.SMILEAGE CAM
PAIGN APPROACHES

A smilage drive will soon demand
the attention of the American people.
What is it? 1t will be conducted for
the purpose of raising 81. 1000. 900 with
which to provide entertainment for the
American soldier.
IL some time ago became evident
that $1,000, 900 will be required to
finance the work of coordination and
the operation of the Liberty Theatres,
Liberty Tents and Auditoriums already
erected in the cantonments and larger
encampments., and being provided for
other places where soldiers and sailors
will be stationed. At the conferences.
plans for raising this fund and for car
rying out the work were outlined in
detail, and the entire plan was officially
approved and heartily endorsed by the
conferences.
1t is proposed to raise the fund by
the sale of Smileage books. so called,
which may be sent by friends and rela-
tives of soldiers, and will be accepted
at Liberty theatres for admission.
The goal of 81, 600, 600 manifestIy is
easy of achievement when each city
subscribes for Smileage books to an
aount equivalent to five per cent of its
population. Thus, in city of l0,O0O
population, $500 or more would be SUBJ
scribed for Smileage. a simple task
under the leadership of lyceum and
chautauqua committees and other i'm
portant citizens.

WOMEN'S WEEK

Another drive is on. A worthy one.
Help it along all you can.
The Northwest is observing a week

CHAMBERLAIN BE-
uEVED in RIGHT

At least one Oregonian, who has for
merly been prominent in the ranks of
the states Democratic organization, is
unqualifedly back of United States
Senator George Chamberlain in his late
tilt with President Wilson.
Judge Derby, Hood River county's
district attorney and representative
from this county on the State Central
Committee, stated yesterday morning
that he would tender his resignation to
the Central Committee and become an
Independent in politics. at least until
the war is over.
''Instesd of displaying weak point
in his character" says Judge Derby,
''by expressing annoyance and anger,
President Wilson should have welcomed
the criticism made by Senator Cham
berlain in'New York city. Such criti-
cism is needed to spur the nation on to
effective war work. In the face of the
mistakes England made at the outset
of the war, we have seen our govern
ment pursuing the same policy that
England followed in the earlier days of
the war. Newspapers, prominent men
and national publications have been
too easy with the President. We have
need of Lord Northcliffe in this coun.
try"
Yet Judge Derby fears that the
President may defeat the aims of Sem
ator Chamberlain and leaders of con-
gress to provide the:.nation with war
cabinet.
Congress. says Judge Derby, "un-
4 E.. L. L..-
cutting red tape, has been very dila-
tory. President Wilson by his spur
ring messages got strong foothold
with the people of the country and
congress was put in bad light. Be.
cause Of this condition the President
may be victor in the impending fight. "

ADVERTISING

Advertising has ever been the magic
that makes the world move. But to-
day advertising has reached point
hiterto impossible because of lack of
a proper medium TO carry the mes.
sage of those who had story to tell.
A thousand times has the efficacy of
a wise use of printers ink and the
white space of newspaper and national
magazine been proven in the past dec
ade by progressive business concerns.
AS examples take the automobile busi-
ness, that of great rubber manufactur-
ing concerns, prepared grape and fruit
juice manufactures and hundred and
one other industries.
Advertising and the loyalty of Amer
lean newspapers and periodicals made
a most wonderful success of the Red
Cross, Y. M. c. A., Knights of Colum.
bus. and numerous lesser patriotic
drives. Advertising sold the Liberty
Bonds of 1917 and will bring about an
oversubscription of those of 1918. To
what is due the success of the War
Savings Stamp campaign? Advertis-
ing.
The tropical banana is today not
unusual food in every hamlet as the
result of merited publicity, and, too,
note the popularity of the orange.
Through advertising the consumer of
the country has been informed of the
superiority in grade and pack of
Northwestern box apples.
No great industry can thrive without
advertising. On taking over the rail-
roads of the country the government
desired to discourage passenger traffic
on eastern lines that more equipment
could be had for the handling of
troops, supplies and munitions. Quit
advertising, was one of the first orders
issued.
But advertising must be truthful.
tuiihHS ucceit may uc cilSCtiNe ioI q
time, but in the end the spread of
false copy will build up ''franken-
stein." Among nations in the past
none has been so great an advertiser
as the Germanic one. But the story
that the Prussian intriguer told has
been built on false conceptions of honor
and in mockery of God Almighty. 1t
has spread half truths, base insinua-
tions and devilish suggestions. All the
world has been victimized by German
deceit. Even the German people have
been:led tolsupport beliefs and to adopt
principles that have shamed them in
the eyes of their fellow men and caused
them to appear repulsive to the rest of
mankind.
'The truth well told" may we'll be
the watchword of pations, big business
and individuals.

Women Asked to Work
"Wake up women, it's war!"

81 wake up women, It's war
This is the rally call sent out to the
women of America. by Florence King.
a woman lawyer of Chicago, and presi.
dent of the Woman's Association of
Commerce of the United States of
America. Women, she asys, might
better be driving trucks than pleasure
cars. In statement she said:
1--WE women must wake up. We
must not wait for broken men to be
brought home to US from France be-
fore we come to realize to shoulder
our part in this war business.
Women will work if you'll tell
them what to do. It's not so much
what they can do. They must do what
the men have been doing. Lots of
women are knitting. Very well, but
many of them have got to drop that to
attend the wounded, grow food, enter
business and keep the factory wheels
moving. | have little patience with
able bodied women who are content
just to knit. Leave that to the women
and with children they cannot leave
and to semi-invalids.

Calvin S. White, now major in the
medical reserve corps: 81 would
rather have son Of mine take a year
in an army camp than two years in any
college in the country. For the man
who has been holding down sedentary
job the army is the greatest thing in
the world. The training that he gets
will not only add to his efficiency when
he returns to civil life but will prolong
his lifetime" Have you ever heard a
better argument for universal military
training?
