W. S. S. BIG DRIVE
Inspired with the same patriotic J
enthusiasm that has marked the suc
cess of all the war fund drives In the
Medford district twenty-five optimis
tic Thrift Stamp solicitors started the
Medford canvass this morning confi
dent of a record-breaking campaign.
The present campaign will close
Friday night with monster mass
meetings in every school dstriot In
the Unltod States and Its possessions
from Alaska to the Phlllppnes, and
Chairman Henry Hart of the JackBon
icounty district has completed ar
rangements for enthusiastic meetings
thruout the county. Assistant Chair
man W. F. Isaacs Is in charge of the
Medford district and the following
solicitors who rcportod for duty this
morning assure the success of the
local campaign:
Solicitors for City '
Ralph 'Bardwell, Myron E. Root.
Wig Ashpole, Harry AVortman, Joe
Brown, C. I. Hutchinson, Sid Drown,
Ray Moran, Paul Janney, A. H. Mil
lor, W. Y. Crowson, Jonas Wold,
Frank Elliott, J. W. Wakefield, J. W.
Dressier, Sam Richardson, F. W. Hol
11s, L. J. Miksche, C. M. Kidd, John
C. Mann, B. W. Paul, W. Hi. Walker,
O. O. Alenderfer, J. J. Huchter, Corn
ing -Cenley, C. C. McCurdy.
The present campaign is the result
of an order from Frank A. Vanderllp
national chairman of the Thrift
Stamp movement and vill result in
the entire thrift stamp quota of the
country being raised ly next Friday
night when patriotic mass meetings
thruout the nation will celebrate the
completion of the drive.
Refusals to Ho TJsted
The "clean up" campaign has been
most carefully arranged and at the
close of the canvass the various com
mittees will have a carefully prepared
record of all thrift stamp savers as
well as those who have failed to en
list In tho movement and the evident
reason for their faluro to help the
cause. Each solicitor is required to
turn in either a signed pledge card to
buy specified amounts of thrift
stamps at given times or a yellow in
dex card bearing the name of the per
son solicited, the excuse given for not
subscribing and the solicitor's opinin
of the refusal. These cards will be'
filed for future reference and euch
case investigated as it may demand.
Whllo It is not the deBlro to force
anyone to sign up for Thrift stamps
there are few people who cun not
ibuy at least one fivo-dollar Thrift
stamp before the first of tho your and
the govornmont wants a record of ull
such cases.
IJmlt Club Organised
In conjunction with the soliciting
campaign for pledges of monthly pur
chases of stamps a national move
ment known as the Limit club -has
been organized. Any purchaser of
$1000 worth of savings certificates Is
eligible to membership and is entitled
to wear a special Limit club button.
Fred Strlpp has heon appointed chair
man .of the Limit club In Jackson
county and is meeting with splendid
(success in his campaign.
Jackson County's original Thrift
stamp quota was $258,000 of which
approximately $87,000 has been rais
ed and Chairman Hart and Mr. Isaacs
are relying on the patriotism shown
in every war fund movement of the
past to 1)0 ropeated before tho close
of tho present campaign. Chairman
Henry HaU receiyed the following
.telegram this morning:
Washington, D. C, June 24, 191S.
As county chairman of War sav
ings you are expected to win success
in June campaign just as we expect
our hoys in France to win victory lu
this war period. One hundred per
cent Americanism for your country
should mean .nothing less than one
hundred per cent pledged war savors.
I am confident you will succeed.
F. A. Vanderllp.

Half Hie American nation win hi

sends two million or more soiuicia
to Europe.
Only nboiit half the actual iirmy

With 2,.'i(MI,(KI0 men in Europe, a
similar number will bo needed i:i
America und the outlying possessions.
Ten workers are needed to kee,i
each soldier armed, fed and clothed.
This would mean .r)0,000,000 men,
women and children working to aup

On Hie basis of 110,000,000 popu

And Hie other half will be imlircct'v

These figures give Ainoricnns a

Keep Faith With Your Boy "Over There"
When your boy was so little that all the world was a foreign country
to him, he trusted you to take care of him. You sent him to school
and to play and on your little errands, and with implicit faith he did
your bidding.
Now we have sent your boy or your neighbor's boy out into a foreign
land, into terrors that he cannot even know and his faith has not fal
tered. He knows we will do our part if he does his.
Pledge yourself to buy War Savings Stamps on or before
National War Savings Day, June 28th.
Saving to help our sons is not to be called by the ugly name of duty
or sacrifice. It is love's blessed privilege.
Are we keeping the faith? Are we scrimping and saving and giving to
help our boys do this thing that humanity has asked of them, and to
help them come back to us sane and whole? Arcjwc doing not only
our bit, but all we can?
