HELP SALVATION
Take it from r.io the Salvation
Army is delivering the poods over
fiere. Right up la tho thick of It,
Jclcan to "Xo Man's" land, any weath
er, any hour of tho day or night you
till find a Salvation Army laasio or
no of their men, giving ua coffee
nd doughnut?!, or a word of cheer
o the wounded and dying. And they
on't blow about It either. If you
feet a chance to hnlp tho Salvation
Army ovor there, do it for ua over
jhero."
I This is an extract from a letter
written by a Medford boy to his par
ents in this city. And there have
ibeen hundreds of other lottcrs sent
to Jackson county sinro war was de
clared, with similar pia'so for this
.splendid organization. Thero Is not
a home with a service flag In tho
rwlndow that won't endorse this stato-
iincnt.
Well tho chance to help tho Salva
tion Army has now come, for tho
United War Work drive starts nrxt
(Monday, IN'ovembcr 1 1 til, and the
Salvation Army Is one of the seven
worthy organizations which is to
benefit by that drive. In fact if this
drive should fail, the Salvation Army
with Its splendid record and its high
capacity for reconstruction service,
'would have to discontinue its foreign
relief and its devoted and sa'if-sacrl-'ficing
members would be forved to
concludo that what they had done
;was not appreciated by the people
over here.
You don't want the Salvation
Army lassie to stop handing out hot
coffee and doughnuts do you, for
even after peace has been signed,
thousands of Yanks will be on for
eign soil and more in no?d of good
American grub and good American
emiles than ever before.
! Of course you don't. Then get
ready to do your very best bit, when
the solicitors slart out next Monday.
Show the Salvation Army that you
are he hind them till the boys come
marching home mako it big!

wara, a leading lusiness man of
Tokio and an authority on social
questions. He contrasts the condl

of Japan live vifh tlie ononiiou:? pro

tho ostentation of tho countless war
millionaires a social irritant which
is eausiiifC tlio tlu'orifn of western
agitators to work on tho minds of the
Japaiifso wajiw earners.
.Mr. Fujiwara thinks that Japanese
skilled workmen hae already acquir
ed the ideas of the working people
of western countries. Ho adds:
"These ideas, unfortunately mostly
iu a wrong sense, are steadily work
in?; upon tho minds of our working
people, especially those in big cities
like Tokio, Osaka, etc. lio continue?:
"Leaders of tho nation are therefore
slronKly urcd to adopt soma mea
sures for relief of tho general dis
content so that disaster may be
avoided. Should this Rcneral discon
tent of tho working class be loft
without remedy, wo may have more
serious outbursts and those may
bring about a catastrophe to the em
pire.'' Mr. Fujiwara urges that Japanese
stp-tesnn-n learn a les.-on from Amer

handling of national proolcm?, espec
ially food problems. Improvement

The deadly depth charge which is

Swift & Company
Has Not "Jest Growed"
Swift & Company, in fifty years cf well ordered growth,
has becomo one of tho great national services because
it has .learned to do something for the American people
which they needed to have clone for them, in the way
in which they preferred to have it done.
It has met each successive demand, in the changing
conditions of national life, by getting good meat to
increasing millions effectively, efficiently, economically,
and expeditiously.
Tlie Swift & Company packing plants, refrigerator
cars, car routes, branch houses, organization, and person
nel of today arc the practical solutions, born of practical
experience, to tho food problems of a half a century.
Because of all cf thess elements working in cor
relation and unison, Swift & Company is able to supply
more and better meat to more peoplo than would have been
possible otherwise, at a net profit per pound cf rnsat so low
(a fraction of c. cent) that the consumer pries is practically
unaffected.
Strip away any portion of thi3 vast, smooth-running
human machine, and you make a large part of the meat
supply uncertain, lose the benefit of half a century of
fruitful experience, and scatter the intelligent energies of
men who havo devoted a lifo work toward meeting the
needs of a nation in ono vital field.
