They will need some help in some of
the districts. The patriotic women
have promised to help. Some cf the
men will be asked to give a little time
and the use of a horse and buggy or
an automobile. Let us see that Mor
row county makes a record in this
matter. Coos county has started out
to be the banner county. Let us Bhow
them a merry race. Let every mat.
and every woman say, "I will help
these young patriots. I will not let
the pupils of my school think I am a
slacker. I am ready to help my coun
try by helping in this work." Call
up your teacher and ask her if you
can help in any way. It she can't tell
you of anything to do, call up some
member of the executive committee.
And, all the time, early and late,
boost for Hoover, boost for America,
boost for liberty, boost for humanity.

The week Oct. 21-28 has been des
ignated as the week for the registra
tion of the households of the country
in the food conservation campaign.
Later it was thought best to defer the
registration one week, but owing to
the fact that the registration is to be
made largely through the schools, it
s advisable to go ahead with the cam
paign next week, since the schools of
this county are closed a part of this
week on account of the institute.
The American people are asked to
eliminate waste and to substitute
other foods in order to save wheat,
meat, sugar and dairy products.
They are not asked to starve them
selves, or even to eat less, but they
are asked to help by practicing the
"gospel of the clean plate" and by
eating more corn and rye instead of
so much wheat and by eating more
fish, poultry, and eggs, andless meat.
Mothers and fathers have parted
with their boys, sisters have given up
their brothers,- wives have said good
by to husbands, and sweethearts have
seen their lovers depart for the from.
No one who has not been included
among these can fully realize the sac
rifice they have made. And, the boys
themselvesf think what they are do
ing. They are going out to give up
their lives, if need be, that we may
not be compelled to yield to the rule
of a foreign autocracy. Is that any
small matter? And should we hesi
tate to make some sacrifice that these
brave boys and their comrades in
arms may have something to eat
while they are fighting our battles!
Then let us do our part. Let us sign
up with Mr. Hoover to do the best we
can to eliminate waste and to con
serve the staple foods. Let us be
ready to do a little work to get every
home signed up on the pledgo cards
and to get those patriotic membership
window cards placed in every home.
We are asked to enlist in the service
of the United States, and if our coun
try Is worth anything to us, let us en
list and try to enlist every man, wo
man, boy and girl.
Under the direction of State Super
intendent Churchill, the schools will
undertake to enlist the people by se
curing the signatures to the pledge
cards. They will distribute the home
cards and also the membership cards 'of $1,700.
