7FE President has expressed what IS In every
\ American heart AS nation we are united in
n the winning of this war. AS nation we stand
behind our fighters eager and prepared to do for them
whatever will hasten victowy and make the lighters
task little lighter.
AS individuals there Is little we can do. AS a ma
ton we can work wonders through the seven organ1-
cations authorized and recognized by the Government
Tbev come to YOU not as Catholics Jews
nor as Protestants not the representatives OF any
creed or enterprise but Americans to ask that you
ioin in this great united undertaking for God, and
country and our fighters.
The President has voiced his belief that this spirit
of unity will be crowned with abundant success.
He believes it because he knows this campaign is
"of vital military value and he knows that you VIII
leave nothing undone to win this war.
Rogue River courier. (Grants Pass, Or.) 19??-1918, 1918-11-06

It rests with you. Think of this campaign as your
sole responsibility What you give will mean its sue
cess You cannot leave this undertaking to Others 1t
is YOUR campaign. In France, Americans are light
ing this war the result depended on the way each
individual fights. At home, this campaign rests with
you. What will you give-decide to night-and make
your share the biggest thing you ever did!

WHAT MAKES THE
WILDCAT WILD?
HERE'S A REASON
Sad and 0dOrOuS Tale Of Zoa
Lacking Discretion,

POUGHKEEPSIE, " Y-Jut what
It is that makes the wildcat wild has
caused endless controversy While the
correct diagnosis regarding wildcats
generally has not been made there is
no mystery regarding the reason for
the infuraled conduct Of one wildcat
which up to a few days ago had been
one Of the leaders in the wild set a,
Hopewel Furnace, not far from this
place
This particular wildcat was return
ing home through the woods after a
wild night when a small black and
white animal, observing he had a
chicken under his arm-or wherever
wildcats carry things-tried TO ilirt
with him The wildcat, realizing that
he no longer would he welcome IN even
tame wildcat circles, lcapcd at the fIrla-
tiouS one and proceeded 10 knock the
perfume out Of him.
There arc those who will say the Wild
cat should not have lost hs head They
are persons who never have been &C
costed by such creature and are,
therefore, entirely unfamiliar with the
treachery OF that animal You can't
trust them, No telling when they will
turn on YOU
The wildcat, therefore, was perfectly
justified in losing his head The
chances are he doesn't want to keep It
after that meeting At any rate, he
piled right into his annoyer, not wait
ing to look about for gas mask And

who came to town today with peltS Of
both animals Townsend came upon
them battling in the woods
lie says the fight lasted for twenty
minutes, during which the eyes Of both
animals were torn out This gave the
wlldc4t a great advantage because he
didn't need eyes TO find his opponent
The wildcat killed his adversary and
then rolled over on its back too weak
TO move. Townsend, after making GER
