"Where your treasure is,—there will
your heart be also.”
I The truth of that statement, made
so many years ago, has been brought
home anew as never before.
i What mother does not know the
I force of it? And at the price of what
infinite pain and suffering, as well as
of pleasure and joy, has she realized
the rest, “there will your heart be
also.”
| The hearts of American mothers—
countless thousands of them—are over
seas. In the trenches along the Aisne,
on the battlefields of Flanders and
Picardy, the treasure of hundreds of
thousands of American mothers Is
daily being offered up. And to those
spots, made sacred by the treasure, go
the hearts of a loyal land.

MISER’S HEART
DEAD TO LIFE JOYS
There is a legend of a certain man,
whose god was gold, and whose pw-
slon during his lifetime was the ac
cumulation of the precious metal.
After years of hoarding the man died,
but even before his final passing his
family jnd friends were astounded to
find all trace of hfs heart gone.
After his death his treasure box was
opened. There, surrounded by his
hoarded dollars, lay the heart, secure
in the presence of its treasure.
To American mothers no more des
picable man could be pictured. For his
treasure, stored in the dark places of
his possessions, might have saved
many days of strife and sorrow. And
his heart was dead to all that the best
in manhood stands for.
I
Of far gentler sort was the heart of
that little mother, type of thousands
of American mothers whose all has
been laid on the altar. There will be
a legend about those mothers in some
remotely future date. And the light
will shine around such as she.
“I didn't expect to sew any more,”
said a little, bent old lady, who asked
If she might have work to do. ”1
thought my sewing days,were over, for
Joe took care of me.”
And there her eyes glistened and
she straightened back as far as pos
sible the stooped, narrow shoulders.
“But he is a soldier now. Of course,
he sends me the money to live on. But
1 I can't buy Liberty Bonds with that,”
and she smiled with a satisfaction
which bespoke decision regarding her
next move.
I "MY HEART’S
OVER THERE NOW’’
"You see, I am getting the sewing
to do, so I can pay for my bonds. For
my boy is fighting over there, and I
can't have him need things I can help
to buy for him and all those other
I
mothers’ boys.
I
"You see, my heart's over there
now."
, And her treasure, meagre to the
vanishing point almost, is following
it loyally and bravely.
| Oregon, mothers, can you do less?
Your hearts are overseas, and your
treasures must follow. The Govern
ment, through its Fourth Liberty Ix>an,
( offers you a special opportunity to
' send your treasure following in most
effective fashion.
Every Liberty Bond we buy means
so much of the war paid for and put
out of the way. Every dollar we offer
I to the Government, to put Into Its war
fund, bespeaks an earlier return for
our treasure and a brighter day for our
land.
Who lends generously and willingly
| in this fight, gives manifold, for she
gives when the need is sorest, and ’he
promised return is great.

On top of this the farmsr «et th«
pace for the reet of America with his
subscriptions to war funds. It was
the agricultural districts that first re
ported their quotas oversubscribed
in the Third Liberty Loan.
Doubtless it wtll be the farmers
who first report "Over The Top” in
the Fourth Liberty Loan, in spite of
the fact that the loan will be twice
the size of any previous.
This sounds easy, from superficial
consideration, since the Third Loan
1 oame at a time when t’.e farmer
needed his money to put in and har-
1 vest his summer crops, and was with
out receipts since last summer and
fall, and had been called upon in
the Second Loan as well.
But it would not be a simple mat
ter, even if the Fourth Loan were not
larger than the Third, because th«
government is calling for increased
acreage on all cropB, and especially
on wheat, the great Western staple,
. to provide for the army of five mil
lion American troops with which it is
expected to crush the Hun utterly

There is least of all a doubt thal
the American farmer will lag in his
response to the call of the Fourtb
Liberty Loan because of his increased
responsibilities in other directions.
It was Oregon, whose orchards,
farms and cattle overshadow all lies
other wealth, which first hoisted ths
Third Liberty Loan Honor Flag in
the West, and it was that othei
purely agricultural state, Iowa, which
barely nosed Oregon out of first plac«
in the national race for the honor.
Both Oregon and Iowa will be ths
special marks for all other states to
shoot at lu the Fourth Liberty Loan
race. A dark horse probably will win
the acclaim due the first stats
to fill its quota.
The answer of the nation to the
American sized task of raising the
American-sized Fourth Liberty Ixian
must be prompt and overwhelming.
With American troops glorying in the
laurels wrested from the boasted
best trained fighting men of the
world, those at home cannot return s
less emphatic response to the call
upon them.
