A WAR CHEST FOR DRIVES.
Tll K .Mil 1 1 In mine has I i'e(iienl l.v called al rent ion lo uie
A need of a war chest; to
of all war activities. Ashland has already inaugurated
such ;i fund ami undoubtedly .Medford will be organized in
time for 1 lie next call. '
The fund is raised by monthly payments of all citizens
in some cities a day's wajjes or income a month is do
nated; in other places the basis of contributions is an as
sessment upon incomes.
The Journal Press of St. ('loud, Minn., describes the
war chest fund being raised there as follows:
".Those having an annual income, up to $1,500, one per
cent; income from $1,500 lo .flOO up, 2 per cent; from
$'J,.r)()() up, 15 iter cent.
"I low much would this bring in?
" It is estimated this would give St. Cloud a total fund
fur the year of $70,000.
"J low would it be used ?
"It would take .are of We'd Cross. Y. M. 0. A., K. of
C, Salvation Armv and other
"'Why a War Chest?
"To make onlv one drive
will have to be a campaign
requiring a great, deal of work, energy and time of many
busy l iconic.
"The man who has an income of $1,000 would pay $10
a year, or about !K)c. a mouth.
"The man who has an income of $2,000 would pay $-10 a
ycai'i or $)!.::' a month, and
would pay $!), or $7.;0 a month.
"This would be his entire
rious funds and would give our boys at the front and in
training the benefits and protection furnished by al!
these societies.
"Those who do not have to go across will surely be
glad to come across with this small sum.
"The War Chest is a patriotic fund furnished by loyal
Americans who are glad to give for making the world
safe and backing up our soldiers."

American troops will be in France July 1 comes as a shock.
How could it happen? Did not Senator Hitchcock of the
senate military affairs committee inform the country a few
months ago, that it was a physical impossibility to land
half that number?
Jiishop O'Coiinell of the 'Methodist Episcopal church,
who has recently returned from a visit to the front says
that since he returned, lit; is informed that everything had
gout! wrong, that we had a iniesrable handful of troops
over there, badly provided for and that we were not doing
our pi'.rt well. Jf this is true, the people in France don't
know it, says the bishop.

that boys and (lirls who hav oppor

urop out of school and still recelvo

uruliiK that all boys and Birls. remain

year If they deslro credit for the

I'arents aro urged that they keep
students in school. until tho closing
day. This Is not meant to discourage
boys and girls from seeking posltons
but it is felt that the educational
needs are as urgent as anything dur

Notes from tho miscellaneous de
partment at headquarters in Seattle.
Tho women of America as they
work day after day making surgical
dressings, sowing on hospital gar
ments and knitting socks and sweat
ers, form a part of; the great army
of dofonso against the unspeakable
evil which threatens tho world. This
reserve army, like any other army,
to ho most efficient must lay aside all
Individual opinions and preferences
and even the habits of many years.
1 1 ore a peculiar thing appears. It
might be expected that in all this
mighty army of men and women, old
and young, somo would rebel and
refuse to submit to necessary rules,
hut is It hot young blood that refuses
to get into lino Wo aro forced to
report, reluctantly, to the contrary.
While our young men go into the
camps and cantonments and to the
front, submitting themselves to every
dolail of military discipline and our
young women mako surgical dress
ings and hospital garments, every
fold and hem und tapo according to
rules laid down, how is it that the
Mothors of Israel can refuse to do
tliolr part except in their own way
and according to their own fancy?
X11 matter If they did knit for the
boys In 'lit and their families ever
since. Conditions to bo met today
aro entirely different and ull equip
ment must suffer cliungo to corres
pond. Tlieso good women will sure
ly get In line, but they arc slow about
it.
