Oh, maybe you're guilty and intiy-

Our thrlftlng Is fickle.
It runs In n trlrklo.
Wo plcklo a nickel to kIvo us a

And hnnd ourselves thanks and n

And holding enough yet without
"Hold! enough!"-lng,
Whllo womnn still poses
And shown us her hoses,
All silken and sheer to excuse her

At tho ond of 1he day, If you're

Ask this, "Have I thrifted as much

MEDFOh'D'S most important oontTihiilion to the war.
outside of the man-power we furnish is the lift'
( irons work mippliod by our woman power. While 0111
boys have been drilling at cneainpinonts or helping hurl
bn'ek the Huns in Franco, our women have been busy mak
ing surgical dressings for the wounded and comforts for
the boys in the trenches. An immense amount of work
has been done by the comparatively few women who pa
triotcially give their time and energy, but much more
must be done, now that the Yanks are on the firing line.
Each Ked Cross chapter is allotted the amount of work
it must turn out for the welfare of the army -and navy.
With the increase of the army, with the casualty list al
ready totalling a thousand a day and only started, the ne
cessity of filling the quota allotted is apparent to all.
There must be no failure to supply it. Medford must not
be listed among the slacker communities.
The local Ued Cross chapter cannot continue work
without additional money to purchase the raw materials
needed. It is up to the rest of us, who neither fight nor do
war work, and we comprise about )t per cent of our popu
lation, to furnish this nionev. It is estimated that at least
$871 a. month must be assured to fill quotas already al
lotted to the .chapter and it is probable that the require
ments will be still greater in the near nitiire. Ihey must
be if we are to do our part in the winning the war.
f There is no "graft," in handling the K'ed Cross com
paratively no overhead expense. The labor is donated.
The money is used in purchasing materials, which are sup
plied at cost by the National Uerl Cross.. The allot
ments of the Jackson County unit requires. $ IU29. 12 a
month, "half of which must be furnished by Medford and
its auxiliary units.
On Monday a drive will begin to raise these funds
and if you are not a slacker, you will cheerfully and gladly
contribute what you can monthly. The women give their
time the least vou can do is to give vour nionev to pur
chase materials for them to work upon. So be ready to
subscribe when called upon or better still, send your
subscript ion in at. once.

little vacation rejuvenation. For this
new Fn I rbnnks production, which
opened ut tho Pago yesterday, Ih
saturated with laughs, plus u few
thrills, and examples gnloro of
"Doug's" acrobatic vim.
This now Artcraft picture gives
tho popular Fairbanks a now charac
terization. Instend of the cowboy
with his armory of weapons, a genial
society Mr. Fix-It, or a detective.
"Doug" Is a daring, Impulslvo, re
sourceful newspaper reporter, wbo.-e
peculiar methods, emphasized by vig
orous action, win lor him fame and a
bride.
Tho Fairbanks 'grin and the Fair
hanks nthletie prowess are very much
in evidence. Ho vaulta over flower

who never licfore had talked with a
newspaper man. then, n tribute
to his prowess, the city editor ends

COMMUNICATION.
To Hie Kditor:
The order of Secretary MVAdoo
forbidding garnishment of tile wiiges
of railroad employes will likely be
criticized, but having1 for some years
been a member uf the supreme court
bar at Washington, II. ('., I mn able to
state that thi- order is not a new rul
ing or innovation made for political
effect, for it has Kmir been the rule
that money in the hand of the gov
ernment is not subject to attachment
or garnishment. In mv praeii e at1
Wn-lnn-loii I had collections to make
from employes of the government at
times, mid the method followed was to
make efforts to collect from the debt
or, and if. after repeated efforts, the
deht was no; paid, then I he matter
w;is piken up with the chief of the
department in which the debtor was
employed, and the debtor was notified
by the chief of the department of the
el;im, and lli.'t it cither must he pnid
or the dUehare of the debtor would
follow. So that il appear- Ihnt tho
rn!e is not new, but ha-- simply been
ex'cmlcd to include new -ervieo.
