P|NAL COUNTY'S QUOTA $238,0OO
RAY MUST RAISE NEARLY HALF Of
AMOUNT ASSIGNED, OR $109,355

The big drive for the Fourth Lib
erty Loan is, on.
Pinal county's quota has been fixed
at $238,000, much more than in any
previous loan.
Going over the top eighteen or twen-
ty times will not be the easy task it
was in the first, second and third
loans. Arizona has been called upon
for greater quota than ever before.
Pinal county's quota has been ap-
portioned to the several communities
in the following letter to local chair
man from County Chairman Gates:
Ray, Arizona, Sept. 25, 1918.
To the Local Chairmen, Pinal County.
Gentlemen: This is to advise you
that Chairman McClung has given
Pinal County a quota of $23S.O for
the Fourth Liberty Loan.

allotments that have been made to the

Pills have been of great bene-
fit to me and in fact, attribute four
teen years of my life to them. 1t was
in 1902 that l was suffering a great

WAGES IN GERMANY
(Anaconda Standard

An exhaustive article in recent
number of the Literary Digest gives
interesting information as to wages
paid in Germany in all classes of la
Dor and trade, Much Of the informa-
ton is obtained from a summary sent
out by the general imperial statisti-
cal office, 1t shows the average wages
per days in various important groups
to be as follows: Metal industry,
1872; engineering industry, $1.2S;
electrical industry, $1.O7; paper in
dustry, 1922; woodworking industry,
$1.O1; chemical industry, 1924; stone
working and pottery, $1.O7; leather
and rubber, $1.2O.
The earnings of coal miners run
from $G97 to 1894 per year. The av-
erage earnings of miners In copper
mines amount to $271. The wages of
plumbers are from $1.13 to $1.39 per
day. In Butte they are striking for
50 per day. Journeymen printers in
Germany get $685. to s744 a week.
WOrkingmen in Germany will not
strike even though they are under
paid. They are sticking to their work
because their country needs their la
Dor. 1t is only in America that men
are helping the country win the war
by striking.

We believe that Alsace-Lorrane must
be returned to France. Italy rust
have the Trentino. We agree most
cordially with what the President said
in New York when he declared that
we were just as interested in def nd
ing Russia in the east as in our own
work on the western front. If Ger
many gets Russia and retains posses
sion of it that is a great victory, and
this war would have been fought in
vain. Finally, there must be free
Poland on Russia's western boundary,
and free Jungoslav state on her
southwestern boundary.
"Then | want to say that the cause
of the allies in our cause and our
cause in theirs. Be he a German or
an agent of some other party or or
ganization | care not, the man who
attacks one of the allies attacks us
all. The day for casuitry is gone by.
Those who are not with us are against
us. That is the unity to which we are
approaching with rapid strides. The
President has said that we are at the
peak in the crisis of the war. firm
ly believe that there can be but one
end, and that is the victory for which
we fight There may be many dark
hours before us as there have been,
but we shall come through. We can
not fail"

THE LIBRARY
As a Factor to Win the War Is Inyal-
liable in the Y. VI. G.. A. of the
CantOnmentS.

Camp Taylor, June 1O--The Ameri-
can nation is not a Fighting nation,
but it has accepted Germanys chal-
lenge and every effort of its people
will be directed to the one end--win-
ming the war.
This determination is shared by the
soldier in the cantonment. who in civil
life having been accustomed to make
himself proficient in his chosen occu-
patton, is now studying the business
of becoming soldier in order to be
thereby the better enabled to serve
his country.
This interest is not confined to the
officers. Men in the ranks. in every
branch of the service, spend great
part of their leisure time in storing
away knowledge gained from reading
books.
In every cantonment there is a
camp library, usually large build
ing capable of housing from $4,000 to
10000 books and with accommoda-
tons for 800 readers. These books
may be read free of charge in the Ii
brary or taken to the barracks.
In every Y. NJ G. A. building There
are nine at Camp Taylor, in these
environments there is subsidiary IL
brary supplied by the central branch
and should you enter one of these
buildings after the evening mess you
would be surprised to see the num-
her of soldiers gathered at the tables,
or at the comfortable writing desks,
reading military text books. Even
though it may not concern their i'm
mediate duties they want to know all
about the big human fighting machine
that Uncle Sam is building so that
they may be more proficient as part
thereof
The library at Camp Taylor is To-
Gated conveniently near Division
Headquarters. 1t is conducted under
the supervision of George T. Settle Of
the Louisville City Library, and the
camp manager is j. f. Stantield Of
Chanute, Kansas, former student Of
the Kansas State Normal at Emporia
Kansas. Uniformed attendants cheer
fully greet all visitors and extend ev
cry possible aid to those who wish tC
pursue systematic course 70 reading
The books are on open shelves ant
can be had without formality.
As a factor to help win the war by
sustaining the morale of the army ant
imparting practical knowledge to Of
ficers and men the value of the CAM
library with its subsidiary circulating
libraries in the Y. NJ. c. A. buildings
can not be over estimated. 1t is con
sidered so valuable by General Per
shing that he has asked for shippins
space for books-50 tons a month
nearly 100000 books month-for ust
of the American army overseas.
Another valuable adjunct is that 9
book taken from the library need no
be returned before finished in case {
soldier is transferred or moves to an
other camp. 1t may be carried ant
read en- route with as many others a:
he may have space for, and turned il
at the camp library at his destination
or at the military camps overseas.
