Newspaper Page Textzo THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, OCTOBER 14, 1917. RESULTS GOME FAST REED COLLEGE STUDENTS SNAPPED BY OREGONIAN PHOTOGRAPHER DURING THEIR ATHLETIC HOUR ON THE COLLEGE GRIDIRON. AMERICA THE LAND OF ZION Food Administrator Ayer's Or ganization in Action. WOMEN RESPOND NOBLY Speakers in Every Section Are Do ing Double Dnty by Urging Con servation of Foodstuffs and . Support of New Loan. The results that are beine: obtained by United States Pood Administrator Ayer and his assistants in the state wide educational campaign for food economy have already been compiled tnto a very promising programme. Could the averase observer be per mitted to inspect the mountain of bams and bacon, the srranaries full of wheat and the carloads of butter and other foodstuffs that will represent the Bgereeate savings of the thousands of housekeepers throughout the state of Oregon, his visions of allied success and the return of the day of peace would instantly become somewhat brighter. The realization that Mr. Ayer is try ing to make impressive to every user of butter, flour, meat and sugar is that the aggregation of slight savings is vastly important, and that whole armies in the field can be rationed on the foodstuffs that the combined erTort of all American housewives is sure to save. 1 Women Respond to Call. Recent promising occurrences In the food-saving campaign are related by Fred J. Lockley. "Maryland has recently organized a Tjegion of Life.' as contra distinguished from Russia's 'Legion of Death,' " he said yesterday. "The women of the United States are proving, along with the Russian women, that devotion and capacity for sacrifice are inherent in womanhood. "The women of America, if they are made to realize the vital need of keep ing our own troops and those of our allies in fighting trim, will show the greatest possible devotion in conserv ing our food supplies so that our wheat and meat, our sugar and butter, can be sent across the water. If every house wife in Oregon realized that the food conservation campaign does not involve going without food or stinting the fam ily, but simply contemplates using sub stitutes for our wheat and meat and sugar, there would be no question of the sucoess of Pledge Card week on October 21 to 28. What Herbert Hoover wants, the Americans to do is to eat all they need, but to eat wisely and with ort waste." A splendid state organization has been built up by Mr. Ayer. Reports are coming to him from all over the state of the enthusiasm with which the movement to conserve food sup Plies is being taken up. In a letter just received from T. J. Kcroggin, chair man for Union County, he says: I nion County Organized. "Union County is organized for Pledge Card week. Clarke Letter, for merly xt Portland and now editor of the La Grande Observer, is chairman of Our publicity committee. The rest of the committee is composed of every tiewspaper man in the county. We are going to give you the best we have." In a letter received by the same mail from A. C. Dixon, manager of the Booth-Kelly Lumber Company, of Eu gene, he says: "We have organized a publicity de partment in charge of Eric W. Allen, dean of the school of journalism of the 1 University of Oregon. We expect to have personal calls made on every edi tor in the county. We are going to be like the colored recruit who gave as a reason for not wanting to go into the cavalry when Joining the Army that when given the order to retreat he did not want to bothered with any horse. When we have orders to go ahead you will find us pressing forward without delay. You can figure the work in this county is as good as done." Speakers Serve Two Cnune. The work of the liberty loan speak ers and of the campaigners for food Conservation interlocks, and speakers of both campaigns are urging the pur chase of liberty bonds and the conserv ing of food supplies. Bruce Dennis In Kastern Oregon, O. M. Plummer in Southern Oregon, Mrs. Jennie Kemp along the Coast, J. A. Churchill. State iSupeiintendent of Public Instruction, and many others are carrying the gos . pel of food conservation over the state. In Roseburg the school children have put a new meaning to the I. W. W. With them it means "I Won't Waste." Secretaries of commercial clubs all over the state, as well as ministers, clubwomen, school teachers and post masters, are conducting an aggres sive campaign to line the housewives of Oregon up to sign the pledge to co operate with the food administration department to cook no more than is needed, to enforce the gospel of a clean Plate, to fry less and boil and bake more, to use home-grown vegetables, fruits and other supplies, to substitute fish and chicken for beef and pork, and corn and rye bread for wheat bread.

SCHOOL SPORTS VARIED In Addition of Games of All Kinds, Military Instruction Is Now Given, so as to Prepare Men In Case of Need. Every man in Reed Collepre this year will receive a course in intensive phys ical training. To meet the Nation's need for men physically fit. the college has provided a compulsory course of five hours a week devoted to organized games and exercises. With the aim of producing the all- round developed man. C. 3. Botsford, head of the department, has arranged varied programme of military drill. calisthenics and games. All students are carefully examined on entrance to the college and their mistakes in pos ture and breathing corrected by special exercises. But special emphasis is placed on the playing of games, for Mr. Botsford is a firm believer in the value of teaching men to "keep the eye on the ball and encourages football and basketball especially. Discipline Is Taught. The college has always succeeded In getting everyone voluntarily into the games, careful reports taken in 1914 and again in 1916 showing that in ex cess of 90 per cent of the men students took part weekly In football, basket ball and other sports. So the com pulsory ruling is not so much to get the men out onto the field as it is to vary their sports and teach them strict discipline. For a strict military discipline is maintained during the play hours. Drill in the school of the soldier is a .part of the daily exercise and with the ap proach of the rainy season will be ex tended to the more complex forma tions and movements. The men are or ganized In a company with corporals and sergeants and marched to and from the athletic field in military formation. Here after a few minutes of vigorous calisthenics they are divided into sec tions for football, track and soccer and set to work at once under the several student coaches. Intramural Gaines Arranprrd. Besides the hour each morning. Wednesday afternoon has been set aside entiredy for intramural games. Begin ning with the annual tug of war be tween freshmen and sophomores the athletic schedule for the first semester provides weekly games of football or soccer and cross-country running. The football games between dormitory and day students always have been hard fought contests and promise especially well for this year, as the day students wish to revenge last years defeat. The policy of the college is to have every man play in all the games for which he is at all adapted. While this does not allow in all cases of the skill in play which Is obtained by special ized training under professional coaches, it turns out a number of all round athletes who play Beveral games well. Boys Heap Benefits. Inside gymnasium work is not being neglected. The bars and tumbling mats have many enthusiastic devotees and are used in the regular physical educa tion courses to fit students as play ground instructors. To give these would-be physical instructors opportun ity tor practice the college gymnasium is open to extension classes on Monday Wednesday and Friday nights. Last year 4000 boys from Lents. Woodstock, Brooklyn, Sellwood and Kenllworth at tended these classes and were taught mat. and bar work and basketball. The work this Fall has already begun under the leadership of Rex Chamberlain and Rowan Whealdon. Big Hawk Brought Down. CENTRA LI A. Wash., Oct. 13. (Spe cial.)

SLACKERS ARE CASTIGATED Xumber of Men. Anxious to Kvade Service Declared Shocking and Shaking Up Due to Conscrip tion Regarded Beneficial. Slackers, as seen through the vision of the district exemption board, were exhaustively discussed yesterduy by Daa J. Malarkey, member of the board, at the luncheon of the Civic League, held at the Multnomah Hotel. Mr. Malarkey declared that it i3 the duty of every good citizen to present information to local and district boards in all cases when the statements made by an applicant for exemption are questionable. He criticised all who are derelict in this duty, and referred to the slacker with scorn. "The Nation needs hospital units, and ambulance units, and men at home to carry on the business of production," said Mr. Malarkey, "but what we need most of all is fighting men to win the war." Referring to men of military age who have taken advantage of oc cupational exemption, Mr. Malarkey declared that the Government might soon single them out with the com mand: "You get out here where you belong, and take a man's job!" Genuine slackers appearing before the exemption board may nearly al ways be discerned by their own state ments, said the speaker. They offer the plea of physical disability, prof fering such excuses as sleep-walking, nervous headaches, dizziness and bil ious condition. "And you'd be amazed at the number of parents, 45 and 50 years of age, who are being supported by their children during the last few months," he con tinued. "The unprecedented activity of the marriage license department is equally amazing." Yet what shocked members of ex emption boards more than anything else, said the speaker, was the "number of men, born and reared and given their sustenance In this country, who are more loyal to Germany than to the United States." "We are pretty keen at sending those fellows into the Army," he added, "where they'll make Americans of them. And those same soldiers will make Americans of "ma" and 'pa' when they return from the trenches." Mr. Malarkey cited many Instances which came before the district board during the recent draft, running the gamut of every conceivable excuse for evading military service. He declared that conscription would prove a verit able tonic for democracy. "The Federal conscription law Is a grand thing," he concluded, "if the war should end tomorrow, for what this country has learned of its o.wn defects and shortcomings would be well worth the price paid for It." Rebekahs Convene at White Salmon. WHITE SALMON. Wash., Oct. 13. (Special.) The annual Rebekah con vention of the district, comprised of Clarke.

Douglas, In charge of the six weeks' course of training for home service workers to be given beginning October 22 by the American Red Cross through its Port land Institute, attiliated with Reed Col lege.

Mothers of Oregon Prepare for Trouble! When a girl becomes a woman, when a woman becomes a mother, and when a woman passes through the changes of middle life, are the three periods of life when health and strength are most needed to withstand the pain and dis tress often caused by severe organic dis turbances. Many thousands along the Pacific Coast would testify just as do the following: Moitbok Oreoos. "I am certainly 1J to recommend Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.

TALMAGE, Of the Council of the Twelve. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, Salt Lake City, I tan. We believe In the literal a-atherlna of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Trlbest that Zlon will be built upon this (the American) continent, etc. Articles of KaitK o. lO. The Holy Bible makes frequent men tion of Zion and Jerusalem with the context showing that the terms are used interchangeably, if not as precise synonyms. This application of differ ent names to the same place is jus tified by the fact that within the walls of the Jerusalem of old was a hill spe cifically called Mount Zion, and, by contraction, Zion. But the two names appear in other Biblical passages with distinctive meaning, indicating different places and expressive of contrast instead of Identity. For example, consider the prophecy voiced by Isaiah relating to a time yet future: "Oh, Zlon, that brinK eet cood tldlnsrs, feet thee up Into the hlfch. mountain. Oh. JcruMalem, that brlnfrent Kood tldlnvri. lift up thy- -voice with KtrrnKth; lift It up, be not af raid i say unto the cities of Judah, Behold your God" (Isa. xl:9). The same prophet refers to a Zion of the last days in which the righteous shall be safeguarded: this to be in a mountainous land, with the "munitions of rocks" as a defense, and he par ticularly states that the land Is very far off (See Isa. xxxill :1 4-1 7 ). More definite than Bible prophecies, however, are the predictions relating to the latter-day Zion made by prophets who administered on the American con tinent many centuries prior to the re discovery of the New World by Co lumbus. In the Book of Mormon the names Zlon and New Jerusalem are used with allied meaning, and some times synonymously. Near the beginning of the sixth cen tury. before Christ's birth. Ether, a Jaredite prophet, compiled the history of his people from the time of their coming to America, soon after the dis persion from Babel. Even before they had crossed the ocean the sanctity of the western continent as a fore appointed land for people who would observe the laws of righteousness was made known to the Jaredites. In a summary of Ether's record, Moroni, the Nephite, who lived a thousand years after the extinction of the Jaredites, says of the latter: "And the Lord would not suffer that they should stop beyond the sea In the wilderness, but he would thit they should come forth even unto the land of promise, which was choice above all other la(nds. which the Lord God had preserved for a righteous people. And he had sworn in his wrath unto the brother of Jared that whoso should possess this land of promise from that time henceforth and ' forever should serve him. the true and only God. or they should be swept off when tho fulness of his wrath should come upon them. . . . For behold, this is a. land which is choice above all other lands: wherefore he that doth possess It shall serve God. or shall be swept off, for it is the everlasting decree of God. And It is not until the fulness of iniquity among the children of the land that they are swept off" (.Book of Mormon, Ether ii:7-10). The inspired admonition of these an cient prophets to the inhabitants of America today, that they observe and uphold the principles of righteousness, which embody just government and true liberty under equitable laws, may profitably be taken to heart by people of all conditions and degrees. Ether clearly distinguished the Jeru salem of Judea, which is to be rebuilt, from the New Jerusalem that is to be established in America as one of the significant signs of the last days. In Moroni's synopsis we read: "Behold, Ether saw the days of Christ, and he spake concerning a New Jerusalem upon this land. And he spake also concerning the house of Israel, and the Jerusalem from whence Lehi should come. After it should be destroyed it should be built up again a holy city unto the Lorci, whercforo it could not be a New Jerusalem, for it had been in a time of old, but it should be built up again and become a holy city of the Lord, and it should be built unto the house of Israel. And that a New Jerusalem should be built up upon this land, unto the remnant of the seed of Joseph" (Book of Mormon, Ether xiii:4-6). America is the Land of Zion. and as the people of this continent render al legiance to the God of Israel, who is verily the God of all mankind, the land shall be sacred to liberty as the in heritance of the house of Israel. In it the Gentiles shall be potent and shall be numbered with Israel accord ing to their deserts. To the Nephites the Lord gave this far-reaching and blessed promise: "But behold, this land, saith God, shall be a land of thine inheritance, and the Gentiles shall be blessed upon the land. And this land shall be a land of liberty unto the Gentiles, and there shall be no kings upon the land who shall raise up unto the Gentiles. And I will fortify this land against all other nations: and he that fighteth against Zion shall perish, saith God; for he that raiseth up a king against me shall perish, for I. the Lord, the King of Heaven, will be their King, and I will be a light unto them forever that hear my words" (Book of Mormon, il Nephi x:10-14). Zion Is to be established on this con tinent, and, as the word of modern rev elation avers, in the western part of the United States (see Doctrine and Covenants xlv:64-71; lvil:l-5). The time of the blessed consummation is conditioned by the fitness of the people. Hither shall come the hosts of scat tered Israel and the Lost Tribes from their long and dark obscurity. Here shall yet be built the city of the Lord, Zion, the New Jerusalem, which in time shall be made one with the "Holy City," which the Revelator saw "coming down from God, out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband" (Rev. xxi:2). For the Book of Mormon. Doctrine and Covenants, Articles of Faith and other literature of the Church of Jesu Christ of Latter-Day Saints apply to any of the missions of the church, among which are: Northwestern States Mission, S10 East Madison street, Port land, Or., and Bureau of Information, Salt Lake City, Utah.
