Enlistment of speakers and other
preliminary arrangements for effective
prosecution of the Y. M. C. A. war fund
eubscription effort kept the city and
elate campaign forces extremely busy
yesterday.
Chaplain A. K. Mathews, of the reg
ular Army and stationed now at Fort
Stevens. Or., has been granted an in-
, definite leave from post duty that he
may "stump" the state on behalf of
the Y. M. C. A. Chaplain Mathews
' served as an enlisted man, with the
army of Cuban pacification. ' and after
that service devoted JO years to prep
aration for his life's work in the in
terests of Army men. He arrived in
' Portland yesterday and will begin his
; speaking tour at once.
Speakers to Tour State.
Another Army speaker is at hand in
i the person of Adam Edward Erwin. of
the Thirtieth Battalion, First Division,
; Canadian army, who arrived yesterday
to speak under the direction of the
' state campaign bureau. Private Erwin
spent two years on duty in France and
' eight months in England.
The call of the city speakers' bureau,
of which Milton Reed Klepper is head.
' for volunteers who will make addresses
before civic and fraternal bodies,
I schools and clubs has brought response
'from several persons whose services in
' this connection will be appreciated. A
problem that now confronts the bureau
leaders is that of transportation for the
speakers. An appeal was made yes
. terday for tlte donation of the use of
: 30 automobiles a portion of each day
next week, beginning Monday, in con
veying campaign orators to their va
rious appointments. Those who will
give assistance in this way are asked
to communicate with Mr. Klepper at
ttue Y. M. C. A. building.
Dial to Tell Progress.
Passersby at the corner of Sixth and
.'Alder streets yesterday were mystified
: over the object of a force of workmen
in constructing a giant framework of
timbers at the center of the street in
tersection. This is to be the monster
I "red triangle" clock, by means of
which progress of the $200,000 drive in
' Portland is to be recorded and an
, nounced to the public. An eight-foot
dial is to repose in a triangular frame
measuring 24 feet along each of Its
.sides and as a part of the pedestal is
to be constructed a speaker's stand.
Ex-Mayor H. R. Albee has consented
to take over the work of organizing the
: employed boys of Portland for service
in the "big push." To the boy of Ore
gon has been allotted the task of rais
ins $10,000 of the state's apportionment
rand the boys of this city are counted
"on to give valuable assistance toward
reaching the goals set.
J With the $35,000,000 war work fund
crusade as his topic. General Secretary
H. W. Stone is announced as the speak-
er Sunday morning at a special service
at the White Temple.
Y. M. C. A. CAMPAIGN INDORSED
; Major-General Leonard Wood Calls
; Attention to Important Work.
NEW YORK, Nov. 9. While lnvalu-
able service has been rendered by the
Y. M. C. A. in European war zones, the
' activities the organization is now fur
thering in National Army cantonments
in the United States are the most im
portant it has ever undertaken, in the
opinion of Major-General Leonard
Wood, who today issued a statement in
. dorsing the $35,000,000 war work fund
campaign which is to begin Sunday.
"Excellent as the Y. M. C. A. work
is and has been," said the statement,
"elsewhere, I believe the work it Is
now doing In the great cantonments
where our troops are being trained Is
"perhaps the greatest and the best it
has ever attempted.
"One has to see it to appreciate it.
We must give the men places of the
' right type to go to, places where
healthy amusements and decent sur
roundings, as well as reasonable recre
ation, can be secured. This is where
the Y. M. C. A. has secured, perhaps, its
best results. It has not only helped
suppress vice, but it has given the men
attractive places of assembly and
' wholesome amusement. '
"Every dollar given to the Y. M. C. A.
is money, given in a good cause. All
who aid it are helpers in a splendid
work."

What You Can Make
At Home
By Mrs. Portland.
TO help make things look more
Christmassy for your soldier lad
die, or some other soldier laddie whom
you want to have come and spend a
part of the Yuletlde with you, why not
matte a star or tsetniehem quilt or bed
spread? such a quilt being one in
which the Christmas colons, green and
red. predominate, with enough neutral
coloring to give a good background.
An eight-pointed star is easiest made.
For this cut one large square of red
4x4 inches and four squares in neutral
colors, 2x2 inches; also four red squares
2x2 inches. Cut the red squares in two
diagonally to make eight half squares.
Sew these eight half squares to the
large red square, two to each side with
their diagonal sides toward each other
and the middle of that side. When this
is done, you will have a regular eight-
potntedjstar of red. Sew the four neu
tral colored squares into the four cor
ners and cut half squares In the neu
tral color to fit the four empty spaces
remaining. When your block is com
pleted, it will be about eight Inches
square. Set fhe blocks together with
squares of green or oblong pieces 4x8
lncnes. Uhis will give you a quilt
In which green is the predominating
color for background with red stars
brought out by their edgings of neu
tral colors.
Or you can have but the two colore,
green and red in the quilt, by making
the corner squares and side half
squares of green Instead of some other
colors. Green and red are not usually
good colors in cotton, as they are apt
to fade and run and streak in washing,
so such a quilt as this would be bet
ter made in woolen or silk goods than
in cotton. The best pieces of discarded
red -waists, house dresses, listings, etc.,
may be used, while an old green dress
or wrap or. the cuttings left from such
garments -may afford enough pieces for
the green part.
If you want to add a little more
bright color to the quilt when you fas
ten the top and lining together you can
use silver or gold-colored cord or yarn
for -knotting, placing it at regular In
tervals In the stars or the green back
ground. Marian Millers
ANSWERS
THIS Is a message to the mothers of
soldier boys. Maybe some of the
wives, sisters, cousins and aunts will
read it. First of all I want to ask, "Do
you know that song about keeping the
hearth fires burning and about the sil
ver lining that surely must be shining
behind all the dark clouds?" If not,
learn it and sing It from the heart.
I saw a mother yesterday and was
shocked to see the change that had
taken place In her looks sines her boy
went abroad. She has aged rapidly.
Her face is all wrinkles and there is a
"drawn look" about her mouth that
her boy wouldn't like to see, Another
mother I was told sits at homo and
orys every evening, I noticed tha
daughters of both thesa women at tha
Orpheum last Tuesday night. They
should have had their mothers with
them. The mothers positively must not
ba left to weep. Tab them out to tha
V-.-. - -wirfei

show occasionally. A certain amount
of diversion IS necessary. It's perfectly
proper for mother to do Red Cross
work and to Hooverlse in the house
hold and to redouble her energies in
patriotic service of all kinds, but to
keep young and cheerful for the sake
of the boys at the front, she must keep
a joyous song In her heart. If she
doesn't keep brave and happy naturally
It is the duty of her relatives and
friends to see that she gets "away from
herself" occasionally.
Mothers, you must not let tears dim
the eyes nor lines of worry come. You
have been brave so far. Keep it up.
I know it was hard to give up the lad
you loved so well. I know how you
think of him, as he was when a baby;
how bright and chubby he was; how
soft and silken was the curl on the top
of his baby head; how you taught him
to talk and walk and how you nursed
him through all the childhood ailments
and how on the first day of his school
career you cried after you had sent
your baby away to school. And after
a while he grew up and you helped him
with his studies and mended his clothes
that always were torn. And when he
was grown and away at college then
the call came and he answered and you
were proud and glad for Oregon
mothers proved this right at the very
first. You have done so much; don't
get blue now. You have to keep bright
for your boy and for all the other boys
and for the cause of democracy.
So, to the sisters and cousins and
aunts and the daughters, too, I say
cheer up the mothers. Take them with
you to a party or the theater or enter
tainment. There are many who will
keep so busy they never will stop to
be sad. They have the system down
pat, but a certain few are going to get
lonely If we don't keep them cheered
up. Think it over.
McMINNVILLE, Or., Nov. 4. 1917. Dear
Marian Miller: I am a married man and
my wife la out of town. Is it all right for
me to call on some girls whom I knew be
fore I was married? They Invited me to
dinner and to spend the evening-. My wife
Is jealous of them. Yours truly. BEN C.
If you love your wife, don't start any
trouble. Dine with some married
couples or men friends, or go to the
home of the girls. If you wish, when
their parents are present and there are
other guests, but don't "pair off." I
don't think if you truly love your wife
you will do anything to worry her.
Keep your conscience clear and be
square. Not knowing whether or not
you have given the wife cause for jeal
ousy, I can't tell whether- or not her
attitude is foolish or justifiable.
...
LA GRANDE. Or., Nov. 8. Dear Marian
Miller: A young man I know Is going; away
to be a soldier. -He waa engaged to a girl
friend of mine, but asked me to write him.
Should 1 do 10? ELSIE W.
No reason why you should not write
frank, friendly letters with home town
news in. The boys want lots of news
about their friends and about all the
football teams, the schoolmates or of
fice folk. It isn't necessary to "cut
out" all the boys that are engaged. Of
course, silly, sentimental letters would
be in very bad taste. It seems to me
I have answered this question or ones
similar a dozen times.
