.to keep your boy your neighbor's boy on the firing line
I To Protect Your Country .
I To Perpetuate American Freedom
To Keep the Demon Hun From Your Door.
We can't act too quickly. The danger is imminent. We will be tardy at beet. Don't stop to think, any more
than you would stop to think whother to strike back If you were threatened by an assassin.
. , Will you Jeopardize your liberty by falling to do your duty? He who hesitates Is most assuredly lost.
. j All that your forefathers fought and died for Is lost All that the patriots of '66 fought for Is lgst.
This Is your great opportunity. Use It and
i Take your place aa a real American.
FIGHT, BUY OR
f SHOW WHY
That's What We're Up to In
the Third Loan-.
THE HUN GOES MARCHING ON
AND AMERICAN B0Y8 BLEED
WHILE THE TIGHT WADS
; WAVER.
I It's up to this fight, buy or show
why I
I Every American who can afford to
ilmy a Liberty Bond will be expocted
to buy.
1 If he refuses, the searchlights or
,public opinion will be so turned upon
: Iblm that he may be put into the posi
tion of having to explain why he de
lates the government the use of his
' surplus money, If the plana of the
iNatlonal Liberty' Loan headquarters
at Washington are carried out.
I Information regarding the standing
lot every Individual, his worth, his in
come, his Red CroBs activities,
amounts which he has subscribed to
the First and Second Liberty Loans,
war work which he has done, his
patrlotlo attitude, and other details,
will all be carefully listed on a ques
tionnaire which will be kept on file
by the government.
Questionnaires, . prepared In Spo
kane tor use In Eastern Washington,
contain 34 questions. One has to be
' filled out for every man, woman and
child above 15 years of age. Among
, the Inquiries were, nationality, pres
ent occupation, name of employer,
lather trades or occupations qualified
' In, Liberty Loan subscriptions, earn
ings, Rod Cross war funds, Red Cross
'members In family; miscellaneous war
donations, war activities engnged In,
patrlotlo attitude, general reputation,
.opposition to war work, it any.
1 Considering the fact that Oregon's
' percentage appears to bo rather low
lin comparison with other federal dis
tricts, the local Liberty Loan Commit
tee feels that It may be necessary to
'. adopt some auch means here of re-
, minding the people that they iniiBt do
something to save the reputation of
- jthemselves and their Btate. Cards arc
Inow being prepared. The Information
ifor these cards will be gained by the
'captains of the different city pro
' clncts, after- the cardB have been as
' .signed to their proper districts by
postal employes. In the rural dis
tricts over the state, the work of In-
. idexlng the Inhabitants has been going
on for soma time.
Authorisation for obtaining tho In
formation comes from Washington.
' iWben the system Is finally complete,
- and when Uncle Sam makes the ao
iqualntance of all his citlsens and
knows their means and their obllga-
tlons, then John .Tones must be In
duced to make him a loan or be able
i to (Ira ad excellent reason why.
OREGON OFFICIAL SLOGAN
' The prize winning phrase was won
by Florence B. Hoyt of Portland. It
I is used in all advertising of tho Third
Liberty Loan In Oregon. Many of the
other slogans from nil over the state
are used In connection with the car
toons being run by tho Oregon press.
Oregon writers and UliiBtratorB have
all donated their best services in aid
of tho Third Liberty Loan.
PUT IRON IN OUR SOULS!
The Spirit of the First Line Trenches
Needed In Loan Drive.
"A little more iron In our bouIs,"
was the appeal made by Late Young
In Des Moines recently, "a little more
of the Bplrit of our soldiers, a stimulus
that will give us a relontless and un
dying determination to wipe the Ho
honzollcrn monster from the face of
the earth."
American people are noted for their
complacency, their seeming willing
ness to enjoy the fruits of their pros
perity, leaving to others the task of
fighting their war for them. They do
not stop to realise the enormity of
Germany's crime and the Intense seri
ousness ot the present world war of
self-preservation, the supreme test ot
our manhood and our civilisation. ,
Our soldiers are doing their part,
but, Bays Mr. Young, "how pitiful are
Red Cross contributions, Liberty
Bonds and Y. M. C. A. gifts compared
With the sacrifices and sufferings ot
our soldlors. We have comfort, hap
piness, the ties and affections of home.
But they, like Immortal Alan Seeger,
have their 'rendesvous with death.'"
"We are proud," he continues, "that
America has met her duty, true to her
best traditions. And may God grant
that those of us at home tail not In
one single obligation to our soldiers,
to our Allies, to our country!"

BE NO SLACKER;
BE A BACKER
In the Twilight Zone of War
Financing.
FOR THE NEED FOR PROTECTION
IS GREATEST WHEN EVENING
APPROACHES AND THE WORK.
ER TEND8 TO REST.
(By John W. Kelly)
Upon a time there was a farmer
whose sheep were threatened by coy
otes, so he decided to protect them
at night with a high, tight fence. All
day he labored And when evening ap
proached It was almost, but not quite,
Completed.
The farmer was fagged, twilight,
was approaching and Instead of nail
ing up the remaining boards he drove
jii the sheep and decided to take a
phance. In the morning he discovered
the ravages caused In the flock by the
enemy marauders; the fence he had
built for protection was no protection,
because when twilight came be failed
lo finish it.
1 Don't permit your patriotism to suc
cumb to the twilight zono!
! In the twilight there Is a slacking
of Industry, a tendency to take things
Indifferently to loaf,
1 j Having performed a good day's
' work, twilight finds a man tired of
the heat and the burdens, ready to
est and congratulate himself on hiB
accomplishments. !
The Third Liberty Loan is in the
twilight zone of war financing. ,
I ' Twice have the people of Oregon
jabored lndefattgably and accomplish
ed a great work In over-subscribing
the Btate'B allotment.
', Now eomea the real test now Is to
disclose whether they still have the
vigor, and patrlotlo strength hereto-
fore displayed.
i It remains to be seen whother they
will consider their duty performed
and are oontent to slacken, to take
things Indifferently, to loaf on the Job
ot patriotism.
' . After a day In the fields It. requires
spunk and pluck to tackle additional
work In the twilight. The man who
determines to press the labor a little
further to make a real finish to the
day's stunt, is doing something for
himself. And so Is It with those who
have helped in tho previous bond tl
tatlons. There is a bit more to do be
fore turning In; a little more exertion
and patience and drain on the re
, sources.
I But It patriotism is not lulled Into
, Indifference of the twilight, the fence
of protection will be completed.
Take no chances. Every bond la
o board In the fence to keep out the
Hun coyotes.
Report, but don't repeat.
Help In Germany's defeat.

HOW RETURNS ARE NOTED
Map Systom to Be Used During Third
Liberty Loan Drive.
Returns from the various counties
of the state will be Indicated at the
Oregon State Central Liberty Loan
headquarters, Portland, on a color
scheme map, as will every town and
district in which a quota has been
assigned, by a yellow thumb tack.
The counties will have a large headed
tack and the districts a small yellow
one.
: As soon as one-half of the assigned
quota has been reached in each town
'or district a red thumb tack will re
place the yellow one on the map.
similarly with the counties on the
state map. Each county headquartera
will have their own map with the
county divided Into convenient dis
tricts which are to be bulletined like
wise. When the full quota in each town
and district Is attained it will be des
ignated by a blue thumb tack. This
system will afford an accurate check
'and will indicate those counties and
'districts of the state which are doing
'the most effective work In the Third
Liberty Loan Campaign,

jwill be sent out with the Government
household questionnaire upon which
ils written pertinent facts concerning
the Individual's ability to subscribe.

card will be sent Into district bead
quarters. When more than one-halt
but less than the full assignment has
been received a red card replaces the
yellow, and a blue card is used when
ithe full quota of the Individual has
been subscribed. This Bysteni gives
an aocurate and detailed check on
every person and the state and county
headquarters will know exactly what
can be expected and what is being
done.
The master map at Washington, D.
C, will indicate the advance in each
state and the entire country.
Everyman's Pledge. ' '
America shall win this war!
Therefore, I will work, I will save,
I will sacrifice, I will endure. I will
fight cheerfully, and to my utmost
as it the whole outcome of the strut
gla depended upon me alone.
