'lllllllllllllllllll - ---'-----hhl .On November 11 the American peo- Dl* will start a one week's drive to rajse the largest amount of money ever given outright by any people in the history of the world. The drive will be a new thing under the sun. For the first time Protes- fnntl, Cathollecs and Jews, forgetting all thelr differences, will line up shoul- der to shoulder, welding their individ- yal, ,,Ql‘zlnlzntlon,a together in their eommon,_ devotion to the boys.in'the cantonments- ‘and- over . there,. This amalgamation“of the seven great agen- ¢elel engaged ‘m ‘war work s one of the fire' developmnénts’ which have been hrought’ About by "fhe war and under fhc ‘wise guidance of President Wilson. ’l‘}m seven organizations which to- ‘other will make this united appeal are the'Y, M, G A, Y, W. C. A, Na- tfonal’ Cathollc War Councell and K. of .C., the Jewish Welfare Board, the War Camp Community ; Service; ' the American Library Assoclation and the Salvation Army. Each of them wiil need funds this Fall ; each had planned & separate canipaign for support. Now, acting on the suggestion of the President’s letter of September 5, the seven ‘campalgns will* be rolled into one. - The American people will be spared the burden of seven separate appeals, and the nation will have an opportunity to demonstrate splendidly that men and women of all creeds at home can work together, as men of all creeds over there are fighting and dying together, Dr: Jobu R. Mott, whom President Wilson has- spoken of as one of the ablest and most useful men of his gen- epadlon,. has ‘heen selected Director Gqperal of the drive. It Is Interesting to. note that Dr. Mott's name was placed in nomination by John G, Agar of the Natlonal Catholic War Councll and seconded by Mortimer L. Schiff of the Jewish Welfare Board, The gen- eral committee having the campaiga in - charge contalns such well known names as Raymond B, Fosdick, Chalr- man of the Commission on Training Camp Actlvities; George W. Perkins, Chafrman of the Finance Committee ot the U. 8. Steel Corporation; James F. Phelan of Hornblower and Weeks; Honorable Myron T. Herrick, former ambaseador to. France; Cleveland H. Dodge, George Gordon Battle, Mrs. Henry P. Davigon and Frank A. Van- derlip, president of the Natlonal City Bank. In every city, county and town the campaign will be In charge of the big- gest men of the community. Together these seven organizations represent a work that s staggering in its proportions. They have more than 15,000 uniformed workers, standing shoulder to shoulder with the boys ev- ery step of the way from home to the front line trenches. They operate more than 3,600 bulldings and ship 500 tons of supplies: to the boys In France ev- ery .week. ' Fifteen miles of film set sail for the other side each week un- der their direction, and the regular weekly attendance of soldlers and sall- ops at their motion picture shows is iiore ‘thah 2,500,000. The Bibles fur- nished to the boys since the war broke out would, If piled ome on another, make a pile more than twenty miles high, - .. . “Morale,” sald Napoleon, “Is as oth- er'factors In-war as three to one.” By which he meant that one man who is kept contented and happy Is better than three men who are discouraged and homesick. ¥t is the business of these seven great agencies fo heip maintain morale. They are keeplng up the fine fighting edge of our boys, and by thelr ministrations, helping to put added power Into our army and navy and so hasten the hour of victory when they will bring our boys home again. - It 18 predicted by -nationnl leaders that thls‘fegt(\lcmq drive will “go over th In & larger way than any seampaign that has preceded it s PG "CURFEW NOW RINGS ONE HOUR EARLIER The curfew will hereafter ring at o’clock instead of 9 o’clock iu the eveulng. it being the custom to ring the warning an hour earlier during the winter months. All children who come under the ordinance should be made to observe the ringing of the bell, and €hief of Police Esgler says the ordinance is to.be tnforced. SOLDIERS HARVESTING CROPS AT CAMP DIX (By United Press.) - Camp Dix, N. J., Oct. 16.—It’s har- vest time here, and the crops from the demonstration garden of the na- tional war garden -commission are being taken to cover. The demon- stration garden has. demonstrated that the soldier can raise his-own food to a great extent and that “food f. o. 'b. the kitchen door” fis a valuable (asset to any home or camp, Estimates announced at a harvest luncheon show that despite a late| start the crop value will be $25,000. At this luncheon were Gen. Hugh L. Scott and staff; Charles Lathrop, Pack, president of the ngtional war garden commission; Col. Edmond Tompkins an Col. H. E. Wilkins, New York; E. L. D. Seymour of the foreign bureau of the committee 'on public information; 8. W. Hartley of Cleve- land, representing the motor trans- port service; W. S. Tyler, federal food administrator for New Jersey; Col. J. E. MeclIntosh; Col. Norris Slayton and Maj. R. C. Griswold of the quarter-master's office; Maj. Charles R. Van Etten of the in- spector general’s office. All these men are tremendously in- terested in the demonstration garden that Capt. E. V. Champlin and Lieut. John F. Bonner have made possible. With 5,000,000 men in the army and at a cost of 40 cents a day to feed a soldier, food valued at $2,000,000 will haye to be handled every twenty- four hours. Indications are that the fine show- ing here means that hundreds of acres will, be put under cultivation at various camps next year. In ad- dition to the vegetable crops, 481,000 pounds of hay has been gathered. There are 300,000 ears of sweet corn, 60,000 pounds of string beans, 480,000 pounds of pomtoe!
