other states, notably Massachusetts,
and Kansas, have made appropriations
of from $500 to $50,000 for the well

with various organizations in the In

who takes special care Of the South
Carolina men, and gives help to all
other southern soldiers, and by Mrs.

"OREGON FIRST"
By Robert E. Smith, Executive
Manager.

BY Robert +. Smith, Executive
Manager.
The world through which we have
so recently passed is the greatest
event in the worlds history since the
beginning of the Christian era. The
part which Oregon has played in this
world war will be remembered long
after we and our children arc dead.
Our heritage of this war will be our
,ecord of patriotic achievement, and
lis record will be made in two ways:
will be the record of our boys who
"ere III the service, and the record
N, Sc Of us who stayed at home
and tried to do cur part by sup
porting our Government and the
Boys
Oregon's military record stands
head and shoulders above that of any
other state. Oregon was first in the
enlistment and had larger percen-
tage of its population under arms
tlidh any otHCl OtolC III tllC UulOU,
The records of the old Third Oregon,
the Coast Artillery and the 91st
Division are records which will
never die and of which every Oregon
citizen may we'll be proud. The record
If Lieut. Burgard who was five times
wounded and who led $50 Oregon
boys over the top, of which 218 were
left upon the battle field after an
hour and twenty minutes of fighting
is only one of a number Of instances
Of valor by Oregon men which will
never be forgotten. Lieut.. Doris
made his way to brigade head quar-
ters after having his lower jaw shot
away in order that another officer
might be detailed to his company-all
Of the other officers having been
killed. Although he was decorated
with the croiX de guerre for this act
of heroism, the best appreciation of
this act will be found in never dy-
ing recollection of it by the people of
Oregon. There is no instance of
record whore Oregon troops faltered
under fire., and the record of our
boys in service is 100% perfect.
So far the record of Oregon's
citizenry in its patriotic duty has
been perfect. We have been foremost
in patriotic drives of every kind,
having twice led the Nation in
Liberty Loan Campaigns. 1t is a
distinct privilege for those of us who
stayed OF home to be permitted to
complete the wonderful record of our
boys by making 1000 record in our
duties Of citizenship. Yet 1t Is a
tremendous responsibility, as the

United WAR VETERANS.
\ National Organization Composed
OF All Soldiers of All Mrs.

\ National Organization Composed
OF All Soldiers of All Wars.
The United War Veterans, a Ma
tional organization, has been formed
to include in its active membership
all veterans of the Civil War. Span
ish War, and World War.
The objects are: To unite in
fraternal bonds, through national,
state. local and foreign organizations,
all soldiers and sailors of the United
States; to perpetuate Memorial Day,
as established by the Grand Army of
the Republic, and to preserve from
neglect the graves of Our Nation S
Dead; to secure employment for and
to assist our comrades, their widows,
orphans and dependent relatives; to
promote loyalty, mutual aid and CO.
operation among them in all lines of
endeavor; to secure from Congress
and other legislative bodies the en-
actment of laws beneficial to the
welfare of our comrades. and to
secure employment for those who
have returned to civil pursuits in con-
sonance with laws which prefer
honorably discharged soldiers and
sailors for government service; to
provide and establish homes for
orphans and dependent children of
our comrades; and to inculcate the
principles of universal liberty and
justice to all mankind of loyalty to
our country, reverence for its institu-
tions, obedience to its laws and dis
countenance whatever tends to weak
en- these sentiments.
The organization consists of active
members. called comrades; and in
addition thereto an honorary men,
bership consisting of persons who
formed distinguished or faithful SER
vice or engaged in efforts for the re-
lief of disabled and suffering soldiers
and sailors, or who to a conspicuous
extent became interested in promot-
ing the moral welfare and physical
comfort of troops in camp or in field,
or who are honorably discharged
soldiers or sailors of any of the
Allies of the United States in the
World War.
1t urges that members OF other
patriotic organizations continue their
memberships in such organizations,
but join the United War Veterans in
addition, in order to have one united
organization of all soldiers of All
Wars.

military or naval service, and the
