There were 6631 subscribers TO the

almost a third of the population, The
ratings were made upon a basis of
$40, goo which was 5000 more than the
quota and the subscriptions totaled
S43.i91.l6 which speaks chedilably for
the generosity of our citizens as well
as for the zeal of the solicitors, The
campaign was put upon a cash basis
insofar as possible and of the 66Sl
subscribers only 25 took advantage of
the installment plan. At this time

Second Red Cross DBive,
Below are given a few extracts from
the report of M. II. Chessman, League
secretary. which shows the efficient
manner in which the Patriotic Service
League has been able to work through
Its organization:
'"The system of campaign used by
the Patriotic Service League, j. e., the
listing, rating and soliciting of each
potential contributor in the county,
proved very satisfactory. Our maxi
mum rating was 5000 and there were
but three contributions at that fig
ure. All others were from $1,0Q to
Sl25. In the, first Red Cross War
Fund campaign, because of the impos-
sibility of systematizipg the methods
of raising the money. a considerable
number Of $250 subscriptions were
taken and q few as high as $500 BY
distributing the quota among all Of the
people able, to contribute as much as
pne dollar rather than putting the bur-
den on q comparatively few 'of those

has been able TO reduce the average
subscription very materially. For in
stance. the number of subscribers to
the First War Fund in Pendleton was

$23,229.36, making an average sub

making this over subscription, which
was before the organization of the
league, IL was found the burden of the
subscription had been borne by the
generous and enthusiastic, who in
many Instances could IN afford to be
so generous. At the same time there
were others not inclined to be so liber-
oil whowere not bearing their full
share OF the war burdens. one object
OF the league is to distribute these
burdens as eqnitably as possible among
all the people of the county,
Always Over Subscribe.
The Patriotic Service League piedg-
les for Umatilla county TO go over the
top in all war drives, has laid down
this principle. and figures to over
subscribe by 25 per cent every drive
called upon by the government.
Loyalty and patriotism is the
leagues watchword and in the prac-
tlce of these cardinal virtues 1t is the
desire to see that every citizen of tho
county Is l00 per cent American.
