All of the German generals are trying to lay the blame of the present crushing defeat on the hdalf-witted Crown Prince. This. has caused the aforesaid C. Prince to challenge all of the generals to fight duels— but they simply laugh at him. Kaiser Bill is also sore the way things are going and has canned halfa dozen or more generals this week for snubbing his nutty son. The leading German papers ij\are also roasting the big leaders and war chiefs for their lying hab- it of keeping-the real truth of the war situation from the public and common people. Verily, it is the beginning:of the end of Prussian- ism. Manager P.A. Gaul of the Or- pheum theater has introduced a new feature which makes a decid- ed hit and is very popular with the people of this community. He is having slides made contain- ing pictures of all of the boys of this vicinity who are in the ser- vice of our country, and every Wednesday night will show them —in life size—on the screen, to- gether with their names and dé- partment they are in. Parents and relatives are asked to present to Mr. Gaul pictures of the boys as soon as possible. The photos are not injured in the least, and | will be réturned as soon as tle slides are made. The common starved people of howl for the truthasto how the war is going. For the first time in his miserable life Kaiser Bill the Butcher tells them the truth by simply -wiring back that “ev- erything is coming our way!” And sure enough they are. Among the things coming his way are several millions of American fighters—the best and bravest in the world—also three times that many British, French and Italian soldiers, along with everything that can be shot out of millions of gunsandcannons. Yes, every- thing is coming the Kaiser's way allright, allright! Ex-Governor Gooding, republi- ean candidate for U.S. Senator, spent a few hours in town yester- day on his rounds of the state in the interest of his campaign. He says the crops. generally look 100 per cent better on Camas Prairie than any other section in the state that he has visited. Lieut. M.C. Kent of the U.S. navy has notified us that the Na- val Reéruiting party that was scheduled to visit this section of the country was recalled to the Navy Yard, owing to the fact that all enlistments have been temporarily postponed. The two papers at Ontario, Ore- gon, a town of about 4000 people, have just been consolidated, caused mainly by ‘editor Riddle of the Democrat being called in- to army service.. The Democrat was absorbed by the Argus. The new draft bill of all men between the ages of 18 and 45) years, who must register on Sept. } 5th, will furnish for army service | from Idaho 66,570; Washington | 174,267 and Oregon 101,110 men. | Germany are putting up a great | ™ Stopil!!. rc That sign saves thousands of lives at railroad crossings every year.

At the great battle of Chateau Thier- ry a letter was, found on a dead German officer, written to his father, which read: “The Ameri- cans are attacking on the entire line. Never have I or anybody else ever seen such dreadful and terrific fighting; nothing on earth could withstand them. We have made the mistake of our lives in underestimating Foch and his re- serves, and especially the Ameri- cans. I feel that I shall get kill- ed in this battle, and the sooner it happens the better it will suit e. The Wallace Press-Times truth- fully says: ‘Many aman is find- ing that there is still wear in the old suit he planned to throw away. The war. has surely work- ed changes in that respect. Like- wise the women are finding that old suits and dresses can be worn some more and changed about and more than one young thrifty and enterprising miss has discov- ered that her party dresses for which she has no further need can be converted into dainty waists. Such are some of the things this nation is learning through the war.” Some color troops passed through Spokane this week on the way to France. A Frenchman at the depot asked a big darkey, who looked like he could whip a regi- ment of Huns, if he thought he would stop inthis old home city of |Paris. The darkey said, ‘“Well suh, witeman, I might lay over fo a sho’t time in dat town. suh, but my destination suh is B’lin!’”’ , So great is the rush among men over 31 years of age to enlist that the government has had to shut |off enlistments in all branches of the service because of the fear of {upsetting the war industries at | home. The problems of the war are indeed many and varied. . Now that the Germans are run- ning all the time from our boys, \they (the Huns) have taken to wearing their breast protectors on their backs. “ Dead Huns are damming the rivers in France. That’s nothing —the whole world is damning the Huns. Hatsoff to General Foch, b’gosh! ’ Randall’s Confectionery TOM’S. PLACE Home Made Ice Cream of the very best.
