WOMEN OF NATIONAL COUNCIL OF DEFENSE WILL PUBLISH INTERESTING STORY
If you have a soldier or a sailor or a marine in any branch of your family, you will soon have the satisfaction and privilege of reading his full record in a war history of Idaho, which is to be compiled and published by the women's committee of the national council of defense. Mrs. William H. Ridenbaugh of Boise has been asked to take the chairmanship for this state; and under her direction, each of the chairmen of the women's committees in all the counties will immediately set to work to gather the desired information. In Latah county, Mrs. J. G. Gibson will have charge of this very important task.
Mrs. Gibson has a precinct captain in twenty precincts over the county and five in Moscow. To each of these captains will be sent printed slips which relatives will be asked to fill out and return. These blanks ask for information on twenty-nine different points, so that when the answers are given, the history of every Idaho boy who served in any capacity in this war should be reasonably complete. It is desired that records should be given for every Idaho soldier whether he entered the service from this state or from some other state.
