East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1917-06-11
COUNTY is NO
STACKER

O. ONE portions of the state
9 seem unmoVed by APP
peals for the purchase of
liberty bonds and for such
needs as those of the Red
Cross and the army Y. NJ. C. A.
Other commupities are fully
awake on the subject and do
their part quickly.
With reference to the liberty
bonds and the Y. M. C. A. Pen
dleton has already made its
record. More than our assign
ed quota in liberty bonds have
been taken, the city's purchases
thus far being $525,000. Our
part of the Y. M. C. A. fund
has also been raised, though
the solicitation work for this
cause is not yet completed
throughout the county.
The greater test, however, is
going to come in the raising of
the $4,000 for the Red Cross.
This money will be given out
right whereas the liberty bonds
are an investment. the pur-
chaser being entitled to little
credit because he makes no
real sacrifice.
The Red Cross donations
are not reimbursable. So the
money for this purpose should
naturally come chiefly from
people who are in position to
give. This cause is one that
should appeal strongly to farm
ers, sheepmen and others who
have been making wonderful
profits because of war prices.
On the other hand the small
salaried man will be wiser to
put his money into liberty
bonds from which he may rea-
lie cash if later on his family
becomes hard pressed through
advancing prices.
The raising of the 100000 is
going to prove more than any
thing else whether or not our
fortunate producers appreciate
the blessings they have enjoyed

FROM A NOBLE LINE.

7 L. JOSEPH, the man who gives
each month one dollar of his sixty
- dollars -a-mOnth salary to the Red
Cross, is man cut Of the ordinary in
more ways than one Mr.. Joseph is
known about town by his Hawaiian
name Of IOsepa He was one OF the
first PrOgressives in the Territory,
and in the estimation of the principal,
teachers and students of Mckinley
high school, he is the greatest janitOr
that any public institution ever had
Mr.. Joseph is known about Mckinley
high as the manager. When ProfessoE
Scott wants anything done about the
place he turns it over to Mr. Joseph,
knowing it will be carefully looked al
ter. If the pupils begin to run wild in
their treatment of the school property.
Mr.. Joseph is on hand to remind
them of their responsibilities as stud
ents. He is a first class workman and
high grade janitor.
Another interesting part of it is that
Mr.. Joseph comes from a famous fam
lily. His great grandfather resided at
Hama, Maui, In the olden days when
grandfather of Mr.. Iosepa decided to
go to Samoa. He accordingly secured
one of the largest war canoes, stocked
it with the necessary calabashes Of
poi and water, and set forth. In good
time he arrived at Samoa He evident
ly was pleased with the country, be
cause he married there, and, history
records, he brought his wife back to
Hawaii.
1t is the pioneer spirit handed
down to him from his forefathers that
makes Mr.. Iosepa one of the natural
leaders in efficiency and service and
of progressive ideas in politics.
Mr.. Joseph was rather displeased
at the appearance of the item regard,
ing his contribution to the Red Cross
because it, quoted him as speaking
broken English. II do not talk that
way" said Mr. Joseph to the Star
Bulletin. Il speak good English
This is true; he does.
