EFRAI
OF U. S. TROOPS?
"Suppose France should collapse
as a result or the lack of food, due
to the unwillingness or neglect of
America to make the necessary sac
rifice to supply her soldiers and citi
zens, what would become of the rap
Idly growing American army at the
French front?"
This is one of the disquieting pos
sibilities of the food shortage men
tioned by Dr. W. J. Kerr, president of
the Oregon Agricultural college, In
his series of talks on food and the
war, which be is giving In Oregon as
a representative of the United States
government.
--Dr. Kerr will speak in Medford,
Page thoator, Sunday morning, May
26, at 11:09 o'clock. This Is a spe
cial union service and is in honor of
the G. A. ri. Dr. Kerr will speak in
Ashland, Chautauqua auditorium, on
Sunday afternoon at 3:00 o'clock. A
special band concert has been ar
ranged for the occasion, the concert
beginning at 2:30 o'clock. These
meetings are under the auspices of
the Red Cross campaign committee,
county council of defonse, county
food administration, county agri
cultural council, Ministerial associa
tion, Commercial club, and other pa
triotic organizations. These organi
zations urge a largo attendance, and
expect all who are Interested in win
ning the war and desirous of obtain
ing more definite Information as to
what each can do to help win, to at
tend this meeting.
How America, and especially Ore
gon, can best respond to the demands
for increased food production, Insur
ing the food supplies essential to the
successful prosecution of the "war','
will be dealt with In the most prac
tical way by Dr. Kerr, who has just
returned from Washington, where he
went over the entire question ot In
creased food produotiju and conser
vation .with the officials of the de
partment of agriculture and fcdcial
food administrator.
The wheat shortage In tb.j rilled
countries is 62 4 million brshels
Their only source of supply is the
United States wh'ch has a normal
consumption of approximately the
amount produced. French rations
have been cut down one-half. The
effects of the sliortnge are disclosed
In a statement from the French com
missioner, Andrew Tardleu:
"France has reached the limit of
sacrifice and suffering behind tho
lines. Unless America, by similar
sacrifices, comes to her immediate
aid, when she does arrive with her
full military strength she may find
the conditions upon which victory de
pends entirely changed. Unless ev
ery ftvrmer, shopkeeper, hotel man
every citizen, co-operates with the
profits, England and Italy, as well
as France, will face a slate of depic
tion that will undermine the morale
of tho people." ,
.Many working people of England
aro on a dlot of only one-third nor
mal. And England is combing tho
country for the last 600,(1(10 effect
ives. America should uphold and
sustain them now, for if England
falls France and Italy are gono, and
AmcrUa must bear the burden alone.
It is so much easior to help now, and
It is felt that if only the truth wcru
known loyal American citizens would
be willing to make all necessary sac
rlfces to increase tho food supply by
growing more food materials, saving
more, and relinquish profits.
Dr. Kerr is directly representing
the government and Is delivering the
message of the nation to Its loyal citi
zens. All who have tho welfare of
their country at heart are asked to
come out to the meetings and help
create a sentiment for saving for vic
tory in this war wherein tho liberty
of' mankind th at stake. '
I. W. W. CANCELLED
l'OKTXAXIl, May 21'. Citizenship
)mpers previously granted d,r
Swclnin, an I. W. W. organizer, were
revoked by Judfre ('. K. Woherton in
tile federal court today, on the
ground thai Nwelu'in had procured cit
izenship through fraud and deceit.
Swelgin was taken t Seattle at the
close of the hpnrinir, where he will be
interned as an alien enemy.
' In reiiderinir bis dceisimi, Jiulu'e

ciety, its adherents are anti-patriotic."
Of Swrluin, he said: .
"He made n vow which vein not in
his heart, lie is n disbeliever and is
opposed to organized government,''
"VYu.sn.'t it splendid?" That was
the question heard on all sides as a
laijie ami tliornuhlv delighted au
dience left the Hialto theater Tues
day night alter enjoyin;,' a concert
consisting of Indian 'music given by
the students of St. .Mary's academy.
It was something new and entirely
different in the line of music and op
ened for the listeners Ihe gate to the
soul of the American Indian, and
slinwcd Unit therein there lie rare hid
den jewels of culture and art, and
yet not largely known or appreciated
by the great majority of American
people.
Although beautifully harmonized,
the value of the selections render
ed did tint lie so much in their length
or hri M :: -l ".i in t. Indian ehhr
eetcvisties which they portrayed.
Kaeh piece wa.s chosen lo set forth
some luoml of victory, disappoint
ment or yearning hope of the Indian.
The young ladies taking part were
well (rained, and so skillfully did they
interpret the various numbers that
the audience had mil the slighlest dif
ficulty in following the changes of
theme, from the daring boast of Ihe
"liig Chiel" to the plaintive strains
of the Indian maiden's lullaby, or the
mourning song of a tribe for a de
parted warrior.
The stage was cleverly decorated
lo suggest an out door Indian abode,
anil t lie costumes added an elahoratc
touch of reality to the scene.
halfIonWple
Tho little god of love does hot
seem to have an arrow in bis quiver
long enough to pierce the hearts of
Bert Cilllesple, th Bill-pound movie
actor lato of tho Keystone comedy
company, and the young lady known
as i.Nollle, the human plum pudding.
When Nellie joined the Foley and
Burk shows last week, with which
Gillespie has been all season, tliu
show people predicted that romance
would weave its magic web around
the half-ton couple and that there
would In time be a "swell" wedding
In "broad" life, which Is somewhat
different from high life. But the
matchmakers scent no orange blos
soms as yet. In fact, Hert and Nellie
do not get along very well together
and "spat" on every occasion, as
result of professional jealousy. Nellie
will ask Bert if he is sick, remarking
that he looks palo and thin. Hert
will come back by saying that ho has
gained two pounds and that he would
weigh more if ho piled on the paint
and powder like some people he
knows and the war Is on. Major
.loe I.eisslng, who is 50 years of ago
and only 20 inches tall, threatens to
pull Gillespie's nose If he doesn't stoji
"picking" on Nellie. and everybody
is wondering.
These interesting people will be In
Medford next week witli the c.'.rnival
to be given for the Groator .Medford
club's patriotic fund. Nino distinct
shows, numerous rides and .10 olhcr
carnival attractions will mak'3 the
event one of unusual interest and it
is predicted that huge crowds will be
In attendance.

is only a salve to pride.
This is not to say that contributions of only one

needed ' ;
For you to give $5. when you can give $25---for
you to give $25 when you can give $100, or to give
100 when you can give .$.)00 is to dodge the heaviest
obligation that this war has laid upon you. .,
For remember, this is not a charity i'this is a
duty.
This is not a time to give because others give.
This is 'a time to give because other? need.
No man can tell you bow much you ought to give.
Except this: that "Over There" the need is so great
that only by cutting to the quick, only by giving all
that you think you can givewmd then more only
by giving not a little of your excess but much of it
only by taking from your own children and from your
wife and from yourself, can the needs of the men who
are fighting for you and the needs of the children of
the men who have died for you be met.
