We take tills means of thank ing all who have contributed to this cause. Dorman D. Edwards, pastor Be No Slacker; But Be a Backer (By John W. Kelly) Upon a time there was a farmer whose sheep were threatened by coy otes, so he decided to protect them at night with a high, tight fence. All day he labored and when evening ap proached it was almost, but not quite, completed. The farmer was fagged, twilight was approaching and Instead of nail ing up the remaining boards he drove In the sheep and decided to take a chance. In the morning he discovered the ravages caused In the flock by the enemy marauders; the fence he had built for protection was no protection, because when twilight came he failed to finish It. Don't permit your patriotism to suc cumb to the twilight zone! In the twilight there is a slacking of industry, a tendency to take things Indifferently to loaf. Having performed a good day's work, twilight finds a man tired of the heat and the burdens, ready to rest and congratulate himself on his accomplishments. The Third Liberty Loan Is In he twilight zone of war financing. , Twice have the people of Oregon labored lndefatigably and accomplish ed a great work In over-subscribing the state's allotment. Now comes the real test now is to disclose whether they still have the vigor and patriotic strength hereto fore displayed. It remains to be seen whether they ;wlU consider their duty performed land are content to slacken, to take Ithings indifferently, to loaf on the job 'of patriotism. j After a day In the fields It requires spunk and pluck to tackle additional work in the twilight. The man who 'determines to press the labor a little further to make a real finish to the day's stunt, is doing something for himself. And so Is it with those who have helped in the previous bond flo tations. There Is a bit more to do be 'fore turning In; a little more exertion and patience and drain on the re sources. But If patriotism is not lulled into Indifference of the twilight, the fence of protection will be completed. Take no ciiances. Every bond is a board in the fence to keep out the Hun coyotes. Report, but don't repeat. Help in Germany's defeat.

The fact that Oregon in the First and, Second Liberty Loans shows a percentage of only 8.77 per cent of the population subscribing to Liberty Loans, which was less than the aver age for the United States, and com pares unfavorably with other states, makes it necessary for at least 15 per cent of the population to subscribe to the Third Liberty Loan, in order to bring Oregon into the same standing as her sister states. Oregon's 8.77 per cent of Liberty Loan subscribers Is Insignificant be side New York's 16.64 per cent, Chi cago's 12.22 per cent and Minneapolis' 12.04 per cent. Canada's recent "Victory Loan" campaign, translated into the United States method of accounting, shows a percentage of 14.3 of the population subscribing for bonds. Headquarters of the Third Liberty Loan of the Twelfth Federal Reserve District are in receipt of letters, call ing attention to the fact that many banks have subscribed to previous loans so liberally that their capacity is somewhat curtailed, and It will be necessary for 15 per cent of the in habitants of a given community to subscribe to the loan in order to ful fill the desired quota. With the well diffused prosperity on the Pacific Coast, it is felt that this should not be difficult, and from the country dis tricts there should be a higher per centage of subscriptions than from the large, metropolitan centers where there is apt to be a greater proportion of the population living in comparative poverty. WE MUST OVER SUBSCRIBE Amount of Loan Estimated for Oregon Is the Minimum. "Rarln' to go" truly describes the frame of mind of Ibe Third Liberty Loan organization of the state on the eve of the big drive. The loan of three billion which the Secretary of the Treasury has just called for from the Nation is the mini mum amount The services given for the Knight Templars in the Presbyterian church Sunday afternoon were largely at tended by the members of that order which hurl their tough TIRES Broadway at Burnside, Phones, Broadway 850, A-6505. "Quotas for different districts will) be announced within a few days," says State Chairman Cdoklngham.i The quota of the state is $18,495,000.1 Portland will be alloted approximately! half the amount or $9,000,000. While) n is apparent that a $3,000,000,0001 loan ran be absorbed more readily by! the people of the United States thanj If the loan had been placed at twlcei that sum, nevertheless I wish particu-i larly to Impress upon our small armyi of volunteer workers and upon every; citizen of Oregon that it will be noi puny task to raise $18,000,000." , The Republic's Battle Hymn. j Harry Van Dyke, former American: minister to the Netherlands, and now! a chaplain in the United States serv-i ice, has composed an additional stan za for the "Battle Hymn of the Re public." Here it is: "We have passed the cry of anguish from the victims of the Hun "And we know our country's peril ifj the war lords will Is done "We will fight for world-wide freedom1 till the victory Is won; j "For God Is marching on." Stanfield, Or. (To the Editor.)! read with a thrill Mr. Van Dyke's ad ditional stanza to "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," and, with the vision of my only son, just passed 20, as he, left us a few months ago, eager to go over and do his hit to help avenge the wrongs of Belgium and France, I am' constrained to add two more stanzas as my interpretation of America's an swer to the cry of anguish. We have pledged our lives and for-' tunes I To help freedom's cause advance, Sent the flower of our young manhood To the shell-torn fields of France. We wilj overcome oppression, All must have an equal chance. j For God Is marching on. i i True and loyal hearts are beating. 1 We are soldiers every one, I And we're satan's host defeating When we overthrow the Hun. Out from Belgium they're retreating When the victory we've won. For God is marching on. H. E. ALLEN. and many others. An inspiring ser mon was delivered by Rev,. H. A.
