UNITED WAR
 WORK NEEDS YOU

Four overseas speakers are alfeady in Arizona on behalf of the United War Work campaign-the campaign for the Y. NJ. c. A., Y. w. c. A., Ma tional War council, Jewish Welfare Board, War Camp Community serivce, American Library Association and Salvation Army-four are her and four more will be here during the week of the big drive, November II to IS, inclusive.
 The four who have toured the state as well as the epidemic of influenza would permit, three of whom are still working in Arizona, are Stanley k. Linn, Ford M. Jack, Mrs. Richard Elm rich and Dr. F. P. Shepard. The four to come are Doe" John H. Clifford, the famous "Y" worker from Tucson who has been awarded the cross of war by France for heroic rescue of a colonel on the battlefield; Professor F. c. Lockwood, who was a professor at the University of Arizona but who is now in the transport service over seas; Arthur Rudman, famed in Aemr- ica and abroad as a war worker, and Miss Louise Fitch, sister of the late George Fitch, noted short story writer, who has just returned from France where she has been doing Y. w. c. A. overseas work.
 In Tucson, before America entered the war Dr. John H. Clifford was minister to congre gation. No one in France knows him other than as Doc" Clifford, the hero of the Marne- Chateau Thierry advance. He went into the war because Catholic mother who had sent four sons into service made a plea which stirred him to action and in spite of his 50 odd years he hikes with the men and was one of the first to carry in his pockets handsfull of rosaries for wounded soldiers. He is Baptist himself.
 Professor Frank C. Lockwood has already been heard in Arizona and will be back again during the week of the campaign. He was formerly professor of English at the University of Ari- zona. Now he goes back and forth with the soldiers moving towards the front. He was the son of an army chaplain and is particularly force full and graphic speaker.
 Stanley R. Linn and Ford M. Jack are athletic directors overseas. They are the men who keep the soldiers busy and active in athletics. They can tell the people of Arizona what sports mean to the men at the front and how such training and games help to sus- tain the morale of those who fare forth to possible death.
 Dr. F. P. Sheperd has been with the American army in France for about a year before returning for this cam paign. He has spoken several times in the state and has made a profound His tales of the Cha teau-T -Thierry drive and his stories of what the men face should make ev- eryone more than willing to back up this welfare work in which the seven great agencies are banded so that the men may come home as they went forth, the finest band of young fel- lows in the world.
 Mrs. Richard Enrich is a Berkeley, California, woman who has a real message from the front on behalf of women and their war work overseas.
 "It is for France that the girls
 are giving of their best" she
 says. "It is with the same spirit
 of patriotic service that actuates
 the men of France. They are
 giving their all. We of Ameri-
 ca can little appreciate the sac
 rifice these women are making.
 It is little enough we can do for
 them. We have established rec
 reational centers, huts where
 they can go after their days
 work Before the Y. w. c. A.
 did this they had no place to go,
 no amusements, nothing but to
 face the morrow with it's terrific
 grind. I wish the people of
 America could see and know of
 the appreciation of the women of
 France for this welfare work. It
 is right from the heart"
 Mrs. Enrich was in Turkey also and has an intimate knowledge of con- ditions in that country. She is a | speaker with message of heart ap- peal.
