"Let the weak hearted who aro dreaming of a compro

tlirougli victory, is a traitor.
Tlie enemv peace offensive is likened to the action of
German machine-gun crews in tlie 'sle fighting, when
tney 1 ought and killed Americans until they were sur
rounded, Ihen shouted "Kamcrad."
The mothers of Die American soldiers in France want
the same peace their sons demand. All the courage of
the ancient Hpartau mother is in the hearts of the women
of America.
The object of the Fourth Liberty loan is to bring that
peace a just peace, a righteous" peace, an American

Last Friday, Oct. nth, about 8

done such a good Jcb before that he
wanted me to try my hand at It

occurred 24 years ago the LSth day
of lat February, when I joined him

tlmo between 4 o'clock and 8, owing
altogether aa to what time he could
got off from tho store. The next day
ho phoned over that there would be
a ptrty of six out for supper about 7
o'clock. About that tlmo he came
accompanied by Mrs. Lida L. Mead
ows, and her daughter, Mrs Myrtle
liuteau, Dr. J. I). Kiekert and Mrs.
Carrie M. Ileadlco. After waiting a
few nilnutef! for Mrs. Jiowlett to ar
range the supper she came Into the
parlor and announced that she was
ready to servo supper, whereupon
Mr. Hubbard handed me tho licenso
authorizing me to join Fortunatus
Hubbard and Mrs. I.Ida L. Meadows
In marring?, and as the couple was
getting In position to be joined in
marriage Dr. Itickert jumped to his
feet and asked, "Why not make It a
doublo wedding?" and I informed
him that could be easily arranged it'
he could produce the license, and
while 1 was calling for them he pro-;
duced a roll containing the necessary!
paper and in less time than it takes
to write it Fort Hubbard and Mrs.
Lyda L. Meadows were united in
marriage and Dr. J. D. Itickert and
Airs. Carry ITeadleo made husband
and wife. There wore no guests in
vited altho there were some five or
six of tho boarders present. The
newly wed3 and Mr3. Hubbard's
daughter and your correspondent
wero seated at a table where a feast
had been prepared for the occasion,
and after supper and spending a
while in a social way with music and
singing the company started for their
homes In Medford, and while on the
way met one of our guests coming
from Mc-dford who reported that they
said that they were married so quick
that she did not hardly know wheth
er they were married or not, hut they
had tho marriage certificate to show
that they were. TJio doublo wedding
was a complete surprise to all, not
even (he brides or myself knowing

FACTS ABOUT WOOL
THE NEED for COXREUV ATIO.V Is apparent to all, In the
present acknowledged SHOUT AO!-; of WIOOL and the growing onx
ieiy as to the question of l-'L'TUlli: SUPPLY. This problem lg
ever increasing in Importance because of the tremendous demands
already made, and in immediate prospuct for the QUAKTEUMAS
TKItS department in providingadetiuate clothing and equipment for
an army whoso presont estimated maximum will be fivo million
men. Tlie requirements for such an enorrnoui military establish
ment enn be shown in brief, by the TEXTILE WORLD In Issue of
recent dale, in Die. Ij'.lDV.-ing interesting data. It ha-i been estimat
ed Hint 70 His. of scoured wool per year will bo required for each
m;.n in active service which, on tho baHs of present army estimate.-.,
will call fur 3,-0 million pounds.
It will readily be seen from the standpoint of military necessity
alone, that an unprecedented demand for this commodity has been
orealcd. In aridillon, the- needs of the civilian population, even
though reduced to a minimum, contributes another enormous total
to I hose of the. military estimates. The extent to which restriction
is being placed on c-ivlliiin consumption of wool 13 aptly illustrated
by n recent order from the wir IndiiMtrios board prohibiting the
manufacture of hard laiitiing y.uns of wool until further notice.
With this unprecedented demand on tho world's supply of wool, we
find the following far from reassuring facts:
The United Stales produces annually about 110 million pounds
of scoured wool or about one-third of the wool roqulred for an
army of five million men, which appears to bo the preaent estimat
ed ultimate size o." tlie army. The other sources of supply such as
Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Argentine are cut off on
account of the enormous demands cf tho war department for the
transportation facilities to Trance.
So it Is up to Iho people who stay
at home to have their old clothing
Reclaimed by having them cleaned
and pressed or dyed.
Master service Is our motto.
