This is the word of leaders of the

Then there is also the fact that thou

Immediate cessation of war activi

grave problems connected with the
care of the men. Remove, the great
motive which actuates every man at
the front today and throw him into
dull inactivity, with nothing much to
do but await his chance to return to

Thursday, Nov. 7,1918
Sale to t$ held on the Wilkinson ranch, 8 miies south
east of La Grande. All property must be sold.
Pershing, who was in Oregon recently
in the interest of the United War Work
drive, which opens November 11, cau
tioned the American people against
the too-common tendency to become
apathetic under the Idea that peace
and the cessation of hostilities are at
hand.
"When heaven Is ready to negotiate
with hell," he declared, "then will
America be ready to make peace with
Germany." He told of the great work
being done In Europe by the Y. M. C.
A., Knights of Columbus, Salvation
Army and other agencies, and called
on Americans to respond liberally in
supporting the campaign about to open
for raising money with which to carry
on these activities.
