"World Relief Work" is an approach- ng event to awaken people to the fact that war duties are not over. Recon struction of the ruined countries of Eu rope is a burden tnat this country must bear in a large measure, because the bility of the allied nations have been taxed to almost the limit and they have uffered tremendous loss of man-power. Conservation of foodstuffs is essential ow in order that the population of practically all of the European coun tries, including those who have been eutral, may have food. The neutral countries have the money to pay for food, but no stores to draw upon except save those in this country. Tuesday, November 26, pursuant to the call of Food Administrator Ayer, 11 of the county food, administrators of Oregon, together with a leading Oman representative of each county, 111 meet here to hear a message from Herbert Hoover that will be delivered a special representative from Mr. Hoover's staff in Washington. Follow ing this meeting the county represen tatives will return to their homes to direct the preparations for the observ ance of the week of December 1-7, in clusive. Friday, December 6, there will be special exercises in all public schools devoted to educating the public upon the great responsibility resting upon the Food Administration and the Amer ican people. Mrs. C. H. Castner, president of the State Federation of Women's Clubs, has undertaken the work of having all clubs affiliated in that organization prepare for special exercises on Wednesday, December 4. It is stated by the representatives of the Government that 180,000,000 people in the lands famine stricken or de vastated by war will starve this Winter unless America provides the food for their sustenance. 1 i t 3 "You've Got to Be Sure of Yourself before you can ever win -a prize." That is absolutely true with all people, and under all conditions. If you haven't developed character by hard persistent effort, if you don't know yourself to be strong and dependable, you will probably be more or less of a failure in life. The mere effort to save money, especially if it means a real sacrifice of pleasures, has a compelling effect upon one. And the possession of a bank account inspires a feeling of confidence in your own ability. This bank, for fifty-nine years concerned in business affairs of this community, is always glad to encourage young people in helping them selves to successful lives.
