GITB LOAN BONDS TO THE
RED CROSS.
Every patriot tan help hia
country in twofold fashion If he
or she is a buyer of one or more
liberty loan bonds. For he helps
his country finance Its gigantic
share of the -burden of the war
when he buyB the bond, and he
can at once turn around "and
hand the bond over to the Red
Cross war relief furtd as his con
tribution to that noble cause in
lieu of cash subscription.
Word was received yesterday
from the National Red Cross War
Council by local headquarters
that liberty bonds would be ab
solutely satisfactory as gifts to
the Red Cross fund.
In view of that fact, the local
campaign committee In charge of
the $200,000 drive will make every
endeavor to Induce liberty loan '
bond buyers to turn all or at least
a portion of their bond holdings
over to the war relief fund.
ter that will be of interest to Portland
friends iind parishioners:

PAST COMMANDER'S JEWELS
TO BE PRESENT TO 21.
A ocum ulatlng- added strength at
very step and increasing its scope with
every hour, Portland's organization of
Red Cross forces is plunging into its
work of preliminary preparation with
enthusiasm and with the determination
to raise every dollar of the $200,000 the
city has been called upon to contribute
toward the $100,000,000 President Wll
fon has asked the Nation to raise.
That Portland stands ready to put her
shoulder to the wheel in the biggest
proposition she has faced since America
entered the war is evident from the
willingness with which her biggest and
busiest citizens are responding to the
call of the war council through the
local Red Cross committee.
Each day adds new recruits to the
drive. Business and professional men
whose private interests are large are
closing their desks and Joining in the
work necessary to the success of Fort-
land's effort.
The first big rally of the campaign
forces will be held today at the Hotel
Benson, where General Chairman W.
B. Ayer will entertain the 20 team
captains who are to supervise the big
drive, together with the chairmen of
important committees and Red Cross
chiefs at luncheon. ' At this luncheon
the personnel of the 20 teams, com
prised of 10 "men each, will be an
nounced by the team captains, who
have been busy for a week selecting
men of exceptional managerial ability
Xor this work.
Tasks "Will Be Assigned.
Definite and detailed tasks will be
assigned to these teams, and specific
instructions will be given to the work
ers as to the methods to be followed
and important points to be covered in
making the big' drive. An inspirational
address by Dr. John H. Boyd will be
made, emphasizing .the great humani
tarian work of the Red Cross, the im
perative demands now made upon "it,
end the urgent need for every' patrlotio
man and woman in America to give
generously of their money so that the
American boys who are giving their
lives for their country may have
proper hospital care when wounded in
battle.
The first public address on behalf
of the Red Cross and its call for the
patriotic help of Portland's citizens
will be made by Dr. Boyd tonight at
8 o'clock at the dedicatory exercises
at the Festival Center.

consecutive 24 hours. Also that he

tions from all points in his territory,
with amounts of $1000 or over' with
the names of the donors. . . ' '
"We have-adopted that plan of arousing-
interest," explained Stone, "so that
each of the communities or large popu
lation centers may be thoroughly ad
vised right. down to the minuteas to
what the principal contributors in all
other sections in ' this territory are
jjiving.
"Every time Portland, Seattle, Taco

reports a gift of $1000 or more, we
will see that this information goes to

We expect that this plan will- result
