand—making in all fifty pieces. A street concert, patriotic ad- dresses and ball was given in honor of the boys, lasting nearly all night. Lieut. Governor Parker and several other prominent speakers made addresses. More than 1000 people—the largest crowd ever seen at the Cottonwood depot, and 500 peo- ple at Ferdinand—were out to greet the boys and wish them suc- cess on their way to victory. Following are the names of the boys who left here today, with a grim determination to “Get the Kaiser’s Goat.” Lawrence J Lustig John L Harris Bert L Baker Glen R Hibbs Henry J Monro jr John Elvin Rooke Lester Mark Wilkins Leroy M Terwillegar John A Litchfield George J Arnzen Ernest J Lytle Alva Edwin Silivan Jimmie Jay Shuck Wm George Meade Roy Francis Collier Harold Zenos Cram Willard L Toll Ernest Saunders Joy Eastman Henry Jess D V Lansing Thomas C Hazelbaker Anthony G Seubert Harry Pfannebecker Norman Archie Hadorn Willie E Parsley Arthur Rhodes Sam N Thomas Frank Ashline Paul V Lyon William Mundt Charles Case Crawford Roy Stover Earl Webster Wilson Albert Lee Deay Carl H Hanna Ear!

CHAUTAUQUA Was Great Success in Ev- | ; ery Particular, Perhaps the most successful Chautauqua ever held in: the Northwest closed here last night, aftera most interesting sessjon lasting six days. Every one of the 22 numbers— in the morning, afternoon ‘and evening—were the best of that kind of entertainment ever heard in Idaho county, and the great tent was crowded to standing room at nearly every preform- ance, 4 Lack of space makes it impos- sible to comment separately on each number, but of course some were more interesting than others —but all were good, j The best proof that our people are satisfied with the Chautauqua is the fact that the many hun- dreds of people. who attended are unanimously in favor of the Chautauqua holding another ses- sion here next year—in June. A contract to this effect has already been signed by 50 of our leading business men and citizens, The Ellison-White people will not hold'a Chautauqua next year in any other town in’Idaho coun- ty—since the management feels sure that Cottonwood is the best town in the county as well as the center of population and most easily reached from all directions, incall Will Rogers’ two cars are kept on the hump all the time carry-’ ing passengers to every point in the country.
