the too-common tendency to become
apathetic under the idea that peace

Respectability is a matter of conduct,

Is the respectable element aware
that bootlegging can not be carried

The Y. M. C. A. has more than 2000
huts in the great battle zone and is
ministering to the boys overseas. In

partment, has recently jolneu In the
task of Instructing selectivea even be

War work of the Y. W. C. A. is thus
outlined by Mrs William MacMaster,
State chairman;
“Already we have in this country
2,000.000 women doing actual war
work, while another 2.000,000 have re
leased men for service by undertaking
their work. To the Y. W. C. A., 'the
best big sister in the world,' has been
committed by the government and mill
tary authorities the serious respon

the material needs of this army of
girls. Already 105 hostess houses have
been opened. War Service Clubs organ
ised, the Patriotic League created,
nurses sen’ where needed and now we
are asked to furnish emergency houx
tng for thousands of girl war workers.”
John W. Kelley, associate drive di
rector, says of the Knights of
Columbus:
"Knights of Columbus halls are in
operation In all cantonments, training
camps and naval stations In the United
States and the balls are also establish
ed with the American Expeditionary
Forces in France, Italy. Russia and
England.
The motto is 'Everybody
Welcome', service being given irrespec
tive of race, creed, or rank. Millions
of cigarettes, pipes, bouillon cubes, gum
packages and tons of chocolate have
been given free to the soldiers over-

ment, boxing gloves, etc. In the war
zone the troops are followed with
motor trucks which are virtually
traveling huts, fully stocked with ath
letic goods, stationery, cigarettes, and
the like.”
Needs and activities uf the Jewish
Welfare Board, explained by Ben Sell
ing, are:
"In one year the number of our field
representatives has grown from 10 to
213. Now we are faced with the de
mand for 400 additional workers In
this country and 100 overseas
The
money going into our fund pays nec

Bibles and prayerbooks by the thou

cational and recreational activities for
the fighters, both here and abroad."
“War Camp Community Service,"
explains Emery Olmstead, state chair
man, "developed from the commission
created by the War and Navy Depart
ments. first known as the Fosdlck Com
mission. The community Is Its partic
ular field and thousands of workers
are assisting the towns in caring for
visiting soldier* and sailors, providing
wholesome amusement and clean rec
rest ion and surrounding the camps
with hospitality." ,
Functions of the American Library
Association, say* William L. Brewster,
state chairman, are “to provide books
and reading matter to the soldier* and
sailors through cooperating agencies
and directly.” Thirty library build
ings have been provided at canton
ments; 3,760.600 donated books dis
tributed; 1,000,000 books and tons of
magazines sent abroad, and 600,000
needed military technical books bought

These are some things the Salvation

"On Hoss of communication our huts

"with an Increasing volume of til»-« of
heavy calves, both male ar. 1 i»m« --,
and with already a w -'da shori-i- i
of beef, the outlook for future supplies
is not as rosy as one mipht wish.
"It has been charged in sow,»
quarters that the price of milk s. i

"Taking onlv the re'atl p’-’ee ** a
basis—that which most vitally al': eta
the consumer—the price of milk today
in Portland Is 16c per quart.
"Even with normal prices m'lk is
generally sold retail at 10 cents a
quart here, therefore the advance is
not nearly as marked as in many
other lines of foodstuffs.
"The dairyman today is paying mors
than double the wages of normal y<-a s
for his hired help. He is paying murs
thau double for his requirements of
hay and a very considerable advance
over the normal for his brau and
shorts.
"The cost of milk cans and other
dairy utentlls la practically double th«
normal The cost of bottles has soar« d
to Buch heights as to make one dizzy
to think of it. The coat of producing
milk today to therefore more than
double that of normal periods eten
without aunsidering the tact that this
has been a very abnormal season ami
the production of milk and cream per
cow is far below the normal.
"Laws enacted during the last few
years force the dairyman to add to h -i
costs as.a matter of cleanliness The
public is no longer willing to toleraie
the quality of milk generally marketed
a few years ago. All of this costs
money and ths dairyman has been
paying it while the full charges have
not been passed back to the consumer.
"It has oftimes been said that a men
very seldom quits a business where
liberal profits are available The fact
tliat so many dairymen ar« quittii it
that they ar« not making adetj is
that they ar« not making adequate
profits—if any at all.
"The killing of dairy calves during
the present season has broken all
records simply because the country
producer could not afford to feed them
to maturity.
Suggestion has been
made tn som« quarters that the kill
ing of femal« calves be prohibited by
law This would indeed solve the prob
lem providing some means war« found
to feed and keep tho animals
"Dairy experts have for years
preached the gospel of ‘getting rid of
the star boarder'—th« cow that does
not pay her expense. Thst la the
situation just now. Few are paying
their board and ther« is no improve
ment of th« situation la prospect
"Similar conditions may be spoken
of in regard to the future of the beef
supply Owing to the shortage and ex
treme price of feed more light weight
and unfinished cattle have beej
marketed in the stockyards of the
country during the last two seasona
than ever before known The country
cannot afford to feed its cattle even at
the present price of beef and the
journey to market la therefore a neces
sity. In fact the government has te-
cently requested that the public pur
chase beef from Tight weight animals
because the stock must be marketed
Thia means that many thousands of
animals that are today coming to
market weighing mound too to 1 o< l
pounds, would have showed a weight
of at least a third more if allowed to
fatten properly.
This means an
enormous loss In the meat supply t«.‘

can 111 afford to contemplate."
"Why not have milkmaids now a
days?" someone asks. There is a cry
that the labor conditions are in a bad
way as far as the dairies are concern
