United War Work

great occasion, tor there IS to be no division
 and no fall And what more fitting in-
 troduction could be found for the United
 War Fund campaign soon to begin under a new name for a new purpose. The great war has not only knitted the great chris tian nations closer together than ever they have been before, but 1t has also woven the warp of their creeds and colors and classes into the wool of a perfect whole. It has plotted out feuds and buried scowling enmities and petty differences so deeply that they will never rise again as strong as they were before And not the least of these is this most beneficent project of the United War Fund. The great benevolent, social and religious organizations of the world some of them with ideas and creeds and systems and catechisms as far apart as the poles, have come right up close to- gether and joined hands and hearts and souls and purses for the great cause. Think of it the r. M and the r. w. C. A, the Knights of Columbus, American Library association, the Jewish Welfare board, the Salvation Army, and the War Camp Community Service have formed the closest and most marvellous union of far flung so- cieties the world has ever known. Jew and Gentle, Catholic and Protestant, the men and women of the marble houses and the tambourine lassie of the streets, all have struck hands and pooled purses and set their souls to work together to do the most good for the greatest cause in the history of man. kind
 During the war and for war work there Is to be no more Y M. C. A., no more Knights of Columbus, no more Jewish board; just the United War Fund Based upon past needs and past performances the need of all of them has been set at one hundred and seventy millions of dollars and 1t has been satisfactorily apportioned among them for each to use for its war work Answering the call of President Wilson for this union, and also answering the still greater call of their own experience in war work and their own experience in war work and their practical good sense and their patriotism, these organizations readily agreed to work together for the greatest good of all They have buried every indi vidual difference and idea and pride and stand forth today consecrated to the single purpose of devotion to country and desire to aid her defenders in the field.
 Heed ye this call, all ye peoples. The great seven societies of war work, the magic seven, the lucky seven, the scriptural seven, have merged into one Their call Is for many millions. Their good works ye have known. And who are to be their heirs and heiresses of this great fortune? See their types in the illustrations upon this page today. The boy in the steel helmet and the maid in the red and white crown of glory. These shall inherit the earth.
 Cochise county will be called upon in this United War Fund campaign for about six y thousand dollars and those in charge confidently expect her to go over the top like the Americans did at St Mihiel.
 In union there is strength. And the chil- dren of seven separate houses are calling now to all their kin and kind and all their friends and symPathizers and well wishers for aid in the mighty work ahead. Yes, and they are calling to more than these. They are calling to the nation to help the nation own. There IS no need to outline the work of these seven. organizations It covers every range of soldier life and sol dier need and soldier joy and soldier sor- row and soldier death and soldier kindred And every phase and particle of it Is prac- tical to the core. And it is administered by practical and devoted men and women. Not a worker of all these seven societies and organizations but that makes personal sacrifice to carry on this work So this
