"IMS APPEAL MADE To tho People of JackBon County: The cx'ecutlvp conlmlttoe of the Jack son'County War Savings organization is pleased fo nnnounco to tho public that with June, 28thwhlcli date has been' degnatoilby tho president, National War Savings day, the Inten sive features of -tho. National War Savings campaign going on for tho past six months, will cease. The nationnl committee, believing tlrtit tho fiHt two of tho three-fold purposes to be accomplished by the War Saving campaign, namely: war consciousnoss, personal responsibility and thrlft.-have been attained by the months of spreading tho war sav ings gospel, now order that the third objective repurchase of war stumps be "put "orver the top" by the taking of wholesale orders. from'our citizens for War Sayings stamps to be deliv ered and paid , tW as desired during tho rest of the year Instead of pur chasing In retail fashion as hereto fore. In tho past six months ten percent only of tho two billion dollar issue of War Savings stamps authorized by congress, have been- taken by the American people, leaving the ninety percent to be placed in the following seven months. Under the original plan this seemed practically Impos sible, hence the change. We are simply up against a new Liberty Loan a Liberty Loan in which every citizen can participate to' tho extent of his or her financial ability. The maximum amount for any one investor is placed at one thousand dollars and the minimum at five dollars, maturity value; a short torm government bond carrying the unheard ot option of cashing at any time should necessity require. This county's quota is two-thirds of the apportionment of the last Lib erty Loan, namely: Two hundred and fifty-eight thousand six hundred and sixty-six dollars $258,060.00). We have sold, In round numbers, seventy- six thousand dollars of tho issue leav. lng For us to dispose of in the present campaign one hundred and eighty- two thousand six hundred dollars. To accomplish this the financial resour ces of the county must bo appealed to. Ab tho plans for tho campaign - mo brot Into action, 'more and more of, our eitizena will be called upon to assist the committee. The best help can only ho used iu this work, and if perchanco somo work Is assigned you, it Is hocause of your fitness and loyalty that you have boon chosen aud the committee assumes that none of us at homo will refuse, to do their ut most to back up our valient army at the seat ot Tvar.

SCENE FROM "JOAN OF PLATTSBURG," STARRING MABEL NOR- i ii WAND, OPENS A TWO DAY RUN AT THE RIALT0 TONIGHT " i isi 17 T MK MAEEL NORMAND in, JOAN of PLATTSBURG To the Editor: There is a station in Central I'oint thitt is buying for a Portland cream ery and (laying it is said, a slight margin more than our local cream erics, paying tlie same for butter fat but giving a higher per rentage. The inference with sonic would be that our local creameries arc not doing a straight business. Now, I want to have a word with the people who are patronizing this institution. Do you realize what yo'u may be doing? Of course tlie agent at Central Point anil tho creamery be represents have a riuhl to do what thcv arc doing, and we have a right, and should consider what may happen if our dairymen would desert our local creameries in such numbers as would force then: out. of business. Then we would be compelled to take the price that Portland chose lo give, and stirelv it is needless to remind you how such n situation would affect the dairy interests here, ami mark you -the eoudilion wmibl he perinanent, for no man would be reckless enough to invest in a busi ness flint had been ruined by Mie community. 1 do not know the de sign of the Portland creamery. I do know this, for 1 have known it done in the middle west big cream - cries lucre, wicked hv nmitii(iititni, j liy overbidding liy n sniitli imiru'in: would i'ilch (lie territory of the small country creameries and when these! latter were dead, they proceeded to i et, their investment, hack with inter-! estand it all came out id' the dairy-; men. It' you think on arc not ef tin;; a fair deal from the local cream eries, do as 1 have done, send a sam ple of your cream to the O. A. ('., or tlie Talent station, where, a compe tent and disinterested party will iiivc a true analysis of it, and you will likely find, as have, that our local creameries are doui a straight busi ness. Local interest and pride dictate that, we should stand by our cream eries here while they deal fairly they take their share of our local pub he burdens. They contribute iu (putt; a decree to the business in tt rests of our valley and if any cus tomer feels nyifrievftd, they are eas ily accessible to conference all of which , Portland lacks decidedly. In closiniil J want to nay that I have not and never have had any financial in terest, in n creamery, any further than selling litem the product of n small dairy, and n? not aware that I know anybody connected with a 'crcninorv. Tint onlv object. I have i i view is to arouse our dairymen fo tlie possibility that unless we exercise wisdon,, the future niav brim; us trouble. ,7. II. lA'MAlflt. Table lioek. June A.
