Conserves are f1alit products prepared
by combining several different kinds of
fruits which blend well. Where small
fruits are used in the preparation, these
are sometimes used whole, or they may
be cut into small pieces, as is done with
the larger varieties. Raisins or nuts, or
both, are sometimes added These add
desirable favors and increase the food
value of the product. Conserves are
uesd as condiments and make excellent
spreads for sandwiches. In preparation,
enamel or agate ware vessels should be
used. The following have been selected
from a long list of directions for max
ing some of these which have been APP
proved by the experience of many prae'
teal housewives.

Open to- Draft Men;
Meetings Set.

Hereafter, departing drafted men,
troops here on furlough and all men
lin the service Of Uncle Sam who
Ichance to be in Pendleton for a few
hours or days are to be given the
recognition and entertainment their
due. All are to be extended the pri-
lvileges Of the Commercial and Elk
lclubs and each group of men called
under the selective service law will be
given q smoker before departure for
training camps.
These things were provided for at
the meeting of the Commercial Asso-
ciation last evening upon the recon-
mendation of the executive board of
the Umatiila County Patriotic Service
League. Roy Raiey, speaking for the
board, called Attention to Pend1eton
and Umatilla county's delinquency in
the matter of entertaining men called
for service. Such recognition as has
been given has been more or less spas
modic and unorganized, he stated,
while some groups had been permit
ted to go without being noticed by the
public. He blamed this oversight not
to indifference but to the failure of
anyone to take the lead.
| Upon his motion the association
voted enthusiastically to grant the
privileges of the club rooms to all
men in Glass / after they are called,
to all men in the service who may be
here on furlough or stationed here
anG the carrying out of the motion
was left in the hands of the entertain
ment committees of the Commercial
Association and Elks' Club. Judge
Phelps. speaking for the Elks, de-
clared the lodge was in full sympathy
with the move.
A second motion left to the enter
tainment committee of the CONNER
clal Association the matter of pro-
viding a smoker and entertainment
for each group of drafted boys prior
to their departure. A third motion
left in the committees hands the mat
ter of giving a sendoff to Pendleton's |
first yeomanettes .one Of whom is
leaving today.
Educational Meeting Planned.
The patriotic service league, coop |
Grating with the draft board, is max |
ing arrangements for meeting for |
all men in Glass i at an early day for |
the purpose of giving them informa-
tion which will prepare them for the /
duties ahead of them. The meeting |
will be for them exclusively and will
probably be addressed by an attorney
who VIII instruct the men in the mat
ter of insurance. in their civil rights
etc, by doctor who will talk along
the lines of social hygiene. by a mill
tary man who will prepare the men
for life at army cantonments and by
a home guard officer who will offer
instruction.

A collection of photographs in uni
fern of all the men in army and ma
Wy service from Umatilla county has
been started by the County Library.
| 1t is also planned to make a COM
plete alphabetical card index of ali
these men in service. This win also
be kept in the library for the use of
the public. On each card will be CIV
en- the order. number, age. date of ac-
ceptance at mobilization camp, de-
partment of service and whether vol
unteer. officers rank with date, and
present military address. On the
back of the card will be given name
and adress of nearest relative.
As there are to date several hun
dred OF these cards to compile and
photographs to collect, the assistance
OF relatives of the soldiers is invited.
Unmounted photographs are prefer
red of six or seven inch lengths, al
though other sizes will be acceptable.
Mall the photos to 'Umatilla County
Library. Pendleton. Oregon" and on
separate paper give as much as pos
sible of the above information which
is to be typed on the index cards.
Nearly Ninety Per Gent Volunteers.
So far there have 333 men of draft
age gone into service from this coun-
ty. 294 of whom have volunteered.
Besides this number are many others
under and over the draft age limits
whA have volunteered but whose
names are not given in any official
list in Pendleton. 1t is especially ne
cessary therefore that relatives of
these enlisted men furnish the library
with the Information needed to make
the files complete.
Do 1t Now.
1t is desirable that q large proper
ton of this material be collected this
week. The do It.Now' slogan would
accomplish splendid results.
The generous part that Umatilla
county is taking in the great world
war should certainly be recorded for
historical purposes and the County
Library makes this beginning In pre-
serving photographs and records.

The farms OF this country could
carry the war to a victorious con-
clusion even IL all the rest of the ma
tons should quit. The rest will not
quit: but we could win it without
them it we had to do 1t. The farmers
OF the United States can whip Ger
many. We can whip them with guns.
We can whip them with our products.
We can whip them with our money.
Every farmer in the United States
must remember that the war has a
first mortgage on every cent he has.
The last spare cent in the pockets of
every farmer in America should be
devoted to the war.
The Kaiser began foreclosing his
mortgage on our farms when he de-
clared ruthless submarine warfare.
The war is our answer to his bill of
foreclosure.
Our contribution is, first, our sons
and brothers for the trenches; sec
ond, the last pound Of food products
which we can grow by mobiIizing our
scanty labor supply, utilizing the men,
women and children and the towns
people about us; and third, money
for Liberty Bonds.
This is the crucial year Of the war.
Our soldiers are at the front. hun
dreds of thousands of them in the
trenches, and q million more ready to
60. The whole burden of carrying on
our own part in the war, and of aid
ing our sister nations in arms, rests /
on the United States Treasury.
II the treasury fails or falters or
dnds itself unable to respond to every |
call upon it, the war is lost. Do you
realize that?
Your son, and all the nations sons
are relying on the United States
Treasury to furnish things with which
they may fight.
Their lives are lost If the treasury
falls. Our country is lost IL the treas
ury fails.
Germany wins II the treasury fails.
Therefore every cent you can rake
and scrape together belongs to the
treasury, that our soldiers may come
back to us alive and victorious. This
is literally true. We can whip the
Germans with our money; but not
with the money in our pockets or
bank accounts. Il must go into the
United States Treasury in subscrip-
tons to Liberty Bonds.

THE WAR, THE FARM
AND THE FARMER
By Herbert Quick
Member Federal Farm Loan Board

While Gerard was our ambassador
in Berlin, the Kaiser said to him one
day that he would stand no nonsense
from America after the war
Do you know what that means? It
means that the Germans intend to
subjugate this country If they come
out of this war victorious.
The German Imperial government
has preached the superiority of Ger
many to all the rest of the world un-
til the German nation is drunk with
megalomania- One OF their great
writer's expressed the prevailing, of.
fetal view in 1908, when he wrote:
"The Teutonic race is called upon
to circle the earth with its rule, to ex-
ploit the treasures of nature and of
human power, and to make the pas
sive races servient elements in its
cultural development Who
ever has the characteristics of the
Teutonic race is superior All the
dark peoples are mentally inferior, be-
cause they belong to the passive
races. The cultural value of a ration
is measured by the quantity of Teu-
tonism it contains"
Are you one OF the darker races?
Are you willing to be rated as one
of the ''servient elements" in Ger
many's cultural development?
You began to be one of the 'servi-
ent elements" when peaceful people
were slaughtered as they carried your
produce to market Was 1t because
you belonged to a passive racer"
This war is for the purpose OF say
ing to that insane claim, with the
roar of hundred thousand cannon
moi"
Never since the Turks threatened
to overwhelm Europe was the world
in such danger as now. Germany
must be defeated this year. Unless
we win, our place in the world is
lost, and our history as one of the
'servient elements" begins. We must
withhold nothing from the support of
the war. We must give our sons. We
must bring forth food in abundance.
We must give into the treasury Of the
United States every cent We can
spare.
This summer the support OF the war |
Is up to the farmers; and Uncle Sam |
has never called upon the farmers in /
vain!
