AN APPEAL MADE
FOR LAFAYETTE DAY

For the proper celebration through,
out the United States on September
of the one hundred and sixty-first an
niversary Of the birth of Lafayette the
American Defense Society issued a
call to the people of the United States
emphasizing the debt America owes
Lafayette and urging Americans to re-
pay part of it by annually honoring
his name and memory This is also
the anniversary of the first battle of
the Marine in 1914, and through the CO
operation of the 276 branches of the
Society and many civic and patriotic
organizations who have already vol
unteered TO help, it is expected that it
will be fittingly observed in every city
in the United States. The call, which
is signed by Charles Stewart Dawson,
chairman of the Society's board of
trustees, says:
at is the hope of the American De
tense Society that every man, woman
and child in the United States will
become interested in perpetuating
Lafayette's memory We urge that
statutes of Lafayette be decorated
throughout the nation on September
g. For nearly a century and half our
speech in America has evinced our
gratitude to Lafayette and what he
stands for. Now let our acts on Sep
TENDER attest the sincerity of our
words New York Times.

THE HOOVER RATION

In spite of our justified pride in the
achievements of the "Yanks," it is
well for us over here to realize that
we have not yet done as much for the
allied cause as have the countries we
have joined in the fight. Belgium and
France have suffered vastly more than
we shall ever be called upon TO ex-
perience. Their lands have been the
battle-ground.
The oft-quoted statement that If we
contributed as many men, proportion
ately. to the allied armies as England
has, the number would be well over
100000, names another case in
point.
We have lost some factories and ma
terials through pro-German plottings.
But we have not had our cities
bombed.
In other words, we have still long
road to travel before we can claim
actually to have shared-and-shared-
alike with our allies in the war.
There is one thing in which we are
at present on equal terms with Great
Britain That is in our sugar ration.
theoretically the English and Ameri-
can sugar rations are alike, two
pounds of sugar per person per month.
Practically, however, England has not
quite enough sugar TO absolutely guar
antee that full amount to her people.
IL is the rate she is striving TO main
tain. Frances ration-nominally IL
pounds-is in fact barely half of ours.
Here at least are some definite
figures to work on. They should make
il easier for us to cut down our sugar
consumption, and a matter of pride
to keep well within the allowed two
pounds.
Those who need sugar for health
considerations, those upon whom
great demands for physical and nery-
Gus energy are made, must of course.
use what they need. For all the rest
of us. let's take the slogan, Sugar
first for our fighters and for our al
lies" Why not establish an honor
ration of two pounds minus?

FARM BOYS MAKE
MONEY FROM MOLES

Remember that the mole IS the
Kaiser's land submarine, and II is up
to us TO eradicate them as our nation
is cleaning out the sea pirates, reads
a letter from a county agent in Ore
gon TO a young hunter of Oregon City.
Western Oregon is carrying on an
intensive campaign to save her gar
dens and crops from the rayages OF
moles. The skin of a native mole Is
as valuable as any pelt which can be
imported: hence county agents de-
vised the plan of organizing the boys
in each county to wage war on the
moles. The skins are concentrated
in a pool by the agent and are mar
keted when a sufficient quantity has
accumulated. Oregon farm lads gain
pin money and satisfaction from this
work of protecting farm crops against
rodent enemies.
