E. Miller, OWNER. AUCTIONEER. Publicity for the second Liberty Loan campaign in Oregon seems to have been the maximum conceivable, especially considering the delay in getting it started. The press of Ore gon, both city and country, almost without exception, devoted columns and pages of space to the Liberty Loan. Several newspapers devoted as high os four pages in one issue to Liberty Loan matter prepared by Mr. Orton Goodwin, publicity manager. To the Oregon press is due more than to any other one factor the suc cess obtained by the Liberty Loan campaign in Oregon. The volume of press clippings is beyond anything the writer ever beheld. So far as headquarters is concerned the credit for actual publicity work is due to Mr. Orton E. Goodwin. This committee was fortunate in being able to secure his services. Your Vice Chairman has had a country J I wide experience in handling publicity work but never in an nis expensive has he seen anyone with the burning genius for conceiving and executing resultful newspaper publicity as dis played by Mr. Goodwin .in this cam paign. He wore himself to the point of exhaustion by night work some times being at his typewriter until three o'clock in the morning and again at eight ready for another ar duous day and night. He was bur dened with many details which should and could have been executed by clerical help, were such available. During the last two weeks of the campaign Mr. Goodwin had sole charge of the publicity, as the Vice Chairman of your committee found it necessary to abandon practically all publicity activities and devote his en tire time to the statistical compila tion of country returns and tele graphic hammering of the different counties and communities. This your Vice Chairman did In the name of the Publicity Committee, although it was properly the work of the Distribution Committee. The field was being en tirely neglected so without authority or permission your Vice Chairman concentrated his energies along these lines. The result of this work done in the name of the Publicity Com mittee can be estimated at from three Three spring colts. One S-inch wagon. One Scinch wagon. One malleable iron farm truck. One hay wagon. One 3-bottom New Deal plow, 10-inch. One 3-bottom Oliver plow, 12-inch. One 2-bottom New Deal plow, 10-inch. One 4-section steel harrow. One 12-foot weeder.

HOOVER'S GON' TO GET YOU. The darned old Hoover pledge has come to our house to stay; To frown our breakfast bacon down, and take our steak away; It cans our morning waffles, and our sausage, too, it ssems, And dilates on the Bucculence of corn, and spuds, and beans. So skimp the sugar In your cake, and leave the butter out, Or Hoover's goin' to get you if you Don't Watch Out! Oh, gone now are the good old days of hot cakes thickly spread; And meatless, wheatless, hopeless days are reigning in their stead; And gone the days of fat rib roasts, and two-inch T-bone steaks, And doughnuts plump and golden brown, the kind that mother makes. And when it comes to pie and cake, just learn to cut it out, Or Hoover's goin' to get you if you Don't Watch Out! So spread your buckwheats sparingly, and peal your taters thin; And tighten up your belt a notch and don't forget to grin. And if, sometimes, your whole soul yearns for shortcake high and wide, And biscuits drenched with honey, and chicken, butter fried, Remember then that Kaiser Bill is short on sauerkraut, And Hoover's goin' to get him if we'll All Help Out!
