THIS WAR IS YOUR WAR BUY A BOND. GOOD TIMES IN A GOOD COUNTRY. Germany has forced America, as it has forced practical ly the entire world, to lefnd itself by arms. Wo an fighting this war because Germany made war upon us America is a peaceful Nation; we have no lust for con quest, no desiro for annexation of territory; we are de fending ourselves against Germany because the Imperial German Govern ment entcrad upon a program which meant the destruction of nil America! institutions. When wo finally recognized that Germany was waging war upon u. we had seen more than 225 Americans, among them many women and child rcn, killed by German submarines; hospital ships had been sunk and unfoi tificd towns had been bombed and bombarded. Medals had been struck it honor of the sinking of the Lusitania, the murderous act by which so many of our men, women, and children, lost their lives, German officials had treat cd the United States, a neutral nation, as an enemy. Strikes were organise cd in this country, plants were blown up, pro-German publications were found ed and subsidized, and hatred of America was systematically sought to bl inculcated among our foreign-born inhabitants. Every effort wa3 made t involve us in trouble with Japan and Mexico. Our repeated protests wer. met with promises and explanations which were littlo better than insults Tho Imperial German Government finally proclaimed the unrestrictei destruction of neutral ships upon tho high seas. It was the notification t tho United States that our people were no longer sovereign, and that if the; would sail the seas in safety wo must conform to conditions laid down by i Government that defied international law, humanity, and elemental morality A policy of terrorism has been systematically applied by tho Imperia German Government since the outbreak of tho European war. Treaties thai stood in the way of German militaristic plans have been disregarded, womei and children haro been treated with indescribable brutality, the noblest work: of art have been destroyed, and prisoners hnvo been abused and maltrcatei and civilian populations massacred and jleported. This is why America has gone into this war in defense of America) honor and American rights. To have done anything else would have beci to surrender our sovereignty, and we would have been forced in tho end t fight a conscienceless and rapacious military autocracy an autocracy whicl is in this war avowedly for indemnities, aggrandizement, and the control o tho world. Our success moans that our children and our children's childrei will be able to enjoy pence. Buy a Liberty Bond, get behind your Government, and shorten thi war. This is your fight. Our men are giving their lives; you are only ask& to lend your money. There should be at least ono Liberty Bond in ever; home. Thcro is no better test of your Americanism. Fi PB F3 P3 Pa Business conditions in Vale and throughout Mulheur coun ty are exceptionally prosperous this fall. Sheep, cattle an horse- men are encouraged by tho late rains as range an' pasture have been greatly improved thereby. 1 Tho farmer i in the heighth of his glory with hay at the present figures while tho fruit and garden men are finding the most active market in th history of tho fruit industry. Labor shortage is the only drawback at th present time and tho only nvailablo relief for' that is the elimination o useless effort and tho application of unused power to practical work. ' A census of tho business men of Vale shows that trade is good, bet tcr than usual, and throughout the spring and summer building activity ha been considerable. Among tho numerous improvements mny be mentione( tho nddilion to the Valo Hot Springs Sanitarium, the building of the Dr. F J. Brown and tho Frank McKnight residences, the construction of the II E. Young Garage, now nearly completed, and tho erection of tho new coun ty jail ju3t recently commenced. Besides these many other improvement havo been nwdo and Yale has a splendid building record for 1917, over, thing considered. It pays to keep faith in your homo town and county, especially when better than ten to one development is promised in tho near future. f-Q Pa Rn m pa The Second Liberty Loan campaign is now undorwa; c.id it is n great relief for Vale to have the war funi' of tho Red Cross nil paid. Tho Vale Chapter and it auxiliaries over-subscribed their quota of tho Red Cros Fund far above the nvemge nmount and yet turned in 98 per cent of its sub Bcriptions at tho close of thoVampnign in cold cash. Jinny other chapter aro now trMng to collect on pledges secured nnd reported during campnigr week. It pays to clean up us you go, especially in work of public nature. Ps ra pn Pa Pa When the directors of the Vale Public Library asl USE THE LIBRARY, for your dollar as an nnnual membership fee t sustain that worthy institution, you of course wil dig up cheerfully. With your so doing you will havo done n worthy act foi tho good of tho general public in and near Vale, but you will not hnvo so cured nny grunt help for yourself. The only way that you can personallj receive the full benefit of tho library is to become n patron as well as v supporter. An ontoipriso always grows as its usefulness increases. Si IK H M ft Generally speaking the roads have been consider RAIN, RUTS, ROADS ably improved by the recent rain. In some places tho roads tiro in fine shape, having been systemat ically dragged during nnd immediately after tho rain. If your road is now full of rut uisUad of being a natural pavement it is becauso they wero not dragged. See that tho next shower is taken ndvantago of in tho interests of better roadg, P Pa Pa pa p . Another manifent uvidenco of tho prosperity of this county is shown by the bank statement of Soptembor 11, 1917, as compared with tho state menta of September 12, 1910. For tho first time- tho total of tho statement? of tho Vale banks aggregate over $1,000,000.00 and show an increaso over lait your of twenty per cent. Last year was considered a good year anil de iwsitg wero heavy yet they wuro nearly $200,000.00 below tho amount now in the local banks, which nuuuiu a gain of over ono third. Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Air planea ware reported to hnvo been seen near La Grande several weoks ago. The latest activity in that lino now conies from Butte. The hourg reported by oUorvors in each iustnnco wero entirely too early for resident in dry territory to be out.
