Citizens of Oregon, in the week ol November 11-18, will respond to the call of the United War Work Campaign for funds to make happy and effective the fighting men of the Nation. Thai the citizens will uphold the common wealth's notable record In doing ItH Bhare to win the war is taken for granted, once the needs are under stood. Oregon's quota In the Joint drive of the seven great organizations doing war service work Is J770.000. Presi dent Wilson authorized this united drive and named the participating bodies. The purposes for which the funds are needed and to which they are dedicated are vital to the war's success. ' The Y. M. C. A. has more than '2000 huts in the great battle zone and Is ministering to the boys overseas, In trench and camp, leaving undone noth ing it can do to help them. In America the "Y" is in every camp and canton ment. It is with the boyB "crossint; over" and, at request of the War De partment, has recently jolneo in the task of instructing selectlves even be fore they are called. War work of the Y. W. C. A. Ib thuB outlined by Mrs. William MacMaster, state chairman: - "Already we have In this country 2,000,000 women doing- actual war work, while another 2,000,000 have re leased -mon for service by undertaking their work, to the Y. W. C. A., 'the best big Bister In the world," has been committed by the government and mili tary authorities the seriouB respon sibility of directing the thought, creat ing the environment and furnishing the material needs of this army of girls. Already 105 hostess houBes' have been opened, War Service Clubs organ ized, the Patriotic League created, nurses sent where needed and now we are asked to furnish emergency hous ing for thousands of girl war workers." John W. Kelley, associate drive, di rector, says of the Knights of Columbus: "Knights of Columbus halls are In operation in all cantonments, training camps and naval stations in the United States and the halls are also establish ed with the American Expeditionary Forces in France, Italy, Russia and England. The motto Is 'Everybody Welcome', service being given Irrespec tive of race, creed, or rank. Millions of cigarettes, pipes, bouillon cubeB, gum packages and tons of chocolate have been given free to the soldiers over seas. . One of the specialties is the pro motion of athletlcB and a considerable Item in the budget Is for baseball equip ment, boxing gloves, etc. In the war zone the troopB are followed with motor trucks which are virtually traveling huts, fully stocked with ath letic goodB, stationery, cigarettes, and the like." Needs and activities of the Jewish Welfare Board, explained by Ben Sell ing, are: 'In one year the number of our field representatives has grown from 10 to 213. Now we are faced with the de mand for 400 additional workers In this country and 100 overseas. The money going Into our fund pays nec essary expenses and salaries, furnishes Bibles and prayerbooks by the thou sands and letterheads and envelopes by the million, and provides camp, edu cational and recreational activities for the fighters, both here and abroad." 'War Camp Community Service," explains Emery Olmstead, state chair man, "developed from the commission created by the War and Navy Depart ments, first known as the Fosdlck Com mission. The community is its partic ular field and thousands of workers are assisting the towns in caring for visiting soldiers and sailors, providing wholesome amusement and clean rec reation at-'l surrounding the camps with hospt'.ali'y." , Function. a of the American Library Association, says William L. Brewster, state chairman, are "to provide books and reading matter to the soldiers and jailors through co-operating agencies and directly." Thirty library build ings have been provided at canton ments; 3,750,000 donated books dis tributed; 1,000,000 books and tons of magazines sent abroad, and 600,000 needed military technical books bought and given the men. These are some things the Salvation Army does, according to O. C. Bortz aeyer, state chairman: "On lines of communication our huts are open day and night. Then, follow ing their methods, our men and women go right to the trenches and distribute chocolate, coffee, doughnuL: and pies. Sixty per cent of the 1000 workers are women. We have now 703 huts and 60 ambulances In service. In the past few months aid has been given the Red Cross in sending abroad 100,000 parcels." Here's your chance give to the Y. M., Y.
