OREGON WILL NOT PAIL.
Oregon first in army and navy enlistments.
Oregon first in Liberty Bond over-subscription.
Now add the third great entry on the National Honor
roll.
. Oregon first to over-subscribe its $600,000 quota of the
$100,000,000 Red Cross emergency war service fund.
II. L. Corbett, chairman of the state council of defense,
believes it will be done.
W. B. Ayer, general chairman of the Portland cam
paign committee, which is responsible for raising $200,000,
believes it will be done,
Oregon's biggest business men, Oregon's most prom
inent women thousands of them are devotine practically
full; time to the campaign, regardless of personal sacri
ficebelieve it will be done.
Very soon the story will be sold. Red Cross Week be
gins today and ends June 25. In a short 7 davs the state
generally must raise $85,914 a day, $10,475 for each hour
of an 8-hour working day.
It will be done. The task is great, but Oregon's will
ingness is greater. Never Iras Oregon failed in full re
sponse to the appeal to generosity and now the Universal
Service of Mercy pleads. t
'. The President of the United States proclaims Rod Cross
Week and asks in behalf of the nation at war that the
$100;000,000 be given. The wounds and agony awaiting
the soldiers that we send across the sea beg that we fur
nish the Red Cross hospitals, physicians, nurses, stretcher
bearers, medicines and bandages in time to serve their
terrible need.
And tire mother whose yearning arms reached emptily
after her soldier boy who has marched awav, holds out
those arms pleadingly toward the patriotically generous
of Oregon; her full, tender heart anxiously, '"Will ,you
give the Red Cross ability to save my boy's life when he is
wounded, and to care for me?"
It is nn appeal that Oregon can not, will not, resist.
Red Cross Week offers Oregon an opportunity to com
plete her splendid record.
. Remember that the American Red Cross is financed out
of private subscriptions because if financed by the gov
ernment it would cease to have the status of a neutral on
the battle fields and its work might be handicapped or
destroyed. Remember, that subscriptions made now may
be paid in 25 per cent installments, .Tulv 1, August 4, Sep
tember 1 and October 1.
Union has sot the ball rolling in fine stvlc. Union
raised its Red Cross quota of $1500 the dav before the big
drive started. '

"JIFFY JELL RECIPE BOOK
WORTH ASKING FOR.
One of the leading: women's maga
zines is continually telling its more
than million readers that recipe book
lets offered by advertisers make val-'
uabte' additions to the cook-book shelf.
A rapid glance at the pages of a
little booklet at hand distributed by
the manufacturers of "Jiffy-Jell," a
new gelatine dessert, yields very con
vincing testimony that the magazine
editor knows whereof she speak.-!.
There is .'nothing more appetizing
than vari'ety. Give "hubby" gelatine
prepared in exactly the same way
every evening for two -weeks,- and he
would get pretty tired of it. But
here, in this little "Jiffy-Jell" book
are noted 19 different ways to pre
pare "Jiffy-Jell," all so different that
if they were used every evening for
nineteen days not a member of the
family would see a bit of similarity,
but on the contrary, all would be
keenly interested in the tempting
variety of new desserts being set be
fore them.
The regular cook book is a great
first aid in cooking, but it can't be
expected to keep strictly up-to-date.
On the other hand, manufacturers of
food products have the highest-
priced culinary experts in the country
in their bright, sanitary kitchens
working out new and tempting dishes,
and not a month goes by but sees the
issuing of many a handsome recipe
booklet, offered free to the housewife,
but, because qf its up-to-the-minute
character, not only worth sending for
but even worth paying handsomely
for.
"Tomato Aspic," "Supreme Salad,"
"Jiffy-Jell with Chocolate and Nuts"
do these sound interesting? Then
send for the Waukesha, Wis., Pure
Food company's "Jiffy-Jell" booklet.
It tells, incidentally, some interesting
things about this gelatine which uses'
purefruit juices in liquid form rror,
flavoring. . ... -
