A request for co-operation In mak ing the 1316 Red Cross seal sale the most successful in the history of the Ktate. thereby enabling a still more ef fective campaign against tuberculosis to be carried forward, has been issued by the Oregon Association for the Pre vention of Tuberculosis. In addition an appeal has been made for contributions of waste paper to assist the same work and also that of the Visiting; Nurses' Association. As a feature of the campaign for the sale of seals it has been decided to ob-' verve "Tuberculosis" Sunday either December 3 or 10. This will give an opportunity for carrying the work for preventive effort against the disease and adequate care for the stricken into every pulpit and before every church audience in Oregon. The Oregon Association for the Pre vention of Tuberculosis has com menced a survey of the state, county by county. The surveys in Lane, Clat sop, Jackson, Josephine and Washing ton counties have been completed. Re sults will be announced in detail when the work is done. Facilities for Treatment Shown. The survey has already proved that by its means information never before pattered will be tabulated. The facili ties or lack of facilities for the care, treatment and prevention of tubercu losis in each county will be shown. Tho number of cases will be listed and segregated as to whether they are in cipient, moderately advanced or far advanced and also as to the number of cases reported before the survey and the number reported as a direct result of it. The survey will provide for each county a history of the disease in that county, indicating its increase or decrease, how many of the afflicted contracted the trouble within the county and the number that had the disease when they moved into the county. Then it will be shown how tuberoulosis is distributed as to cities, towns and rural communities. Cities and towns having city hospitals, clin ics and dispensaries, school inspection and open-air rooms will be designated. The county's ears of tuberculous pa tients in such institutions as Jails and poor farms will be discussed and whether the county has a. relief board and what assistance is granted in tu berculosis cases. Survey Work to Be Pressed. The survey is definite and thorough and its value to all health and public officials will be so great that the work has the hearty approval and full co operation of the Oregon State Board of Health. The proceeds of this year's sale of Red Cross seals will be used to carry on the survey and to maintain the preventive work organized by the as sociation. A plan to obtain donations of waste paper and old magazines as a means of swelling the fund for combating tu berculosis in the state has been evolved by the Visiting Nurse Association and the Oregon Association for the Preven tion of Tuberculosis. It is believed by the sale of such donations a substantial portion of the funds needed for the campaign against tuberculosis, and for nursing thoee wjo are unable to pay tor care, may De raised. Waste May Be Sold. Thousands of magazines, newspa pers, pasteboard boxes and waste paper are destroyed in Portland every week. There is a ready sale for this material lr collected in quantity," says a state ment from the two organizations.

SLUG 21 ft S3 E3 r3 THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR THE REIEF OF FRENCH WAR ORPHANS 1 (INCORPORATED 191) PRINCIPAL OFFICE: EQUITABLE BUILDING ' 120 Broadway (Rooms 1435-6) New York City 1 A 1 S peal for Orphan Children of French diers who have died in defense of France It is reported that the number of French orphans who will ultimately need aid will be in excess of 400,000, and that there are at the present time 200,000 in ACTUAL WANT. The stupendous and crushing burden of the war will not permit the French Government to pay more than 10 francs ($2) per month per orphan," and it is NECESSARY FOR PRIVATE CHARITY TO CONTRIBUTE AT LEAST 15 FRANCS ($3) PER MONTH ADDITIONAL FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF EACH CHILD. The AMERICAN SOCIETY has pledged itself to help several thousand orphans during the six months commencing November 1 , and it desires to increase the number as speedily as possible and to extend the period of assistance. It will be doubly helpful to those in need if they can be assured at the outset of this winter, which will be exceptionally hard upon France that fixed aid from Americans can be relied upon to prevent actual suffering among orphans. The needs of the WAR ORPHANS OF FRANCE peculiarly call for American sympathy and help, and it would be fitting if, at this period of NATIONAL THANKSGIVING, Americans contributed, each according to his means, to the FRENCH WAR ORPHANS FUND now being raised by the American Society and thereby joined in extending a helping hand to France in a way most helpful to her and most likely to touch the hearts of her people, who are so heroically and self-sacrificingly facing unparalleled calamities in a spirit of lofty patriotism which has thrilled the whole world. Americans should avail of this opportunity to relieve, so far as lies in their power, the orphaned and suffering children of French soldiers, and in that manner make some return for the SERVICES and SACRIFICES of the FRANCE of LAFAYETTE and ROCHAMBEAU at the time of the American Revolution WHEN AMERICA NEEDED HELP. EVERY contribution, however small, will tend to increase the number of orphans the American Society can undertake to succor, and will help discharge the debt America has long owed to the French people, and for which Wasmngton pledged our most unalterable gratitude.' The AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR THE RELIEF OF FRENCH WAR ORPHANS has been incorporated under the laws of the State of New York for the purpose of () liaising funds by voluntary contributions to be used for the aid and relief of needy French children whose fathers have lost their lives as the result of the present war in Europe, and (2) Systematizing and centralizing the collection of funds in the United States for that purpose and their effective distribution in France. Its membership is divided into () "Founders," who contribute $500 or r more per annum; (2) "Benefactors," who contribute $250 per annum; (3) "Sustaining Members," who contribute $100 per annum, and 4) "Contributing Members," who conttihute less than $100 per annum. The American Society undertakes, by means of its membership dues and a guaranty fund, to defray ALL the EXPENSES of management, . collection and distribution of contributions for FRENCH WAR ORPHANS in order that the ENTIRE AMOUNT contributed for the aid' and relief of these HELPLESS CHILDREN may be applied to their needs without any deduction for expenses of any kind, here or abroad. The AMERICAN SOCIETY solicits contributions to its WAR ORPHANS FUND in order to be able to pledge fixed monthly aid towards the support of as large a number of FRENCH WAR ORPHANS as possible at the rate of three dollars a month for each child. DONATIONS to the FRENCH WAR ORPHANS FUND should be sent by check or post office money orders to the order of THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR THE RELIEF OF FRENCH WAR ORPHANS enclosed with a subscription, in the form of the blank at the foot of this announcement, to 4THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR THE RELIEF OF FRENCH WAR ORPHANS, 120 Broadway, New York City," where all communications should be addressed.
