Dear Mr. Van Vactor:
Your campaign workers braced
the weather and went from
house to house and farm to fa.m,
canvassing for Red Cross mem
berships. There was no hard-
shins thev were not willing to
undergo. The distressing short
age of buttons and other sup
plies embarrassed them, but
they went ahead with lofty
courage. They were animated
by love of our country, affection
for our soldier boys and a desire
to be of actual service in reliev
ing the suffering caused by
frightful war; also they were de
termined Morrow county should
do its full share in the enroll
ment of members in response to
the appeal of President Wilson
askimr every man and woman
to join the Red Cross.
The results in Morrow county
speak for themselves. To your
heroic workers belongs the cred
it. It was individual work like
this all over our state that won
again for Oregon the proud dis
tinction of being among the fore
most states of our Union in pa
triotic achievment.
No mere letter of thanks can

Anyone naving a sewing
machine they can spare would
confer a great favor on the Red
Cross workers by leaving it for
use in the sewing rooms.
The officers and members of
the Red Cross take this means
of publicly thanking Mr. Henry
Schwartz, proprietor of the
People's Cash Market, for the
splendid donation of chickens
(or the lunch served New Year's
eve ot the pavilion. Such gen
erous actions are highly ap
preciated and do their part in
helping to win the war.
Workers have never been
needed at the work rooms so bad

to be done to meet the demands
being made upon the Morrow

At the regular meeting of the
County Court this week it was
decided to be for the best inter
ests of the county that a county
agriculturist should be appointed
and an appropriation of $1500
was made to assist in meeting
the expense of the new office.
W. L. Kadderly of the O. A.
, assistant county agent leader,
was present and outlined the
plan which is being urged on all
the counties in the United States
bv the federal government as a
war measure.
In addition to the $1500 ap
propriated by the county, an
equal amount will be supplied by
the state besides $1000 which
will be put up by the federal
government. The appointment
will be made by the county
agent leader of the O. A- C, and
will be an expert agriculturist
whose duty it will be to co oper
ate with the farmes and stock
men and with the county court
in producing a maximum output
of products from the farmrs and
ranches so much needed by this
government and its allies in the
work of winning the war.
