The American, no matter where placed nor how trying 'the circumstance! is noted for his courage, but there Is a reason for the astonishing fighting qualities displayed by our boys over there. That "reason" is the fact that the 'boys facing the Germans know that there is a nation one hundred mil' lion strong backing them up in their fight to crush Prussian mili tarism. The boys over there know that the American Red Cross, and other or ganizations in this country, are Pok ing after their interests. And now another big campaign is on to pro ride funds to care for the moral. physical and spiritual needs of our boys who may this winter be wallow ing about In the water-soak eil trenches, faithfully doing their duty in keeping back the hordes of the kaiaer. The organizations which will participate in this campaign to , raise $170,500,000 for the American soldiers, are: The Y. M. C. A., the Y. V. C. A., the War Camp Commun ity Service, the American Library Association, the Knights of Colum bus, the Salvation Army and the Jewish Welfare Board. The Ameri can Red Cross will not participate in the drive. These organizations will link the American soldier with his home, keep his morale firm and dispel gloom around his camp on the battle front. To support these organizations in the coming campaign is to support your boy or your neighbor's boy with comforts and conveniences this winter. The amount to be raised Is not large, considering that the Unit ed States is a powerful nation of one hundred million people. One dollar and seventy cents for each inhabi tant will net the amount, and every cent is to be spent on the boys In the service. There Is a spirit of co operation among these organizations and the friends of each must work earnestly for the success of the whole drive. Don't fail to contribute to the fund. HOP Kit KM!

Ql'ALITY FIRST , position of the chief magistracy ol the state he lows and knows so well, has had a sympathetic and practical knowledge ot the problems ot the producers and has combined with that a realization that honest busi ness enterprise must not be handi capped by theoretical restrictions, he has worked for state and congres sional legislation that would help the development of the natural resources of the state, and above all he has been tower ot strength for patriot ism. Oregon Voter. Senator iLodge, republican leader in the senate, says: "There is no Oerman government In existence with which I would dis cuss anything. I deplore at this stage, when we are advancing steadily to a complete victory, any discussion or exchange ot notes with the German government "The only thing now is to demand unconditional surrender. I would leave that to Marshall Focb and the generals of the armies." "If it (the United States govern ment) must deal with the military masters and the monarchical auto crats of Germany now, or If it is likely to have to deal with them la ter In regard to the international ob ligations of the German empire. It must demand not peace negotiations, but surrender." President Wilson. There is a law in Oregon, prohib iting the sale of wormy Or diseased apples, but the trouble is, the law Is not prohibiting such sales. Like the man who said he could not be put In jail on a certain charge, neverthe less, he made his statement while looking through the bars. Here Is President Wilson's polite way of calling the kaiser a liar: "The nations of the world do not and can not trust those' who have been mas ters of the German policy." Teddy would have said "you're a liar," and let It go at that. The water is so chilly these days that it takes a hungry man or a gen uine sport to wade in up to his cars and pull out a fighting steelhen.1. Foch will now proceed to send a few notes via the machine gun route. They're the kind the Germans understand. Over on the western front the ca airy is proving Its worth, once th?

MISUNDERSTANDING CLEARED UP A misunderstanding relative to the canteen work of the Y. M. C. A. has been cleared up by the War Depart ment, whic h IsHiied the following: "Mutter of prices asked by Youd Men's Christian Association (or its articles sold In canteens overseas al ready luvt'stiKuted by war department unil comlitiou Is being remedied. The Young Men's Christian Association was originally asked by General Pershing to run the canteens for the army on a cost basis. In order to do this It had to reckon In price fixing such overhead charges as transporta tion charges and marine Insurance so that prices were much higher than lu this country. "The Young Men's Christian Asso ciation made no profits, but lost thou sands of dollars. Arrangements now made will enable them to obtain sup plies from sources that will reduce overhead charges and keep prices down." Prisoners of Duty. The Turkish government Is shortly to effect an exchange of 1,000 British prisoners, but there will be still mnny left over there, and miturnlly they will need doctors. Under the Berne iiur ce ment of December last It Is arranged thnt one British doctor nnd five of the medical personnel of the ranks should be detnlned for every 1,000 prisoners. No Inspection of prison camps tinder the Berne agreement has yet been mnde, but It Is very probable thnt conditions there may necessitate rore doctors being detnlned. There are some! things fn warfare which are harder than actual fighting, and to stay behind In a prison enmp tending wounded nnd noNtnlglc men when others Joyfully set snil for home or octlve service requires nil the unsel fish devotion to duty with which doc tors ore credited by the lnlty, ; j j i Kissing is said to be a sure way to spread the "flu," but where is the American who won't take a chance? Governor Withycombe has served Oregon faithfully, courageously, and ably. He has fostered Industry and agriculture, has appointed end sus tained an honest and progressive highway administration, has refrain ed from chasing rainbows or recom mending freak legislation, has been sound in his views on fundamental matters of! public policy, has had a high conception of the dignity of the I FRUITDALE . c Mr. and Mrs. C.

World news is all right, but OUR BOYS want NEWS OF THIS TOWN. They want the home newspaper. Publishers are prevented from sending their papers free to anyone, even boys in the service. Consequently a national movement has been started by Col. William Boycc Thompson of New York, who is r.ctin as President of the Home Paper Service of America to give the boys what they are ealling for. Every community is joining the movement Let us see that our boya ar not forgotten. Send to the publisher of this newspaper whatever amount of money you can 6 cents or $50.00. We will publish a list each week of those contributing, and the amounts contributed. Every cent received will be used to send this paper to our boys at the front. If at the end of the war, there is any surplus, It will be turned over to the local Red Cross Committee. ' There is no profit in this to the publisher even in normal times, subscriptions are not Bold at a profit. With war prices prevailing, and the high rate of postage on papers sent to France, -our cost will scarcely be covered by our full subscription price.
