Join the Red Cross The Helvetia German Emanuel Sunday school has the distinction of contributing the first funds tow ard the Red Cross mem­ bership roll-call. Who will be the next? T here is no compulsion about joining the Red Cross. Its m em bership is voluntary, and the comm ittee appreciates the spirit shown by this Sunday school. President Roosevelt says: “ W hen our people in any section of the country are faced with the perils and suffering which follow so sw ift­ ly in the wake of disaster, they look with one record to the Am erican Red Cross for instant and efficient relief. They have nev­ er looked in vain.” This has been proven true in our own county during disastrous fires in the last few years. The ch ap ter has an efficient disaster committee which is alw ays “ looking for trouble,” and al­ ways first on the spot when trouble comes. Join the Red Cross and help hum anity. Co-operation Appreciated A fine spirit of co-operation is shown betw een the business firm s of the town and the Business and Professional Wom­ en's club as attested by the “ Know Your Hillsboro M erchants” feature of the Ja m ­ boree Tuesday night. This feature was sta rte d last year for the purpose of edu­ cating the women of the town to buy a t home or buy through home dealers, and although it was impossible during the past week to contact all retail dealers in the tim e allotted, 51 business people respond­ ed. The club is very grateful to the busi­ ness firm s for th eir splendid co-operation. Our Veterans Veterans in Lane county have organized a Mar­ tin for Governor club. Some Dunne partisans and newspapers assail General Martin, saying he is a militarv man. But when did it become a fault to fight for good old U. S. A.? Was it wrong for George Washington to be a "military man?" Did Andrew Jackson do wrong in being commander-in-chief and winning an overwhelming victory over the British at New Orleans? Was It sinful and degrading for Abraham Lincoln to be a commander of troops in the Indian wars? Was It wrong for these and other military men to become presidents of the United States? These criticisms of General Martin for having served in the army are an insult to every veteran. They are example of Ingratitude by the critics to­ ward the men who sacrificed and suffered on No Man's Land or on the inarch. Time cannot compensate, nor words adequately acknowledge, the service of our veterans. Together with General Martin, they fought for humanity and country in the Philippines, and side by side they battled for humanity, democracy and country in Prance and Flanders. Theirs Is the fellowship and a fraternity that years cannot dim nor memory ex­ tinguish. By every consideration of mutual sacrifice, by every obligation of association, every veteran ought to be an ardent supporter of the man who. like them, knows the cots where soldiers lie and the chores that soldiers d o —Oregon Journal.

It puts the candidates under too much of a strain and too great an expense. O re­ gon voters would probably prefer to have th eir political doses over a shorter period of time, too. National junior cham ber of commerce is undertaking an excellent work in its program to com bat comrpunism in this country. This organization can very well work along with the American Legion and o th er patriotic organizations against the red menace. School districts in the county show a decrease in debt.
