KEEP THEIR SPIRITS UP

The whole world has been cogniz-
ant of the wonderful morale our boys
have shown overseas-and America
is proud of them. The American, no
matter where placed nor how trying
the circumstance, is noted for his
courage, but there is reason for
the astonishing fighting qualities
displayed by our boys over there.
That reason" is the fact that the
boys facing the Germans know that
there is a nation-one hundred mill
lion strengthening them up in
their fight to crush Prussian mill
tarism.
The boys over there know that the
American Red Cross, and other or
ganizations in this country, are look
ing after their interests. And now
another big campaign is on to pro-
vide funds to care for the moral,
physical and spiritual needs of our
boys who may this winter be wallow"
ing about in the water-soaked
trenches, faithfully doing their duty
in keeping back the hordes OF the
kaiser. The organizations which
will participate in this campaign to
raise $40, 100000 for the American
soldiers, are: The Y. NJ. c. A., the
Y. w. c. A., the War Camp Commun-
ity Service, the American Library
Association, the knights of Colum-
bus, the Salvation Army and the
Jewish Welfare Board. The Ameri-
can Red Cross will not participate
in the drive. These organizations
will link the American soldier with
his home, keep his morale firm and
dispel gloom around his camp on
the battle front.
To support these organizations IN
the coming campaign is to support
your boy or your neighbor's boy
with comforts and conveniences this
winter. The amount to be raised is
not large, considering that the Unit
ed States is powerful nation OF one
hundred million people. One dollar
and seventy cents for each inhabi'
tant will net the amount, and every
cent is to be spent on the boys in
the service. There is spirit of CO.
operation among these organizations
and the friends of each must work
earnestly for the success of the
whole drive. Don't fail to contribute
to the fund.

There is law in Oregon, prohib-
iting the sale of wormy or diseased
apples, but the trouble is, the law is
not prohibiting such sales. Like the
man who said he could not be put
in Jail on certain charge, neverthe-
less, he made his statement while
looking through the bars.

Here is President Wilson's polite
way of calling the kaiser a liar: THE
nations of the world do not and can
not trust those who have been mas
ters of the German policy" Teddy
would have said you're a liar" and
let it go at that.

Governor Withycombe has served
Oregon faithfully, courageously and
ably. He has fostered industry and

sound in his views on fundamental
matters Of public policy, has had a
high conception of the dignity of the

Ham
Honesty

VOU wouldn't give a child a
= bottle of poison to play
with.
Yet when you let a child eat
ham that is unreliable you run
about the same risk.
Some ham, as you very well
know, is not fit to eat. It's not
properly cured, and it's kept from
rotting by poisonous preservatives
barred by the pure food law.
1t is your duty to buy ham only
where you know you'll get the
real article. This is most impor
tant. Buy here.
