life Itself in order that oar flag may
be victorious with those of our allies.

be tne privilege of all of us to serve
In the battle line, but it is the duty
of U of ns to serve the cause at
home by whatever. sacrifice we can
make. The- call today is for sacri
fice, unselfish sacrifice of personal
ambition or personal aggrandix-
ment. , Each of us should strive to
attain some place In which we can
be of the greatest service to the
nation. '
'The farmers of the Willamette
alley, the cattle, shey and borse
nien of central, eastern and south
ern: Oregon, and the lumbermen f
the coast, together with their fifty
or sftty thousand workers In this
state today are a unit, I am glad to

rifice which will enable our boys to
win In the front line trenches.'
